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?

More quotes by Alden Ehrenreich
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
I had the opportunity to learn more about what life is like for a soldier [in The Yellow Birds].

For me, it was watching 'Reds' and 'Splendor in the Grass.' To me, 'Splendor' is like the companion piece to 'Rules Don't Apply.' It's set in the time when Warren [Beatty] came to Hollywood, and when he did that first film.
Alden Ehrenreich
I feel about romance the same way I do about a vocation it's a calling.
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.

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
[Warren Beatty] is voraciously detail-oriented.
Alden Ehrenreich
I've definitely been spoilt. Every movie I've done, it's always the same criteria: finding a great story, and finding a great part to play.
Alden Ehrenreich
Warren [Beatty] did a very cool thing, where he directs in character.
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
Just getting to talk to that person [Woody Allen ] in real life was pretty wild.
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 really want to be a part of those movies that say something good to a lot of people.
Alden Ehrenreich
Even when Warren [Beatty] cast me, it had been two years between films at that point.
Alden Ehrenreich
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.
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
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.
Alden Ehrenreich
When I was a little kid, my parents would show me Marx Brothers films and westerns and stuff like that. Thats where all my desire to be an actor comes from and probably most of my understanding of acting comes from for sure.
Alden Ehrenreich
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.
Alden Ehrenreich
[The Yellow Birds] is based on a novel written by Kevin Powers, who is an Iraq War vet. I play a soldier who promises my friend's mother I'm going to keep him alive. But when we go overseas to Iraq, he gets killed. It's about what happened to him, my reckoning and dealing with that as I return home from the war.
