“The first thing you notice about women in Hollywood, besides their low percentage of body fat, is how few are married.

“The creative process is a very collaborative process. I know it might seem that way because so much ink is spilled and the media is obsessed with business and numbers and studios... but filmmakers don't think of it that way. We just go off and we tell our stories. It's the same torture that we adore, it's the same torture that our forefathers endured making movies in the golden era of Hollywood.

“Hollywood is still the cradle of many myths, including the one of eternal youth. I find it odd that the very notion of desire, when applied to a woman over 40, is turned into a pathology or a mockery in a number of films. But Hollywood is not the only place to blame, by far. This is just a rendition, possibly magnified by the power of movies, of a general state of things, social, cultural and political.” StillsStatesFilmPoliticalDesireSocialNumbersYouthEternalHollywoodBlameNotionIncludingMythOddCradleMockeryPathologyEternal Youth Author:Anne Fontaine

“Back in the Bruce Lee era, and in my era, Kung-Fu stirred up a kind of frenzy, and many people were learning martial arts from us. But about a decade ago, Hollywood began bringing in a number of our action choreographers, including two from my own stunt crew, where they became martial arts directors. Now, a decade later, Hollywood has learned it all, so when you look at the action films they're making now, they all use our action, our martial arts, and then add to that their own technology which is ten times better than ours, and it has to leave us dumbfounded: how did they film that?” PeopleLooksKindArtTwoUseActionFilmMy OwnNumbersTechnologyDirectorsTenHollywoodAddIncludingDecadesErasMartial ArtsCrewOur ActionsFrenzyChoreographersKung FuAction FilmsArt Director Author:Jackie Chan
