“I'm scared of myself. I think I'd be a bad driver. I'm scared of cars, period. I've had too many friends killed now, and I've seen too many people killed in my life when I drove across the country when I was 12. I'm sure that has a lot to do with it. If you see a few real dead bodies with brains on the pavement, it does a lot to change your attitude. It means you can get it too. I've had a lot of relatives killed. I've had a lot of dear friends killed. It's stupid. The whole activity is stupid.” PeopleIfsThinkingMeanDoeRealCountryWholeBodyBrainAttitudeCarStupidPeriodsActivityDearScaredDriversDear FriendPavementMany FriendsChange Your Attitude Author:Ray Bradbury
“I like to shoot beautiful things. My two previous movies were one in the '60s, the other one in the '50s, and this one is in the '20s. This is a period that's very cinegenic. The cars, the props, the suits, the haircuts, the dresses, everything, and it gives you pleasure to compose frames with that material. The music, I really love jazz, so for me, when you have good materials and nice things, it's very pleasant.” GivingTwoBeautifulPleasureNiceCarMaterialsPeriodsDressesJazzSuitsPleasantBeautiful ThingsNice ThingsPropsHaircuts Author:Michel Hazanavicius

“I was turning 20 during my first record. Those decade birthdays always kind of cause me, it seems, to reflect, look back, and then look forward.

“Everything is just make believe. They're just different versions of make believe. I love the period of this movie [The Finest Hours]. I love the '40s. I love the '50s.

“I haven't done it by myself at all. I've been surrounded by a really, really good crew of all ages. I think it's important to have a good age range in the crew so that some of us have experienced that period, or something close to that. But the script, of course, is really inspiring and you just have to trust that. Sometimes on film a glass can be as big as a car, so if the details are right, then they take up as much space on screen as the streets that we didn't have a chance to show as London really has changed since then.” IfsThinkingImportantSometimesDoneShowsBigsAgeFilmCoursesChanceSpaceStreetsCarHavensChangedPeriodsScriptsGlassesDetailsLondonScreensRangeCrewReally Inspiring Author:Lone Scherfig
“[Buckminster Fuller] started talking about it far enough afterwards, an audience that was far enough from when they - when the air flow and the Zephyr and these cars in the time period that were made by mainstream automakers. It was far enough in the future, far enough after that point that nobody really bothered to fact-check.” MadeEnoughFactsTalkingAudienceAirCarPeriodsFlowChecksMainstreamBotheredTime PeriodsBuckminster FullerZephyr Author:Jonathon Keats
