We have a collection of 5 Movies quotes from Alexander Payne
"The novel succeeds on terms exclusive to literature. A good film succeeds on terms exclusive to the cinema. That's why so many bad novels can become good movies, like 'Jaws' or 'The Godfather.'" (ID 64189)
"Each one of my movies becomes easier to get off the ground." (ID 64190)
"I mean, look, I love movies, not just the ones I make... In fact, I don't like the movies I make very much." (ID 64191)
"I guess maybe I try to make movies that are closer to real life than are many Hollywood movies. But I still try to stay within a commercial narrative, a contemporary American vernacular." (ID 64192)
"Even if we die at 100, we're still dying young. I want at least 700 years. There's a lot of travelling and books to read and movies to see. I'm not going to squeeze it all in in 85 years." (ID 64200)
