Normal people, who can be good people but do bad things, are very interesting to me, and people that never get a parking ticket or never do a bad thing in their lives can be really dangerous.
It had a very good arrangement by Herbie Hancock, but it used existing pieces.
I also used these realistic sounds in a psychological way. With The Good, the Bad and the Ugly, I used animal sounds - as you say, the coyote sound - so the sound of the animal became the main theme of the movie.
Britain has been good to the Jews, and the Jews have been good for Britain.
I think there's a certain objectivity that comes from being Canadian. You're partly British and partly American; you have a good bird's-eye view of both countries. So much of the comedy that comes out of Canada is impersonation - it's less 'look at m...
Most consumers don't have a good metric for deciding on whether the dictionary they want to use is a good one... so they flip the book over, then go to the back, and it says, 'Over 250,000 entries.' And they go, 'Great, this dictionary must be awesom...
There are very few good ways to get publicity for a dictionary.
I think it was a good thing that Joanie and Chachi married.
Comic-Con was crazy, good crazy... Five minutes after I'm done, the cast of 'Twilight' is where I was sitting.
I think that's a hallmark of a really good story that it has readers that it speaks to more than others.
I feel as if I became a documentary film-maker only because I had writer's block for four decades. There's no other good reason.
All I would say to people who doubt 'Caprica' is: Everything good starts slow.
There is nothing wrong with becoming more ambitious along the way, but I think what the government has asked the council to do is a perfectly good starting point.
Broadway has been very good to me. But then, I've been very good to broadway.
We need to start seeing privacy as a commons - as some kind of a public good that can get depleted as too many people treat it carelessly or abandon it too eagerly. What is privacy for? This question needs an urgent answer.
There is this absurd assumption that the revitalisation of the public sphere is always a good thing. I think people tend to confuse 'civic' and 'civil,' and they believe that everything that is done by citizens is necessarily a good thing because you...
I'm just into making quality stuff if I can, with interesting people and good scripts. But it's very important that it's about something and that it says something. Otherwise, I don't know what the point is, really.
Producing good stuff can be quite tough, and it involves a lot of frustration, but I always like things to be jolly and happy, and I forget that's actually not the point at the end of the day.
So, no, I'm not trying to crack into Hollywood, although I'll make films there if they're good scripts.
You'll find boredom where there is the absence of a good idea.
Ah, 'The Departed' is really good.
