I'm pretty hard to impress, and I'm pretty exacting, in terms of what I want from my props department and art department. We spend many, many hours going over visual research and finding the right artists to create the material.

More quotes by Cary Fukunaga
I just have a hard time displaying things.
Cary Fukunaga
I don't really see a huge divide between filmmaking and television. In the end, a lot of people are going to be watching this stuff on their laptops and their iPhones anyway. So, it doesn't really matter where it comes from, as long as the stories get told.
Cary Fukunaga
If you really want to tell someone you love them, you don't just go and blurt it out. There's a dance. And your movie does that.
Cary Fukunaga
In a city like New York, especially for young professionals who aren't in a family situation, most people don't cook for themselves. This is the only city I've ever lived in where I eat out every night.
Cary Fukunaga
I have tremendous faith that there will be greater films to come.
Cary Fukunaga
It's pretty awesome to see people dressed up in period clothing and running around on horses and in carriages and all that kind of thing. Part of the fun of making a period film is just that playfulness. It's just like make believe when you're a child except you get to do it for a real job.
Cary Fukunaga
You have to tease enough misinformation and lack of information to hopefully make people want more.
Cary Fukunaga
It's nice to represent to other people in the world that Americans actually do know what's happening in the world, can speak other languages and are conscientious. The perception quite often is that we don't know what's beyond our county line.
Cary Fukunaga
I'm terrible at making titles. I never like the titles of my films.
Cary Fukunaga
It's an important part of being a member of society to know what's happening in the world and to know where you fall in it and what you can do about it.
Cary Fukunaga
When people start talking, things happen.
Cary Fukunaga
Living in New York, I get excited by the idea of working in a different medium. And it's pretty frightening because whatever skills it takes to make a good piece of theater seem mysterious to me right now.
Cary Fukunaga
There are a lot of movies I would want to be a fly on the wall for. I would have loved to see the making of Jaws [1975], with all the fears and anxieties it was going to be a complete failure, and then to have it turn into the first blockbuster.
Cary Fukunaga
One of the great things about working with Focus is that you're never forced, especially with a film with low budget. The pressure is sort of off. It's like it's so under the radar in a sense that you can cast whoever you want.
Cary Fukunaga
I don't really put trophies out. I don't keep trophies around my apartment.
Cary Fukunaga
I have aspirations of making a big, historical epic. I don't know if I'll ever get the money to do it.
Cary Fukunaga
I want to be happy while I make movies and not just do things just to work. I want to do things I spend years on.
Cary Fukunaga
They're always surprised with what I want to do and don't want to do. I think they're surprised I don't want to do robo-tech. I don't know, it's like they want me to have a long career. And be prolific and make big movies.
Cary Fukunaga
I've never watched my films with an everyday audience so it was really crazy to watch people clap at the end of my film - with no one there, no actors, no people from the film. It was just a spontaneous reaction, so I thought that was probably the best compliment you could get from an audience.
Cary Fukunaga
If you have something really important you want to say, you have to read your audience, I guess.
Cary Fukunaga
