“In a way, I think that the movie Fight Club [1999] did a weird, negative thing to boxing, culturally. I mean, it is sort of similar to what has happened to the novel. For however many good novels are written, the novel itself has completely lost its place.” ThinkingMeanFightingNovelNegativeBoxing Author:James Toback
“I've struggled seriously to make movies with very little money, that I write, that I direct, that mean my life to me. The idea that I would offer a part to anyone for any other reason than that he or she was gonna be the best of anyone I could find is so disgusting to me. I don't give my best friends parts unless they deserve them. Ever.” GivingWritingMeanReasonDeserveDirectBeing The BestDisgustingMy Best Friend Author:James Toback
