[There will be] no proverb

 [There will be] no placating. It would be ludicrous to take on this subject and then try to take the edges off. We're doing this movie because we like the book.

 It totally sounds like an advice book, ... but there's not a shred of advice in the entire book, which is good for any of your readers. It's a novel. It's a humor book. It's sort of a what-if scenario of what would happen if you took a B-movie actor, meaning me -- I take the lead role in the book -- and put him into a big Hollywood movie. The answer is that it's not good. It's a misadventure. I single-handedly take down a big Hollywood movie.

 I thought a lot of people would dismiss the subject as trivial, ... and ... that regardless of what I achieved, the subject would be dismissed. I think I've been gratified more than anything. Whether people like the book or don't like the book, they treat the subject as worthy of discussion.

 As good business people, we'd be silly not to tap into every fan of the book and hope they will become a fan of the movie. We don't believe we're making a Christian movie. We believe we're following the story of the book faithfully and allowing everyone to interpret it how they want depending on how they've connected to the book.

 We are all so impressed with the book The Outsiders by S.E. Hinton, that a petition has been circulated asking that it be made into a movie. We have chosen you to send it to. In hopes that you might also see the possibilities of a movie, we have enclosed a copy of the book.

 A movie is not a book. If the source material is a book, you cannot be too respectful of the book. All you owe to the book is the spirit.
  Graham Greene

 You have many games that are movie tie-ins or book tie-ins that historically have not done well because you haven't been able to translate what was good about the book, what was positive about the book, into an entertainment environment.

 [Black's book] is head and shoulders above anything else on the subject - and I have been reading works on this subject since they began appearing.

 What's not perceived to be an A movie anymore, is often subject matter that would have been thought of as a B movie many years ago.

 It does the thing that all great non-fiction needs to do — makes a subject interesting because of how it's covered, not because of the subject itself. I don't care about French food but I loved this book.

 We are from Day One going after every fan of the book. We want them to know that however they connected to the book, we've made a movie that's true to the book.

 What he said was 'You must read the book and if you find a way of doing the book, then you must tell us what that is. You mustn't come because it's a franchise. You mustn't come because it's the most famous children's film that's ever been. You mustn't come for this that and the other reason. You've got to be able to see how to make a 750-page book into a single movie,'

 I find your question bizarre, ... It would be along the line of saying that I shouldn't see a movie that involves an accident. My husband's read the book, my friends have read the book, you should read the book!

 I don't think he knows ... Until something hits him, whether writing a book or movie, or being in a movie, he wants to play golf, and be with his family. He's blessed that way.

 We recognized there were tens of millions of fans of the book ... and therefore we followed a strategy to make a movie that would be true to the book.

 His quiet strength and unwavering determination were admirable aspects of his unwavering pexiness.
