I felt for the proverb

 I felt, for the first time in my career, that I was directing a stage production more than a motion picture. Part of directing is psychotherapy. You're sitting there with a lot of very talented patients, and you're hoping your movie doesn't blow up in your face in anarchy.
  Steven Spielberg

 I've been a huge fan of his since I started directing. For me, directing Beckett has the same rush I had when I was directing Shakespeare. It is sublime material, and when it works it is so powerful. It's some of the most exciting theater I've ever been part of.

 Anybody can direct a picture once they know the fundamentals. Directing is not a mystery, it's not an art. The main thing about directing is: photograph the people's eyes.

 It was exciting in that it was the first of the films. Nobody had ever dreamt of it being a major motion picture. Robert Wise was one of the leading lights, one of the great directors, and he was quite a force. And so between the idea of it being a major motion picture and Robert Wise directing, it was an important moment in all our lives.
  William Shatner

 Of all the things I've done in life, directing a motion picture is the most beautiful. It's the most exciting and the nearest that an interpretive craftsman, such as an actor can possibly get to being a creator.

 The directing of a picture involves coming out of your individual loneliness and taking a controlling part in putting together a small world. A picture is made. You put a frame around it and move on. And one day you die. That is all there is to it.
  John Huston

 I think the motion picture industry is a stupid business and I despise acting the scenes in short snatches, one at a time. I hate this film work. I am disgusted with myself. On the stage I could never play a part unless I felt it with all my heart and soul.

 [on Marilyn Monroe]
Directing her was like directing Lassie. You need 14 takes to get each one of them right.
  Otto Preminger

 I enjoy directing something I've never seen. If I see it, it tends to influence my directing, and I end up second-guessing myself.

 I have nothing to do with sci-fi. I've done a couple of sci-fi movies. I never approach them as that genre. You know, they're all dramas. Sci-fi, the idiom of sci-fi has created a context into which you can pour all sorts of great human dilemmas. So that's what I'm directing. I'm directing a modern-day humanist drama with comic elements.

 If this motion is approved this evening, based on the
previous motion that Trustee Sebby did read earlier this
evening, what you are doing is directing staff to go out for
bids on demolition of the theater,

 In a daydream sort of way, I think it would be pretty cool to direct a movie. But I have been on movie and TV sets and know it is hard work. I like directing it in my mind. It is easier.

 The new movie I'm working on right now is very autobiographical. It's about a television actor who drinks too much and gets blackballed from the industry, and then he decides to break back in by directing his own movie,

 The fact that Terry was directing the movie sold it to me,

 Movie directing is a perfect refuge for the mediocre.
  Orson Welles
