More quotes by Ethan Hawke
Its difficult to do a genre film well, and it doesnt matter if youre talking vampire movies or Dawn of the Dead or The Thing or Escape From New York. Those kind of movies, they understand what the old-school B-movie is supposed to be, they get the throwback of it.

The writing process was some of the most exciting and rewarding moments of my life. It felt a lot like being in a band.
Ethan Hawke
I met a lot of famous people when I was about 24. And none of them seemed very appealing. And so I didn't know why I would struggle to be that kind of person.
Ethan Hawke
One of the hardest things about my job is that there kind of is no one rulebook that applies to all situations.

I have totally hitched my wagon to the horse of storytelling, and the idea that none of us know why we're born, or why we're gonna die, or what we're planted here, or what's on the other side of the galaxy, or when time began, or when time end.

I remember staying up all night waiting to see the first screening of Cape Fear because you knew that every time Robert DeNiro had a performance it was going to be revelatory. Then DeNiro hit this place, he seemed like he was done with the emotional cost of impaling himself like that, and he dedicated himself to comedy.
Ethan Hawke
Whenever a really passionate, talented filmmaker seems to have an interest in me, I take it very seriously because I like to work.
Ethan Hawke
It's always a unique challenge when you're working with somebody where English is their second language.
Ethan Hawke
The idea that a film is created in the editing room - it's only a certain kind of movie that's made in the editing room and it's not one that I really want to see.
Ethan Hawke
I think that as soon as you think of yourself as a famous person or anything like that, you're objectifying yourself in some weird way.
Ethan Hawke
If you can understand the inner life, then you can wear the uniform, the tattoos, or whatnot and realize that the things that are different about us become superficial.
Ethan Hawke
If you don't risk doing something foolish, you'll never do anything special.
Ethan Hawke
To get to be somebody who gets to love what they do for a living, that's so rare, and so there must be some kind of price you have to pay.
Ethan Hawke
I don't know what has happened to movies, but lately every movie is at least 20 minutes too long. It used to be that if you were three hours long it was because it was epic - a movie about Gandhi something with very important subject matters.
Ethan Hawke
But the truth is, I've never wanted to be a movie star - and I've been pretty clear about that.
Ethan Hawke
