Independent Film Quotes

Id like to do an action film or a dark sort of independent piece Picture Quote #1

I’m always struck by the kids who turn up in New York and LA, and places in between. Chicago. Wanting to do theater, wanting to do independent film. Wanting to break into television or radio Picture Quote #1

And you know, we did it as an independent film, and we weren’t expecting it to be on television, and Lifetime ended up buying it. And the viewers responded intensely to that film Picture Quote #1

Independent films in this country are in the same position. Miramax and Fine Line are not independent - they’re with Disney! Come on. Or they’re with Warner Brothers. They’re all with somebody Picture Quote #1

When a film like Chris Nolan’s Memento cannot get picked up, to me independent film is over. It’s dead Picture Quote #1

There’s a strange sense of accomplishment in making an independent film. Everything’s against you; there’s no time, and even less money - you bring a bottle of glue, chip in twenty bucks, and hope you all make it through the day. If you manage to finish it and it actually turns out to be pretty good, it’s thrilling Picture Quote #1

But it’s often been the case, I’ve done so many countless small, independent films that really 3.2 people have seen, so you never know. You do it for the joy of the part and not necessarily expect anyone to see the final product Picture Quote #1

I feel my fuller-bodied characters are all in the independent films I do, and in the studio productions, I have to work harder to dimensionalize the characters. And that’s certainly part of the job description of an actor - that’s what you’re supposed to do - but you have to work harder at it in the characters that I’ve encountered in studio films Picture Quote #1

I don’t think American independent films have ever really been particularly experimental, except for the original guys from the 60s who were huge influences, like Stan Brakhage, Robert Breer, and Stan van der Beek. They were the true independents Picture Quote #1

I mean, I made The Phantom, although The Phantom was, believe it or not, an independent film. It was just a very large, expensive independent film Picture Quote #1

I’ve love to do more movies. Just because I’m interested in the medium very much. I’ve done a lot of theatre at this point, and I’ve done a lot of TV. I’ve done a few independent films, but a lot of them have not seen the light of day. It’d be really nice to be in a film that gets out there Picture Quote #1

When I started out in independent films in the early 70s, we did everything for the love of art. It wasn’t about money and stardom. That was what we were reacting against. You’d die before you’d be bought Picture Quote #1

I did a film when I was about 30; it’s a coming of age story called ‘Gas Food Lodging,’ and I’m so proud of that little independent film. I play this young English geologist, and he’s such a simple, loving kind of guy. Doesn’t talk too much. He’s just a quiet guy, and he gets the girl Picture Quote #1

I’ve really enjoyed the independent film world. I’ve had a blast. But, the reality is that I really want to make bigger movies. If I could make movies that carry great characters and great performances and great pathos, and can have an explosion or two, that would be fine with me Picture Quote #1

This fall I’m doing something I’ve never done before. I’m starring in a film, an independent film Picture Quote #1

I did very much enjoy being part of an independent film. It was just the energy Picture Quote #1

To make a real independent film where the filmmaker is in charge creatively, one must sacrifice personal, financial, and physical well-being Picture Quote #1

There’s no independent satisfaction without the success of the film itself. The feel that you have done the best you can to support the film Picture Quote #1

The biggest problem with the independent film sector in Toronto is that they find themselves having to make that budget show on screen Picture Quote #1

It’s always a challenge to make an independent film. It’s always a challenge to make a low budget film Picture Quote #1

I want to have the illegitimate child of independent film making and the budget to make it. That’s my aspiration Picture Quote #1

Newlyweds shooting budget: 5k for actors, 2k insurance, 2k food and drink. 9k in the can. We only shot 12 days. That’s how to make an independent film Picture Quote #1

The great thing about an independent film is that you’re too busy working, and you’re too busy hoping to God to get it done Picture Quote #1

When you’re making an independent film and you care about it so much you do all the prep work beforehand Picture Quote #1

I see horror as part of legitimate film. I don’t see it as an independent genre that has nothing to do with cinema Picture Quote #1

I do love directing. I’m only comfortable working in the independent film arena for a very small budget where I have creative control and I can put my stamp on it Picture Quote #1

I believe that independent film making is the last frontier of creative expression available. So I’m always willing to lend a helping hand to a young film maker who’s just getting into the business Picture Quote #1

The independent film business is pretty much gone. Now you can do it in a format where you actually get to develop a character over a period of time Picture Quote #1

Intimacy between humans need not be relegated to independent film. Real characters can exist no matter what the scale of a movie is Picture Quote #1

I want to do more independent film. I’m blessed to be working on really quality episodic television, which to me actually feels like a sort of 13-hour film Picture Quote #1
