More quotes by Kevin Spacey
Gaming is going into storytelling. It was a new audience.
Kevin Spacey
I've been around politics a long time. I've seen it at its best and its worst, been at so many events, listened to private conversations versus public speaking, understood the game of it, and in many ways the theatrics.
Kevin Spacey
If you look back through history in the United States, there have been very few landslide elections. Half the country always voted for someone else.
Kevin Spacey
As the years have gone on, I find one of the dangers of watching dailies... is you fall in love with moments.
Kevin Spacey
I'm not a writer. I marvel at writing. I am sometimes absolutely astounded when I read something and I think how in the world did that man or that woman sit down at a typewriter, a computer or a pen and an ink well, and seemingly have nothing come between their heart and that pen.
Kevin Spacey
If youre not concerned about maintaining an image, you can pursue roads that another actor might not take.
Kevin Spacey
Over a spell of about three years, I played a series of roles that were, for me, all very different, but most of them came out within a six-month period. They all dealt with a kind of dark territory that in some cases had been mined before in movies.
Kevin Spacey
To know what you want, to understand why you're doing it, to dedicate every breath in your body to achieve... If you feel you have something to give, if you feel that your particular talent is worth developing, is worth caring for then there's nothing you can`t achieve.
Kevin Spacey
What I like about Britain is that I can live a normal life here.
Kevin Spacey
It's the way I feel about acting. That we are given clues by a writer about someone's essence or persona and it's our job to try to figure out which of those clues are true, which of clues we decide to follow and which of those clues we think are red herrings, or only in the way another character thinks of that character.
Kevin Spacey
My job as an actor is to serve the writing and help the author get his ideas across.
Kevin Spacey
Netflix did it right and focused on all the things that have replaced the dumb, raw numbers of the Nielsen world - they embraced targeted marketing and 'brand' as a virtue higher than ratings.
Kevin Spacey
Our job, you know, in the entertainment profession is to try to illuminate and show people all sides of humanity, and it doesn't just mean that you can only do movies that are only about the good parts of us. You have to be able to eliminate the bad parts.
Kevin Spacey
It takes stamina to get up like an athlete every single night, seven to eight performances a week, 20 weeks in a row. And there are many young performers who only learn their craft in the two minute bits it takes to film a scene. You never learn the arc of storytelling, the arc of a character that way.
Kevin Spacey
I've never heard of a situation where, because somebody had a particular political belief, they didn't get a part. I think it's a bit of a myth.
Kevin Spacey
Let's let people live their lives and do it the way they want to do it.
Kevin Spacey
Audiences grew to like this duality of feeling, where youre both championing a character and youre revolted by them.
Kevin Spacey
Stay true to your brand and true to your voice and audiences will respond to that authenticity with enthusiasm and passion.
Kevin Spacey
You risk working with this director, you risk making this movie, you risk working with another actor you don't know. It makes your heart beat faster. And it keeps you interested.
Kevin Spacey
You are not just, This is the way I play it every night. You are constantly finding new ways in, new attacks, I want to try it this way. Maybe this scene is affecting that scene. I want to attack this scene differently.
