“[In the margins of the 1962 script for] Something's Got to Give, ... Some changes should be made but not like this -- either they have to trust me to play the scenes with heart, or we are lost. This writer maybe (sic) good but what has been written new pages will inhibit me.”
Marilyn Monroe
“People change-- you have no right to ask them where their "real" selves have gone.”

“I submitted the script and they gave me a list of changes to make, and I did not agree with the changes.”
Joan Chen
“I've turned down a lot of stuff. I've read several scripts and said "That's not me, I'm not interested in doing that." It's got to be something that inspires me and captures my imagination. I want to be able to say "There's a challenge."”
Karl Urban
“I get a script and it's really interesting with scripts, because you never really know. It's paper and it could be great or awful. Even scripts that are good could end up not working.”
Amanda Bynes
“Of course, I'm not allowed to talk about the script, but I can say it is a really good story.”
Aaron Stanford
“It was a very concise, taut script, ... I simply chose not to have a standard car chase or any of that nonsense. I felt it was all about what's going on between these two characters. And the moment they're separated, I want to figure out how to get them back together again. I've actually had a lot of people thanking me for not making the movie go any longer than it had to.”
Wes Craven
