David Fincher
Sometimes people freak out when you shoot 40 takes of something. They start looking at you like, What did I do wrong?, and its like No. It's not wrong. It's just that we are going to try something different.
David Fincher
In film, we sculpt time, we sculpt behavior and we sculpt light.
David Fincher
I always say everyone was lucky enough to be in a Cate Blanchett movie.
David Fincher
Human beings are amazing at finding ways to waste their own time.
David Fincher
Take ownership of every decision you make because you will be hold responsible for the film, whether good or bad.
David Fincher
You know, I don't think I've ever listened to someone's commentary. Ever.
David Fincher
I think title sequences are an opportunity to sort of set the stage or to get people thinking in different terms than maybe whatever they understand the movie to be going in.
David Fincher
I don't think that digital technology will ever take away the humanity of storytelling, because storytelling is entirely, in and of itself, a wholly human concern.
David Fincher
