More quotes by William H. Macy
You should know the lines, be prepared, get sleep, and have the script analyzed so you're ready to rock and roll.
William H. Macy
I got an agent. He said, what do you wanna do, and I said, I want an Oscar nomination. That's your job, that's what I'm paying you for. And I got it.
William H. Macy
I think theater is powerful. The best experiences I had in the theater are more powerful than the best experiences I had in movies.
William H. Macy
We all want to be 20 again and have that first sense of love.
William H. Macy
I really love hanging out on the set, and I love the life, and all of that. But I don't think I could stick with this profession if it weren't for those 15 minutes a day when I get to act. That's the part I love. For some strange reason, it's the time that I'm the least self-conscious in my whole life.
William H. Macy
I love directors who talk action as opposed to emotion.
William H. Macy
I don't know if it's fair to say that it's a bad time for movies. It seems to me that throughout the entire history of filmmaking, every year there have been about two really wonderful movies, about 10 others that are pretty good, and a whole pile of garbage.
William H. Macy
It was my first impulse, but I chose to play the priest as a true believer who was an absolute man of faith that absolutely supports the church.
William H. Macy
I've always felt that, no matter where you go, people are just people.
William H. Macy
It's hard to be depressed around a ukulele. You just pick it up and you're halfway home.
William H. Macy
Our glorification of violence is ripping society apart. I don't want my children exposed to it.
William H. Macy
To a certain extent. I'm a fan of rehearsal on the day [of the shoot], more than getting together a week beforehand.
William H. Macy
I have been working out for 30 years, staying in shape in the dream that someday I would get to play a sex scene. Finally I get one, and they cut it.
William H. Macy
I loved Batman, don't get me wrong, but that kind of mindless violence is not good for young children.
William H. Macy
At the end of the day, what actors really want to do is act a lot and not wait around in the trailer.
William H. Macy
I've studied Stanislavsky, and Mamet taught Stanislavsky, and I studied with Sanford Meisner. But the part of the method that I think is the most fruitful is the method of physical actions. It all comes down to your objective: Nothing else counts except what you want. How you feel will take care of itself.
William H. Macy
One of the things I did early on in film was over-enunciate and talk too loud.
William H. Macy
I think I've been in situations where they looked at me and just see some rich white guy - they don't see me at all.
William H. Macy
I was a dog in a past life. Really. I'll be walking down the street and dogs will do a sort of double take. Like, Hey, I know him.
William H. Macy
If I had my choice, I would do the same little independent films, but they would have $100 million budgets, so I could get paid a fortune and hang out in a huge trailer.
William H. Macy
