“One day he [Wagner] was batting against a young pitcher who had just come into the league. The catcher was a kid, too . The pitcher threw Honus a curve ball, and he swung at it and missed and fell down. Looked helpless as a robin. I was kind of surprised, but the guy sitting next to me poked me in the ribs and said, 'Watch this next one.' Those kids figured they had the old man's weakness, you see, and served him up the same dish - as he knew they would. Well, Honus hit a line drive so hard the fence in left field went back and forth for five minutes.” MenWellsKindSaidHardKidsYoungGuyNextLeftLinesWatchesFiveMinutesFieldsOne DayWeaknessSittingBallsLeagueOld ManDishesHelplessFenceCurvesFive MinutesBack And ForthPitcherRobinsRibsBattingCatchersWagnerLeft Field Author:Burleigh Grimes

“a novel is not born of a single idea. The stories I've tried to write from one idea, no matter how terrific an idea, have sputtered out and died by chapter three. For me, novels have invariably come from a complex of ideas that in the beginning seemed to bear no relation to each other, but in the unconscious began mysteriously to merge and grow. Ideas for a novel are like the strong guy lines of a spider web.

“David Fincher is probably the best comprehensive director in terms of being a manger of a process that must drive forward. He has such confident command of cinema language and visual language and script and performance. He knows more about f-stops than any cameraman, he knows more about lighting than any gaffer, he is a wonderful writer, and he can give you a good line reading. Under pressure, he is the kind of guy who you will just dive in with and trust and follow because his vision is so intense.” KnowsGivingKindGuyReadingLanguageProcessTermLinesVisionWonderfulDirectorsPerformancesPressureScriptsIntenseCommandCinemaVisualsComprehensiveLightingUnder PressureCameraman Author:Edward Norton
“The idea was to take fine art and put it into the location of the movie scripts. The script itself is collage - some of the lines come from actual movies and I've written others to make the text work with the found image. In this way, the details of old dead guys' paintings (from the collection of the Städel Museum in Frankfurt, where this work will be exhibited in relation to the historical paintings) become illustrations of the movie scripts. I found this mélange of high art and Hollywood amusing.” WayArtIdeasGuyFoundLinesWrittenPaintingFineHollywoodRelationHistoricalScriptsDetailsCollectionsMuseumsLocationAmusingFine ArtsIllustrationCollagesHigh ArtFrankfurt Author:John Baldessari
