I don`t storyboard anything. I go on a set in the morning and, unless a scene requires a lot of props, I won`t even tell the crew what I`m going to shoot first. I know what the setup is and which actors are required. But I have to see what occurs and like...
Robert Altman
[on her film debut in The Last Picture Show (1971) and her romance with its director. Peter Bogdanovich] When a film wraps, the actors often like to keep some of their props or wardrobe as mementos. I wanted the heart-shaped locket and brown and white sad...
Cybill Shepherd
On his fling with Communism: "What did I care for labor? For racial discrimination? For civil liberties and the war between the classes? Oh, I cared in my own fashion. I cared just enough to embrace these things as props, flailing away night after night a...

When you`re doing a voice for an animated project, you don`t have the props and the different visual things that make it a bit easier for an actor to make a scene real for you. So you`re stuck in a booth alone and you`re kind of forced to use your imagina...
Jeremy Sisto
When I give props to these movies, you have to understand - it`s not like they were all good. There`s an expression: You have to drink a lot of milk before you can appreciate cream. Well, with exploitation movies, you have to drink a lot of milk-gone-bad ...
Quentin Tarantino
I never really got off on awards so much. I think it`s more for the people who give them and also for the fans. I get a lot of props from people in the street and a lot of love and congratulation, pats on back, so it`s a good feeling you know the after-ef...
Prince
[During the 20 year Ghostbusters reunion commentary on the Ghostbusters DVD] "Acting is all about big hair and funny props... All the great actors knew it. Olivier knew it, Brando knew it."
Harold Ramis
[on Alfred Hitchcock] You can see from the way he uses actors that he sees them as animated props. He casts his films very, very carefully and he knows perfectly well in advance that all the actors that he chooses are perfectly capable of playing the part...
James Mason
You can`t act alone. Use the props, the setting, the crew around you, and of course your fellow actors. Acting is like a sporting match; a tennis game, but no one should win or lose. The game`s the thing!
Jon Polito
The main prank that we play with props is for people`s birthdays. The special effects people will put a little explosive in the cake so it blows up in their face - that`s always fun to play on a guest star, or one of the trainees or someone who`s new.
Catherine Bell
If you want to have great sex, find a partner who really turns you on. Pills are merely props, and props can turn out to be a big drag.

I watched a couple of really bad directors work, and I saw how they completely botched it up and missed the visual opportunities of the scene when we had put things in front of them as opportunities. Set pieces, props and so on.
James Cameron
I love to come in and play with a wig or glasses or clothes. I love using props. I`m from the Peter Sellers school of trying to prepare for the character.
Dan Aykroyd
An acting assistant stage manager in a theater in Canterbury, a rep theater. A small wage but just enough to get by on, and I made props and I walked on, and I changed scenery, and I realized that I just loved it.
