Bret Easton Ellis
Completely committed to adapting 'Fifty Shades of Grey'. This is not a joke. Christian Grey and Ana: potentially great cinematic characters.
Bret Easton Ellis
Our lives are not all interconnected. That theory is a crock. Some people truly do not need to be here.
Bret Easton Ellis
The images I had were of people being driven mad by living in the city. Images of parents who were so hungry and unfulfilled that they ate their own children.
Bret Easton Ellis
I think a lot of snowflakes are alike...and I think a lot of people are alike too.
Bret Easton Ellis
Open the hood of a car and it will tell you something about the people who designed it, is just one of many phrases I’m tortured by.
