3 December 2020 Vin Diesel You make movies for the people. If critics happen to like them too, well, that’s a home run.
3 December 2020 David Ogden Stiers Very often when I go in to meet for movies or pilots, I’m put on videotape. I hate the notion that that tape is going to sit on a shelf and never get better.
3 December 2020 George A. Romero People called ’28 Days’ and ’28 Weeks’ zombie movies, and they’re not! It’s some sort of virus they’re not dead.
3 December 2020 Philip Seymour Hoffman I work constantly but I work at a lot of different things. You know, I run a theater company in New York, I direct plays, act in plays, in movies, so I try to keep it eclectic.
3 December 2020 Idris Elba The long and short of it is that I am now in a position in England to green light movies, and that’s really excellent – not high-budget movies, but movies none the less.
3 December 2020 Diablo Cody People don’t have these tidy little redemption arcs in reality the way they do in movies.
3 December 2020 Harvey Weinstein I’ve had such a great track record in making a huge profit when the movies are smaller.
3 December 2020 Tony Kushner I write plays and movies, I live and work at the borderline between word and image just as any cartoonist or illustrator does. I’m not a pure writer. I use words as the score for kinetic imagistic representations.
3 December 2020 Jeremy Renner There’s too much down time making movies. That leads to boredom. And that leads to trouble.
3 December 2020 Selma Blair Bathroom humor, fart, and poo poo humor in movies gets a laugh. It’s a pretty easy audience, and that’s been around for ages.
3 December 2020 Jim Harrison I enjoy about 1 out of 100 movies, it’s about the same proportion to books published that I care to read.
3 December 2020 Fred Durst I think ever since I was preteen I wanted to direct movies and tell stories.
3 December 2020 Josh Radnor When I go to movies and I love the movie, it’s because it feels like it articulated something about how we’re living now, and also gives me some insight into my own life. I feel actually altered after having seen it.
3 December 2020 Michelle Rodriguez I use to watch like maybe three or four movies, five days out of the week. I was a movie buff, but I really didn’t know what it was like behind the scenes, or the whole political process of it.
3 December 2020 Kevin Smith Other filmmakers make their movies and put them out and that’s that. For me, for some odd reason, it goes deeper than that.
3 December 2020 Carrie-Anne Moss I’ve never been interested in action movies. Definitely not interested in sci-fi.
3 December 2020 James Wolcott It’s the contemporary woman that movies don’t know what to do with, other than bathe her in a bridal glow in romantic comedies where both the romance and the comedy are artificial sweeteners.
3 December 2020 George A. Romero Ever since ‘Lassie’ and ‘Old Yeller’, I won’t watch animal movies. Animals in movies always die.
3 December 2020 J. D. Salinger You take somebody that cries their goddam eyes out over phoney stuff in the movies, and nine times out of ten they’re mean bastards at heart.
3 December 2020 Jodie Foster The movies I made when I was 14 or 15, I have a hard time looking at those. Those were the awkward years. I don’t know if anybody can look at something they did when they were 14 and not wince.
3 December 2020 Johnny Knoxville I’m not looking to lose anything. I’m looking to continue making movies.
3 December 2020 Abbas Kiarostami I would be too selfish if I said everyone should see my movies more than once. To say that would mean I’m just marketing my work!
