"I watch movies occasionally, and I watch documentaries. Virtually nothing else." ― Don DeLillo Topic(s): Movies More From Don DeLillo "I think more than writers, the major influences on me have been European movies, jazz, and Abstract Expressionism." "The writer is the person who stands outside society, independent of affiliation and independent of influence." "People who are powerless make an open theater of violence." More In Movies "Even today, in our progressive times, in most movies that come out, the men have to have biceps and the women have to be thin or something."― Joseph Gordon-Levitt "Skinniness is not your friend when you’re over 40. I’d like to gain a good 10 pounds, but I did always have a fat, round face that plagued me when I was young. When I started to make movies, I couldn’t look at myself."― Ellen Barkin "I was a little doubtful about the propriety of going to the Mammoth Cave without a gentleman escort, but if two ladies travel alone they must have the courage of men."― Maria Mitchell
