Clint Eastwood

Quotes About Films And Life #130916

Vittorio De Sica

Quotes About Films And Life #171328
#19. The terms of copyright last far too long: either the life of the author plus 70 years after death for a personal work or 95 years for a corporate work. That length doesn't encourage more authorship - it merely limits the speakers who could share powerful speeches, books, and films.

Gemma Arterton

Quotes About Films And Life #199187

Kara Hayward

Quotes About Films And Life #256356
#30. I am at home in many cultures. I live actively in three continents and I've done that for most of my life, so I just make films as I see the world, and that happens to speak to people. I do things that I want to do.

Mira Nair

Quotes About Films And Life #261030
#31. What I dislike about movie culture is that it often presents a parable of our problems - but the issues are all straightforward and the people are either nice or they're not. In real life, everyone falls between those perimeters, but not many American films operate in that grey area.

Julian Fellowes

Quotes About Films And Life #265855
#32. It's the reason we go to films and watch television: to escape the mundane nature of life and see another world and see ourselves in that other world. I think that's what sci-fi does so well.

James Cosmo

Quotes About Films And Life #296432
#34. I've seen men like you in Doris Day films, but I never thought they existed in real life ... The men who can't commit, who can't say 'I love you' even when they want to, who start to cough and sputter and change the subject. But here you are. A living, breathing specimen. Incredible.

Nick Hornby

Quotes About Films And Life #305114
#35. I am so picky about what films I get myself into because it's such an explosion of energy and commitment once you get in there, you destroy your life until you deliver these films. I never want to be in the position of making films that won't be a great use of 90 minutes of someone's life.

Lucy Walker

Quotes About Films And Life #323615
#36. Very rarely am I attracted to characters that are 'woe is me.' I'm not a big fan of women that have to be the victim and need to be saved, at all times. I don't necessarily think that's how it is, in real life, and I don't think that's how it should be in films.

Mila Kunis

Quotes About Films And Life #354029

Quotes About Films And Life #362744

Karen Black

Quotes About Films And Life #380954
#39. If someone pulls me down, I pull them down, as I don't feel I should live my life in the way other people want me to. If they have a problem with my films, I can rip off their films, be it comedy or their family dramas, which are low on content and have over-theatrical acting.

Emraan Hashmi

Quotes About Films And Life #399934

Danny Huston

Quotes About Films And Life #403876
#41. There are a lot of bad films out there. There's a lot of bad architecture out there, and I think sometimes it takes a lot of time to begin to see what's really good. And I think what the test seems to be is, what really sticks with you. And what really becomes a part of your life.

Nathaniel Kahn

Quotes About Films And Life #407129
#42. I've done four other films since 'Submarine,' so that's quite cool. It's just good to have people respect your work; I've never had that before. Yeah, my life has changed crazy. I'm a kid from a small town in south Wales, I play my Xbox usually and all that sort of stuff, and it's a whole new world.

Craig Roberts

Quotes About Films And Life #416577
#43. When you meet people that you know from other films - as often happens to me, and as tends to happens to you when you're an actor, you constantly meet people that you've seen in other films. But when it's people who've kind of had a seismic effect on your life, it's quite extraordinary.

Simon Pegg

Quotes About Films And Life #421489
#44. It was Vikram Bhatt and 'Raaz' that got me interested in the medium of cinema. Before that, I was like any other youngster dabbling with various things - modelling, films - without a definite direction or focus. Now that I'm working with all of them, life has come full circle for me.

Bipasha Basu

Quotes About Films And Life #429742

Margot Asquith

Quotes About Films And Life #478481
#48. I hate most people. And I don't want to, it's an awful way to be. But the human race gives me no comfort. I find myself turning to books and films for comfort still. It's repulsive, because one's life consists of people, not things.

Morrissey

Quotes About Films And Life #495560
#49. I like stories that have a social impact and social attributes to them. That's the whole reason we make films: to broaden our limited view of things and to see how life is evolving elsewhere.

Djimon Hounsou

Quotes About Films And Life #505901

Martin Scorsese

Quotes About Films And Life #582858
#56. I've always been a huge fan of thrillers like David Fincher's 'Se7en.' I am fascinated by the disturbing, dark underbelly of life. I find such films deeply engrossing. They delve deep into the human psyche, and that's a place worth exploring.

Emraan Hashmi

Quotes About Films And Life #599606
#57. That's how it is with relationships, it's a part of life, and all the great love songs and poems and films have been written by people who were standing where I was that morning as Simon shut the door. Doesn't make it any easier though.

Jane Green

Quotes About Films And Life #607539

Peter O'Toole

Quotes About Films And Life #621595

Steven Spielberg

Quotes About Films And Life #636545
#61. 'Control' had to do with my own life a lot, and that's why that seemed to be a film I could be the director of, because I had an emotional attachment to the whole story. And because of that experience, I feel that I can try other films. I didn't set out to become a director.

Anton Corbijn

Quotes About Films And Life #660729
#62. I watch 'Entourage.' I aspire the good life that they live and lead. Honestly, I am just trying to be me by trying to do good films, have fun at it and trying to work with good directors, and, of course, I am a bit of a silent party boy, also. I have my share of fun sometime, too.

Yuliya Snigir

Karen Allen

Quotes About Films And Life #686518
#68. I used to obsess on critical reactions to my films, and it's really not a healthy way to live your life, so my new take on it is simply, 'I hope people like it!' I'm not going to be looking at the tomato meter for at least a year! I was very lucky on '50/50' that most critics really liked it.

life, my life will cease to exist
at all. #LIFE OF LOVE (Film)

Gael Garcia Bernal

Quotes About Films And Life #985292
