About this Quote

This quote by Kyra Sedgwick talks to the absence of imagination and risk-taking in Hollywood movies. She recommends that Hollywood is driven by worry, which filmmakers are most likely to stick to the status quo than to take strong possibilities. This lack of imagination and risk-taking is not something that interests her. She suggests that Hollywood films are often formulaic and foreseeable, which filmmakers are not happy to take threats to produce something genuinely special and intriguing. This quote speaks with the requirement for more imagination and risk-taking in Hollywood films, and the need for filmmakers to press the borders and create something genuinely special.
