We live in an age of mediocrity. Stars today are not the same stature as Bogie (Humphrey Bogart), James Cagney, Spencer Tracy, Henry Fonda and Jimmy Stewart (James Stewart).

Lauren Bacall
When I first read David Chase`s script, I knew this was special. This is what I`d been looking for all my life . . . When I heard James Gandolfini, Edie Falco, Michael Imperioli and Nancy Marchand were in it, I knew it was going to be a total class act. I...

[on Deliverance (1972) author/co-star James Dickey]: "He`s the kind of man that, after he has had 4 martinis, makes you want to drop a grenade down his throat."
Burt Reynolds
[on James Cagney] Jimmy Cagney was the most dynamic man who ever appeared on the screen. He should have won five Oscars, he was so fabulous. He stimulated me to such an extent. I must say that I didn`t have to act very much; I just had to react to him bec...

If they had offered me James Bond, I probably couldn`t have gone to England anymore in my life. James Bond with an accent? That would have been something.

Both Sean and I will be forgotten after everybody sees Pierce. After seeing Pierce Brosnan playing James Bond on the set of the film GoldenEye (1995)
Roger Moore
[On former James Bond George Lazenby] George is just an angry, old, pissed-off guy. He was never an actor, but some pissed-off Aussie who doesn`t know how to show his feminine side. I met him, and he`s got that kind of brittle edge to him.
Pierce Brosnan
I have my own rules and adhere to them. The rule is simple but inflexible. A James Stewart picture must have two vital ingredients: it will be clean and it will involve the triumph of the underdog over the bully.
Jimmy Stewart
I`ve been writing stories since I was a kid, and James and I had been talking about wanting to make a film for many years before this. Even though we wrote the film as a means to an end, so that James would have something to direct and I could have someth...

Leigh Whannell
I can play the bad guy, the character with the edge, but I would like him to get the girl without having to put a gun to her head, you know? Look at the careers of Robert Mitchum, Humphrey Bogart and James Cagney started out playing the adversary, too. I ...
Robert Davi
That Redford [Robert Redford] fellow is good. Brando [Marlon Brando]. Ah, Patton (1970) - George C. Scott. But the best of the bunch is Garner - James Garner. He can play anything. Comedy westerns, drama - you name it. Yeah, I have to say Garner is the be...
John Wayne
You can scratch the surface of my songs pretty lightly and you`ll find someone who wanted to be James Taylor at the age of 14. He`s also a brilliant and ridiculously underrated guitar player and blessed with a voice that could melt ice caps.
Sting
I really didn`t have to work, shall we say, with "Star Trek." It was a natural. When I opened my mouth, there was Scotty. It`s like I tell people what you see in Scotty is 99% James Doohan and 1% accent.
James Doohan
[about her relationship with actor James Dean] He wanted me to love him unconditionally, but Jimmy was not able to love someone else in return . . . it was the troubled boy that wanted to be loved very badly. I loved Jimmy as I have loved no one else in m...
Pier Angeli
It`s very important to make the man believable so that you can stretch the fantasy. Whether people like this kind of Bond is another question. (on his approach to the role of James Bond)
Timothy Dalton
There`s a bit in Performance, one of my favourite films - with James Fox giving one of my favourite performances - and there`s a scene where he`s getting ready, and there`s a bit where he arranges his Playboy lighter, and the magazines, and the ashtray, p...
Bill Nighy
I don`t think he was that great. He was good, but there was Brando, and there was founding member Steven Hill in the Actor`s Studio, those were the two guys. James Dean came in third. Dean was talented, obviously. But he died at a good time. [On James Dea...

I started out as a guitarist in the early Eighties. I hooked up with a guy who idolized James Dean and he gave me a copy of the Dean biography, `The Mutant King`, which I thought was really interesting. While reading the book, I watched Rebel Without a Ca...
