I don't know why I don't watch a lot of movies I can barely keep up with the things my friends are in. There isn't enough time in life.

I aim for a lifetime full of movies.

I used to be prettier than I am but I think I look better now. I was a pretty boy. Particularly in my early movies. I don't like looking at them so much. There's a sort of pretty thing about me.

I make movies that nobody will see. I've made movies that even I have never seen.

I have been in movies that I thought I wasn't very good in.

I think if you do something effectively whether you're the lover or the comic or the action guy or the villain like I play movies are very expensive to make. Chances are you'll get asked to play that part again.

When videotape came so a lot of movies that I do have a kind of afterlife in video. Things where movies that I do would come and go they still come and go but you can go rent them and see them on TV.

I've made three musical movies which is pretty good considering that not many are made but I was lucky in other ways. I came along when independent movies were starting to boom.

My favorite characters are the ones that are the most successful movies.

I've made movies that we're very successful that we're a complete surprise and I've made movies that I thought we're going to be very successful that you know.

I feel I want to grow as an actress and be better. I want to progress as a singer and songwriter and produce movies and everything. So there'll be no time when I feel I've done it all.

I just knew that was what I wanted to do. I was going to perform as a singer I was going to perform as a dancer and I was you know going to do movies and be an actress. I was going to do it or die trying. That's what my life was.

We can now have action movies with two stars where one might be African American and one might be Asian American. One of them doesn't have to be white and the other one doesn't have to be the ethnic sidekick. We're way over that. And I think it's happening in society too.

The movies I watch and the music I listen to and the books I read - those are important to me. It's very important to me and I don't know what I would do without those things.

I have three kids who like Harry Potter so I was sort of aware of it. You can't really move from it: it's on buses in stores it's everywhere. One of my kids has read the books the other two are too small but they like the movies.

How many movies do you see when you can say this director really knew what film he wanted to make? I can count them on the fingers of one hand.

A lot of action movies today seem to have scenes that just lead up to the action.

I think it's more interesting to see people who don't feel appropriately. I relate to that because sometimes I don't feel anything at all for things I'm supposed to and other times I feel too much. It's not always like it is in the movies.

I think we're very complicated and we're capable of all kinds of things and movies don't reflect that.

Although charismatic James Dean is no Harrison Ford. In the majority of his movies sooner or later he got the crap beaten out of him.

I love horror I love scary movies I love thrillers. If things creep you out and spook you? I love it.

Movies were never an art form they were entertainment. It just evolved into an art form from there and it's still evolving in different ways.

Now if you are like me - if you are like practically anybody in America - then you probably hold some negative opinions about the French based upon movies rumors recent headlines unfortunate run-ins with Parisian waiters or... you know... all that unpleasantness surrounding the Vichy regime.

I tend to think of action movies as exuberant morality plays in which good triumphs over evil.
