Good Film Quotes

If you’re sitting in the audience, you probably can’t see the preparation and work that goes into creating a great scene or a great part, but I can assure you that a good film depends on lot of different things falling perfectly into place Picture Quote #1

When I was in film school, it was said that all good films were characterised by some form of humour Picture Quote #1

With a good script a good director can produce a masterpiece; with the same script a mediocre director can make a passable film. But with a bad script even a good director can’t possibly make a good film. For truly cinematic expression, the camera and the microphone must be able to cross both fire and water. That is what makes a real movie. The script must be something that has the power to do this Picture Quote #1

I just want to make sure I’m contributing good films to movie history rather than being famous just to be famous Picture Quote #1

I’m not in a situation where you get a thousand scripts. You want to make a living, you want to put your kids through school. I’d rather do three bad films that pay well than do one good film every three years that doesn’t pay well... To me, if you can get a steady check in this business, you’re doing okay Picture Quote #1

I think film is about images. Cinema needs good images. I think that if you don’t have good images, it’s not going to be a good film. I think all films should be really visual Picture Quote #1

A trap screenwriters can fall into is making scripts that are good reads, which doesn’t necessarily mean it will make a good film Picture Quote #1

I’ve always believed that if you want to really try and make a great film, not a good film, but a great film, you have to take a lot of risks Picture Quote #1

Good films are not made by accident, nor is good photography. You can have good things happen, on occasion, by accident that can be applied at that moment in a film, but your craft isn’t structured around such things, except in beer commercials Picture Quote #1

If you take a really good book, then the potential is for a really good film. But you’ve got to get it right Picture Quote #1

I don’t think a guy that really has no understanding about people, or has no interest in understanding people would make a good film composer Picture Quote #1

You would think, in an ideal world, that if you were in a really good film and did a really good job, whether it was a big film or not, you would get hired a lot; but that is not my experience Picture Quote #1

As rewarding as a good film role can be, there is just nothing like getting up on a stage and taking an audience for a ride Picture Quote #1

I learned very quickly that the hard thing in life is to make good films. Technically, filmmaking is the camera and the actor telling the story and that’s what I’m more interested in doing Picture Quote #1

I suppose once in a while, a filmmaker makes a movie that’s more than just a sum of its parts, more than good acting or good filmmaking. It’s something else that has nothing to do with what you’ve done. This is in 1999, made by people in 1999 for people in 1999 about people in 1999 Picture Quote #1

That’s what a powerful story does. It creates a more intense experience of life for you to watch. That’s what a good film does for me, anyway. That process, I enjoy. It just makes for entertaining characters and entertaining films Picture Quote #1

For me, a director is a director immaterial of the gender. At the end of the day, the audience is only interested in watching a good film Picture Quote #1

Always care for the writing part first. Every good film project starts with good writing. If you have a good script, everything else follows. Writing is crucial Picture Quote #1

I think people direct good films when they feel personal to them, not because it’s a famous book or something. It has to something move over that and somehow become personal to the director Picture Quote #1

Deeper fulfilment is rather different from the happiness of seeing a good film or watching your team win at football, and it doesn’t come at the push of a button Picture Quote #1

I like a drama. And I think that’s the basis of good films, or good plays, is to have a nice drama Picture Quote #1

I think good filmmaking is when you really hold the mirror up truthfully, and you don’t angle it and you don’t hide things with smoke and mirrors Picture Quote #1

I don’t think that you can be prescriptive about anything, I mean, life is too complicated. Maybe there are novels where the author has not in the least thought about it in terms of film, which can be turned into good films Picture Quote #1

I can’t think of any one film that improved on a good novel, but I can think of many good films that came from very bad novels Picture Quote #1

Hopefully, I’ll just get to be part of good films and work with good people, and that’s how it will develop Picture Quote #1

The film I think was a good film for what it was designed for. It was for kids. Unfortunately the critics slashed it before it even started but that is just the way the cookie crumbles Picture Quote #1

I have an affinity for good roles in good films. I like a variety of parts, and if some of the good stuff happens to be in fantasy and horror, I do them Picture Quote #1

The novel succeeds on terms exclusive to literature. A good film succeeds on terms exclusive to the cinema. That’s why so many bad novels can become good movies, like ‘Jaws’ or ‘The Godfather. ‘ Picture Quote #1

I think that the change began... I made a film a few years ago called the Spitfire Grill, and that didn’t make much money either, but it was a good film and an independent film Picture Quote #1

I think film is a director’s medium and the good filmmakers that I like tell the darker stories. Therefore, I’m always inclined to follow people like David Cronenberg Picture Quote #1
