People who LIKE movies have a favorite. People who LOVE movies couldn’t possibly choose.

I’m not a film buff. I don’t watch a lot of movies.

I hope to be 70 and sitting at the table with journalists, talking about my films.

My family was never cultural in that we never went to see plays, my mum wasn’t very into films.

I feel I’ve made the transition from model to actress, but I’m not that secure about it. Lauren Hutton, Jennifer O’Neill – we all know that a few films don’t mean all that much.

The films that I love are very straightforward stories, like really old-fashioned stuff.

If my films make one more person miserable, I’ll feel I have done my job.

I am a big fan of Adam Sandler and Ben Stiller, who have carved a niche for themselves. I think doing different kind of films gives you longevity and the ability to set yourself apart.

It’s funny how the colors of the real world only seem really real when you watch them on a screen.

We were trying to make a movie that was funny, but also trying to be smart about being funny. We just wanted to make people laugh,. If you want to make a comedy you just...

But no one should have the right to manipulate my films in the first place.

I think ‘Rockstar’ is more dear to me than any of my other films.

The trouble with Hollywood films is that they always have a pleasant ending.

For behaviorist films, that’s been much more useful – the change of technology – but for my kind of films, doing them on film is much better, because it’s more beautiful.

I haven’t got an opportunity to experiment with the dimensions of my moustache much. But yes, if the role demands, I’m ready to shave it off. I feel it’s good to have moustaches for South...

My directors of photography light my films, but the colours of the sets, furnishings, clothes, hairstyles – that’s me. Everything that’s in front of the camera, I bring you.

When I’m actually making a film and trying to find solutions, I like to watch making-of documentaries about huge films, like ‘Gladiator.’ That couldn’t be more apart from what I’m doing, but you see Ridley...

Usually, I make such small-budget films that I can’t afford to buy weather.

I’m really easily affected by horror films. I have pretty strong reactions to them.

Do we root for Michael Corleone in the ‘Godfather’ films? I think so, even if he is a monster.

That’s what the movies do. They don’t entertain us, they don’t send the message: ‘We care.’ They give us lines to say, they assign us parts: John Wayne, Theda Bara, Shirley Temple, take your pick.

A lot of Hollywood films tend to be bloated, bombastic, loud. At the same time, I do like the infrastructure of making a blockbuster; it’s like having a big train set.

But now I wish I could back to Stockholm to make international films there.

I would love to do films. It’s just the way things happened for me – I ended up doing a lot of TV.

It’s funny: I’ve been very successful and done a lot of films, and I don’t really have an agent – I don’t really pursue jobs, I let people come to me.

Even though I’ve done Hollywood films, I still don’t think of myself as a Hollywood actress.

For me with all this stuff, both the horror films and thrillers like this, the most interesting thing is what goes on inside people’s heads, … The rest is just the setting. She is sort...

An actor is just a part of a movie, but director – he is the movie.

There is also a strong following among the urbanites on the East Coast when it comes to martial arts films.

There were many, many other ‘Django’ films following mine, with other actors and directors, but there is only one ‘Django.’

‘Alien’ is one of my all-time favorite horror films – that has a great monster.

For me, the most absorbing films are those that address big questions and real ideas but embody them in small examples that we can appreciate and comprehend.

If they made films in Palm Beach, actors and actresses would be much better dressed.

It’s not easy for Chinese actors to do foreign films, and it’s not easy for foreign actors to do Chinese films.

The golden rule has always been to remake films that were not a success, if you saw something in them. To remake a movie that’s already a milestone offers audiences very little that they haven’t...

I’ve worked for 27 years nonstop in theater and films. That’s a lot of work.

I’ve been writing for years and developing my own films and editing with a friend of mine in Australia.

There’s nothing gratuitous about my films.

The physical journey in my films is indicative of the internal journey that my characters take.

I haven’t been to a movie for three months of Sundays. I gather from what Carolyn reports that Hollywood now produces false entertainment: unmitigated violence on the screen; snickering, laughter in the audience.

For seven years, I made films in the cinema verite tradition – photographing what was happening without manipulating it. Then I realised I wanted to make things happen for myself, through feature films.

I’m shy by nature and don’t like talking about myself, and would let my films do the talking.

The silent film has a lot of meanings. The first part of the film is comic. It represents the burlesque feel of those silent films. But I think that the second part of the film...

In Quebec, we’re less inhibited artistically, culturally, politically. We’re less focused on box office and comparing our films to the American films.

Films are all about decisions, and that’s what I love.

I’m very into fantasy films.

I’ve always described parts as tattoos. For actors our tattoos are in the form of films.

. . . push that neurotic girl . . . in front of the camera . . . and that whining mop would magically blossom into a warm, lovely, poised and confident actress.” Capra obviously...

I always say that I am a big fan of films but I am an even bigger fan of the filmmaking craft.

I’m hard to pin down. I tend to look different in films.
