Some people just court celebrity for the sake of it. People like Tom Cruise. He was always a great actor, but I think the man`s lost it, lost it. You won`t ever catch me jumping up and down on Oprah going on about how I love this woman. And then others st...

I`m fascinated by each individual story. I`ll walk down the street and see a homeless person, and I`ll want to stop them and say, How did this happen? Where`s your mother? Are you physically ill? Mentally ill? And this is what I wanted to know about Tom. ...

I don`t think any actor has the luxury of knowing exactly what scripts are going to turn out well and what ones aren`t. It would be wonderful to have that particular skill, and maybe people like Tom Cruise have it more than most, but you go into each proj...

Her thoughts on why Star Trek: Nemesis (2002) failed at the box office: "I think the fans want to see the whole team in action, while that was very much Picard taking center stage. Also, I didn`t think Tom [Hardy] was at all convincing as a young Patrick ...
Marina Sirtis
I like men who are very cool but also so brilliant that they are almost insane. Sean Penn, Gary Oldman, Tom Waits-men who would be flipping burgers if they hadn`t found an outlet for their brilliant mind-sets. I also like men who have hands with big mascu...
Jolene Blalock
I actually love auditioning because I usually don`t get the part. I`ve tested with Daniel Day-Lewis, De Niro, Pacino, Tom Cruise. So I`ve gotten to that point, and I understand when I don`t get it. There are a lot of very talented people out there.
Deborah Kara Unger
The funny thing is that people see one film like Racing Stripes (2005) or Ice Princess (2005) and all of a sudden, slip me into this category of "that`s what she`s always involved in" but people don`t remember that I did Normal (2003) (TV) with Jessica La...
Hayden Panettiere
It was hysterical. We wanted to make it naughty and fun. When the camera stopped rolling, it was hard to stop laughing. - about her love scene with Tom Cruise in Mission: Impossible 2 (2000)
Thandie Newton
[On preparing for his role in Apollo 13 (1995)] Ron [Howard] called me up and said, "we`re going up on this zero-G airplane and we, uh - for research. You don`t have to go. You don`t have to go. Absolutely no pressure. If you don`t want to go, you don`t h...
Kevin Bacon
It`s just me and a guitar, so I`m not going to be doing a lot of Smashing Pumpkins. I do Tom Waits, Neil Young, Bob Dylan. That`s all the good stuff, man. That`s when they had good songs written for just voice and guitar. I wish I could do Johnny Lee Hook...
James Marsters
Someone asked me once "What is the difference between Tom Cruise now and you when you were a major star?" I said there is a great difference. Look at a photograph of me from the old days and I`m going to one of my film premieres with a bottle of vodka in ...
Richard Harris
You get on a set and immediately people are wiping your ass for you, and nobody tells you when you`re being an asshole. I`m sure nobody working for Tom Cruise would turn around and say, `Tom, don`t do that anymore because you`re a dickhead to do that`. Ac...

Jonathan Rhys Meyers
I was a foreigner, and I knew that most of the parts I would be offered would be foreigners. I knew I could not compete with Bruce Willis, Tom Cruise, and Nicolas Cage, and so I did not fight it. I saw the path I was destined to walk and decided to do the...
Peter Stormare
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
Playing Freddie Miles was really easy. It was one of those parts you know exactly what you`re doing. The character is not beating around the bush at all. His main action is to expose Tom Ripley as a phoney. - On his role in the Talented Mr. Ripley.
Philip Seymour Hoffman
I never really worried about it. As I`ve amassed a body of work, the questions about Tom have gone away. I figured that if I did good work, I`d be seen for what I am. - talking about his famous cousin, Tom Cruise

People thought I was Tom and Nicole`s bodyguard. They`d come up and go, "Is it okay if I go up and ask for an autograph?` It was good. I`d charge `em three bucks a person. Yeah, you gotta make some money off of that.
George Clooney
I watched the movie Cast Away (2000). It`s a perfectly fine movie. But you can never fully believe that movie. How can we believe this man is being cast away? We know it`s Tom Hanks and we know the color of his couch in his house in L.A. because we saw a ...

Relying on the government to protect your privacy is like asking a peeping tom to install your window blinds.
