“Frankly speaking, I hate comparisons. Two individuals are doing two different films, playing two different characters: how can you compare them? It is not fair to get into ratings. It really doesn't matter what I think about other actresses; what matters is what the directors think of them when they are casting them in a project, because I think it's the director who's behind a successful piece of cinema.” ThinkingTwoDifferentMatterCharacterFilmHateIndividualBehindsSuccessfulPiecesDirectorsProjectsFairsI HateActressesCompareCinemaComparisonWhat MattersCastingRatingNot FairDifferent Characters Author:Katrina Kaif
“I was the enemy of the major studio. I believed in one man - one film. I believed one man should make the film. And I believed the director should be that one man. One man should do it - I didn't give a damn who. I just couldn't accept art as a committee. I could only accept art as an extension of an individual.” MenGivingShouldArtFilmIndividualAcceptingEnemyDirectorsMajorsStudiosDamnOne ManCommitteesExtensions Author:Frank Capra
“I just adored Peter Medak, the director. He's such a character, but he was so much fun. Some directors come in and they truly get angry about things.Peter was still in a fantastic mood. He's a delightful person. He threw a big party at the end of the pilot, which was so sweet. And his wife is an opera singer. He's just a very warm, crazy beautiful individual.” PersonsStillsEndsCharacterBigsBeautifulIndividualFunPartyWifeCrazySweetDirectorsAngryWarmSingersMoodFantasticPilotsOperaPeterDelightfulOpera Singers Author:Brigid Brannagh

“I’ve had unsatisfying experiences, but mostly it’s about communication, which is why I make an effort to talk to the director beforehand to make sure we see eye-to-eye as creative individuals. If [good] communication isn’t present, you can lose something and end up very unhappy.” IfsEndsEyeIndividualLosesEffortCreativeCommunicationDirectorsUnhappyGood Communication Author:Martin Starr
