Viggo Mortensen
“[On the role of an actor in film] It comes down to the fact that you supply the blue, and they supply the other colors and mix them with your blue, and maybe there's some blue left in the painting and maybe there isn't. Maybe there wasn't supposed to be any there in the first place. So have some fun and make a good blue and walk away.”
John Wayne
“I want to play a real man in all my films, and I define manhood simply: men should be tough, fair, and courageous, never petty, never looking for a fight, but never backing down from one either.”
Robert Mitchum
“Sure I was glad to see John Wayne win the Oscar … I'm always glad to see the fat lady win the Cadillac on TV, too.”
James Caan
“People wonder why first-time directors can make a brilliant picture, then suck on the second one. It's because they're a little terrified the first time. So they listen to all the experts around them. ”
Milla Jovovich
“From now on, I approach the cinema as a business woman. I intend to be in more action movies because, apart from Angelina Jolie, no other actress stands out in this genre.”
Jean Gabin
“I understood immediately that to get success I had to make for the front door, not for the back one.”
Giulietta Masina
“When he (husband, director Fellini) was working on an idea, I never asked him anything because he was very jealous about his work in the creative phase, however, he always came to look for me to show me his ideas, his scripts, his drawings, and asked me ”
Cary Grant
“I pretended to be somebody I wanted to be until finally I became that person. Or he became me.”
Ingrid Bergman
“I can do everything with ease on the stage, whereas in real life I feel too big and clumsy. So I didn't choose acting; acting chose me.”
Olivia Thirlby
“I’m often surprised where the emotion comes out in a scene, and usually I can’t plan it.”
Janusz Kaminski
“You can only light well for one camera angle, maybe 15 degrees. The way Steven (Spielberg) moves the camera leads to many compromises on my part, but I love it. That’s why I’m making films instead of taking stills.”
Rock Hudson
“I have no philosophy about acting or anything else. You just do it. And I mean that. You just do it. However, I can say that with ease after thirty-five years.”
Rooney Mara
“I always wanted to be an actor, but I was always fighting it. It never seemed that honorable to me, and I guess I was always afraid I might fail.”
