I think all great actors - and I don’t classify myself as one of them, incidentally - but I think all great actors listen well and I’ve learned that from a lot of the very good actors with whom I’ve worked - to really listen to what people say.  (John Frankenheimer Quotes) I mean, this whole digital revolution is really eroding the director’s importance on a movie because, number one, just from a practical standpoint, with floppy disks and the ability to put all of the film onto a disk, more people have access to the movie.  (John Frankenheimer Quotes) I look at actors very closely. It’s not an accident when the actors excel.  (John Frankenheimer Quotes) The world is full of beautiful girls. But they’re not Angelina Jolie. She’s fun, honest, intelligent, gorgeous and divinely talented. She brings a hell of a lot to the party  (John Frankenheimer Quotes) There are two things I will never do in my life. I will never climb Mount Everest, and I will never work with Val Kilmer again. There isn’t enough money in the world  (John Frankenheimer Quotes) The first thing is that we’re being attacked by both the Writers Guild and the Producers Guild. Both of these groups are trying to diminish the importance and strength of the director. They’re trying to do it through both frontal and side attacks  (John Frankenheimer Quotes) One of the first lessons you learn as an actor is to listen  (John Frankenheimer Quotes) The importance of the assistant director cannot be overemphasized  (John Frankenheimer Quotes) The first thing I can really tell you is I really love the work  (John Frankenheimer Quotes) So I’ve had really great assistant directors for my last seven movies  (John Frankenheimer Quotes) If you don’t cast well, you can be in real trouble  (John Frankenheimer Quotes) I really, really love directing films  (John Frankenheimer Quotes) Casting is 65 percent of directing  (John Frankenheimer Quotes) I have gotten to a point in my life where I don’t want to have dinner with someone I don’t like  (John Frankenheimer Quotes) Historically the director has been the key creative element in a film and we must maintain that. We must protect that, in spite of the fact that there is new technology that’s continually trying to erode that  (John Frankenheimer Quotes) A disk unbeknownst to the director can go to the producer in another city or in another office and that producer can edit behind the director’s back much easier than in the old days. Since these dailies are now put on videotape, more kinds of people have access to dailies  (John Frankenheimer Quotes) And I kind of feel that I have a responsibility to the people that invest their time and money with me to show up on the set every day and do the best of which I am capable  (John Frankenheimer Quotes) First, speaking for myself, I don’t want to ever be in a position where I’m telling other directors how to make movies, because I don’t think it’s any of my business  (John Frankenheimer Quotes) I feel that my job is to create an atmosphere where creative people can do their best work  (John Frankenheimer Quotes) You have to really work with someone who you think is going to be a collaborator, who you think understands what you want to do with this movie and how you want to do it  (John Frankenheimer Quotes) There are so many effects and so many things that are done digitally now that it’s so hard for the director to really control the process, because there are more and more experts that come in  (John Frankenheimer Quotes) Then I usually leave the choice of the second assistant director and any other assistant directors to the first assistant director, who will choose because he or she is responsible for the conduct and the efficiency of the second assistant directors  (John Frankenheimer Quotes) The whole thing of this business is to retain your enthusiasm and, in a sense, retain your innocence and try to practice as much humility as possible  (John Frankenheimer Quotes) I think that you can’t make a movie without a script. But you also can’t make movies without actors. You also can’t make movies without technicians. And there has to be just one person in charge of everybody, and to me that one person is the director  (John Frankenheimer Quotes) I look at actors very closely. It’s not an accident when the actors excel  (John Frankenheimer Quotes) The first assistant director is just so important that the choice of that person is critical to the movie  (John Frankenheimer Quotes) The accolades usually come when you’re dead or too old to get a job  (John Frankenheimer Quotes) I mean, this whole digital revolution is really eroding the director’s importance on a movie because, number one, just from a practical standpoint, with floppy disks and the ability to put all of the film onto a disk, more people have access to the movie  (John Frankenheimer Quotes) I sought Ben Affleck because I needed an everyman for this role. Ben appeals to men and women. He gives you a sense of intelligence, the notion of a guy who can think on his feet  (John Frankenheimer Quotes) It’s very eclectic, the way one chooses subjects in the movie business, especially in the commercial movie business. You need to develop material yourself or material is presented to you as an assignment to direct  (John Frankenheimer Quotes)
