Screenplay Quotes

Screenplays I didn't really care about, journalism, travel books, getting my writer friends to write about their dreams or something. I just determined to write the books I had to write. Kazuo Ishiguro
So I have 8 to 10 screenplays written and unproduced. And frankly, some of them are my favorite stories. I have a Western version of The Count Of Monte Cristo where the count has a clockwork hand. I have a screenplay called Mephisto's Bridge about a Faustian deal with the devil. I love them all. Guillermo del Toro
A screenplay is not a finished product; a novel is. A screenplay is a blueprint for something - for a building that will most likely never be built. Nicholas Meyer
Kate DiCamillo quote: "I didn't know anything about writing a screenplay, but somehow..."
I didn't know anything about writing a screenplay, but somehow I ended up rewriting a screenplay. Kate DiCamillo
Well, you just know, as a writer, I didn't really write one of the five best screenplays of the year. There were lots of brilliant screenplays; I was just one of the lucky ones who got nominated. Patrick Marber
I just finished a novel, and I'm back kind of noodling on the screenplays. Screenplays are tough. I am making music, I'm just not sure what kind of music it is or where it's going. Michael Nesmith
What will you do?"Oh, hell, I'll write a novel about writing the screenplay and making the movie."What are you going to call it?"Hollywood."Hollywood?"Yes..."And here it is. (Hollywood, pg. 239) Charles Bukowski
End production today. Wrap party as usual a little sad. Slow danced with Scarlett. Broke her toe. Not my fault. When she dipped me back, I stepped on it. Penlope and Javier anxious to work with me again. Said if I ever come up with another screenplay to try and find them. Goodbye drink with Rebecca. Sentimental moment. Everyone in cast and crew chipped in and bought me a ballpoint pen. Woody Allen
Just read this fabulous screenplay. A remake of Camus's The Stranger with Meursault as a bi break-dancing punk rocker. Randy showed it to me. I loved it. Randy thinks "basically unfilmable" and that filming an orange rolling around a parking lot for three hours would draw a bigger audience. Bret Easton Ellis
Christopher Meloni quote: "I've written a couple screenplays and half-finished plays."
I've written a couple screenplays and half-finished plays. Christopher Meloni
Rachel Griffiths quote: "I'm developing some screenplays at the moment with my..."
I'm developing some screenplays at the moment with my Australian producer. Rachel Griffiths
Normally you read a screenplay - and I read a lot of them - and the characters don't feel like people. They feel like plot devices or cliches or stereotypes. Joseph Gordon-Levitt
I did all my directing when I wrote the screenplay. It was probably harder for a regular director. He probably had to read the script the night before shooting started. Preston Sturges
I don't care who you are. When you sit down to write the first page of your screenplay, in your head, you're also writing your Oscar acceptance speech. Nora Ephron
If I want to write a movie, I'll write a screenplay, but if I have an idea for a book, it's something that I think can only be done novelistically. Bret Easton Ellis
