When you're an older woman [in a movie], you are the brunt of the joke.
Editing is the only process. The shooting is the pleasant work. The editing makes the movie, so I spend all my life in editing
Working on 'The Last Waltz' introduced me to Martin Scorsese, and I had been a movie bug since I was a young kid.
Cronenberg's a lot of fun, and that a lot of people don't know watching his movies. He doesn't take himself seriously. He's still reinventing himself.
Now the idea in the movie world is to make things the same. And in the TV world, the idea is to do something different, so. . . that's why I'm here!
Basically, you make another movie, and another, and hopefully you feel good about every picture you make. And you say, 'My name is on that. I did that. It's OK. ' But don't get me wrong, I still get excited by it all. That, I hope, will never disappear.
People vomitied at my movies; not because of the movie but because they were drunk. I took credit anyway.
I've always wanted to play Maria in West Side Story. My idol is Natalie Wood, and I love the movie, so I think a modern-day twist on it would be really neat.
It is odd there are many movies with many men. But generally movies have one woman, or maybe the older woman and the younger girl.
I can't remember ever staying for the end of a movie in which the actors wore togas.
We're going to do a challenge. I'm going to try and download every movie ever made and you are going to try to sign up for Obamacare - and we'll see which happens first.
I never got into this business thinking I'd be like a movie star.
I just realized the other day that Clara [in Aquarius] and I are now going to be apart year by year. She's still 65, and I'm 66 now. When you make a movie, it preserves you at a certain age, and it's so wonderful that Clara has preserved me at 65. People are talking about her age in a way that is positive and respectful, which is so wonderful.
I mean no film is beyond criticism, but I think we've made a very modest movie.
You know what I noticed when I was with Jacob? In your world, people can reach each other in an instant. There's the telephone, and the fax - and on the computer you can talk to someone all the way around the world. You've got people telling their secrets on TV talk shows, and magazines that publish pictures of movie stars trying to hide their homes. All those connections, but everyone there seems so lonely.
After all, tomorrow is another day.
There are a lot of movies made for nobody.
I don't think about being famous, really. Being an author, I don't generally get stopped as I walk down the street. It's not like being a movie star.
First of all, just knowing people who grew up in the movie business at that time, no one had Mexican maids.
I am what a romantic movie is to a profound thinker - a mere diversion, a comic interlude, something that is soon forgotten.
