More quotes by Stanley Tucci
You have to be serious about what you do but you mustn't take yourself seriously. That way you'll be happier and ultimately you'll be more successful. You'll be better at what you do.
Stanley Tucci
People wear shorts to the Broadway theater. There should be a law against that.
Stanley Tucci
I have consciously not taken the role of a gangster, which has been offered to me far too many times.
Stanley Tucci
I'm pretty much a character-driven film director and my movies are smaller. I don't do a lot of coverage. I use lots of master shots.
Stanley Tucci
As soon as the actor steps into the role, you probably can cut 50% of the lines because there's a person there now. And what a person does with their eyes, with their mouth, with their hands, the way they walk into a room, you can probably cut half the scene.
Stanley Tucci
This is the funny thing about Skype. No one is really looking into the camera. People always looking down because they're looking at the image. You wish the camera was there in the center.
Stanley Tucci
I'm actually one who will encourage directors to cut my lines.
Stanley Tucci
The smaller films just take a longer period of time to build their fan base because people don't see them as soon as they come out in the theater. They see them, after a period of years.
Stanley Tucci
If you find that thing you love, it doesn't necessarily matter whether you do it well or not-you just need to do it.
Stanley Tucci
I never go overbudget on my movies.
Stanley Tucci
Every character, no matter who you play, at times is pretending to be somebody else. People have a public face and a private face.
Stanley Tucci
It's different if you're a painter. You can hidethe ones that don't work. You can't do that with movies. They tellthe story of who you are at the time, and that's the wonderful thingabout it.
Stanley Tucci
I've been playing the father of teenagers for years. People always thought that I was 40 when I was 26. Once you lose your hair, they're like Oh! He's really old now.
Stanley Tucci
I wanted to be an actor when I was a kid.
Stanley Tucci
I'm not saying they won't be bigger projects someday.
Stanley Tucci
I'm interested in how people shoot because I have a very specific way of shooting and I'm fascinated by the way other people shoot films, particularly if they're smart and talented.
Stanley Tucci
3D movie is tedious, its tedious for everybody, it's hard for the crew, it's hard for the actors. It adds more time. It's more technically complicated, so that just adds more time and takes a little more time away from he acting and that's kind of frustrating but to say I'll never do 3D again that doesn't make any sense.
Stanley Tucci
I mean, Scorsese's a genius, and that's one way of shooting.
Stanley Tucci
Those moments in between the moments, those are the most interesting. What's unspoken, the way we talk around things, the way our actions are inconsistent with what we're feeling, how anger and affection manifest themselves in strange ways at inappropriate times.
Stanley Tucci
I've always considered myself an actor first and foremost.
