Men can absent themselves from real life for their art more easily. Women are anchored into the quotidian business of getting food on the table making sure everybody's socks match the soccer gear is ready. I admire idealists but they're usually enabled by someone who holds the tether on their balloon who pays the bills and sweeps up after them.
When I got depressed I watched Bruce Lee movies. I learned everything from Bruce Lee.
I've choreographed all of my movies.
I really like children to watch my movies.
Even when I was a little kid I always said I would be in the movies one day and damned if I didn't make it.
I used to love to go to the movies - I'd see two in a row. A few times I even snuck into the second movie after it started... now that I think about it that's kind of like shoplifting! Needless to say I still love going to the movies but I don't sneak in anymore.
I played Winnie Cooper on 'The Wonder Years' from ages 12-18 and did a few other movies during some of the summers.
I do love the films I've done in the past. I work hard in my movies and my friends work hard and we're trying to make people laugh and I'm very proud of that.
I have realized that I hate going to the premieres of the movies that I'm in. Because I feel this tension after the movie is over that everyone feels obligated to say something nice to you. It's so unnatural and uncomfortable.
I made two movies before The Police had a hit record: I did Quadrophenia and a film called Radio On.
Well everyone likes movies when they're a little kid.
What people adore about superhero movies is the signal quality of the Christopher Nolan films - their complete lack of irony when it comes to the portrayal of heroism and the need for heroes to confront evil.
I don't want to make movies for kids and I don't want to make movies for adults either.
I wasn't allowed to go to movies when I was kid my father was a minister. 101 Dalmatians and King of Kings that was the extent of it.
Now on Friday nights if I want to go hang out with friends I go hang out with friends. If I want to stay in and be in the hot tub and have people over to watch movies I do that.
And what I like about it is it makes me happy and I think it makes a lot of people happy to go to the movies and to not think about the problems of the day or the problems of tomorrow or the yesterday and just go on for the ride and have the fun of losing oneself in a fantasy.
I've made so many movies playing a hooker that they don't pay me in the regular way anymore. They leave it on the dresser.
They say I can open movies and that's nice in that it puts into people's minds that women can do it. It's not just Kevin Costner not just Arnold Schwarzenegger. Not just the guys.
I think it's better to be involved in one or two movies a year.
If people are constantly reading about you and you're overexposed they've got no reason to go see your movies. Also it's not pleasant or nice to have your privacy invaded.
I will make action movies I think for a few more years another five years.
I grew up watching all these crazy movies European movies and stuff and I guess that I always laughed at things that were a little more offbeat.
Movies make you immortal and ageless.
I think that's what distinguishes Schmidt really. In the movies now so much of what is appealing to an audience is the dramatic or has to do with science fiction and Schmidt is simply human. There's no melodrama there's no device It's just about a human being.
I like to hang out with my friends. I love music. I like to go to the movies. I like to eat. I like to cook.
