I do think that Live Aid (1985) (TV) was a great thing, it focused people, I think it showed young kids the way in many respects and I think a lot of people are still inspired by what happened in the mid-Eighties.
George Michael
[About his roles as Tony Baretta and Father Noah Hardstep in "Baretta" (1975) and "Hell Town" (1985), respectively]: There are more similarities than differences. They both care a lot about people and they both get impatient with the system if the system ...

(On having to do filming on two different projects at once, Mirrors (1985) (TV) and "Cover Up" (1984)): I`d get up at 5 for Mirrors, be on that set all day, start work on Cover Up at 7 P.M., work until 2 A.M., and then start the whole cycle over again. A ...

[1985 quote on Goldie Hawn] Goldie does something that none of the other actresses can do. She has a whimsy and a comedic ability that no one else has. We can all imitate her, but we can`t get near it. I don`t think that Goldie has yet branched out as muc...
Sally Field
The problem is there aren`t many calls for 7`4 black actors. Still, if I had let myself get discouraged I wouldn`t be here now. I believe in myself and my acting." (from a 1985 "Starlog" interview)
Kevin Hall
On her love scene with Bill Pullman in Mr. Wrong (1996): "It`s a combination of Something Wild (1986), After Hours (1985) and Mary Poppins (1964)....if Mary Poppins were naked."
Ellen DeGeneres
I was on this remote island a thousand miles off the coast of Kenya. The island didn`t have electricity, but some people had generators, and I went to someone`s house and there was a video of Desperately Seeking Susan (1985) playing. I think it was the on...
Aidan Quinn
[on what he remembers about making Crime Wave (1985)] Three months in Detroit, which was where we were. Murder City. I was really sick, I was doing a lot of drugs, but I told Sam Raimi, "Put me on, but don`t say cut, let me go". He did and I went and basi...
Brion James
[Talking about Andrew McCarthy and why he inspired him to be an actor] Yeah, St. Elmo`s Fire (1985) is probably the one that I love him in the most. He was really vulnerable, really open, I think. And he had floppy hair, kind of bad hair, and I had really...
James McAvoy
In 1985 he told the Guardian newspaper that he hoped by the end of his life to have put everything in order -- "a kind of little bow, tied on life. And I can see myself drifting off into eternity, or nothing, or whatever it may be, with all sorts of bits ...
Alec Guinness
Live Aid (1985) (TV) was pretty shambolic. We came together and rehearsed with a drummer we`d never met before and then we were joined by Phil Collins, who we`d never played with before, on this great Live Aid (1985) (TV) stage. We went there with the spi...

Jimmy Page
[taped message in January 1985, after he died of lung cancer] Now that I`m gone, I tell you: Don`t smoke, whatever you do, just don`t smoke. If I could take back that smoking we wouldn`t be talking about any cancer. I`m convinced of that.
Yul Brynner
I sometimes found myself more comfortable around my TV family than I did with my own parents and sisters. - About working on "Growing Pains" (1985).
Kirk Cameron
[Phenomena (1985)] was inspired by something I heard about insects being used to solve crimes, and because insects have always fascinated me I began to make a story around this idea. You know, it`s a terrible thing, but there are many insects that are dis...
Dario Argento
[on the sexual tension between Booth and Brennan in "Bones" (2005)] The potential for their personal lives entering into their professional lives is, I just think, dynamic. I think we all remember when we would watch "Moonlighting" (1985). You never remem...
David Boreanaz
[talking about his former band members in Pink Floyd in 2002, and why he had left Pink Floyd in 1985] "I knew that we were over with, as far as the traditional `band of brothers` notion of a rock group goes. I mean, we just weren`t like that any more and ...
Roger Waters
Like Billy [his character in "Neighbours" (1985)], my dad is a GP and my two eldest brothers are, too. If I wasn`t acting, I would have definitely gone into medicine, too. It`s totally fascinating.
Jesse Spencer
I`d like to produce, direct, write, score, and star in a film in exactly the way [Charlie] Chaplin did. I`ll do that before I`m thirty. - in 1985Eddie Murphy
[From 1994 interview when asked the reasons for the success of A Room with a View (1985)] "I`ve never seen it, so I don`t know. Florence was lovely of course, and it`s a wonderful love story. I did enjoy doing the part, because Maggie Smith and I were old...
Judi Dench
I`ll be watching TV and all of a sudden I`ll think, `Hey, I`m in this!` A lot of times I don`t even know the names of [the movies]. I just show up. From 1985, when I first started, to 1990, I did a shit-load of B-movies about prisons. They would always sa...
