“Billy Wilder once told me, 'Make 'em personal,' ... 'But make 'em for the people.' ”
Cameron Crowe
“If you're going to tell people the truth, be funny or they'll kill you.”
Billy Wilder
“I love telling stories about people that don't normally get written about. It's a different kind of life here. This is a movie from the heart, and it's a little different from the normal movies you'll see.”
“It's very simple, I just tell my sad story, and people weep.”
Corazon Aquino
“The thing was always, as every story you write has a built-in problem, was: Was it too personal. That was the thing I wondered about for a long time. Oddly enough, it's often the personal stuff that people come up to you later and say about it, 'I can't believe you put that in a movie. That happened to me.' And sometimes, the thing that you make up happened to no one.”
“You ask me why I am happy with you right now? Well, it's been 50 years of long story and it keeps counting and counting each moment. I bet you can't wait to hear the end of it. It's way further than forever.”
Dison Arnibal
“Doing the movies and meeting the people, and I like the stories of the movies. I like names a lot, too. When I do an audition, there is a script and it has a first page that has the names of all the characters. I'm like, "Let me see that real quick, I wanna see what my name is gonna be".”
