"Tarantino is the coolest damn guy; he's just so much fun to work with. He might be the best director I've ever worked with. He just seems to know how to do it and he knows how to make you feel good about it. He's having so much fun you start having fun. You can't help it"

"To me the recognition of the audience is part of the filmmaking process. When you make a movie, it's for them"
Michel Hazanavicius, Director
"I couldn't say no to jobs and I couldn't say no to drugs. I'd get high from a movie, I'd be somebody else because I didn't particularly like me, so long as I had a script in my hand, I was okay. As soon as the movie was over, I didn't know what to do"
Brion James, Actor

Christina Aguilera, Musician
"Generally, Hollywood makes the same stories over and over. I've never wanted to do the same thing twice. If a script doesn't surprise me in some way, I simply can't commit to the project"
Sherilyn Fenn, Actress
"You make the movie through the cinematography - it sounds quite a simple idea, but it was like a huge revelation to me"
Nicolas Roeg, Director
"And later I thought, I can't think how anyone can become a director without learning the craft of cinematography"
Nicolas Roeg, Director
"It was immediately apparent that it was full of tricky ingredients to balance. In fact, I found it very intriguing. What held me back from saying yes to the producer was that I wasn't sure who could play Truman"
Peter Weir, Director
"Once a Bond fan, always a Bond fan"
Richard Kiel, Actor
"It's a risk casting anyone against type or what they're known to do. But there's one thing better than having a great actor, which is having a great actor who's never done what you're asking him to do. He's hungry to get out of the trailer every day and hungry to test himself"
Sam Mendes, Director
"The film industry needs to confront the physical footprint of the way films get made"
Edward Norton, Actor

Marcia Gay Harden, Actress
"In the happy scenes, there were really fun times. Sean would say really funny stuff because he likes to improv. I would want to laugh, but you are not allowed to do that during the take"
Dakota Fanning, Actress
"Nowadays the big Hollywood studios only make about three movies a year, and they cost about $200 million each. There's no room for error in that, and not a lot of room, I would think, for free expression"
Robbie Coltraine, Actor
"I think it's because it was an emotional story, and emotions come through much stronger in black and white. Colour is distracting in a way, it pleases the eye but it doesn't necessarily reach the heart"
Kim Hunter, Actress
"There are no crowds out there demanding to see smoking scenes in movies"
Joe Eszterhas, Writer
"Cinematography is infinite in its possibilities... much more so than music or language"
Conrad Hall, Artist

David Strathairn, Actor
"My interpretation of a strong director is someone who knows their story. That's what directors are, they're storytellers because they're directing where your focus is going to be as an audience"
Dennis Quaid, Actor
"I think the way it works is that when you're casting a movie, you usually want to work with people that you believe in"
Owen Wilson, Actor
"The sound is the key; audiences will accept visual discontinuity much more easily than they'll accept jumps in the sound. If the track makes sense, you can do almost anything visually"
Paul Hirsch, Politician
"The big difference is the size of the crew and the flexibility of shooting because of the size. I mean, it's crazy. So you can't improvise, you cannot suddenly do something that comes to mind, whereas in a small production you have much more flexibility"
Bille August, Director
"But I think Barry Sonnenfeld let his ego go out of control. He told me in a meeting that he had to do something to make it his film"
Robert Conrad, Director
"Generally I don't like doing remakes, but I think that's more in the cynical world of Hollywood where normally remakes are purely for commercial reasons"
Gerard Butler, Actor
"I think that acting involves doing your job so well that you are able to help the viewer identify with the character"
Ally Sheedy, Actress
"There were scenes that just for length purposes, and knowing that the attention span of kids is not great, don't make it much longer than about 90 minutes"

David Carradine, Actor
"I was involved in a web cartoon of Kung Fu with WB a few years back"
David Carradine, Actor
"My big fight is not in the movie and I don't understand that decision, but I know he's right about it, whatever it is. Quentin did not hire me because I'm a kung fu expert; he hired me because he liked to listen to me talk"
David Carradine, Actor
"Quentin is very organic; there was no way that he was going to put someone else's hand in there and anyway, my hands are kind of famous. It seemed right"
David Carradine, Actor
