“The idea there is to actually bring in cameras to go behind the scenes in some key decision-making meetings and product reviews.”
Dan Bedore
“For me, certain shots or scenes are keys in the movie.”
Sam Mendes
“The keys were handed over in a panic by the official who then fled the scene to look for assistance.”
Superintendent Nondumiso Jafta
“First, there are so many artists. Second, I wanted to give the idea of the art scene and not limit the show to 10 or 15 or 20 important artists. I wanted to restitute something of the life of the scene. Another problem was that I had to decide which artists I could consider. Most are not really from L.A.; they arrived as students or teachers and stayed. Others were born in Los Angeles, but left early. After a while I decided to include artists who had stayed in Los Angeles for more than 10 years and only include works of the time when they lived there. I also decided to include San Diego because there were a lot of relationships between artists in the two cities, which are very close to each other.”
Catherine Grenier
“[Of course, sometimes when you go behind the scenes like this all you get is another scene: a carefully composed snapshot, not of what an athlete is like off the field, but of what he wants you to think he's like off the field. I'm sure, by now, most fans realize this and recognize the dangers of hero worship.] Idolatry is really not good for anyone, ... Not even the idols.”
John Bach
“We had shot very long scenes, and no scene was like the other. The actors were allowed to move within the scene as they pleased, and they never needed to follow any determined action.”
Lars von Trier
“That's my favorite scene, because we were all together, ... Those are my favorite scenes, when we're all there having a good time, and it was a scene that we could really have fun with and be really mean and do different things. I think it's cool to do movies and do things that you wouldn't be able to do in real life, and that's a thing I wouldn't get to do in life, so that's what makes it fun.”
