Steven Soderbergh
In Full Frontal and K Street, I learned to take advantage of the mobility that digital provides.
Steven Soderbergh
Well, it's 15 years since Sex, Lies And Videotape, and if you hang around long enough you're having the same arguments with just a new set of people every few years and it gets boring.
Steven Soderbergh
People like Chris Nolan are shooting isolated sequences in IMAX. Those cameras are the size of a Volkswagen.
Steven Soderbergh
We all get outraged by things and there are things that make us angry and maybe for a while we get angry enough to actually go do something about it.
Steven Soderbergh
You can't get good at anything unless you do it day in and day out, over and over.
Steven Soderbergh
You should never assume anything coming from a critical standpoint. You should go into everything assuming you're going to get crushed.
Steven Soderbergh

Steven Soderbergh
I'm a grinder. I'll beat you because I will not sleep.
Steven Soderbergh
In nature, if a cell gets too big, it divides. You can't come up with a set of rules that's going to work for 350 million people. You're just not.
Steven Soderbergh
Everything had been done long before I started making movies. I mean, there's nothing that Godard hasn't already done. You can't do a single thing that Godard hasn't already thought of. And so you struggle to do something that is not predictable.
Steven Soderbergh
I'm always a little unnerved when I see a show that's set in the past that implies in any way that things were nicer then.
Steven Soderbergh
We're all standing on the shoulders of what other people have done. But you're supposed to take that and add your own sauce. It can be intimidating, believe me.
Steven Soderbergh
I just find it annoying that in these sequences [of the fight scenes], traditionally, there's music trying to pump you up. I don't like that, personally, as an audience member. This just reflects my taste.
Steven Soderbergh
There is sadness of when you're watching someone enjoy something that you think is substandard. The ineffable sadness when someone is happy and something is not as good as it should be.
Steven Soderbergh
Whenever you experiment with something, it's very easy to take the emotion out of it. And going back and forth between wanting to be respected artistically and wanting to move people is its own challenge.
Steven Soderbergh
The ought to be a worldwide cultural taskforce that just stops you when you have ideas like combining The Red Desert with an armored car heist movie.
Steven Soderbergh
We [people] are a species that's wired to tell stories. We need stories. It's how we make sense of things. It's how we learn.
Steven Soderbergh
I'm not precious about anything. The effort it took to get something means nothing to me in post. It means nothing to the audience. I'll chop limbs off. I'll put an arm where a leg should be. I'll do anything.
Steven Soderbergh
I tend to be drawn more to people than pure story ideas.
Steven Soderbergh
