Although charismatic, James Dean is no Harrison Ford. In the majority of his movies, sooner or later he got the crap beaten out of him. – Dean Koontz
I have to admit that when I watch a movie in which there is no moral context for the violence – I find that offensive. I think thats potentially damaging to society. – Dean Koontz
In my books, I never portray violence as a reasonable solution to a problem. If the lead characters in the story are driven to it, its at the extreme end of their experience. – Dean Koontz
I try not to spend too much time on partisan politics. Lifes too short for that. I dont really believe that there have been many human problems solved by politics. – Dean Koontz
Theres this index that tallies up how much your movies have made, and if they havent grossed a certain amount, then youre not bankable. I know Im not Will Smith but, you know, my rankings pretty low. The only studio picture Ive done is Zodiac, and that didnt perform that well. – Chloe Sevigny
I just grew up watching a lot of movies. Im attracted to this genre and that genre, this type of story, and that type of story.
