More quotes by Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu
When I went to university, I finally got exposed to European films, and they had a strong impact on me. I felt those films had a lot of things to say that weren't getting expressed in the films I was used to seeing.
Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu
I think the arts should get big support, but my country has a lot of needs more important than film. Medication, education, food... The poverty is overwhelming. There are simply more important things to be attended to.
Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu
All my films have always been released in the autumn, maybe because they're more melancholy to people.
Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu
I think every beautiful tale in the world hides the truth and reveals it little by little.
Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu
In the creative process, my ego has always been a huge tyrant ... a dictator and kind of rude and very misleading, because sometimes when I'm doing something, I say, This is great! This is fantastic! Very genius! And 20 minutes later, I feel like a dead jellyfish. You are a stupid a**hole. This is a piece of sh*t. Nobody will care about it.
Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu
I personally can't handle frivolous violence. I overreact to it.
Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu
Every time that I'm challenged with a film I think that I haven't learned anything, that every film is different and that every thing that I have learned is useless in this new adventure.
Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu
How can [actors] learn their lines and be honest in front of 30 people and all the lights? It makes me cry sometimes. I can't understand how they can be joking with me 30 seconds before, and 40 seconds later they're giving me all this incredible feeling.
Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu
Really, I'm a neurotic perfectionist. Every single word in the script is the one that I want.
Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu
It's more enjoyable for me to know that life is finite. Knowing that, I would like to go to a party.
Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu
Life and death are illusions. We are in a constant state of transformation.
Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu
I didn't have a normal academic career. I never studied cinema. I learned from life.
Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu
I like to make films, but the only reason I do is because I'm a very bad musician.
Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu
Mexico City is very different now than when I grew up, but I was in the streets all the time - though I was born to a middle-class neighborhood where there weren't a lot of gangs and things. I was always comfortable.
Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu
The way America sees Mexico, if they have any sense of it, is like Taco Bell. Our countries are neighbors, and the only hard food to get in America is true Mexican. It's impossible to find, even in L.A. Why is that?
Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu
When you get to the holidays, if you think that the holidays will be forever, you just take it for granted. But, if you know that you have just three days at the beach, you will be so happy to be there, every day.
Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu
Fear is the condom of life. It doesn't allow you to enjoy things.
Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu
I've listened to music all my life. I've always felt that music tells more stories sometimes than films, with more possibilities. Every time you listen to them, songs bring different images and moods - depending on where you are in your life, you can listen to a song and it means something different.
Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu
I don't have anything against commercials, and I really like BMWs.
Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu
I made commercials for corporations like Volkswagen and Coca-Cola, but I was always the one to write them, too, which was a very good exercise, because I learned to tell little stories.
