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.

More quotes by 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
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
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.

I'm not saying they won't be bigger projects someday.
Stanley Tucci
If you feel safe then you can go wherever you want to go as an actor.
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.

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
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
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
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
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
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
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'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
People wear shorts to the Broadway theater. There should be a law against that.
Stanley Tucci
I've always considered myself an actor first and foremost.
Stanley Tucci
And I love doing my own projects that's what I've always wanted to do.
Stanley Tucci
Sometimes we all make relationships more complicated than they necessarily have to be.
Stanley Tucci
The thing is, I'm a very practical filmmaker.
