If the audience, in minute 50, is thinking about the way a movie is shot, there's a problem. I want it to permeate emotionally.
I don't really watch a lot of TV, to be honest. I'm more of a movie girl, or I Netflix stuff.
The Manchurian Candidate was the most important movie I was in, let's face it.
Books and movies, they are not mere entertainment. They sustain me and help me cope with my real life.
I feel the film companies should pay for proper advertising to see that the movie will sell, instead of putting it on our backs.
Meanwhile, politics is about getting a candidate in front of the public as a star, politics as rock'n'roll, politics as a movie.
A girl is just like a movie, you want to know what happends next, and how it will end...
Are Christians too stupid that we can't write a script, we can't film a movie OR we don't know how to act?
You must understand as a kid of color in those days, the Harlem Globetrotters were like being movie stars.
I mean no film is beyond criticism, but I think we've made a very modest movie.
I've spent several years in Hollywood, and I still think the movie heroes are in the audience.
It's not a bad day at work when you just have to take your shirt off for a big franchise movie. There are worse jobs out there!
It must have been so impossible to think about it and dare to do that, so they feel compassionate for her. I don't think the movie would work otherwise.
And I think one way or another it's evident to those who work with me that as a writer, a director, a friend, as somebody's there that's very anxious to get the movie made.
Having gotten TV shows on the air, that's so much less work that trying to get the 'Veronica Mars' movie made.
My dream was to become a very small blonde movie star like Ida Lupino and those other women I saw up there on the screen during the Depression.
You have actors who begin at a certain young age and there's very little change in their technique and the depth of their performances; they're the same 30 years later.
Basically I am just another actor who loves his work and this thing about age only exists in the media.
I've always had, like, from the age of about 11, I've had such an intolerance for bad behaviour of actors that I don't think I was ever going to be that person.
From a very young age, I wanted to be an actor, but I lived in a very small town in Florida where there weren't any opportunities for that.
I was trained as an actor and taught to believe at a very young age that I could be anything and do anything, and then you find yourself painted into a corner by your own image or persona.
