More quotes by John Malkovich
I always wanted to be fashionable.
John Malkovich
I'm supposed to be a pretty good theater actor.
John Malkovich
I was never a fanatical movie person. There are many popular films I absolutely love like anyone else. Having said that, I don't have time to go to the movies very much. I work a lot of different things, I'm always busy. But I'm always happy to see a popular movie.
John Malkovich
You can't work in the movies. Movies are all about lighting. Very few filmmakers will concentrate on the story. You get very little rehearsal time, so anything you do onscreen is a kind of speed painting.
John Malkovich
There's no worse feeling in the world than realizing the play you've directed doesn't work.
John Malkovich
I was a very good baseball player and football player as a kid, but my father always told me - occasionally while striking me - that I was much more interested in how I looked playing baseball or football than in actually playing. And I think there's great truth in that.
John Malkovich
I don't like things too overstated in the cut or too perfect.
John Malkovich
Anybody doing something brings something to it. It's not for me to say if it's growth. Just by the nature of everyone has a different take on the material. Some people would.
John Malkovich
It's not a gift of mine, but one given to me, to be able to criticise myself and not be crushed, by myself or by others.
John Malkovich
I don't remember my life before I had children.
John Malkovich
Even if you do succeed most people wouldn't notice anyway.
John Malkovich
You know, I'm really not interested in someone telling me that something's good or bad.
John Malkovich
I like to direct movies, but I don't like to goof around for eight years talking about it.
John Malkovich
If you don't interfere with me, I'll always do something really good.
John Malkovich
The projects I look for to produce or direct would not be ones in which I would want to act.
John Malkovich
Some directors expect you to do everything write, be producer, psychiatrist. Some just want you to die in a tragic accident during the shooting so they can get the insurance.
John Malkovich
With acting it's your neck up there in the end. And if you think the director can't help you it's one thing. But if you feel they're reining you in when they need to be giving you some rope, or vice versa, then I just don't tolerate that.
John Malkovich
It's funny - people think analysis or psychiatry is mad, and THEY go to CHURCH.
John Malkovich
I don't have a saviour or a royal family.
John Malkovich
I never wanted to be with someone who just hung around the house.
John Malkovich
