More quotes by 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
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
The constraints of melodrama can be a great blessing, because they demand that all the characters involved - as absurd and extreme as they may initially seem - must stay utterly rooted in their own reality, or the whole project collapses.
Stanley Tucci
And I love doing my own projects that's what I've always wanted to do.
Stanley Tucci
As a director you have to be careful you don't over-design the film. You have to be careful that the period aspect does not take over.
Stanley Tucci

Stanley Tucci
Sometimes we all make relationships more complicated than they necessarily have to be.

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
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
If you feel safe then you can go wherever you want to go as an actor.
Stanley Tucci
So yes, I hope to act in other people's movies, big and small, because that's how I make my living, really.
Stanley Tucci
I'd read Up in the Old Hotel, and I wanted to do something with Mitchell's stuff for a long time.
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 think everybody has a little bit of an asshole inside of them.
Stanley Tucci
But usually I'll wake up and start writing about nine o'clock. I'll probably write for about three hours, and I'll do that over the next month and a half.
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.
