The film and television industry is a realm of endless creativity, where art, technology, and storytelling converge. From actors to directors, writers to critics, many have shared their insights on the impact and magic of visual media. This collection of quotes captures the essence of the industry, offering unique perspectives on its power, challenges, and influence.
If you want to be an actor, you must have total, ruthless commitment to your art. Don't be ambitious for fame or TV or movies. Art is a jealous mistress and will brook no competitors. Study all the time. Never stop reading. Never stop learning speeches. It will fill you up - define and refine you.
Steven Berkoff
I once had a friend who did the hair for sci-fi movies, and after a particularly bad break-up I stupidly went to her salon and told her she could do anything she liked. She dyed the bottom cherry red and the top peroxide blonde.
Sally Phillips
I don't want to make movies for kids, and I don't want to make movies for adults either.
Kristen Stewart
I love watching old movies, reading and having some good meals. I have a very close group of friends and family. I try to spend time with the ones that I love and work as hard as possible.
Justin Bartha
I would just die if some little girl saw me jump into bed with someone in the movies, and then she did it and got AIDS and died.
T'Keyah Crystal Keymah
I was a very scared child. Not, you know, not so much of life but of the demons that lurked in the dark. And horror movies terrified me. You know, I'd love watching them but then at night, I would just be up in sweats all night.
Jordan Peele
Denzel Washington has a great sense of humor. He did all those 'Nutty Professor' movies.
Seth MacFarlane
I'm fascinated with old stories that you can read in newspapers that seem like catastrophe movies.
Gaspar Noe
Everyone remembers the pop-quiz hotshot bit from 'Speed' because it's extremely funny, and it's really smart and really witty. And the notion that action movies can have dialogue that pops just as well as the explosions is something that I hope more people continue to remember.
Graham Moore
I do sort of gravitate towards smaller, indie-type movies.
Kristen Wiig
You see all these movies of white men saving the world all the time.
Ludi Lin
I go to a lot of movies where people are all around me laughing, and I feel like I'm from outer space because I find it dangerous and stupid and horrible and degrading to women and all these things.
