“There's so many things I want to do. I want to work with great filmmakers, great actors, great scripts. And there's no reason for me to do anything short of that, because I'm 24, I don't have a family, I don't need to make tons of money, and I'm not dying to get famous.” WantNeedsReasonActorsDyingScriptsFilmmakerNo ReasonGreat ActorsGreat Film Author:Tobey Maguire
“One of the secrets of being a great photographic model, as it is for a great film actor, is that you let the camera in. It's an intimacy that the model or actor creates with the lens, that then transmits itself to the viewer.” FilmActorsSecretModelsCamerasIntimacyViewersLensesTransmitGreat FilmFilm Actors Author:Mary Harron
“I dont think any actor has the luxury of knowing exactly what scripts are going to turn out well and what ones arent. It would be wonderful to have that particular skill, and maybe people like Tom Cruise have it more than most, but you go into each project hoping that a good, if not great, film will come out the other end.” PeopleIfsThinkingWellsEndsWould BeFilmTurnsActorsKnowingWonderfulParticularSkillsProjectsScriptsLuxuryTomsCruiseGreat Film Author:Jonny Lee Miller
“Every time I go to Europe, I remember that James Dean never saw Europe, but yet I see his face everywhere. There's James Dean, Humphrey Bogart and Marilyn Monroe - windows of the Champs Elysees, discos in the south of Spain, restaurants in Sweden, t-shirts in Moscow. My life was confused and disoriented for years by his passing. My sense of destiny destroyed - the great films he would have directed, the great performances he would have given, the great humanitarian he would have become, and yet, he's the greatest actor and star I have ever known.” YearsRememberFilmFacesActorsGivenStarsKnownDestinySawsEuropeWindowPerformancesSouthHumanitarianPassingPassingsDestroyedShirtsConfusedRestaurantsSpainT ShirtDeanSwedenMoscowDiscoGreat FilmGreat PerformanceBogartGreat Humanitarian Author:Dennis Hopper
