When you're doing a live-action movie, you have your day set up and you're going to do this shot and this shot, and eventually the sun is going to go down. It's a sequential race to whatever is going to end the day.

More quotes by Wes Anderson
I just want to make films that are personal, but interesting to an audience.
Wes Anderson
I don't think any of us are normal people.
Wes Anderson
the one thing I've observed over the years is the best way to get an actor to not want to play a certain role is to offer it to them. That makes them say, Well, maybe it's not that good. These guys don't want me to do this...
Wes Anderson
On Fantastic Mr. Fox, I got used to working with animated storyboards as a way of planning for the shoot. We did a lot of sequences that way with this movie. Partly as a result of that, I decided to build more sets in order to do certain shots.
Wes Anderson
I love working with actors. That's what the set really is, for me. It's my time with the actors.
Wes Anderson
The things that are more my own style are something that I don't really have to think about. The only time I have to think about them is if I want to force myself not to do it the way I do it.
Wes Anderson
A lot of people have said my movies are all the same. But I don't actually make an effort to have a style. I'm usually just thinking of what can we do to make it funnier or more interesting or just kind of refine it and it ends up like that.
Wes Anderson
I don't know what is in store for the movie business any better than anybody else does, but it does seem like my kind of movies are a little trickier than it used to be - or maybe a lot trickier.
Wes Anderson
My experience with casting children is that... the whole movie is going to rest on their shoulders, so you have to set aside time and wait for the perfect people to appear.
Wes Anderson
Paris is a place where, for me, just walking down a street that I've never been down before is like going to a movie.
Wes Anderson
I've always loved stop motion animation and I particularly wanted to do stop motion with puppets that have fur, for whatever reason that is.
Wes Anderson
And I wanted to do a movie [Moonrise Kingdom] about a childhood romance - a very powerful experience of childhood romance. About what it's like to just be blindsided, when you're in fifth grade or sixth grade, by these kinds of feelings. Along the way, I sort of mixed in some interest in young adult fantasy writing.
Wes Anderson
Sometimes when you're editing a movie, you have the thing that you don't expect - which is you make it longer and longer as you go along.
Wes Anderson
Kids are always open to anything. It's very rare that a kid isn't extremely eager to make you happy.
Wes Anderson
Mostly with commercial work, it isn't about personal vision. It's not a personal effort, it's work for hire. That's more my attitude with those. You just want to be a professional worker.
Wes Anderson
It's not usually that great of an idea to read lots of reviews of your movies, because even if somebody's saying nice things, there'll still be something in there that pushes the wrong button, and it's not really that helpful.
Wes Anderson
The kids are the ones that have a clarity about what they want. They don't have any wisdom, but they do have a clear understanding about what they want to have happen.
Wes Anderson
I'm very sorry for your loss. Your mother was a terribly attractive woman.
Wes Anderson
Anytime I make a movie, I really have absolutely no idea how it's going to go over. I've had the whole range of different kinds of reactions.
Wes Anderson
When I see the first dailies on any movie, I usually feel that I had no idea how this combination of ingredients was going to mix together, what it was going to produce.
Wes Anderson
