We Only Have Two Hours To Change

Art Films Aren't Necessarily Photography. It's Feeling. If We Can Capture A Feeling Of A People, Of A Way Of Life, Then We Made A Good Picture.

Ricardo Montalban Is To Improvisational Acting What Mount Rushmore Is To Animation.

I Have The Confidence That I Can Take Anybody And Have Them Give A Good Performance, Because I Don't Think There's Anything To Acting Except Expressing, Being Able To Converse. So If I Can Just Convince Somebody Not To Clean Themselves Up, And Not To Be Someone That They're Not, And Just Be What They Are In Given Circumstances, That's All That Acting Is To Me, And I Don't Think It's Very Difficult.

I’ve Never Seen An Exploding Helicopter. I’ve Never Seen Anybody Go And Blow Somebody’s Head Off. So Why Should I Make Films About Them? But I Have Seen People Destroy Themselves In The Smallest Way, I’ve Seen People Withdraw, I’ve Seen People Hide Behind Political Ideas, Behind Dope, Behind The Sexual Revolution, Behind Fascism, Behind Hypocrisy, And I’ve Myself Done All These Things. So I Can Understand Them. What We Are Saying Is So Gentle. It’s Gentleness. We Have Problems, Terrible Problems, But Our Problems Are Human Problems.

No Matter How Old You Get, If You Can Keep The Desire To Be Creative, You're Keeping The Man-child Alive.
