Let me just tell you how thrilling it really is, and how, what a challenge it is, because in 1988 the question is whether we`re going forward to tomorrow or whether we`re going to go past to the - to the back!
Dan Quayle
(On appearing in Don Roos`s edgy dark comedy The Opposite of Sex (1998)): "I wanted to do a bigger movie with a broader audience. I realized there are people between the coasts that have no idea I`ve worked since "Roseanne" (1988).
Johnny Galecki
(after filming The Unbearable Lightness of Being (1988)) I was hopelessly at sea. I was extremely unhappy most of the time. I think I probably felt I`d made a fundamental error in agreeing to do that movie even though it was the part and the film that eve...
Daniel Day-Lewis
(When asked what he thought about being voted "Sexiest Man Alive 1988" by People Magazine) "People could say a lot worse things about you than you`re really attractive and you look good in a bathing suit."
John Kennedy, Jr.
[speaking in 1988] "My life has taken off - my life, my career - everything. I can honestly say I`ve never been happier. I`m walking around thinking any minute now, 25 tons of horse-shit is going to fall on my head."
Bob Hoskins
[On his role in The Last Temptation of Christ (1988)]: "To this day, I can`t believe I was so brazen to think I could pull off the Jesus role."
Willem Dafoe
I can`t imagine not having music in my life, playing for myself or for other people. If I was asked, `Which would you give up,` I`d have to say acting, he said in an interview with The Associated Press in 1988.
Dudley Moore
[on selecting roles] There`s very few things that I`ll turn my nose up at, because some of my biggest successes have been ones totally out of left field. Stand and Deliver (1988) was a tiny little film made for less than $1 million. If I can find somethin...
Lou Diamond Phillips
[On his money setbacks]: I trusted my manager with my money during my illness. Now I was broke. Money woes stayed with me. I grabbed whatever pictures were offered. Admittedly films like Malone (1987), _Rent-A-Cop (1987)_ and Switching Channels (1988) all...
Burt Reynolds
No one trusts me any more. I spent half the movie Maigret (1988) (TV) arguing with people and I was accused of causing big on-set rows. But what they won`t tell you is I fought for Simeneon. I fought for the maintenance of quality. I don`t believe in lyin...
Richard Harris
The first time I felt I was famous was when I went to the movies with my mom. I had gone to the loo, and someone in the bathroom said in a very loud voice, `Girl in stall No. 1, were you in Mystic Pizza (1988)? I paused and I said, yeah that was me. - (Pe...
Julia Roberts
(About Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers (1988)) "It was my first movie, so I was more excited about that - just being an actress, never mind being in a horror movie. At that time, I wasn`t even a horror movie fan. I did "Halloween 4" and Halloween...
Danielle Harris
Kerri and I met at theater camp when were 16 years old, which is pretty lame. The rest of us met when we founded the State at New York University in 1988. Most of our adult lives have been spent bickering with these people.
Thomas Lennon
[from a 1988 interview] I`ve never looked at acting as "Ahhh!" and "Gee!" I started in vaudeville when I was five and for me it was just walking on a stage and I`m gonna perform. Later on I was impressed by many things, like when I worked with Burt Lancas...
Billy Barty
The idea that if your film takes place in 1988 it should only have music from 1988 shows a totally limited sense of history and how history is an accumulation of details. Is all your furniture from 2007?

James Gray
Hollywood is full of closet Republicans, and also you`re sometimes not sure who your friends are. When the whole Bull Durham (1988) controversy happened there were three people who came very vociferously to our support, all either very conservative Democr...
Tim Robbins
On Cocktail (1988): "If I`d known that it was just going to be about these guys throwing drinks around then I might have had some second thoughts . . ."
Elisabeth Shue
In a 1988 Premiere magazine article, Matthew talked about his love scene with his Torch Song Trilogy (1988) costar, Brian Kerwin. He said, "It was fun being romantic, sexy with a man".
Matthew Broderick

Matthew Broderick
[about Red Heat (1988)] I told Walter Hill, "I`ll do a walk-on for you, or a starring role, I don`t care". He made me a film actor. He said, "Fine, now you`re a film actor" in Southern Comfort (1981), and it was one of the best roles I ever had. I told Wa...
Brion James
Don`t remake a successful picture, because you`re liable to be the flop. Steve Martin and I made a much better picture of Dirty Rotten Scoundrels (1988) than Marlon Brando and David Niven did. What I wouldn`t do anymore is play any guest shots. I`ve given...
Michael Caine
I`ve been a character actress right from the beginning. I was no more like Cinderella in my real life than I was like the neurotic poet in Cop (1988). Age has nothing to do with being the kind of actress who relies not on magnetic personality, but on disa...
Lesley Warren
About his grief on wife`s Natalie Wood`s death (1988). "When Natalie (Natalie Wood) died, I was embittered. I still get angry about it and I wonder why it had to happen. I have all those feelings of grief and anger that people who`ve lost someone they lov...
Robert Wagner
I believe in a higher power. I`ve studied Eastern philosophies, and I`ve studied the Koran. We`ve devalued everything worth believing in. Now we`re tearing into religion. A line should be drawn. The Last Temptation of Christ (1988) and The Da Vinci Code (...
