“Some film actors want to sit back and look at every scene and all that crap. No, you're an actor - tell the story, and when it's told, there's another one to tell.” WantLooksStoriesFilmActorsSceneCrapFilm Actors Author:Clarke Peters
“It's disingenuous to say that criticism doesn't get to you or you don't hear it or that you ignore it. When everybody says, 'That's crap. I hated that,' you hear it. But it's much, much worse when they're right: when you feel that it is an absolute piece of tosh. I made the film I wanted to make, so you just have to find a way of getting over it.” WayFeelsMadeWantedFilmPiecesCriticismAbsolutesHatedOver ItCrapDisingenuousGetting Over It Author:Stephen Daldry
“After directing awhile, you get an instinct about it, but you have to be able to trust your own feelings. Invariably, two-thirds of the way through a film, you say, "Jeezus, is this a pile of crap! What did I ever see in it in the first place?" You have to shut off your brain and forge ahead, because by that time you're getting so brainwashed. Once I commit myself to a film I commit myself to that ending, whatever the motivations and conclusions are.” WayFirstsTwoFeelingsAbleFilmMotivationBrainThirdsInstinctCommitConclusionCrapBrainwashed Book:Clint Eastwood: interviews Source: Clint Eastwood: interviews
