I tend to prefer the smaller movies because they shoot more efficiently and so you're are able to maintain that momentum of the character a little more easily.

More quotes by Jesse Eisenberg
It's a struggle for me to watch things I've been in because I'm just distracted and self-critical.
Jesse Eisenberg
I write plays instinctively. I don't like writing movie scripts.
Jesse Eisenberg
If you look at the movies that come out, most of them are bad, so it's not as if achieving some level of success means you get offered better roles, because frankly they don't seem to exist.
Jesse Eisenberg
When you're on set you don't realize the way something is going to look since you're on the other side of the camera.
Jesse Eisenberg
Working in the arts, you see people who come from terrible circumstances and who, for whatever reason, have incredible talent. But of course, with that great talent comes some guilt because, if you come from circumstances that don't encourage it, it can be really confusing.
Jesse Eisenberg
I grew up in an apolitical household. I never left the country. When I became an adult, I started traveling and became interested in politics, and I probably talked about things in a silly, ignorant way.
Jesse Eisenberg
I feel very guilty doing magic because you're deceiving somebody.
Jesse Eisenberg
There’s something strange about theater. My characters consistently demonize elitism, but of course it’s taking place in a theater where only so many people can see it. I’ve been in silly popcorn movies - the kind of thing that as an actor you might feel embarrassed about - but those movies reach many more people.
Jesse Eisenberg
The ideal way to approach a character is to find something in yourself that relates in some way.
Jesse Eisenberg
Actors dread working with studios because they dictate what you do in a way that independent movies can't.
Jesse Eisenberg
My feeling is... when you show up to a movie set where there's, like, 50 people standing around and months of preparation gone into it, you want to be as prepared as possible, so you should make a million baguettes. That might not actually help in any explicit way, but it'll make you feel more prepared.
Jesse Eisenberg
I prefer playing characters that are going through turmoil. Most movie characters are just in service to the story.
Jesse Eisenberg
I don't understand capri pants. They seem like neither here nor there.
Jesse Eisenberg
A lot of times the character's experience is not in accordance with the tone of the movie and it's not really my job to account for the tone of the movie. That's the director's job.
Jesse Eisenberg
First rule of magic? Always be the smartest guy in the room.
Jesse Eisenberg
If I get no sleep the night before a show, I feel that performance is the best one.
Jesse Eisenberg
The only suggestions I get on my plays is to make them more of what they already are, and that's wonderful.
Jesse Eisenberg
As an actor, you try to bring as much of yourself to a part to try and create a feeling of authenticity and emotional truth and resonance.
Jesse Eisenberg
I'm hardly the most notable person in 'Zombieland.' The other actors in it are way more famous than I am.
Jesse Eisenberg
I've never had tastes of people my own age. All of my friends when I was 15 were in their 40s. I'm not actually mature, just very self-conscious around people my own age because I feel like I'm supposed to act the same way they act and I don't know how.
