Quote

Most of the films I myself like don't do very well. Every director, he has a choice, whether to go for subtlety and try to articulate every minute detail, or to go for the broad strokes and hope that the people will fill in between the lines. I tend to go for the broader strokes.

To me, the most perfect screenplay ever written will be one word, when you finally reduce it down to that. Until then, writing will be an imperfect form of communication.

Usually whenever you're scared of something, do it. If you're not afraid of it, don't do it.

With a lot of comedians, one of their major attributes is that they look comedic, with a certain hangdog or manic expression. I look like the neighborhood bully. That doesn't elicit laughter.

Sylvester Stallone
Image
I tend to think of action movies as exuberant morality plays in which good triumphs over evil.

When I'm doing a movie, I eat the same thing every day. For lunch, it's tuna salad or chicken salad and cole slaw. That's it. For dinner it's either veal and rice, fish and rice or steak and rice. It gets boring boy, does it get boring.

I loved 'Rocky' and 'Rambo', and am very proud of them.

The champion's management says let's do this for real, for charity. Rocky says no but decides to be true to himself even though he's going to be berated by everyone. Just to compete, not to win.

I do believe that American should deal from strength.

Some actors are brilliant character guys. They submerge.

Now it really is, believe it or not, 90% of the films are green lit, not by the studio heads, but by the marketing department.
