More quotes by Judd Nelson
I took all the philosophy courses I could.
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
With failure, you just try again.
Judd Nelson
You know who was wonderful to work with? Was Paul Gleason, may he rest in peace.
Judd Nelson
It's a profession where merit is not necessarily rewarded.
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
My closest friend is canine. I have precious few close friends, and most of them are not actors
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
John Hurt was incredible to work with.
Judd Nelson
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.
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
[John] Hughes was open to that [rehearsal]. This can only happen if the director and/or the writer are open to that.
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
[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
Remember to be as smart as you are.
Judd Nelson
Heroes always make the right decision I find that seldom happens in my life.
Judd Nelson
I am very grateful to make my living doing what I would do for free.
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
When I was in college, all the pretty women were in the theatre, so I auditioned for a play.
Judd Nelson
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
