Of course I think it's a movie for everybody [Insane Farting Corpse], but that's probably just because it's a movie for me.

More quotes by Paul Dano
I approach every role from scratch.
Paul Dano
I like purple too. I looked up color psychology before doing any house painting, because I was curious what the colors I like mean. And purple is very royal and creative.
Paul Dano
I was constantly surprised by how things took shape, whether it was something that was funny or [sharp] or some of these more simple, quiet moments in the woods. Honestly I would say everything and nothing. I honestly don't think it's different than on any other film [Swiss Army Man]. I think I would probably ask questions of everything always.
Paul Dano
I think it's more important to try and make a good film than give a good performance.
Paul Dano
When somebody mentions that I did a play with George C. Scott, I'm like, it can't have happened. What was I doing on a Broadway stage at 11 years old? It's so far in the distance now.
Paul Dano
Everything you do, every experience that you have, enlightens you a little bit or worsens you.
Paul Dano
I think there was a lot of working out the arc of how Manny [Daniel Radcliffe] talks. Scene to scene [in the Swiss army Man], if I would start talking a little too well, they would come in and say like, Hey, you need to [dial back] your ability to speak - things like that.
Paul Dano
I feel like having something that you're passionate about helps to keep you young.
Paul Dano
The less acting you have to do, the better, I think.
Paul Dano
In tragedy, it's hard to find a good resolution it's not black and white: it's a big fog of gray.
Paul Dano
You try to get to know your character as best as you can before you start filming - whats written and not written.
Paul Dano
Sometimes it's summer camp on location. So it's nice to have a little New York community of people you love.
Paul Dano
The first time I went to Daniel's [Radcliffe] apartment to just hang out before, because we're doing this crazy thing together, right away he said, Do you want to put your hand in my mouth so we can get used to this? And he was really ready to go. So we broke down any barriers pretty quick.
Paul Dano
I would say that the emotional content of the film [Swiss Army Man] took me by surprise, and sometimes I would probably want to capture the unique tone of it.
Paul Dano
It's a constant learning process - not just what you need to learn for the character or as far as good actors - but as an actor, there's no limit. Every time now, you're learning so, I think that's a good thing though.
Paul Dano
I try to leave my work at the door when I leave the set. It's almost like summer camp. You go in hard, then you leave, and it's done.
Paul Dano
I love cereal. I eat several bowls a day, mostly a few late at night.
Paul Dano
On set, the playground for the character, how much it takes varies. Is it like ballet, is it like jazz? The content always lends itself to the form, and it's really not mathematics.
Paul Dano
Michael Caine is so happy. Happy and healthy. I think he enjoys life. I think he's 82 now, and I have no clue if I'll be working at that age.
Paul Dano
I dont normally like getting dressed up, but when I go to events, I like to look put together. Ive got to say, getting in a nice suit feels good.
