I am not a cult director at all. I make Hollywood movies.
The lead actor, along with the director, plays a big role in what the vibe will be on set, and that's a huge responsibility.
Films should involve a director's idiosyncrasies as much as possible I think.
I am a very impatient director.
It's a writer's or director's role to be cerebral, whereas for an actor it should be a visceral, gut thing. When the action starts, it's best to turn the brain off and let it become an instinctual thing.
The senior director at the NSC for the Middle East is retired Col. Derek Harvey, an Arabic-speaking intelligence officer with a Ph.D. who served as the head of the U.S. military cell examining the insurgency in Iraq in 2003.
I think any director is intimidating.
I hooked up with director Jacques Audiard for this film called 'Rust & Bone' with Marion Cotillard. I loved that experience so much I'm truly sad that it's over!
Jason Reitman is an amazing director; he's really amazing with his actors and crew.
The natural gas industry has worked long and hard to smear Josh Fox, the director of 'Gasland,' and has failed.
The kindest thing a director can do is look with open eyes at everything.
When I worked as an assistant director in 2007, Indraganti Mohan Krishna offered me a lead role. Now, the same director has made me a villain in 'Gentleman.'
I love Krishna Vamsi very much as a director, and after working with him, I also started to like him personally.
My uncle is a martial artist, and in the early '80s, he made a kung fu flick with director Charlie Ahearn.
Burt Lancaster was largely responsible for me becoming a director.
A lecturer once told me I could never be a director. I was 16. I believed him.
When I make films, I work with Mike Leigh, who's the most prolific director in England.
Richard Lester is a wonderful director, a great comedy director, of course.
One longs for a director with a sense of imagination.
Musically, I wear many hats. I'm the social media director. I conceptualise the videos, write the songs, do the press. I'm not a major label act.
