I prefer to live in the country where it's quiet. Woody Allen movies there are dubbed into Italian. - Patricia Highsmith ...I might mention my belief that girls who like Woody Allen movies are nicer girls than girls who don't.. - Adam Levin

I figure you're only here for a matter of moments. Ever since I was a kid watching movies I've always wanted to make people laugh or have some sort of emotional reaction. - Tim Conway I began acting at age eight, but if you don't stay on your game then people pass on you. Being on a show, it's a little easy to get comfortable, so I'm trying to get back on it. I'm taking some acting classes and watching movies, and I'm just trying to stay up with other actors. - Jason Dohring I always knew I wanted to be a character in the movies. When I was growing up, I had to have a lot of surgery, and I spent a lot of time recovering at home and in the hospital. Watching movies took me away from my own problems and gave me a total escape. - Josh Ryan Evans I like wearing a blindfold while watching movies, so that I can focus on the dialogue. My favorite flicks are the silent movies. - Jarod Kintz In high school, I had fun in my academic clubs, watching movies with my...

I love turning my daughter on to old movies. - Susie Bright I love old movies. The '40s theatre pace is fantastic. - Yancy Butler Nostalgia, the vice of the aged. We watch so many old movies our memories come in monochrome. - Angela Carter People feel the worst film I made was 'Jack.' But to this day, when I get checks from old movies I've made, 'Jack' is one of the biggest ones. No one knows that. If people hate the movie, they hate the movie. I just wanted to work with Robin Williams. - Francis Ford Coppola Old movies are black-and-white; they've got good guys and bad guys. The thing was, I didn't want to live in the past anymore. It was time for my life to go full color. - Eileen Cook I loved old movies as a kid, so I always watched old movies. - Keith David In old movies, the cinematography is a thousand times better than anything today. Writing, a thousand times better. - John Kricfalusi The body lay outside an abandoned, boarded-up theater....

My mother had to send me to the movies with my birth certificate, so that I wouldn't have to pay the extra fifty cents that the adults had to pay. - Kareem Abduljabbar No sooner than I did take it seriously, I had million-selling hits and movies with John Wayne. - Frankie Avalon If I never do another movie, I will have had the privilege of working on one of the big Hollywood movies with top people, creating a world that can only be described as totally cinematic. - Christine Baranski Movies without meaningful dialogue play well all over the world. The Apostle is probably the best movie of the year, but it won't do squat in Korea. - Robert Benton In LA I was watching At the Movies with Ebert and Roper, it was, nice to see them differentiate between the subject matter and the art form of making the film, and they both gave it thumbs up, and I was kind of pleased at their honesty as far as reviewers go. - Michael Berryman I've done movies with a sword before. But I haven...

There are movies that require fantasy and slightly more fantastical acting. Lines that are good for certain movies, in real life circumstances, would be absolutely unbelievable things to really say, and you would look at these people like they're freaks for conversing that way. But somehow for certain styles of movies, it works, and it seems fine. - Christian Bale Karate is a form of martial arts in which people who have had years and years of training can using only their hands and feet make some of the worst movies in the history of the world. - Dave Barry We work very cost effective and I sell my movies in 100 territories on my own. - Uwe Boll I never really got nightmares from movies. In fact, I recall my father saying when I was three years old that I would be scared, but I never was. - Tim Burton January is the garbage can of movies in America, directly after all the Oscar contenders have been out. - Michael Caine You have to read scripts and audition and develop relati...

I was in television drama, which is a first cousin to the movies, and I trust myself to make the right decisions. - Lee Child Enough, a person might say, if that person lived in the civilized world, the world of movies and television and fair play and decent restraint. But Reacher didn't live there. He lived in a world where you don't start fights but you sure as hell finish them, and you don't lose them either, and he was the inheritor of generations of hard-won wisdom that said the best way to lose them was to assume they were over when they weren't yet. - Lee Child Everybody has their own America, and then they have pieces of a fantasy America that they think is out there but they can't see...So the fantasy corners of America...you've pieced them together from scenes in movies and music and lines from books. And you live in your dream America that you've custom-made from art and schmaltz and emotions just as much as you live in your real one. - Andy W...

It seems like the studios are either making giant blockbusters, or really super-small indies. And the mid-level films I grew up on, like 'Back to the Future' and all those John Hughes movies, the studios aren't doing. It's hard to get them on their feet. - Chris Evans It's funny, like 15 years ago when I was a kid doing all the John Hughes movies, I remember Bruce Willis was the only guy who was transitioning from television into film. - Anthony Michael Hall

If I never do another movie, I will have had the privilege of working on one of the big Hollywood movies with top people, creating a world that can only be described as totally cinematic. - Christine Baranski I think that I used to love Hollywood movies. I remember great phases and moments. But, unfortunately, now is not the moment. - Bernardo Bertolucci I think film had a terrible effect on horror fiction particularly in the 80s, with certain writers turning out stuff as slick and cliched as Hollywood movies. - Poppy Z Brite I began to feel that the drama of the truth that is in the moment and in the past is richer and more interesting than the drama of Hollywood movies. So I began looking at documentary films. - Ken Burns There is no doubt that to the ancients of circa 100 A.S., games implied bloodshed; but gladiators' hand-to-hand combats to the death featured in Hollywood movies are overdone, since gladiators were splendid physical specimens who took a long time to be sele...

For true downtime, I enjoy going for light runs, having drinks with friends and going to the movies with my husband. - Emily Giffin I see a lot of movies. I love films as a spectator, and that's never obscured by the part of me that does the work myself. I just love going to the movies. - Daniel Daylewis She needed Jay to go with her. Because despite her bold words about doing it by herself, it was all just a bluff. She really wasn't sure if she could do it on her own. "All right," he finally agreed, flashing her the same stupid grin that always made her heart stutter, even though he still seemed uncertain. "How about we start by going to the movies tonight? We can make sure the theater is safe. - Kimberly Derting By going to the movies, and because of other things, too, going to college, making a wide variety of friends, moving around traveling, I became a lot more open-minded than the heritage I was born into might have suggested. - Roger Ebert When I was ...

Most people would rather stay home and watch Casablanca for the fourth time or the 10th time on Turner Classic Movies than go see Matrix 12 or whatever the hell the flavor of the month is. - Joseph Bologna As long as we have Netfix, Turner Classic Movies, Amazon, YouTube, and bookstores, there is no excuse ever to lack inspiration. - Tim Gunn

If you look at a lot of animated movies, they don't pay attention to how things move through space. - Brad Bird I do enjoy animated movies. - Nicolas Cage I spent much of my later childhood and adolescence very, very involved and interested in art, and particularly in animated movies. - Stanislav Grof I have to say I regretted giving up animated movies. - Stanislav Grof There's a whole psychological reason for those cartoons about good against evil. We have "Superman" and all those other hero people, so that we can go out into life and try to be something. I've got most of Disney's animated movies on video-tapes, and when we watch them. Oh, I could just eat it, eat it. [...] Jimmy Cricket, Pinocchio, Mickey Mouse these are world-known characters. Some of the greatest political figures have come to the United States to meet them. - Michael Jackson One thing I always heard from the begining when I talked about this being a movie - was that the rule is tha...
