Letter "A" » Amy Irving Quotes
«Theater actors know what their motivation is for each scene. They treat it very seriously as a craft. You do your homework. The reason I always need to go back to theater is the most stimulating moments are in rehearsal... whereas often in film, you've go to do it on your own.»
Author: Amy Irving
«I used to travel in tennis shoes; I am just not allowed to anymore. I'm an old hippie from San Francisco.»
Author: Amy Irving
«I'm not very good when people work out of friction... tension. Shouters. Even it's not at me, but just around me - if I get tense, my creative juices don't flow as freely. I really like kindness. I also don't work well with directors that smoke cigars.»
Author: Amy Irving
«I will argue my points; I will have my opinions. But at the end of the day, it's the director's choice.»
Author: Amy Irving
«There is a sort of creative purity in an independent film, in the passion of the director, the passion of the crew. They're not getting a whole lot of money, so you know they are not there because they want to get rich. Instead, they are there because they want to make a movie. In the bigger films, I remember when I used to do those, it's just a job for a lot of people, so there is less of an intense energy devoted to the whole project.»
Author: Amy Irving
«When my career first began, I didn't have children - so there's a whole lot of difference in the way I choose roles now. Not just films for my children, but how long I'm going to be away, and is Dad going to be home while I'm gone. That sort-of factor plays a part.»
Author: Amy Irving
«And you know, the baby boomers are getting older, and those off the rack clothes are just not fitting right any longer, and so, tailor-made suits are coming back into fashion.»
Author: Amy Irving
«Brazilians need to work on their own national pride. I always think that they suffer from national low-self esteem. It's a lesser-developed country, and they have struggled so much. Sometimes they have an attitude that, if it's Brazilian, it can't be good.»
Author: Amy Irving
«In the U.S., with very few exceptions, actresses older than 35 are simply discarded.»
Author: Amy Irving
«Actors are not a great breed of people, I don't think. I count myself as something of an exception. I grew up in the theater, and my values were about the work, and not being a star or anything like that. I'm not spoiled in that way, and if I fight for something, it's about the work, not about how big my trailer is.»
