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
You know who was wonderful to work with? Was Paul Gleason, may he rest in peace.
Judd Nelson
I play a garbage man who moonlights as a stand-up comedian. Terrible.

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.
Judd Nelson
Breakfast Club was great because we had a real rehearsal, and we shot primarily in sequence.

I went to acting school with Mario Van Peebles. For a little while, he was at the same school. So he asked me if I wanted to do [ New Jack City]. He said, There's not really a role. We'll figure something out. But would you like to? And I was like, Sure. 'Cause he said it was Chris Rock and Ice T's first movie.

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.

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

[In The Dark Backward ] someone who has writer's block and kills people in A Cabin By The Lake. I guess he's a type of serial killer, but I don't know.
Judd Nelson
It's strange, 'cause a play, you start at the beginning and you go all the way through to the end. So it's naturally very well rehearsed and you get a rhythm and a flow. In film, you can shoot the ending before the beginning. It's very odd. And it's like a craft you have to learn.
Judd Nelson
[St. Elmo's Fire] it was pretty soon after that. I know we didn't do Breakfast Club knowing we were going to do that.
Judd Nelson
I like Chicago. It's a great city. It's always fun to revisit it.

The first animation thing I did was the first Transformers, the one that was animated many years ago. And I had heard that Orson Welles was doing a voice on it.
