people tools stories
I'm certainly hoping that 3D gets to the point where people do not notice it because once they stop noticing it, it just becomes another tool and an aid to help tell a story.
perfect stories opinion
Not every movie, in my opinion, should be in 3D. There are a lot of stories I wouldn't shoot in 3D. But, you know, there are movies that are perfect in 3D.
thinking mirrors stories
It [Lincoln movie] had nothing to do with politics. It had nothing to do with holding a mirror up to the way we conduct our business on Capitol Hill. This was meant to be a story, a Lincoln portrait if you will. I think any time is the right time for a very compelling story, any time.
cameras stories
I compose the frame literally with the camera. Unless it makes a story point.
film-directing people stories
People have forgotten how to tell a story.
unconventional stories storytelling
I don't make unconventional stories; I don't make non-linear stories. I like linear storytelling a lot.
father vision stories
I've always wanted to tell a story about Lincoln. I saw a paternal father figure; I saw someone who was completely, stubbornly committed to his ideals, to his vision.
technology way telling-stories
My filmmaking really began with technology. It began through technology, not through telling stories, because my 8mm movie camera was the way into whatever I decided to do.
stories terror
When I don't have a story to tell, I'm a terror to live with.
stories way receiving
[The way Stanley Kubrick] tells a story is antithetical to the way we are accustomed to receiving stories.
war character stories
There's no better way to test a person than to put them in the middle of a war. That's clearly going to show what kind of a character you're telling a story about.
stories incredibles moments
My movies more often are told through pictures, not words. But in this case, the pictures took second position to the incredible words of Abraham Lincoln and his presence [...] I was less interested in an outpouring of imagery than in letting the most human moment of this story evolve before us.
becoming looks stories
I go out and look for a good story to tell and if I like it enough and I decide to direct it, I become dangerously involved in becoming a part of that story.
motivational giving stories
Audiences are harder to please if you're just giving them effects, but they're easy to please if it's a good story.
