As far as I know, if you take your time, write a good script and make a good film, then give the audience time, they will accept it.
There are so many elements that make a good film. You need a great director who's driving it.
If you make a feelgood film which is complete candyfloss, where everybody is good and everything is beautiful and hunky dory, it won't appeal to the audience.
I don't really see the point in making a film unless you can think of a good reason to do it.
I mean, it was a mummy movie. It was a good film independent of its source. It that looks like Lawrence of Arabia on steroids in a lot of ways.
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.
I think what makes a good action film is a story that gets you involved. Just action, by itself, is not going to work.
Jennifer Aniston and I have always just really gotten along well... I was just fortunate to be a good fit for parts in her films.
The problem with trying to make a film good and have it work for an audience is the problem of trying to tell a story well. The shape or the color of it doesn't matter.
Lynch is not as strange as his films. He's a complex guy with a very interesting view of the world. But he's very accessible, with a good heart.
I'm just attracted to good material and great characters and that can come in any form, whether it's television or film or a theatre piece.
I think Michael Caine is a perfectly good actor but it's obvious he's not going to be in one of my films.
I acted in a couple friends's short films and thought I was gonna be really good and mysterious and sexy. And I was just terrible and self-aware.
Film is such a very good tool for communicating emotions, and all designers and creative people look to inspire an emotional response.
A film is never really good unless the camera is an eye in the head of a poet.
Of course I want my films to look really good, but every single element is chosen for a reason. It's telling something in the story.
I want to do some bigger films, so long as there's some sort of exciting creative element or a good filmmaker behind them.
I'd love to do another film version of 'Romeo & Juliet.' I'm not too picky as long as it's a good story.
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.
The studio are making a lot of good noises about 'Bunker Hill;' so it would be great if that goes ahead. We had a riot filming it.
Sword fighting in film is not about how good the fighter is, but how good the actor receiving the blows is.
