It's because we are so flooded with American culture that we're startled when we see ourselves up there on the screen.
Yahoo Serious

It's difficult to see yourself up on screen without being a critic.
Devon Aoki

It's fun to see a lot of the crowd become embarrassed. You're kind of watching them almost wanting to not watch the screen, but they have to because it's so compelling!
Will Friedle

It's never been important to be a huge star or to have some breakout role. If you're the lead, you get a lot more screen time and you get a lot more chances to develop that character more thoroughly than you would if you do it in a little supporting part.
Famke Janssen

It's rare that you cut out something that is really good. You screen all of it, and when the audience doesn't respond, you cut out whatever is holding the story down.
Keenen Ivory Wayans

It's the first war we've ever fought on the television screen and the first war that our country ever fought where the media had full reign.
William Westmoreland

Jane Austen was writing about boring people with desperately limited lives. We forget this because we've seen too many of her books on screen.
Mark Haddon

Looking back across the years, so many pictures flash on the screen of my memory that just as I begin to see one clearly, another slides in, blotting out the first, itself to be pushed aside by the next and the next and the next.
Conrad Veidt

Man watches his history on the screen with apathy and an occasional passing flicker of horror or indignation.
Conor Cruise O'Brien

Meryl Streep does things I would never have thought possible... Her presence on screen is outstanding.
Leonardo DiCaprio

Most of the sex I've seen on the screen looks like an expression of hostility towards sex.
Myrna Loy

My favorite on screen moments are when you are really there and you know you're creating something. That's so exciting... it's why you come to work.
Jason Dohring

My films are an extension of my poetry, using the white screen like the white page to be filled with images.
James Broughton

My first crush was Barry Manilow. He performed on TV and I taped it. When no was around I'd kiss the screen.
Janet Jackson

My mantra is: put your brain into gear and if you can add to what's on the screen then do it, otherwise shut up.
Richie Benaud

My movie is born first in my head, dies on paper; is resuscitated by the living persons and real objects I use, which are killed on film but, placed in a certain order and projected on to a screen, come to life again like flowers in water.
Robert Bresson

My sense of responsibility to the audience is to screen things that they would never see in a local theater.
Richard Wilson

My show is my statement. What I have to say is on the screen. My life is my own. I don't want to talk about my private self. Why should I?
Flip Wilson

Neither Elizabeth or I are keen to do a real-life couple on the screen. It's not very electric.
Hugh Grant

No matter what you do, your person comes through. You can't completely change yourself on the screen. I had in mind someone colder and more in control, but I couldn't do it. This human note just crept in and maybe it's better.
Leslie Caron
