"I don’t like to watch my own movies – I fall asleep in my own movies." ― Robert De Niro Topic(s): Movies More From Robert De Niro "I’ll work with a director if I think I’m going to get into a comfortable situation, and if it’s someone I respect and who respects me, even if they’re not so well known. Movies are hard to make, and you have to work toward a common ethic and do your best." "When you make a drama, you spend all day beating a guy to death with a hammer, or what have you. Or, you have to take a bite out of somebody’s face. On the other hand, with a comedy, you yell at Billy Crystal for an hour, and you go home." "Movies are hard work. The public doesn’t see that. The critics don’t see it. But they’re a lot of work. A lot of work."

Either that or a horror movie. And the last thing Hollywood wanted in their teen movies was teenagers!"― John Hughes "People called ’28 Days’ and ’28 Weeks’ zombie movies, and they’re not! It’s some sort of virus; they’re not dead."― George A. Romero "I have a feeling, one of those gut feelings, that I’ll make pretty good movies the rest of my life."― Paul Thomas Anderson
