Classic Film Sayings

#1. For Instagram, people use cameras ranging from high-end DSLRs, point-and-shoots, classic film cameras, and their smartphones. I personally like to use my iPhone because I know I will always have it with me.

Connor Franta

#2. I did a film called 'Black Dynamite' that was very, very funny. That seems to be a film that's kind of a cult classic.

Kevin Chapman

#3. I'd never studied film. I had movies that I loved and movie stars that I looked up to, but I really had not seen a lot of the great classic films that he felt like he wanted me to see before I took on such a huge role.

Mary Steenburgen

#4. You can't get anymore classic than being a part of a Disney animated film. To me, that's something I can have in my back pocket for the rest of my life. I'll be able to show it to my kids. I'll be walking around Disneyland, and it'll be bizarre to shake hands with Rapunzel.

Mandy Moore

#5. I think the book struck me in a few ways that I thought very interesting to pick it as my first martial arts film. It has a very strong female character and it was very abundant in classic Chinese textures.

Ang Lee

#6. That's what I like about film-it can be bizarre, classic, normal, romantic. Cinema is to me the most versatile thing.

Catherine Deneuve

#7. How may a mortal, face and defeat the Kraken

Beverley Cross

#8. I'll definitely say that, before film school, I didn't have much of a film-history background. I didn't know much about classic cinema.

Cary Fukunaga

#9. The act of seeing any film generally is you knowing more than the characters, even if it's the classic Hitchcock shot of two people talking and a bomb being under the table. Part of the pleasure of it is seeing where people go wrong, and the irony of situations.

Richard Ayoade

#10. I didn't fall into the category of the 'classic Bond girl.' I had short hair - and no Bond girl before me ever had. They put me in a wig at the beginning of the film, and then had my character cut her hair to pretend to be someone else. That was to explain why my hair was short.

Carey Lowell

#11. 'The Goonies' is classic. That's, like, the movie I bring with me if I go out of town for a long time, because it just makes me think of the best times I've seen it with my friends growing up. Dude, everybody knows that movie, everybody watches that film. Best family film ever made.

Logan Lerman

#12. I'd like to do a piece of Shakespeare. Any upcoming Shakespeare film. Just a bit to say I did a classic.

Jim Varney

#13. I would trade many an art-film classic for the final exchange between Redford and Streisand in front of the Plaza.

Molly Haskell

#14. It's sad that women characters have lost so much ground in popular movies. Didn't 'Thelma and Louise' prove that women want to see women doing things on film? Thelma and Louise were in a classic car; they were being chased by cops; they shot up a truck - and women loved it.

Robin Quivers

#15. The advent of DVD/Blu-ray reissues of classic Hollywood and foreign films has been a boon to film buffs, who can now study their favorites in all their glistening detail and restored palettes.

James Wolcott

#16. I'd always wanted the show to be more reality based science fiction, something along the lines of The Day the Earth Stood Still, which I consider to be the classic science fiction film.

Gil Gerard

#17. I hadn't watched any Hitchcock movies when I made 'Tom at the Farm,' except for 'Vertigo' when I was 8 years old. I don't have a sophisticated film knowledge, but I have seen the legacy of classic movies in broader entertainment.

Xavier Dolan

#18. One of the main reasons I am so drawn to Hitchcock is that he planned his shots way in advance on story-boards, which he designed like classic paintings (he was an art connoisseur). It's why he found shooting on set boring - because he had already composed the film in his head.

Camille Paglia

#19. You look up after many years and you find that a film has become a classic because it's meaningful to people and alive, decade after decade.

Woody Allen

#20. When I was in school, and even after, I did a lot of classic plays, and I guess it sort of extended into film.

Andre Holland

#21. He looked just perfect to play Dorian Gray in a film version of Oscar Wilde's novel. Young, graceful, and indecently fresh and handsome, he could easily have worn a badge that said READY FOR DEBAUCHERY!

Sergei Lukyanenko

#22. Personally, I consider 'Titanic' the most brilliant example of successful counterprogramming; the film actually countered itself by embedding an epic chick flick within a classic disaster movie.

Diablo Cody

#23. The scariest movie I have ever seen, and my favorite horror film is, 'The Exorcist.' It is a must-see horror/thriller classic. I watch it every couple of years.

Keegan Allen

#24. I am a fan of movies and there is something about watching film that is burned into celluloid for all time that is now a piece of history. You go watch, being a fan of classic films and my children and their children are going to be watching these movies.

Edward Zwick

#25. If you are going to remake a film, you may as well remake a classic.

Liev Schreiber

#26. I watch all the classic films that film people say that you ought to have seen, and I try to watch things in the cinema when they come out, just to keep my eye on the competition. I'm bored when I'm not working.

Sam Riley

#27. My dad had a commercial film company, so he had a videotape player before anyone. So he got Mel Brooks movies or Citizen Kane or some classic old movies. And every summer the revival house in Evanston would show the great films from the '50s and '60s and '70s.

John Cusack

#28. What man can quote a scene from the 1939 film classic? That does not happen in real life, hell, it doesn't even happen in books. I halted hastily in the middle of the parking lot. Of course - it was obvious as a hooker at a debutant ball - Hunter. Was. Gay.

Genna Rulon

#29. I'd like to do a cowboy film. I suppose I've come close to it on occasion, but not really to a classic cowboy film.

Sean Bean

#30. Never say never, for if you live long enough, chances are you will not be able to abide by the simplest of such injunctions.

Gloria Swanson
