If you're fighting with your boyfriend, you can go to the movies and cry it out and leave happy because the ending of the film is happy.
I really wanted to go onstage. Not movies. But I ended up under contract to Paramount. Now I adore film work.
I've done movies with a sword before. But I haven't really been given the full responsibility of something like a Ridley Scott film.
I like boxing movies. One of the hardest things for me to watch as far as boxing films, is the boxing. The actual boxing usually sucks.
I don't actually sit down and write, but I just have a lot of different ideas about films and making movies.
Going to the movies was a big event in my youth. My father would be the initiator - he'd have me put on a jacket to see a film.
Compared with other Indian film composers, I only write about six movies a year. Others write up to 60.
I'm not a big fan of there being voiceovers in movies. I really prefer it when the film tells it story.
I made two movies before The Police had a hit record: I did Quadrophenia and a film called Radio On.
A song like 'Osito Carpintero' came straight from the Pedro Infante films, movies that all the kids in Mexico watched.
I have a few friends that have inspired me since I was a young kid. When I watch old films or modern movies - particularly 'Gladiator,' 'New Jack City' and 'The Skin I Live In' - I'll also get ideas.
The first thing I put down on paper is a storyboard, like a film director.
Yeah, I'd be happy to go back to Mexico or Japan to make another film.
To have a film in America means precisely nothing if you don't have a distributor who stands behind it.
You get an image after you act in a film, but it is not necessary that you last long because of that image.
I'm really easily affected by horror films. I have pretty strong reactions to them.
Listen, anybody who has a film festival has the right to show what they want.
I would like to sing the theme tune of a big film - something like 'Titanic.'
In films murders are always very clean. I show how difficult it is and what a messy thing it is to kill a man.
With anything, and especially with the pallet of viewers in watching anything on TV and film, you have to entertain them.
'Russian Ark,' I adore - I almost cried at the end of that film, it's so beautiful.
