Scenes Quotes (page 28)

A lot of the motivation for doing the 'Make 'Em Laugh' on SNL was because I had just finished shooting 'Inception,' where there were zero-gravity scenes and I got into really good shape and was training and did all these stunts. Coming off of that, that instilled me with the confidence to do 'Make 'Em Laugh.' Joseph Gordon-Levitt
Dexter Gordon quote: "The music scene is more competitive in the States."
The music scene is more competitive in the States. Dexter Gordon
I try to learn from both, from features and documentaries. In both cases you have to find a way to make the camera as discreet as possible, and flexible enough to be able to capture the moment when it happens. I know from documentary how to not have a preconceived idea of what the scene could be. Michel Gondry
Samuel Goldwyn quote: "The scene is dull. Tell him to put more life into his dying."
The scene is dull. Tell him to put more life into his dying. Samuel Goldwyn
Jeff Goldblum quote: "Even if I don't have a job, I work on plays and scenes."
Even if I don't have a job, I work on plays and scenes. Jeff Goldblum
I think every character actor at some stage likes to carry a film. It can be extremely liberating to just come in for a scene or two and do your thing. But I find it frustrating if I'm just doing little bits here and there for too long. Brendan Gleeson
I think good radio often uses the techniques of fiction: characters, scenes, a big urgent emotional question. And as in the best fiction, tone counts for a lot. Ira Glass
The English scene got more media attention with their emphasis on fashion, with the safety pins and all. There were some really good bands over there. The Sex Pistols were great. Greg Ginn
Punk rock really came out of N.Y. as a philosophy before the groups were ever recorded. I had a kind-of intellectual interest in the idea of creating a new scene that could be a grassroots thing. Greg Ginn
The writing is really hard. You're alone. It really pulls it out of you. You pull it out of your head. But when you're a director, you're shopping - you're picking this actor, you're picking this scene. It's like the most intense kinetic high-speed shopping of all time. You sit in a chair and it will all come rushing at you like a wind tunnel. Tony Gilroy
Tony Gilroy quote: "I'm trained to button scenes and round things off, and I get..."
I'm trained to button scenes and round things off, and I get rewarded for doing that. Tony Gilroy
James Franco is a Method actor. I respect Method actors, but he never snapped out of character. Whenever we'd have to get in the ring for boxing scenes, and even during practice, the dude was full-on hitting me. Tyrese Gibson
Mel Gibson quote: "If I've still got my pants on in the second scene, I think..."
If I've still got my pants on in the second scene, I think they've sent me the wrong script. Mel Gibson
Robin Gibb quote: "Everyone's looking to the urban scene for inspiration now."
Everyone's looking to the urban scene for inspiration now. Robin Gibb
I recently saw the movie about Ray Charles, and there's a scene where he falls down and the mother doesn't help him. She says, I don't want anyone to treat you like a cripple. I've fallen down before, and Molly will say, get up and just go. Teri Garr
