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
The thing is, I'm a very practical filmmaker.
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'd read Up in the Old Hotel, and I wanted to do something with Mitchell's stuff for a long time.

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 never go overbudget on my movies.
Stanley Tucci

As a director, I also get to sit and watch actors and learn from them in a way that I don't get to do when I'm just acting.
Stanley Tucci
I wanted to be an actor when I was a kid.
Stanley Tucci
I didn't know you had to change diapers so often. I couldn't believe it - we must change them 10 times a day - each. So that's 20 diapers a piece a day.
Stanley Tucci
I think everybody has a little bit of an asshole inside of them.
Stanley Tucci
My partner, Beth Alexander, and I want to produce smaller films, but commercially viable films that will enable me to make the kinds of movies I want to make.
Stanley Tucci
I hate movies that take a long time to shoot or directors that labor over every shot or do excessive amounts of coverage and excessive takes and don't keep things moving or constantly cutting.
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
I think it's important to have a good sense of humor and joke around with your kids. That's what I do a lot.
Stanley Tucci
What's great is when you're working with somebody with whom you have a connection, it's exciting because there's a shorthand and you trust each other and you have a good time together on the set and so you can go a little farther than you might normally because you're with somebody that you trust.
Stanley Tucci
If you feel safe then you can go wherever you want to go as an actor.
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
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
I mean, Scorsese's a genius, and that's one way of shooting.
