“I think in L.A., in terms of the music scene, it's a really strange place. It's really hard to get the feeling that something's happening, or the feeling that something can make it out of there.” ThinkingHardFeelingsTermStrangeSceneHappeningsStrange Places Author:Aleksa Palladino
“There are times when I want to be plainspoken about my feelings in a song. But there are other times when it's really good to try and get my head around different kinds of song structures, or maybe I might get turned on by trying to write a song that would fit in this one scene in a movie. And by the end of all this, you just end up with a bunch of different ideas. And songs are really just ideas.” WantWritingTryingKindIdeasDifferentEndsFeelingsMightSongFitSceneStructureBunchDifferent KindsDifferent Ideas Author:Ryan Adams

“I don't particularly like the idea that there's an arc to the story and that therefore in this scene you have to convey this bit of information or emotion. I like more the feeling that, of course, there is a shape to the story, but that each scene should feel right, should be true at that moment, and that gradually you accumulate these moments of truth until you get enough of them together that it becomes a story that's interesting.” FeelsShouldIdeasEnoughMomentsStoriesFeelingsTogetherCoursesBitsInterestingEmotionInformationSceneShapesBeing TrueThat MomentArcsFeels RightMoment Of Truth Author:Michael Winterbottom
“I'm just aware of what I'm thinking and feeling but I do obviously have to get that to the back of the auditorium.

“Still I should paint my own places best; painting is with me but another word for feeling, and I associate "my careless boyhood" with all that lies on the banks of the Stour; those scenes made me a painter, and I am grateful; that is, I had often thought of pictures of them before ever I touched a pencil, and your picture ['The White Horse'] is one of the strongest instance I can recollect of it.” ShouldMadeStillsI CanFeelingsLyingMy OwnWhitePaintingSceneHorseGratefulPaintPainterInstanceTouchedStrongestAssociatesPencilsCarelessI Am GratefulBoyhoodWhite Horse Author:John Constable
“As a child, I saw this beautiful film, Dracula's Daughter, and it was with Gloria Holden and was a sequel to the original Dracula. It was all about this beautiful daughter of Dracula who was an artist in London, and she felt drinking blood was a curse. It had beautiful, sensitive scenes in it, and that film mesmerized me. It established to me what vampires werethese elegant, tragic, sensitive people. I was really just going with that feeling when writing Interview With the Vampire.

“The fun of being a supervisor is that you kind of get to shape the film as a whole rather than crafting a complete scene.

“It [the scene] can be something given to you and you go, "Ah this is a good idea, I can work with this." Sometimes it cuts right across your instinct and that's when I might resist.

I'll try to make it work but I got to let you know."” IfsThinkingKnowsTryingLooksI CanImportantIdeasSometimesFeelingsMightGivenCuttingSceneDirectorsInstinctGood Ideas Author:Ralph Fiennes
“The Nazis, for him, are merely available movie tropes--articulate monsters with a talent for sadism. By making the Americans cruel, too, he escapes the customary division of good and evil along national lines, but he escapes any sense of moral accountability as well. In a Tarantino war, everyone commits atrocities. Like all the director's work after 'Jackie Brown,' the movie is pure sensation. It's disconnected from feeling, and an eerie blankness--it's too shallow to be called nihilism--undermines even the best scenes.” WellsWarFeelingsEvilLinesMoralTalentScenePureDirectorsAvailableMonstersCommitBrownGood And EvilAccountabilityDivisionSensationsNaziShallowNihilismAtrocitiesDisconnectedJackieSadismTarantinoEerieTropesBlanknessJackie Brown Book:Do the Movies Have a Future?
