There are only so many movies you can direct. And yet there are movies that I want to make sure make it to the screen in as honest a way as possible. – Jason Reitman
Im not going to have a perfect career. Its better to be Billy Wilder and make lots of movies and have five or six great ones than to make so few movies that when you make a bad one it crushes you. – Jason Reitman
I hate movies that tell people what to think. Im proud that Democrats thought Thank You For Smoking was their film and Republicans thought it was theirs. Im proud that pro-choice people thought Juno was their film and pro-life people thought it was theirs. – Jason Reitman
I want my movies to be audience experiences. As much as I like Michael Haneke, Im not going to make a Haneke film. Thats just not in my DNA. – Jason Reitman
