Film-Makers Quotes (page 6)

You have to edit the material. That assumes that some kind of a mind is operating in relation to the material. Not all minds are the same. Every aspect of filmmaking requires choice. The selection of the subject, the shooting, editing and length are all aspects of choice. Frederick Wiseman
Robert Wise quote: "My three Ps: passion, patience, perseverance. You have to do..."
My three Ps: passion, patience, perseverance. You have to do this if you've got to be a filmmaker. Robert Wise
Alex Winter quote: "I think filmmakers want their movies to be seen."
I think filmmakers want their movies to be seen. Alex Winter
The thing about film-making is I give it everything, that's why I work so hard. I always tell young actors to take charge. It's not that hard. Sign your own cheques, be responsible. Tom Cruise
Well it kind of is project to project because as a writer I think you always write to some degree about things that you know or things that happened - but my favourite filmmakers, my favourite movies of theirs tend to be the personal movies. Cameron Crowe
It's more like can I build a group of characters and can I tell some universal truths that feel real and aren't formulaic in the spirit of filmmakers gone by who've told American stories that were personal and universal as well. Cameron Crowe
You're seeing me develop, not only as a filmmaker if you've seen my earlier films, but you're seeing me kind of learn how to be a human, how my philosophy has evolved. David Cronenberg
The more unique your film is and unusual it is and difficult it is, the harder it is to get it financed. That's why a lot of good filmmakers are doing television. They do HBO movies. David Cronenberg
The filmmaking process is a very personal one to me, I mean it really is a personal kind of communication. It's not as though its a study of fear or any of that stuff. David Cronenberg
Guy Pearce quote: "I'm interested in the psychological exploration of human..."
I'm interested in the psychological exploration of human nature, and it just happens to come in the form of film-making. Guy Pearce
Bill Paxton quote: "When you start out as a filmmaker, you do parodies, because..."
When you start out as a filmmaker, you do parodies, because you can't really compete on a studio level. Bill Paxton
A lot of young filmmakers bring their movies to my dad because he always gives lots of good editing ideas and notes. He'd be a good film professor. Sofia Coppola
Francis Ford Coppola quote: "Most filmmakers can't afford to try something out that doesn't..."
Most filmmakers can't afford to try something out that doesn't work. Francis Ford Coppola
I believe that filmmaking - as, probably, is everything - is a game you should play with all your cards, and all your dice, and whatever else you've got. So, each time I make a movie, I give it everything I have. I think everyone should, and I think everyone should do everything they do that way. Francis Ford Coppola
Woody is so musical in his filmmaking. I've never worked with anyone I've trusted so completely. He won't let you hit a false note. Dianne Wiest
