I terribly miss - we all miss, I think - somebody like the great producer Irving Thalberg. He had a foot in both camps: He understood us creative people. And he understood the money people.

More quotes by Kevin Spacey
While data can only tell you what has happened in the past, it can in some ways give you a sense of what might be of interest to an audience in the future.
Kevin Spacey
I went through a period of great rebellion within my family, when I was about 9 or 10. I was mad, I had no focus, had no real interest in anything, and so I started to do things that were just rebellious and stupid.
Kevin Spacey
After graduation, I was floundering in L.A., doing stand-up comedy and working in a shoe store in the Valley.
Kevin Spacey
[What's my favourite book?] It changes all the time.
Kevin Spacey
If you ignore the murdering and the conniving, Francis Underwood is an effective politician.
Kevin Spacey
People have really long attention spans, and they love complicated plots. TV series are giving the audience what they want.
Kevin Spacey
It's much more interesting when you go to different places - make a left turn when nobody expects you to make a left turn, and make a right when nobody expects you to do that.
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
If youre not concerned about maintaining an image, you can pursue roads that another actor might not take.
Kevin Spacey
But I feel that I have a responsibility to help the film and I have relations with the studio and with those who put up the money so that I can tell a story that I believe in.
Kevin Spacey
I've done big studio films and the big studio films I've done, I've tried to do the interesting ones and the ones where I could live with myself in the morning.
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 think what we have seen in terms of gay teenagers committing suicide because of bullying is anguishing. I think young people, if they are feeling like they are confused, need to know that there are people to talk to and that there are places they can go and not feel alone. But I feel that they have just as many rights as I do to not be bullied.
Kevin Spacey
I open myself up every time I walk on screen and give you everything that I am. There are parts of me that are in every movie that I've done. That to me is what my job is.
Kevin Spacey
It's a great thriller or mystery, but on another level it's a film about the fact that, if you only look at a person through one lens, or only believe what you're told, you can often miss the truth that is staring you in the face.
Kevin Spacey
Theres no doubt that some of the greatest films ever made have come from the theater. Its all a matter of finding a way to make the theater experience watchable on film.
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
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
When you know you have 1,000 people sitting on the edge of their seats in silence because of a shift that just happened on stage, there is no better feeling.
Kevin Spacey
