3 December 2020 Jane Fonda My childhood was influenced by the roles my father played in his movies. Whether Abraham Lincoln or Tom Joad in the ‘Grapes of Wrath,’ his characters communicated certain values which I try to carry with me to this day.
3 December 2020 Kate Beckinsale I think what’s dangerous about being an actor who does action movies is you think, ‘Well, I can totally handle myself now.’ But if my opponent didn’t know the other half of the routine, I don’t know how well I’d do.
3 December 2020 Vincent Cassel Cronenberg’s a lot of fun, and that a lot of people don’t know watching his movies. He doesn’t take himself seriously. He’s still reinventing himself.
3 December 2020 Ernie Harwell I’ve found that if you wear a beret, people think you’re either a cabdriver or a producer of dirty movies.
3 December 2020 Quentin Tarantino Movies are not about the weekend that they’re released, and in the grand scheme of things, that’s probably the most unimportant time of a film’s life.
3 December 2020 Christina Ricci The movies I made early on may not have been great, but they were all commercially successful.
3 December 2020 Joseph Gordon-Levitt There’s an absolute prejudice that good movies are dramas and comedies are more dismissable. But I couldn’t disagree more.
3 December 2020 Fiona Shaw I think America becomes more disgruntled by going to the movies and having an endlessly good time at them.
3 December 2020 Adam Sandler I’m not looking to get away from anything. I like what I’ve done. I like what I get to do and I enjoy working with my friends. I loved those movies, but this is incredible.
3 December 2020 Amber Heard When I go into making a movie, personally, I don’t try to bring other pieces of movies with me.
3 December 2020 Laura Dern The really courageous and bold thing is to make movies about human behaviour.
3 December 2020 Joel Silver Well, I haven’t really been able to shoot in California for a while. Little movies yeah, but the big movies we can’t shoot there. It’s just a shame that Arnold Schwarzenegger can’t deliver on this level.
3 December 2020 Guy Ritchie I got into film-making because I was interested in making entertaining movies, which I felt there was a lack of.
3 December 2020 Vincent Cassel When you see violence in movies in general, it’s very quick and painless, which isn’t what it’s like.
3 December 2020 Seth Rogen I don’t make the best movies in the world, but at times, I do feel like I’m adding something to the cinematic community.
3 December 2020 Jeff Bridges I’d maybe done about 12 movies when I decided that this was what I was going to do.
3 December 2020 Josh Radnor A lot of times, we’re just sold these movies that are really cynically conceived and marketed, and they just want you there opening weekend, before everybody finds out it’s not so good.
3 December 2020 Mindy Kaling People talk about mumblecore but I prefer bumblecore, hyper-realistic bee movies about how bees really are.
3 December 2020 Christopher Walken I’ve made movies that we’re very successful that we’re a complete surprise, and I’ve made movies that I thought we’re going to be very successful that, you know.
3 December 2020 Diablo Cody I do not quote my own movies. I think I would be pretty insufferable if I did.
3 December 2020 Nicolas Roeg Movies are not scripts – movies are films they’re not books, they’re not the theatre.
3 December 2020 Jason Reitman I’m not going to have a perfect career. It’s better to be Billy Wilder and make lots of movies and have five or six great ones than to make so few movies that when you make a bad one it crushes you.
3 December 2020 John Cusack I was never into the popular school or clique or anything. Then I started doing movies when I was in high school, so then I got popular. Then the girls paid attention to you who didn’t before.
3 December 2020 Adam Sandler I do love the films I’ve done in the past. I work hard in my movies and my friends work hard and we’re trying to make people laugh and I’m very proud of that.
