I wasn't that familiar with silent films. I didn't know, for example, how hugely popular silent films were in the 1920s, how people would go to the movies several times a week.
People aren't interested in paying $10 or $12 to go to the movies and to be lectured to politically. I'm not either. So I don't try to make those kinds of films.
With all the movies I've done, I still get recognized from my episode of 'Law & Order' more than anything else. It never fails.
I've made over 20 movies, and 5 of them are good.
I hate movies. They're so boring. So tedious.
As a kid growing up in a small town in Washington State, my only exposure to New York City was through movies. The town with its towering skyscrapers, fascinating people and teeming energy absolutely captivated me.
People shoot 2D movies and convert them and I never think they're as good. 3D is really a scientific process of laying out shots and picking rotations.
I'm a huge Woody Allen fan. Good movie, bad movie, it doesn't matter - I just like his movies.
I love the fans, and I respect the fans, and I want them to go out and support movies.
I manage to hide in my movies.
I’ve actually been in a lot of movies that involve sucking on fingers.
Television. That's where movies go when they die.
The best movies are simple.
I can be in 20 movies. But I'll never be an actor.
Honestly, I just like to make movies. The funnier the better.
What's interesting is that when you get into the post-war period, many of the narratives in books and movies conclude that if you killed Hitler, you're actually going to make history worse.
I just want to see a good movie. Fortunately, good movies come in all sorts of genres.
I know I can't play funny roles in movies. I tried, and it didn't work.
I am in so many movies that are on TV at 2:00 a. m. that people think I am dead.
I think the extremes are something that's really interesting to see coalesce in movies.
