More quotes by Alden Ehrenreich
Warren [Beatty] did a very cool thing, where he directs in character.
Alden Ehrenreich
I'm an actor because I love movies, and always have loved movies. I'm a film buff. So, getting to work with those kinds of directors and getting to tell those stories is what I want to do.
Alden Ehrenreich
When I worked with anybody like Woody Allen, there's the name, and your understanding of who they are before you meet them, that stays in your head a little bit.
Alden Ehrenreich
You do need these people to go out on a limb for you, thinking you're right for a role rather than having box office numbers.
Alden Ehrenreich
Like I've known Francis [For Coppola] for so long I think, Oh, Francis. And then you see his name on something with The Godfather, and you go, Oh, yeah. He's also that. The person you knew of before you met the actual person.
Alden Ehrenreich
That was cool, because they've all [ George Clooney and Josh Brolin and Scarlett Johansson] worked with the Coens. They were much more at ease with them at the outset, and they were all kind of familiar with the shorthand that the Coens had.
Alden Ehrenreich
I'm kind of grateful that I didn't have any real success until I was older and basically out of high school. I think that was a real confidence boost for me, having it all start that way, in that very privileged position of having him vouch for me.
Alden Ehrenreich
One of the big takeaways from that experience [in Blue Jasmin] was just what a thrill it was to act with somebody like Cate Blanchett operating on that caliber. Because what she was doing was very powerful. T
Alden Ehrenreich
That is sort of the eternal question for people who go to Hollywood...what will be the straw that breaks the camel's back, and forces you to think about doing something else? When do you throw in the towel?
Alden Ehrenreich
Each film and each character is a completely new set of challenges. It doesn't feel like you can rest on something you may have done well in the past.
Alden Ehrenreich
Warren [Beatty] was very adamant and very encouraging of me to direct. It's definitely something that I'd like to pursue more in the future.
Alden Ehrenreich
I talked to Woody Allen for half an hour or something. It was pretty incredible. He really went into lots of detail about the story [in Blue Jasmin] and what actually happened. Just talking to him is very surreal.
Alden Ehrenreich
I think that having had [Steven Spielberg's] confidence in me probably made me a little more immune to feeling as bad about myself in the face of rejection. I also was just so young - I was unaware enough to not take it too seriously.
Alden Ehrenreich
I want to make movies that people see. I really think that movies are the most popular form of story telling ever and have such a huge impact on culture when they do.
Alden Ehrenreich
It feels like you're being invited into a kind of community [working with the Coen brothers].
Alden Ehrenreich
Same with the Coen brothers and Warren [Beatty]. And then slowly you get to know each one of them as a person, and that becomes a kind of separate entity, where you just know the human being.
Alden Ehrenreich
By anyone's measure, [Warren Beatty] is proven himself. But he still sets out to make something as great as it possibly can be.
Alden Ehrenreich
[ Woody Allen] persona in the films are so iconic it's like on par with Groucho Marx or something like that.
Alden Ehrenreich
I feel about romance the same way I do about a vocation it's a calling.
Alden Ehrenreich
When you work for the Coens, they are so fun and so organized. They treat everyone with such respect. And the character I got to play was so fun.
