More quotes 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
Breakfast Club was great because we had a real rehearsal, and we shot primarily in sequence.
Judd Nelson
I wanted to meet Orson Welles. So I was like, whatever, somehow get me in on this. I'm able to get cast in it, but Orson Welles worked alone. He worked before all of us worked. He didn't want to work with anyone else.
Judd Nelson
It's a profession where merit is not necessarily rewarded.
Judd Nelson
John Hurt was incredible to work with.
Judd Nelson
You know who was wonderful to work with? Was Paul Gleason, may he rest in peace.
Judd Nelson
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
Judd Nelson
I think that sometimes you don't have the opportunities for some of the most A-list-type movies, big-budget movies. But I think it's important to keep working and make the best of what's available. Because otherwise, what? Are you just going to get bitter and moan? What does my mom always say? If you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen.
Judd Nelson
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
[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
You have to be so confident and so gifted to fill five minutes of nothing at the very beginning of a play before even a word is uttered.
Judd Nelson
A fancy watch, it's completely unnecessary. I just need a watch to tell the right time.
Judd Nelson
Catcher in the Rye had a profound impact on me-the idea that we all have lots of dreams that are slowly being chipped away as we grow up.
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
Heroes always make the right decision I find that seldom happens in my life.
Judd Nelson
Young alienation, disappointment and heartache is all a part of the first real growing up that we do.
Judd Nelson
My first love is acting on stage. A sitcom is a hybrid of stage and film.
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
I went to acting school in New York City for two years. I studied with Stella Adler
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.
