When I shoot I'll take my family with me - one movie a year and then the rest of the time at home. (Eric Bana)

Bipasha Basu
I enjoy the TV series 'Dexter,' where there's a reason for every kill. Quentin Tarantino is a favourite, and a 'Kill Bill' action-packed movie would be up my street. I'd love to be India's first scream queen! View quote

After 10 years of French torture - psychological torture - it's great to do an American movie. View quote
Emmanuelle Beart
Very often with an American movie, the end is very happy and you just feel good when you go out. When you go to a French movie, it's kind of like, oh!, and you can't go out; you're stuck in your chair. It goes so deeply inside of the heart. View quote

Shane Black
An action movie should, like any other, follow the narrative traditions of literature. That means there should be subtlety, a slow build and a gradual bringing together of all the separate threads of the plot. To see all of it coming together slowly is very rewarding for the audience. (Shane Black)
I think about the audience in the sense that I serve as my own audience. I have to please myself the way, if I saw the movie in a theater, I would be pleased. Do I think about catering to an audience? No. View quote
Shane Black
Any time anyone fires bullets in an action movie that don't hit the target it immediately undermines the movie. View quote
Shane Black
Every time I watch it, I still see something new, and I've seen it a lot as you can imagine. When fans only talk about the scares, they're not really learning anything, which is a shame because Billy really put a lot of thematic elements in this movie that are supposed to make you think. It wasn't just about scaring people; it was a family drama that had horrific elements. View quote
Linda Blair
If I had done a Disney movie nobody would care. They would not care. You may say oh, I grew up and I loved that movie, that was really super, but you wouldn't care. People really will stop and talk to me about deeper issues, which I am excited to participate in. View quote
Linda Blair
I remember seeing a movie with Jose Ferrer and Rosemary Clooney where they were husband and wife, and they got in bed, and he had on polka-dot pajamas and she had on striped pajamas, and when they got up the next morning he had on the striped pajamas and she had the polka dot pajamas, and that was considered racy at that time!

Bob Newhart
I never make a movie for awards consideration. I will use the hope of getting an Academy Award a) to honor the people who work so hard and also b) it's the greatest Good Housekeeping seal in the world. It's the greatest brand. It's as good as Louis Vuitton and Dior in the world of moviemaking. It's the Super Bowl. View quote
Harvey Weinstein
I'm a big movie fan, and I want to make movies in every genre. I want to make my romantic comedy one day. View quote
James Wan
Horror has many iterations, many shades. Landing the perfect balance of melody, texture and sonics is the key to a great score. Some horror films require a huge, aggressive palette. Others are the complete opposite. Finding that musical happy place is what will make the movie from a score perspective. View quote
Michael Wandmacher
I'm so thankful that all that stuff made it to the screen, because a lot of the time studio executives say that there's no time, or ask why we should feel sympathy for this bad guy. I joke that I'm the romantic lead in the movie, I just happened to pick the wrong girl. Imhotep is kind of the tragic villain, I guess, and a lot of people have come up to me and said I was hating you, but then I reach a point when I was feeling sorry for you too. It's those different facets that help explain why this film is such a success. View quote
Arnold Vosloo
One of the first things I did when I came on, I said, "I do not want this Kong to be a quadruped. I want him to stand upright, I want a throwback to the 1933 film where he is a biped, because he is a monster. He's not just a big silverback gorilla, he's a movie monster.” So I wanted to stand him upright, I wanted to make him tall, and part of that is because I wanted him to feel like this fusion between a god, a man, and a beast. I wanted to make him big enough that, if any of us stood at this table and we looked up at this thing, towered over us, how big does that thing have to be for the first thing that your brain says is, "That's a god. I'm looking at a god.”. (Jordan Vogt-Roberts)
I was not a very good mother. I was always running out to do a movie or something. If I had to do it over, I would either have a career or children. I wouldn't do both unless I could work in my home. I spent 20 years feeling guilty, which is not a very nice emotion. View quote
Joanne Woodward
I'm really into acquiring film paraphernalia - that's my hobby. I love old movie posters, cameras and film reels. View quote
Sarah Gadon
That's what the internet is: it's like bombarding your eyeballs with these myriad blinking colour lights. It's like trying to watch a movie on your phone in the middle of Times Square. View quote
Michel Gondry
When I shoot actors, I have that dilemma. I want the actor to be good, and sometimes I have to push them to a place that isn't pleasant. I always think: 'Is it worth doing for the sake of the movie?' But I have to remember the bigger picture. View quote
