I worked so hard for so long - I did a lot of movies. I also worked a lot when my kids were smaller, before they were in school. Michelle Pfeiffer on movies
There's always an imbalance with actors and actresses in the industry. And I think because there are just fewer movies overall being made, it's that trickle down effect. Michelle Pfeiffer on movies
The cardinal sin in sports, what could really wreck it, is not cheating to win, which has gone on forever, but cheating to lose. That threatens a fundamental aspect of sports' appeal, which is their spontaneity. If games are fixed, they're no different from movies they're scripted. Michael Mandelbaum on movies
When I finally got up to Industrial Light And Magic to work on the 'Star Wars' movies as a model-maker, it felt like dying and going to heaven. Adam Savage on movies
The other two things are... well, I had a huge appetite for old black and white movies on BBC 2. At the weekends they used to run matinees, and the more romantic the better. Ewan McGregor on movies
'Dr. Strangelove' was and is one of my favorite movies ever, and I just can't believe they actually blew up the world after that. Gary Ross on movies
Obviously I love 'The Godfather' movies. I think they're phenomenal. Gary Ross on movies

I think movies do play a valuable role in turning people on to the act of reading. I think that phenomenon just creates readers.

I love all the old classic Disney movies. 'Pinocchio.' There are obviously tons of them that anybody growing up on that stuff takes with them their whole lives, and I'm an admirer of a lot of classic animation and fairy tales.

But when you're writing a script - for me anyway - you have to sort of create an enforced innocence. You have to divest yourself of worrying about a lot of stuff like what movies are hot, what movies are not hot, what the budget of this movie might be. David Cronenberg on movies
Of course for many years directors have had to go on the road with their movies and promote them and I've done that since the beginning. So that's not new but the forms of it are different such as with the internet. David Cronenberg on movies
Whenever I think about movies, I always look at that art process as having the best of a lot of worlds. Because if you watch a great film, you have a musical element to it, not just on the scoring, but in the way that the shots are edited - that has music and rhythm and time. Frank Ocean on movies
The more unique your film is and unusual it is and difficult it is, the harder it is to get it financed. That's why a lot of good filmmakers are doing television. They do HBO movies. David Cronenberg on movies
My favorite movies are movies that I go in and I leave deeply affected. Whether I laugh really hard or whether I cry really hard, I just want to feel really affected in that moment. Shailene Woodley on movies
