More quotes by Judd Nelson
If you read a script enough, especially a good script - I try to read it 40 to 50 times before you begin so you get a sense of the arc: what happens before, what happens after, what happens during.
Judd Nelson
Kim Coates is really funny. He's a blast. If you have to get beaten up and tortured, he's a good guy to get tortured by.
Judd Nelson
You have to kind of roll with the punches. That's why I think work begets work to a certain degree. I just try and keep busy.
Judd Nelson
You can do crap work in a big movie, and it does good things. You can do great work in a movie no one sees, it does nothing. That's the way it goes.

Stagecoach is really my first Western-Western, the whole horses and gunplay. It was really fun. We shot it fast, too. We got lucky with the weather. If it rained, I don't know if we would have been able to finish it. We had like 12 shooting days for the whole thing.

My Brat Pack buddies and I didn't exactly handle celebrity very well. Success at an early age is far more difficult to handle than failure.

There were a few things that, in rehearsal, any one of us might try. [John] Hughes would go, I like that, to me spitting up in the air and catching it in my mouth. It was just something I did in a rehearsal and Molly [ Ringwald] went, Ewww. And John went, Can you do that again? And I went all day long, and he was like, Okay, let's do

You just have to learn certain technical things, like where the camera is, not to block people's light in your own, to hit your marks, and that you do it kind of piecemeal.
Judd Nelson
Voice-over stuff is so much fun because you don't have hair and makeup and wardrobe. You get to show up. And there were some talented people, and we don't even know them. And they're so gifted. They can do all these accents and voices. It's really fun to do that stuff. It's really like actor camp.

I like Chicago. It's a great city. It's always fun to revisit it.
Judd Nelson
My closest friend is canine. I have precious few close friends, and most of them are not actors
Judd Nelson
[John] Hughes really wanted it to sound authentic. He was a real collaborator. He encouraged us to bring to the material things we thought were maybe more truthful.
Judd Nelson
I took all the philosophy courses I could.
Judd Nelson
[John] Hughes was well aware that to ignore the seriousness of young people is to encourage things like Columbine, so you might want to listen. And we were all pretty serious, a little bit, in high school. Some a little more than others.
Judd Nelson
Young alienation, disappointment and heartache is all a part of the first real growing up that we do.
Judd Nelson
John Hurt was incredible to work with.
Judd Nelson
[John] Hughes is a great loss, I think. He was the first filmmaker that could look at someone who was young without seeing them as being less.
Judd Nelson
Remember to be as smart as you are.
Judd Nelson
[John] Hughes was open to that [rehearsal]. This can only happen if the director and/or the writer are open to that.

The movie that's had the most effect on me is Jaws. To this day when I'm in the ocean, I'm hearing that music.
