Peter Riegert Quotes

I think when you’re younger, as an actor you have much more of a notion that you are doing something to the audience. But with experience, I think you begin to worry less about what the audience’s experience is and concentrate on working with the other actors, and that tends to let the audience do more work Picture Quote #1

I got to learn from the American audience. Hearing what it is they’re not getting. These are audiences, 35 to 40, an older demographic that controls seven to 10 trillion dollars. And the producers and distributors have convinced themselves this group doesn’t go to the movies Picture Quote #1

I did ‘Animal House’ in 1978, then ‘Local Hero’ in 1983, and then in 88, ‘Crossing Delancey.’ And I realized that every three to five years, you need a big role to put you into the national psyche Picture Quote #1

In 1962, the smallest things were upsetting to authority. It wasn’t the Civil Rights Movement. It wasn’t the Anti-war Movement. It was something else, but it was a harbinger of what was to come Picture Quote #1

Sometimes you make a connection with a writer or a piece of material, and there’s not much to ask Picture Quote #1

As a matter of fact, part of being Jewish is the whole question of what it is to be a Jew Picture Quote #1

A movie is a filmed rehearsal in a way. The audience doesn’t know that because you’re taking out the things that don’t work. There’s no comparison to the theater because it’s live. But making a movie is just as challenging and exciting, I find. A movie is pure process. The theater is the result of process Picture Quote #1

I did a play in high school, then one in college. My first professional experience was off-off-Broadway. I’m conveniently blocking the title. I’m sure I was terrible Picture Quote #1

There are times when you have to fight for something you believe in, that you love Picture Quote #1

You have to have an ego to be an actor, but you need an ego just to get through life! Unless you want to sit on a corner and suck your thumb, it takes a healthy ego to get up in the morning and say, ‘I deserve to be here.’ Picture Quote #1
