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

I love different themes, different venues, different movies. I love to jump about and tackle different subjects. I have no intellectual master plan.
Ridley Scott
Image
My career seems to be a career of non-specific subjects which are all over the place.

I think there's nothing worse than inertia. You can inert and study your navel and gradually you'll fall off the chair. I think the key is to keep flying.
Ridley Scott
Image
I think moviemakers are dramatists.
Ridley Scott
Image
When you're doing a big movie, you're gone for 10 months to a year.
Ridley Scott

Yeah, we're working on Blade Runner 2 right now - that will happen sooner or later.
Ridley Scott

There's a little thing on your shoulder called intuition and it whispers in your ear. Everyone has that, there is a voice telling you to do something. Most people ignore it - but you must listen to it. I do it every day, all day.
Ridley Scott
Image
I'm a moviemaker, not a documentarian. I try to hit the truth.

Audiences are less intrigued, honestly, by battle. They're more intrigued by human relations. If you're making a film about the trappings of the period, and you're forgetting that human relationships are the most engaging part of the storytelling process, then you're in trouble.

The time it would take me to write a screenplay it would take me the time to make two films. I would rather make the movies and I'm a better moviemaker than I a would be writer.
Ridley Scott

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.
Ridley Scott

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

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 .

You don't really know what you're going to get until you're actually in Abbey Road. That's where I did all the music, in The Beatles' place.
Ridley Scott

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.
Ridley Scott
Image
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.

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.

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.

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 don't ever blink, honestly.
