Drehbücher / Screenplays Zitate auf Englisch

Zitat des Tages über Drehbücher / Screenplays:

I've written about 15 screenplays and they all sold - they were all sold on pitches. Bruce Vilanch

I'm developing some screenplays at the moment with my Australian producer.

Rachel Griffiths

I think of myself as a guy who tries to write screenplays and now has tried to direct one. Anything more than that is meaningless and it gets in the way of being a real human being.

Charlie Kaufman

I've made seventeen or eighteen films now, only two of which have been original screenplays, all the others have been based on short stories or novels, and I find the long short story ideal for adaptation.

Satyajit Ray

If I really considered myself a writer, I wouldn't be writing screenplays. I'd be writing novels.

Quentin Tarantino

Screenplays I didn't really care about, journalism, travel books, getting my writer friends to write about their dreams or something. I just determined to write the books I had to write.

Kazuo Ishiguro

I think I've had pretty good experiences for the most part with the people who have directed my screenplays.

Charlie Kaufman

I've started movies without screenplays both on 'Clash' and on 'Hulk,' and that is tremendously stressful because you have a tendency to overcompensate with effects. You haven't tested it in your head. You didn't run it over and over again and covered all of the plot holes and figure it out. It's a marathon that you sprint.

Louis Leterrier

When authors who write literary fiction begin to write screenplays, everybody assumes that's the end. Here's another who's never going to write well again.

Richard Russo

I do have screenplays I've written that never saw the light of day, but I don't usually go back to them. When I've told a story, I want to tell another story.

Joss Whedon

I don't read books on how to write screenplays just because I'm stubborn. So it's all sort of made up.

Shane Carruth

I'd done table reads for my own screenplays, and I always thought they were so much fun. Why couldn't we do these for other classic screenplays and bring them to life? You can experience live theater, where you get to see plays produced by different directors and different casts, but there's really nothing like that for movie scripts.

Jason Reitman

At the moment, I'm toying with a new idea for a book, but fully engaged with writing screenplays, so the book idea - which needs empty space in my head - is barely formed yet.

Rose Tremain

When I moved to Los Angeles, I wrote spec screenplays. I was really poor, and I thought I was just gonna do this for a while to make a little money so I could write novels. I thought movies were a second-class art form. I condescended to it - I didn't know enough to know it was really gonna be hard.

Stephen Gaghan

A government institution called the Finnish Film Foundation funds filmmaking there, and I wrote several screenplays but never got any money. They were sent back to me, and they said that they were too commercial for them.

Renny Harlin

Most screenplays depend primarily on the vision of a director.

Tom Skerritt

Generally, screenplays suck.

Grant Heslov

When I graduated college I needed to make money while I was pursuing acting, so I read screenplays and made a living writing coverage on them for studios.

Sasha Alexander

I actually think I'm probably more interested in structure than most people who write screenplays, because I think about it.

Charlie Kaufman

But the longer I'm in the business, you see a lot of times these screenplays have been rewritten 5 times and you're not really offending an author.

Edward Burns

I don't card out my screenplays ever. I just have an idea I just sit down and write I don't edit.

Nia Vardalos

I find screenplays easy to write, my novels being very visual. You see what people look like. The physical action is described.

John Irving

I've been a screenwriter for twenty-five years. Every one of my books have been optioned for movies and I have written a few of those screenplays.

Alice Hoffman

I do have some theatrical background. I've written plays and seen plays and read plays. But I also read novels. One thing I don't read is screenplays.

Charlie Kaufman

Writing screenplays makes me a better musician because it clears my head. After writing a movie, I go running back to music as fast as I can.

Nick Cave

I started writing screenplays myself and eventually directing.

Peter Landesman

I do not think I will ever write screenplays based on my books. I would not know what to cut out and what portions to keep. I like all the characters I have created. I cannot imagine chopping them off.

Ravi Subramanian

I've written a couple screenplays and half-finished plays.

Christopher Meloni

The whole process of making movies and writing screenplays is visceral and intuitive.

Ridley Scott

I write screenplays in the middle of the night.

Ray Bradbury

Over the years, many producers have come and gone, and screenplays were written and abandoned. It's the Hollywood process. It's hard to get things done.

Lawrence Blume

It's hard writing screenplays.

Ridley Scott

I've written about 15 screenplays and they all sold - they were all sold on pitches.

Bruce Vilanch

I've only ever taken a playwriting class, but I like creative writing and writing screenplays.

Gia Coppola

I just really loved films and thought I should be writing screenplays.

Leonard Mlodinow

I did write a couple of original screenplays, but I'd rather write plays.

Beth Henley

I don't generate a storyline and then fill it out in the course of writing. The story actually generates in the course of the writing. It's one of the reasons I've never been comfortable doing screenplays, because in order to get the contract for the screenplay, you have to sit down and tell them what's going to happen.

William Gibson
