“Dawn Of The Dead is about how we're just a country cannibalizing itself, turning into one shopping mall, and everyone at the mall is just brain-dead, wandering around. Capitalism gone awry, and the worst parts of human nature coming out. All these different things that people read into the films that are all there, very strong anti-Bush sentiments that went into making those films. It's great. I like it when people get it the second or third time, when someone else points it out to them. They don't realize it's been there all along. Those are my favorite movies.” PeopleHumansDifferentCountryFilmStrongRealizingBrainGoneWorstHuman NatureCapitalismThirdsMy FavoriteWanderDawnDifferent ThingsSentimentsShoppingComing OutVery StrongMallsThird TimeWandering AroundBrain Dead Author:Eli Roth
“A lot of people just go to movies that feed into their preexisting and not so noble needs and desires: They just go to action pictures, and things like that. But if you go to foreign films, if you go to documentaries, if you go to independent films, if you go to good films, you will become a better person because you will understand human nature better. Movies record human nature in a better way than any other art form, that's for sure.” PeopleIfsWayNeedsHumansPersonsArtActionFilmFormDesireRecordsHuman NatureIndependentNobleDocumentariesBetter WaysBetter PersonIndependent FilmGood Films Author:Roger Ebert

That's what acting is for me. It allows for people to experience things through the character, through the story.” PeopleWorldMeanCharacterFilmActingEmotionHuman NatureIncrediblesStorytelling Author:Tatiana Maslany
“You're watching us and you don't realize how much makeup and how much lighting is involved when we look good. We have a lot of help where we are. I don't think that it's healthy for young girls to be looking at these beauty magazines and watching TV and these shows and thinking [that's the standard]… there's more European attitude - you look at French film, Spanish film, they're a little more open to quirks and human nature.
