Directors Quotes

I was fortunate enough to work under directors who were, most of them, brilliant, emotional men Picture Quote #1

I’m only wanted by directors for the image I give off, and it makes me angry. I always wanted to be an actor and not a beauty pageant winner Picture Quote #1

I’ve worked with many directors, good ones and bad ones. So if I have a chance to work the good ones, I better put myself in their hands, and trust them, because that’s my big opportunity to be different, and to be better than usual Picture Quote #1

If you work in casting, it’s sort of not cool to want to act. A lot of people think that casting directors are frustrated actors, but it wasn’t true with any of the casting people I knew Picture Quote #1

My sense is, I think it’s okay for directors to do movies that speak to other work in their career Picture Quote #1

Some very famous directors have started in the mail room, which is just getting inside the studio, getting to know people, getting to know the routine Picture Quote #1

There are a few directors around who I have some excitement about spending my $7 at the theatre watching their movies Picture Quote #1

Yeah, I mean the material, directors, the other cast, and if you think you can do something with the character then you do it and go from there. I am looking forward to doing some smaller movies Picture Quote #1

A lot of directors don’t know what they want to do. Every director I’ve seen that was a good director that I’ve admired knew exactly what he wanted to do. They didn’t sit there and think about it Picture Quote #1

We make a contract within ourselves as actors or directors or writers about how much of ourselves we let into projects. You can actually figure out before you work on something how much blood you will have to let emotionally Picture Quote #1

All of the directors I’ve worked with I have loved and would work with again. I have no favorites Picture Quote #1

Most directors have little lists in their heads of people they really want to work with Picture Quote #1

Bad directors will tell you they absolutely know how to do it, and how it has to happen; there’s this insecurity that leads them to feeling like they have to control everything Picture Quote #1

I love working with new directors. There’s so much drive and effort. It still comes down to the character for me, but if it’s a character I really want to play, I would never not do the project because of a new director Picture Quote #1

All these directors who do different locations forget that one room can be shot from a million different angles and a million different ways. When I direct a movie, I’m going to use that Picture Quote #1

I don’t like actors who try to talk directors into making their part bigger and that’s really lame Picture Quote #1

My interpretation of a strong director is someone who knows their story. That’s what directors are, they’re storytellers because they’re directing where your focus is going to be as an audience Picture Quote #1

The time I’m not spending with my kid has to be worth it, so when I sat down with my agents after I was ready to go back to work, I told them: It’s all about the directors Picture Quote #1

I began taking liberties a long time ago; now it is standard practice for most directors to ignore the rules Picture Quote #1

Music video directors, who conceive, write and direct these works, enjoy no creative rights, receive no ongoing financial benefit from the sale of our work, and many times are not even credited Picture Quote #1

Having been a child actor, I remember how directors would trick me to get good performances out of me. I don’t think you need to do that Picture Quote #1

I’ve worked with very few directors who’ve asked of me what I asked of myself Picture Quote #1

I’m thinking about directing, but I know it’s a lot of work and I appreciate what directors do and I would like to be good at it. The opportunity has presented itself four to five times, and I usually said no because of the script Picture Quote #1

I love doing big movies. It’s awesome! You have all these toys. The thing I like about this movie is, like they always say, directors have the biggest train sets! Don’t tell anyone, but I’d do this for free Picture Quote #1

Directors and writers have a lot of stress as well, because they have people they answer to Picture Quote #1

A lot of film directors are quite scared of actors. They are a bit of a nightmare sometimes, but I like them. It looks like cunning, but you try to get extra things from them all the time, by stealth, by making them feel confident, so they trust you and you can push a bit Picture Quote #1

Some of us are interested in directors, but really the vast majority of us are interested in actors. You experience the films through the actors, so they’re all locked into your imagination in some kind of layer of fantasy or hatred or wherever they settle into your imagination Picture Quote #1

Maybe I’m too masculine. Casting directors cast in their own, or an idealized image. Maybe I don’t look like anybody’s ideal Picture Quote #1

I do like to work with young directors because it’s such a difficult business that I think after directors have been around a while sometimes, not always, but sometimes their passion gets siphoned off because they get hurt Picture Quote #1

I watched a couple of really bad directors work, and I saw how they completely botched it up and missed the visual opportunities of the scene when we had put things in front of them as opportunities. Set pieces, props and so on Picture Quote #1
