3 December 2020 Charlize Theron I grew up on Bette Davis movies, and Marlene Dietrich, Marilyn Monroe.
3 December 2020 Marlee Matlin The only thing I can’t do is hear. I can drive, I have a life with four kids, I work on TV, I do movies, so the deafness question, is it that they want to know because, what? Not sure.
3 December 2020 Bill Condon Actually, I loved Chucky. It’s one of the strangest movies I’ve ever seen.
3 December 2020 LL Cool J The person that made me want to make movies, and the reason I do films, is Bruce Lee. He was an incredible actor, and he had a lot of charisma. Handsome, action, you know, everything was there. I loved Bruce Lee.
3 December 2020 Daniel H. Wilson In movies and in television the robots are always evil. I guess I am not into the whole brooding cyberpunk dystopia thing.
3 December 2020 Tom Hooper American movies are often very good at mining those great underlying myths that make films robustly travel across class, age, gender, culture.
3 December 2020 Walt Disney Movies can and do have tremendous influence in shaping young lives in the realm of entertainment towards the ideals and objectives of normal adulthood.
3 December 2020 Richard King I’m not impressed by someone’s degree… I’m impressed by them making movies.
3 December 2020 Tommy Lee Jones I have worked on very good movies that have been buried, and I’ve worked on some resounding mediocrities that have been paraded through the marketplace like they were masterpieces.
3 December 2020 Nicolas Cage I care about the connection with the audience. Film is such a powerful medium. Movies can change the way people think.
3 December 2020 John Cusack The movies have got more corporate, they’re making fewer movies in general, and those they are making are all $200-$300m tent-pole releases that eat up all the oxygen.
3 December 2020 Guy Pearce I’ve been asked to do action-oriented movies in the past and they just haven’t been right for me.
3 December 2020 Hugh Jackman I’m doing ‘Les Miserables,’ the movie. I’ve done a lot of musicals and a lot of movies, and I know there are not a lot of people in Hollywood who have been down those two paths so I’ve been like, ‘Come on, let’s do a movie/musical.’
3 December 2020 Ralph Fiennes Going to the movies was a big event in my youth. My father would be the initiator – he’d have me put on a jacket to see a film.
3 December 2020 Clive Owen You go back to those films of the ’40s and ’50s and hear the dialogue, the way the people played off each other – the wordplay. I think we’ve really lost that in movies.
3 December 2020 Megan Fox I still like the run and gun action movies and how truly dangerous it can be to make these films.
3 December 2020 Gabriel Byrne I don’t think we’re living in great times for movies, to tell you the truth.
3 December 2020 Danny Boyle I love watching the Bond movies obviously and I grew up reading the books as a kid. I’ve always loved them because of that.
3 December 2020 LL Cool J What I like to do is just make good music, good movies, hopefully perform a good show full of energy and just have some fun.
3 December 2020 Denzel Washington I wasn’t allowed to go to movies when I was kid my father was a minister. 101 Dalmatians and King of Kings, that was the extent of it.
3 December 2020 Halle Berry If you really want to be competitive in today’s market you have to be in movies that make money.
3 December 2020 Lawrence Kasdan I loved Alien, and I loved Carrie, and I loved The Exorcist – those were big movies for me. They were just brilliantly done, and unusual, and they all took horror to some new place.
3 December 2020 Jason Aldean I’m very particular about the kind of music that I record and sing, and it would be the same way about the kind of movies that I would do.
3 December 2020 Bill Condon There’s no question that Whale’s movies are classics. They were wonderful, and successful.
