Originality now is rare in the cinema and it isn`t worth striving for because most work that does this is egocentric and pretentious. What is most enjoyable about the cinema is simply working with a language that is classical in the sense that the image i...
Wim Wenders
I couldn`t possibly do that. To be able to understand being five years old and write as if you were that age through the book till you get to that extraordinary flowery-pretentious age of the 18-/19-year-old. It`s so complicated when you`re dealing with m...
John Hurt
He`s monumentally gifted - that sounds so terrible and pretentious, I know - but he`s made nine brilliant films, all of them so different. So you think to yourself, I might disagree with you on one small thing, but I`m guessing you know what you`re doing....
Romola Garai
It may or may not sound pretentious. But I`ve turned down, consciously and specifically, many jobs I knew would have been a pretty surefire way to go about making a lot of money, being recognized and gaining power in the industry.
Val Kilmer
Billy Zane is someone that I met and is a fellow artist, and sometimes we work together, painting, however pretentious that might sound. It was really quite simple, though. We would just spend time together, hanging out, listening to music, or painting. W...
Marilyn Manson
People just love to bash LA. People say it`s so pretentious, so arrogant, so this and that. But it`s truly a wonderful place. You don`t have to go to the places where that stuff goes on. You don`t have to go to Beverly Hills, you don`t have to go to the p...
Heath Ledger
Without sounding too pretentious, I was sort of a slave to the narrative. When the narrative cracks in, I have to go where it takes me. I had to go to the Bohemian Grove. It was the obvious end to the book.
Jon Ronson
When I started off with Trainspotting, it was the way the characters came to me. That`s how they sounded to me. It seemed pretentious to sound any other way. I wasn`t making any kind of political statement.
Irvine Welsh
Most actors really love it, that`s what they want to do. They burn to do it. And so they`ll read a script and think, that`s an interesting part. And because they love acting, that blinds them to the fact that the rest of it is pretentious nonsense, which ...
Hugh Grant
I think, you know, as an actor we get these terribly sort of pretentious ideas in our heads. We try to take everything very seriously at first, you know, until we lighten up, we get onboard, and have a laugh.
Rosamund Pike
I just could not believe that 30 years later we`re still looking at people who are supposed to write little 2-minute pop that when they actually try to do something that`s a little bit more they regard it as pretentious.
Pete Townshend
Call it my little gesture toward social conscience, but I like to think I`m teaching a certain number of people to read. Now that sounds pretentious!
David Eddings
