Jerry O`Connell
Wall Streets got interested in film and communications, and these are the people who brought you the Big Mac. In the past twelve years, I can`t think of one classic they`ve made. (1996)
Francis Ford Coppola
About Madonna: "She`s a dear old friend, so seeing her at the Evita (1996) premiere was a high point. She never looked more beautiful, glamorous and happy" (In Style magazine, Sept/2006).
Debi Mazar
The studio said Bottle Rocket (1996) was their worst-testing movie in history, so I looked into the marines. Maybe I was influenced by An Officer and a Gentleman (1982). Or those marine commercials - they were so cool! Like a Led Zeppelin song come to lif...
Owen Wilson
I thought Bio-Dome (1996) was pretty cool. I had fun making it and I`m a huge Pauly Shore fan. I`d go to his movies and be on the floor of the aisle, convulsing with laughter. And, in the meantime, my wife would sit in her chair, saying, `Honey, what`s wr...
Stephen Baldwin
When I did Stealing Beauty (1996), I was just a kid. I`d done a couple of movies, but I`d never been to an acting class in my life. But what I took away from it more than anything was the sense that, even though I was the central character, it was my job ...
Liv Tyler
[on the role of "The Daily Show" (1996)]: When we spot silliness, we say so out loud. We`re not really Democrat or Republican. We`re out to stop that political trend of repeating things again and again until people are forced to believe them.
Jon Stewart
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
Half of this award should go to my wigs 1996 BAFTA Awards talking about her wigs in the BBC`s acclaimed mini-series "Pride and Prejudice" (1995) (mini).
Jennifer Ehle
Kissing Claire was good. I was really nervous, though. I hadn`t kissed many girls in real life. - about his scene with Claire Danes in the film To Gillian on Her 37th Birthday (1996).
Freddie Prinze JR
[On the success of Jurassic Park (1993), The Lost World: Jurassic Park (1997) and Independence Day (1996)]: The success of these three movies has certainly made my life less stressful and I`m having great fun slaying aliens and dinosaurs.
Jeff Goldblum
Some of my favorite films include Out of Sight (1998) and Schizopolis (1996). So, the thing that got me most excited about getting the part was the opportunity to work with Steven Soderbergh. (when asked why he chose the part in the film Traffic (2000)).
Topher Grace
[on his role in "The Daily Show" (1996)]: Liberal and conservative have lost their meaning in America. I represent the distracted center. [March 2003].
Jon Stewart
[On playing her part of Claire Spencer in What Lies Beneath (2000)] "I thought about Drew Barrymore in the first Scream (1996/I) - I mean, ultimately that movie was more funny than scary, but the opening sequence was quite terrifying, and she portrayed te...
Michelle Pfeiffer
This was the golden boy of all history. I`ve been trying to make [`Alexander`] for a long time. In 1991 with Val Kilmer, in 1996 with Tom Cruise. Then Colin Farrell came along, and he was perfect. He was a tough, Tyrone Power, barstool-looking boy from Du...
Oliver Stone
I love it when people get really mean and call you a `hack`. It`s like, don`t they see how well these movies are doing? They make an impression around the world. I met this guy in Bali who lives in a hut with a TV, and he loved The Rock (1996). That means...
Michael Bay
He`s a precious man. He`s got a lot of bad press lately but I think he`s out to try to save the world, not destroy it (Commenting on Cat Stevens` (Yusuf Islam`s) deportation from the United States in September 2004 (Source - "The Daily Show" (1996) Octobe...
Dolly Parton
[on why he loves "The Daily Show" (1996)]: It saves me from sitting at home in my underwear screaming at the television set. If I didn`t do this show I`d be the crazy guy at the bar sitting at the corner screaming "He doesn`t know shit about what he`s tal...
Jon Stewart
On Steven Spielberg`s picking actors for the parts: "What really impressed me is that Steven wasn`t only looking for good actors for "High Incident" (1996). He wanted good people, too."
Matt Craven
My career has been in theatre for 23 years, with spits and coughs in bits and pieces of films. Scott [Hicks] very nicely said my entire career had been my audition [for the role in Shine (1996)].
Geoffrey Rush
It`s a little uncomfortable doing love scenes in armor, but, you know, when the heat`s on, the heat`s on. - "Access Hollywood" (1996), August 2000.
Heath Ledger
I grew up watching sci-fi and monster movies like I Was a Teenage Werewolf (1957) and all those creepy old Vincent Price horror movies. They made a huge impression on me and I think that`s what Independence Day (1996) is going to do for a whole generation...
Jeff Goldblum
I was a novice as far as film was concerned. I`d been working for 20 years at the time, then all that happened. [In reference to Secrets & Lies (1996) and her Academy Award nomination.]
Brenda Blethyn
[My fans] say, `I`ve seen Star Wars and Moulin Rouge!. What else should we try to see you in?` I always tell `em to get The Pillow Book (1996). That would be a bit of an eye-opener for them, wouldn`t it?
Ewan McGregor
[People Magazine 8 July 1996] There`s something about death that is comforting. The thought that you could die tomorrow frees you to appreciate life now.
Angelina Jolie
