More quotes by Garry Marshall
Now women are rising to great positions and they run most of the studios now.
Garry Marshall
I really wasn't too interested in writing Father Knows Best and Ozzie And Harriet. I thought they were pleasant enough, but it wasn't really what I wanted to do.
Garry Marshall
I'm a little older and I'm gonna do a bunch more movies and then they're gonna put me in a home for old directors.
Garry Marshall
Women are pretty good. Women usually fight about some stupid guy and then when they figure out it's just a stupid guy they make up and move on.
Garry Marshall
We can't compete with Mel Gibson, but we figured we could do our part.

You do a little more of a record album these days. See I just wanted to put a few songs in Beaches and we did very well. The album of Beaches went gold.

I always remember writing a page of jokes for a comedian and handing it to him backstage at a club and he read it and then took his cigarette lighter and lit the page on...

I work with a lot of women and yeah I see totally different... My two sisters were different, I have two daughters that are pretty different.

I think I learned a lot on Beaches. A guy I worked with Dante Spinotti is a wonderful cinematographer and it was his first picture and he went on to be nominated for an Academy Award for LA Confidential which was great.

I wasn't really that good at being a musician. And then I tried being a standup. I was an actor. I was a photographer. I tried everything. Nothing was particularly working for me, but then, as a musician, I wrote jokes for comics. And they started to buy my jokes, and that's where I thought maybe that might work.
Garry Marshall
There's no better satisfaction than writing. I feel that writing is the best and everything else comes with it
Garry Marshall
I directed fourteen movies. Every movie had Hector Elizondo. He didn't like Beaches. I don't know, it was originally not a happy movie at all, it was much sadder than that. And they brought me in to kind of make it a little more 'warm', I guess you might call it. The original ending was a whole messy thing.
Garry Marshall
I'm basically a writer, it's who I am. I direct and I like theatre directing very much. But I've done 17 movies, they don't say 'Let's get Garry, he'll make a helicopter shot,' they say 'Get Garry, he'll fix the script.'
Garry Marshall
I think men should go see Beaches too. I think they'll understand women better.
Garry Marshall
[Beaches] is a pretty picture and I just liked having somebody like Bette [Mudler] who can be flying in the big comedy scenes and have her do more like a realistic part.
Garry Marshall
I'm very excited about is that my son Scott is a director and he just finished his first picture. It's called Lucky 13, it's a low budget picture, it stars Jeremy Dillon, Daryl Hannah and Jami Gertz.
Garry Marshall
If you’ve got the comedy eye, you can look at any situation and see the humor in it while others don’t.
Garry Marshall
Learn to work with people you wouldn't go to lunch with.
Garry Marshall
He convinced me - Fred Freeman - to go to Hollywood and we went to Hollywood to write sitcoms. Joey Bishop actually paid my way to Hollywood.
Garry Marshall
In the middle of Beaches there's a scene from the Laverne & Shirley TV show so they see some history of my work in each film.
