Film Quotes

Cinema has become my life. I don’t mean a parallel world, I mean my life itself. I sometimes have the impression that the daily reality is simply there to provide material for my next film Picture Quote #1

I may film scenes I had no intention of filming; things suggest themselves on location, and we improvise. I try not to think about it too much. Then, in the cutting room, I take the film and start to put it together, and only then do I begin to get an idea of what it is about Picture Quote #1

Sure. I’d like to live regular. Go home to a good looking wife, a hot dinner, and a husky kid. But I guess I got film in my blood. I love this racket. It’s exciting. It’s dangerous. It’s funny. It’s tough. It’s heartbreaking Picture Quote #1

I pierced one nipple. Not both. Just one. She has it in the books and I wanted to get as many of the piercings as I could, and I spent so much time on this film naked, and I just had to be really comfortable with that right away... I’m gonna keep it for now. I don’t want to have to repierce that should we do the other two films Picture Quote #1

Communication is very important. And the arts do that, whether it’s film or theater Picture Quote #1

Every film I have made has corresponded to a very special moment of my life. I like to think that if someone wanted to reconstruct the story of my life, they can just see my movies and know what I have been through Picture Quote #1

I feel like theatre gives me the grounding, and keeps me alive, basically. Film gives me the thrill, and it’s like a one night stand. But I do enjoy being around people who love it so much Picture Quote #1

There’s no more film; now everything’s digital. I welcome this. It’s fantastic for me to have a new chance Picture Quote #1

When I make a film, I never stop uncovering mysteries, making discoveries. When I’m writing, filming, editing, even doing promotional work, I discover new things about the film, about myself, and about others. That is what I’m subconsciously looking for when shooting a film: to glimpse the enigmas of life, even if I don’t resolve them, but at least to uncover them. Cinema is curiosity in the most intense meaning of the word Picture Quote #1

I got expelled from high school, and then did my exams from home. I decided, through that experience, that I was going to expediate my plan and didn’t go to university. Instead, I went to a community college and studied the theory and history of film with the idea that I wanted to write and direct Picture Quote #1

My wife comes with me on all the movies, but she is not an appendage to a film star or anything like that. She is a completely intertwined partner. She is the other half of me. Also, we’re still very much in love with each other. We always have been, we always will be Picture Quote #1

Making a film or doing a play are completely different experiences and entirely fulfilling, but completely unique. I also think one complements the other. People often say that theater is about flexing your muscles, and is actually real acting, whereas I sort of disagree Picture Quote #1

Pass the popcorn, please. Life is a film, theatre, a theatre of the soul. We play different roles on different stages. At death, we walk offstage. At birth, we walk onstage Picture Quote #1

I’m not meant to run around trees. I can’t throw my arms in the air and sing, I find that boring and irritating. Sweet romcoms are not my cup of tea. The film has to be a little twisted and quirky Picture Quote #1

I don’t think there is any difference between fantasy and reality in the way these should be approached in a film. Of course if you live that way you are clinically insane Picture Quote #1

You have to have a very strong cash flow for a film to really stay in theaters. You have to have the advertising capacity to sustain and follow the kind of press coverage Picture Quote #1

If you’re playing a cop in a modern film, you don’t have to walk with your spine straight up and bow before a fight. There’s a lot of free form of expressing yourself as an actor Picture Quote #1

I don’t have any plans to pursue film acting. It’s not my thing anymore, if it ever was. Yes, I do still act sometimes. But when I do, it’s with people I know and trust, people who respect me as a person and appreciate what I have to offer Picture Quote #1

The film is the first art form capable of demonstrating how matter plays tricks on man Picture Quote #1

I accept all interpretations of my films. The only reality is before the camera. Each film I make is kind of a return to poetry for me, or at least an attempt to create a poem Picture Quote #1

I love editing. I think I like it more than any other phase of film making. If I wanted to be frivolous, I might say that everything that precedes editing is merely a way of producing film to edit Picture Quote #1

Film students should stay as far away from film schools and film teachers as possible. The only school for the cinema is the cinema Picture Quote #1

I’m going to be a great film star. That is, if booze and sex don’t get me first Picture Quote #1

It’s hard to film underwater. It really is tricky. You don’t have goggles, so you can’t see anything. You don’t know where you’re swimming to. Everything’s blurry Picture Quote #1

Death comes in a flash, and that’s the truth of it, the person’s gone in less than 24 frames of film Picture Quote #1

I think cinema, movies, and magic have always been closely associated. The very earliest people who made film were magicians Picture Quote #1

Young film makers should learn how to deal with the money and learn how to deal with the power structure. Because it is like a battle Picture Quote #1

Anyone who’s made film and knows about the cinema has a lifelong love affair with the experience. You never stop learning about film Picture Quote #1

I gladly, I voluntarily gave up the kind of commercial film career I had going as soon as I had enough money to finance my own films Picture Quote #1
