If you go to business school, and you put a product out there in the world, and it's working, the logic is to keep putting the same product out there. And I think that really bumps up against the creative process - and moviemaking, generally. And I think that our company really pushes against that.

Jason Blum

There's so much standing around and waiting with moviemaking!

Alexandra Bracken

But, you always have to listen to everyone, because I'm not always right and other people have great ideas, too. I think that makes great moviemaking.

Baran bo Odar

The thing that I love about moviemaking is how many people it takes to make it.

Brie Larson

I think it's always good for the author to stay a good cattle prod's distance from the actual moviemaking.

Carl Hiaasen

In Hollywood, moviemaking used to be about escaping reality to go to the movies.

Chris Kattan

It goes back to a style of moviemaking I remember seeing as a child, in movies like The Man With The Golden Arm, which I think was shot all on a sound stage.

Debbie Allen

When I cast someone in a movie, I have to absolutely trust who they are as a human being. Trust is the intangible of moviemaking.

Derek Cianfrance

Amazon may be the only studio that's run by people who come out of making independent movies, real hands-on moviemaking.

Doug Liman

I think American cinema, particularly, has become so disposable. It's not even cinema, It's just moviemaking.

Eriq La Salle

Moviemaking is just really neat, and I really like doing that. I'd like to get into it more, but in terms of my role in all of this and in terms of the gift that God has given me, I had to come to the conclusion that my strength is as a storyteller, creating the story.

Frank Peretti

It's like trying to be a traffic cop and write a poem at the same time. You need an executive head to handle all the vast paraphernalia of moviemaking. You need another, more sensitive head to get the delicate human emotional values you are trying to put on film.

George Stevens

My grandpa told me, 'Learn to love anxiety, because it never goes away in moviemaking.'

Gia Coppola

If I were a young man today, I might be lured into the moviemaking industry. You can really make a statement there.

James A. Michener

If you go to business school, and you put a product out there in the world, and it's working, the logic is to keep putting the same product out there. And I think that really bumps up against the creative process - and moviemaking, generally. And I think that our company really pushes against that.

Jason Blum

I grew up on movie sets, I'm comfortable on sets. A movie set is like a circus. I don't understand why moviemaking has to be such an insane environment.

Jason Reitman

I have an issue with the commercial aspect of moviemaking: I don't see why a movie can't make a lot of money and also be good.

Joel Edgerton

I've been writing plays since the seventies and only came to moviemaking when I basically realized that I needed some money to pay the rent. I started to watch films with an eye to figuring out how to write them.

John Patrick Shanley

You have to live in order to have something to write about - you get caught up in moviemaking and celebrities and money, and it's very intoxicating, but it doesn't give you what you need as a writer. You have to do something else for that.

John Patrick Shanley

With moviemaking, the audience always has to keep asking, 'What happens next?' If you have the wrong piece of music over a scene, people aren't going to get the scene. If you have the wrong camera angle, people aren't going to pay attention. That's as much a part of the process as getting people to talk to you.

Josh Fox

On the whole, the politics of moviemaking is something that actors are kind of blissfully ignorant of.
