More quotes by Wes Anderson
I just now put [Robert Altman] down feeling heartbroken but happily and deeply inspired. . . . Wonderful.
Wes Anderson
Animating is a very slow, pain-staking process and the animators become the actors at that point.
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
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
People often call and say: Can you help me to get Bill Murray in our movie. But I'm always like, well I don't know how to do that! I've sometimes tried and not been able to get him but then I'll suddenly be very surprised by the thing that he will suddenly decide to do.
Wes Anderson
I chose philosophy because it sounded like something I ought to be interested in. I didn't know anything about it, I didn't even know what it was talking about. What I really spent my time doing in those years was writing short stories. There were all sorts of interesting courses, but what I really wanted to do was make stories one way or another.
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
With each movie I have a different set of inspirations.
Wes Anderson
Do you know how writers often say the characters take over... But that is more or less what it always feels like to me, too. Even though that's just a way of describing how your brain is working, it's still what you tend to feel.
Wes Anderson
I don't really look for challenges as much as I like adventures. Other than that I'm just trying to find stories I want to tell.
Wes Anderson
I didn't think so much of him at first. But now I get it: he's everything that I'm not.
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
Working with kids is usually very fun. They get so into movie and they're up for anything. Usually they're having such an exciting experience, everybody feels that.
Wes Anderson
You don't do background music the way a lot of more conventional films do. The music is often kind of a character in your films to the extent that sometimes you stop and watch someone perform a song.
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
A prototype is always more expensive than anything.
Wes Anderson
I have a way of filming things and staging them and designing sets. There were times when I thought I should change my approach, but in fact, this is what I like to do. It's sort of like my handwriting as a movie director. And somewhere along the way, I think I've made the decision: I'm going to write in my own handwriting.
Wes Anderson
I will say that Edward Norton, who plays the scout master, would be a first-rate Eagle Scout. He's got all those techniques. If your plane crashes into the jungle somewhere, he would be the guy you would want to have with you.
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
