3 December 2020 Roger Ebert A lot of people just go to movies that feed into their preexisting and not so noble needs and desires: They just go to action pictures, and things like that.
3 December 2020 David Mamet Movies were never an art form, they were entertainment. It just evolved into an art form from there, and it’s still evolving in different ways.
3 December 2020 Zoe Kazan I find playwriting to be incredibly difficult compared to screenwriting. Part of it is that I grew up watching movies and not watching plays.
3 December 2020 Daniel Craig Sexiness, particularly in movies, is the chess game in the ‘Thomas Crown Affair’. It’s, it’s, I don’t know, but Faye Dunaway comes up a lot in that thinking. It’s the subtlety of sexiness. The moment you try to be sexy, then it’s not.
3 December 2020 Tim Robbins I don’t think people have been able to deal with the fact that African American filmmakers can make movies about life and relationships.
3 December 2020 Tippi Hedren I could really use a corporate sponsor. People think that because you’re in the movies, you’re rich. I have allocated all my resources to Shambala so the animals will always be safe.
3 December 2020 Vanessa Paradis The movies and the parts I’m being offered are becoming better and better.
3 December 2020 Jonah Hill Besides the fact that I make movies, there’s nothing interesting about my life at all, unfortunately.
3 December 2020 Yann Martel Cinema is visually powerful, it is a complete experience, reaches a different audience. It’s something I really like. I like movies.
3 December 2020 Jean Claude Van Damme My body looks like 30 but my face looks like 50. But I cannot walk bare-chested in the streets. I like to do these movies to challenge myself physically.
3 December 2020 Ang Lee After making several tragic movies in a row, I was looking to do a comedy, and one without cynicism.
3 December 2020 Jodie Foster So, yes, there’s nothing I love more than listening to directors talk about their movies.
3 December 2020 Alex Winter The thing is there have been American movies that are similar to Solaris, like Alien had a lot of things that are similar, although it’s also got the horror element.
3 December 2020 Ang Lee I look at American movies, the big muscles, and try to apply that to Chinese film-making.
3 December 2020 Harvey Fierstein Movies are all about plot. Theater, even if it’s story heavy, it’s about ideas.
3 December 2020 Antonio Banderas Making movies is difficult and you get disorientated sometimes – even when you’re working with fantastic talent.
3 December 2020 Chris Evans I’ve managed to do movies and still keep a lifestyle where I can go to ballgames, go to a grocery store like everybody else.
3 December 2020 Will Smith I think with movies I am really connecting to the Joseph Campbell idea of the collective unconscious.
3 December 2020 Mary Schmich The movies we love and admire are to some extent a function of who we are when we see them.
3 December 2020 Emmanuelle Beart I don’t always see my movies right away. And there are some I haven’t seen at all. Sometimes that bothers the directors, so I’m obliged to see them.
3 December 2020 Alice Cooper Why be boring? Have some fun. Rock shows should be like movies: I don’t go to a movie hoping it’ll change my life.
3 December 2020 Vincent Cassel Cinema is entertainment, and people go to the movies because they want to feel good and forget about everything.
