Quote

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.

Even though I grew up in L.A., no one in my family was in the movie industry.

I feel like I would have ultimately ended up pursuing acting. It probably would have been much more difficult and taken a lot longer for me to get into it professionally.

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
Image
[Warren Beatty] will sometimes spend hours on a very small detail to make sure he gets it right. After the kind of work that he's made, he certainly doesn't have to be doing that.

The movie [Blue Jasmin] shot very quick. I met Cate Blanchett in the car on the way to set, and we did that last scene, and she was just so phenomenal. I had basically met her that day. Because the way he shoots, everybody just shows up and does their thing, and he moves us very quickly.

That's something that Francis [Ford Coppola] would always say. I remember when I was doing Tetro, he said, Stay innocent. I'm 69 years old, and I'm still innocent.

Image
I think you always feel like you're about a hair's breadth away from being a bad actor anyway... It's not too hard to let the rope go slack, so to speak.

Howard Hughes innovation was in the aviation field. His designs and spirit of experimentation was at the forefront. As far as his work as film producer, he certainly went after a bigger and more ambitious kind of filmmaking, even if he wasn't necessarily a cinema artist.

Image
I had the opportunity to learn more about what life is like for a soldier [in The Yellow Birds].
Alden Ehrenreich
Image
I actually remember getting asked when we were at the Cannes Film Festival, what I expected to do next. I remember feeling like there was no way I could've imagined that something like Tetro would have happened to me.

Whenever you hear somebody else is auditioning for something, you sort of assume they're going to get it. You should try to just ignore it. I don't find it very helpful to know who else is going up for stuff, generally.
Alden Ehrenreich
Image
I remember Tetro was a big deal to me at that time. It was going from zero to one: Never having been in a movie, a person who had no relationship to any of that, and that was my first movie.
Alden Ehrenreich
Image
I grew up watching a lot of old movies, so getting to ask about making movies in the '70s and people he was friends with, like Orson Welles, Lillian Hellman and Charlie Chaplin, and hearing a first-person account was pretty incredible.

[Warren's Beatty] first film being with this very important director [Elia Kazan], I think we related on that in a big way. And I just was genuinely curious about his experiences in film, and about the people he knew.
Alden Ehrenreich
Image
It's a little bit about how I felt about Hail, Caesar! and now Star Wars. I could not have predicted those things happening to me. But I'm just happy they come along.

Image
[Warren Beatty] definitely sees 'Rules' as a comedic consequence to the American sexual puritanism that is dramatically presented in 'Splendor.'

So many times you can't get a foot in the door unless you're already in the room.

An era that I specifically like is sort of late 50's, early 60's. I guess mid 50's too. I like these types of films that deal with post WWII America and this more complex leading man that kind of emerges from that.

I honesty feel that each film has its own particular challenges.

The biggest challenge to being an actor is when you're not working, just being unemployed, the downtime and not having anything to do.
