And I maintain good relationships with all the studios so I've never been bullied into any cut, frankly.

I think moviemakers are dramatists.

But Gladiator is one of my favourite adventures because I really loved going into the world. I loved creating the world to the degree where you could almost smell it.
Ridley Scott

It's everything and I always make decisions about the cast.

It goes back a long way. I wanted to make Tristan + Isolde as my second movie. My first movie was The Duellists. And I was standing in a very romantic part of France looking around me thinking, My God, this would be perfect for Tristan, and to cut a long story short it never happened because I did Alien instead.

I think if I'm going to do a science fiction, I'm going to go down a new path that I want to do.

You've got to be able to know someone really well to be able to have a row and then also walk away from it and not have it matter, especially in this business. That doesn't mean to say we have many rows but I think the nearest thing to a row would be just flatly disagreeing with something .

I also love Australian movies. I love Muriel's Wedding - I've seen in six times. Baz Luhrmann's best movie is strictly ballroom... without question.

Good FBI officers are not noticeable. You would never look at them.

I went to Art College and during the summer I made a movie with my brother. I got hold of a little camera, wrote a script and dragged my brother, Tony, out of bed to help me (which he did not like), so that we could shoot a film every day for six weeks. It was made for £65 and it was called Boy On A Bicycle.

In my view, the only way to see a film remains the way the filmmaker intended: inside a large movie theater with great sound and pristine picture.

That's part of the policy: To keep switching gears.

I don't ever blink, honestly.

When you're doing a big movie, you're gone for 10 months to a year.

I believe all of us only use one tenth of our brain. I know people who use one per cent only!
Ridley Scott

Everyone sniggered because I was going to do a sandal and toga movie. But I knew exactly how to do it and I know how to make Robin Hood.

Some people like to do everything always the same thing. That's another way: To do the same thing.
Ridley Scott
Image
I do like to make films with a political theme, but sometimes it's nice simply to make people laugh. That's the hardest thing to do in fact.
Ridley Scott
Image
Yeah, we're working on Blade Runner 2 right now - that will happen sooner or later.

The whole process of making movies and writing screenplays is visceral and intuitive.

I think going into space would be like going deep into the ocean, like 5,000 meters down. When you go down that far, it's just awfully black. There's not much there except mud and some particles. I imagine space would be a similar thing. The only difference is you're hoping to bump into some sort of intelligent extraterritorial being.
