Zitat des Tages über Unabhängige Filme / Independent Movies:
You really don't get paid in these independent movies, no matter how many people see them.
I was making a lot of independent movies before the independent movement.
I worked on three independent movies in close succession and... I really learned from those directors how to stay on budget, make your days, get it done, keep everyone happy, which is a huge thing in a movie, and to steer the ship.
I've done so many independent movies I'm sure no one will ever see, but I've loved the work.
I couldn't survive just doing independent movies. And I'd rather do modelling than movies or TV I didn't like.
Sometimes you find that there is better material in small and more independent movies. There's more risk-taking.
Sometimes the characters I find the most compelling are in independent movies. With independent scripts people can take more challenges.
I only pay to take my son to the movies, because most of the time I only watch European movies, independent movies, or screen them privately. But I like to go to movies with my son because it's still fun; it reminds me of why I make movies.
I think independent movies are actually very challenging right now, because it was this huge scene and it was great for a few years. Then, it was totally co-opted by the studios. Now, it's become very corporate, the independent scene.
I've had some of the best craft services on independent movies, actually, because they get more creative, generally, with a smaller budget. The work is still the same. I didn't really notice the difference other than I was getting dressed behind a curtain, basically.
For me, to do a reality show is like sending myself to actor's graveyard. I feel like I should wait and create my own projects... do independent movies before I would have to go and do reality shows. Or produce one and come up with one on my own!
Based on the name value I had, I went to L.A. and got involved in independent movies.
I crave working on those small independent movies because I love going to see those myself.
I love making independent movies, and that's pretty much what I'm going to be doing for the rest of my years.
You could just do independent movies, but I like bigger kind of studio movies, at least some of them.
I've made three musical movies which is pretty good considering that not many are made but I was lucky in other ways. I came along when independent movies were starting to boom.
I don't want to produce anymore small or independent movies because it's just too hard these days.
Amazon may be the only studio that's run by people who come out of making independent movies, real hands-on moviemaking.
It'll be the Internet and piracy that will kill film. There's a philosophy that the Internet should be free, but the reality is that piracy will destroy the film industry and film as an art form because it's expensive to make a movie. Maybe you'll have funky little independent movies, and it'll go back and then start up again some other way.
I like independent movies, documentaries. There's not a lot of movies that are commercially made that I dig.
I just feel like with independent movies... they're really free to do whatever they want. They're not afraid to make a statement about anything, and there's not a huge studio behind them making sure that everything is wholesome and politically correct and all that.
I really love the independent movies and I just think that sometimes when they throw a lot of money into it and a lot of special effects and a lot of stunts that you lose the connection, the human connection and I personally love movies that are about the human connection.
I've been sort of spoiled on the TV end because HBO feels like a small institution making independent movies. There's respect for the director's contribution in a way that mainstream television doesn't really reflect, I don't think.
Sometimes the independent movies can get a little too arty-farty. You watch the IFC Channel and you want to throw up. You don't always have to take things so serious, you know.
