More quotes by Kevin Spacey
The greatest sound in the theater is silence.
Kevin Spacey
I think that there is no doubt that every experience you have in your life, whether it's playing a character or something else, you bring that to the work.
Kevin Spacey
The control is shifting because of the democratisation of the internet. My industry is very good at building walls to stop people getting in.
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
Pushing the boundaries of what is expected of you is important to me.
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
There's something really incredible about watching what someone else does with a role that we know: the Hamlets or the Henry Vs or the Othellos or the Cleopatras that we've seen on stage.
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
Theres nothing like standing in a place and wanting nothing so much as to change but simply not being able to.
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 dont even think in terms of ambition.
Kevin Spacey
[What's my favourite book?] It changes all the time.
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
In film, movies schedules are based on three things: actors availabilities, when are sets being built, when you can rent the place youre going to film in.
Kevin Spacey
Directing a film was something I was yearning to do. I always wanted to see if I had the capacity to be a good storyteller.
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
Am I now supposed to go on Oprah and cry and tell you my deepest, darkest secrets because you want to know?
Kevin Spacey
It's Hard to Stay Mad When There's So Much Beauty in the World
Kevin Spacey
Why not sit around a Beverly Hills pool collecting residual cheques? That is not the kind of life I want.
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.
