I'm really into acquiring film paraphernalia - that's my hobby. I love old movie posters, cameras and film reels.
I am a hybrid. I do independent films and also do Hollywood films - I love them both.
It's very tempting to over-eat all the bad things when you're on a film set.
If I start paying attention to the mechanics of a film while watching it, then it's generally a bad film.
Certain types of films will never test well. My films never seem to test well.
Most films I work on, the people making the film are constantly second-guessing the executives of the studio, the producer, and the audience. It is very hard to accomplish anything in that situation.
Film work can be very interesting, but it also can be awfully boring because who creates the film? The actors? No. It is the director. It's his piece of work.
Shining like a work of art Hanging on a wall of stars Are you what I think you are? You're my satellite You're riding with me tonight Passenger side, lighting the sky Always the first star that I find You're my satellite Elevator to the moon Whistlin...
There are stars in the night sky that look brighter than the others, and when you look at them through a telescope you realize you are looking at twins. The two stars rotate around each other, sometimes taking nearly a hundred years to do it. They cr...
The evolutionists, piercing beneath the show of momentary stability, discovered, hidden in rudimentary organs, the discarded rubbish of the past. They detected the reptile under the lifted feathers of the bird, the lost terrestrial limbs dwindling be...
He sat at his desk – last seat, last row – and looked at the chart on the wall next to him. Of course there was no gold star next to his name. He had already done three things wrong: First, he had knocked over a girl and made her cry. Second, he ...
Go back to that night when Divine Light, in order to illumine the darkness of men, tabernacled Himself in the world He had made… The angels and a star caught up in the reflection of that Light, as a torch lighted by a torch, and passed it on to the...
Because she looks to the sky so often, people think that her life is sweet, that her eyes are dotted with dreamy stars. But quite the opposite is true and I wish they could see— she looks up so much because all around her it's hard to see without b...
Voice of the stars: [to Tristan as he's sleeping, causing him to see it] Tristan. Tristan. Yvaine is in grave danger. A unicorn came to help her, but now they're heading into a trap. No star is safe in Stormhold. The last one fell 400 years ago and w...
If you're an artist, it's OK to put your money into your art. The advantage, in hindsight, is that you become the film, and the film becomes you; you breathe it.
I like the platform to show your art and everything that goes along with that. To show your voice and hopefully find films that are more politically driven, films that maybe inspire.
When you do a film, all you want is to make the best film possible. You don't think about Oscars. But it's really flattering. Please, bring it on!
I have been in the film industry for 35 years, and everyone, including the spot-boys, will vouch for my character.
I am sure I am one of 2,000 film directors in the world that Tarantino admires.
I do like musical films more than big Hollywood films, especially those by Jacques Demi and Vincent Minelli.
I like serious films, the moneymaking blockbusters that don't make any kind of sense and John Carpenter films.
