Portraits are supposed to "look within," but in my opinion very few people have an interior significantly different from the outside portrait.

People always say, `That stuff you did in Love Is the Devil: Study for a Portrait of Francis Bacon (1998) must have been difficult....but I say, `No, it wasn`t really: that was some of the easier stuff to do,` because it was always clear and made a lot of...
Daniel Craig
Actors do movies because you want to make a connection, you want an audience to recognise themselves in what it is that you`re depicting. The portrait, you want it to be a reflection of some aspect of humanity that people understand, that they see in thei...

On visiting the White House: I`d like to think that I`ve always left the White House with more than I arrived. Not only budget commitments, cutlery, silverware, candelabras, one or two Bush family photos... OK, one Gilbert Stuart portrait of George Washin...

Josh [Brolin] is actually better looking than [George W.] Bush but has the same drive and charisma that Americans identify with Bush, who has some of that old-time movie-star swagger. I want a fair, true portrait of the man [for my film].
Oliver Stone
We are on the verge of persuading Dame Kelly to pose for us, ... That`s if we can get her to sit still for one minute. It`s strange, but it can be very difficult to persuade people like her to sit. Doing a portrait can be a very combative experience.
Andy Fuertes
Type is one of the most eloquent means of expression in every epoch of style. Next to architecture, it gives the most characteristic portrait of a period and the most severe testimony of a nation`s intellectual status.
Ann Black
Traffic is about drugs. As detailed a portrait as I can muster about what is happening in the drug world, from top to bottom, from policy to how things move on the street.
Steven Soderbergh
There`s an overwhelming amount of material, ... You have to choose. It`s a creative act, and also subjective, so the author of a biography paints his or her own portrait. And you want to make that an interesting read and well written.
Ann Marie Tallman
There`s a discipline. When you take someone`s portrait, you don`t have to take 50 photographs, just find that one so that when you release the shutter, that`s the image that you took.
Matthew Modine
The reason that I`m an actor, or an artist, is ultimately because I`m trying to paint a self-portrait, and the most complete and beautiful self-portrait that you can.
Terrence Howard

Terrence Howard
The landscape is like being there with a powerful personality and I`m searching for just the right angles to make that portrait come across as meaningfully as possible.
Alex Grossman
The character of Annie Doultry is plainly a self-portrait of Brando. There are transcripts of conferences he and Cammell had, and Brando did a lot of improvising, playing the Annie Doultry character. Plainly he saw this as a part that he might play in a m...
David Thomson
The challenge for me has first been to see things as they are, whether a portrait, a city street, or a bouncing ball. In a word, I have tried to be objective.
Al Northington
So, did I work with Warhol? I worked with him less on that play then I did on other things. He actually did a portrait of my rabbit and some other stuff. Warhol was definitely... Warhol.
Harvey Fierstein
Not only are Christians writing about Jesus, but also Communists, Jews, atheists and agnostics are taking up their pens to paint a portrait of Jesus.
