"My sense is, I think it’s okay for directors to do movies that speak to other work in their career." ― Ivan Reitman Topic(s): Movies More From Ivan Reitman "A good actor is someone who knows how to take the part and make it real and make it honest and be effective in it. If it’s in a funny movie and, as long as they are cast in an appropriate way, humor will come from it." "I don’t think my sense of humor has changed at all; I was born with this, for better or for worse." "Movies either work or they don’t work and they’re either funny or they’re not and we work very hard. To achieve that kind of work is really kind of delicate stitching." More In Movies "For a number of years, I’d been around the kind of people who financed movies and the kind of people who are there to make the deals for movies. But I’d always had this naive idea that everybody wants to make movies as good as they can be, which is stupid."― David Fincher "When I was a kid and going to the movies I was overwhelmed by the way women were always second-class citizens in the film."― Brit Marling "No matter what message you are about to deliver somewhere, whether it is holding out a hand of friendship, or making clear that you disapprove of something, is the fact that the person sitting across the table is a human being, so the goal is to always establish common ground."― Madeleine Albright
