I was lucky to have my wife as the art director, and it turned out to be quite something - a great success. I'm very proud of it.
Helmut Newton

Your audience gives you everything you need. They tell you. There is no director who can direct you like an audience.
Fanny Brice

There has never been a female director who has won an Oscar. There has only been one woman who won at the Cannes Film Festival.
Salma Hayek

I have only one rule in acting - trust the director and give him heart and soul.
Ava Gardner

I've stood up to producers before, and even a director. I saw them being abusive. A lot of people on the set are scared to say stuff when they're not being treated right.
Natalie Portman

How people are around a director, it really does affect everything, every detail of the life of the movie.
Daniel Day-Lewis

What happens is things come to you - director, script - and if you respond to it, it's because it's tapping into some part of what's inside you, and different roles tap into different parts.
Sean Penn

I don't have any particular excitement about working with any specific director or actor at this point.
Sean Penn

Every casting director I've met is a woman.
Cameron Diaz

Good, bad mediocre or whatever it is, if a director wants me in his movie, I take it as a compliment.
Scott Caan

If you're a movie actor, you're on your own - you cannot control the stage. The director controls it.
Michael Caine

I wanted to do - there was this film called 'Magic' that Anthony Hopkins did. And the director wanted me. The writer wanted me. Joe Levine said no, I don't want any comedians in this.
Gene Wilder

I became, and remain, my characters' close and intent watcher: their director, never. Their creator I cannot feel that I was, or am.
Elizabeth Bowen

I am a sensitive writer, actor and director. Talking business disgusts me. If you want to talk business, call my disgusting personal manager.
Sylvester Stallone

It was weird because I was pregnant, throughout that so it was weird being a pregnant witch. I was in a really bad mood but luckily, because I sleep with the director, he just sort of scheduled me so I only had to do it two nights.
Helena Bonham Carter

The ladder of success in Hollywood is usually a press agent, actor, director, producer, leading man; and you are a star if you sleep with each of them in that order. Crude, but true.
Hedy Lamarr

I like working as a director most.
Stephen Chow

I'm so happy to have been a part of that process and I would go straight back into the desert in a ton of chain mail for Ridley any day of the week. He's an amazing director and I can't wait to see the long version.
Orlando Bloom

One longs for a director with a sense of imagination.
Alan Rickman

I had to go and sing with the musical director of the film, Simon Lee, who is just incredible, and it went great. I sang with him about five things, things we'd worked on. And then I went to sing for Andrew Lloyd Weber.
Gerard Butler
