More quotes by Steven Soderbergh
I guess why the Ocean's films are hard for me is because on the one hand you have to make sure the performances are there, but on the other hand it's a film that demands, to my mind, a very layered and complex visual scheme. That takes a lot of time to figure out.
Steven Soderbergh
There's a big difference between a movie about relationships and a movie in which people talk about relationships. It seems like a lot of people have confused the two.
Steven Soderbergh
I suppose I could try to be some avant-garde artist if I wanted to, but that doesn't interest me as much.
Steven Soderbergh
You’re supposed to expand your mind to fit the art, you’re not supposed to chop the art down to fit your mind.
Steven Soderbergh
Another thing that really excites me: I'd like to do multiple versions of the same film.
Steven Soderbergh
Lying is like alcoholism. You are always recovering.
Steven Soderbergh
I never leave the writer behind, because you rewrite the movie in post, or at least I do. I always do, and I feel like anybody who doesn't at least explore that possibility is short-changing themselves. Editing is the most fun and most exciting part of the process.
Steven Soderbergh
A Movie That Costs Only $1.6 Million Doesn't Have to Be a Cultural Event to Turn a Profit.
Steven Soderbergh
You can create meaning where there was none, you can create feeling where there was none, you can create narrative where there was none. Two frames can be the difference between something that works and something that doesn't. It's fascinating.
Steven Soderbergh
Maybe I'll paint, do photography, just something else. I can see that.
Steven Soderbergh
You can't get good at anything unless you do it day in and day out, over and over.
Steven Soderbergh
When we look at what's going on in the world and we see the immense level of conflict that seems to always be happening - you can always trace it back to competing narratives.
Steven Soderbergh
To me the director’s job is to leave it in better shape than you found it, literally.
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
The art model of problem solving is incredibly efficient because ideology has no place there.There's only the thing and what the thing needs to be.
Steven Soderbergh
I like a lot of different kinds of movies, I like a lot of different kinds of paintings.
Steven Soderbergh
My father, who was the one who really got me hooked on movies, liked all kinds of films, and I saw all kinds of films at a very young age.
Steven Soderbergh
I'm in the process of working out an arrangement to make some very, very, very small films in the midst of all these films and maybe that will help. But you get tired of talking. You just want to do it.
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.
