 Sydney Pollack Quotation(Says his favorite part of filmmaking process is:) Editing, because I'm alone and there isn't the necessity of having to organize so many people. Editing feels almost like sculpting or a form of continuing the writing process. "I don't value a film I've enjoyed making. If it's good, it's damned hard work." Movie Title: Tootsie (1982) as George Fields: Michael Dorsey : Are you saying that nobody in New York will work with me? George Fields : No, no, that's too limited... nobody in Hollywood wants to work with you either. I can't even send you up for a commercial. You played a *tomato* for 30 seconds -- they went a half a day over schedule because you wouldn't sit down. Michael Dorsey : Yes -- it wasn't logical. George Fields : YOU WERE A TOMATO. A tomato doesn't have logic. A tomato can't move. Michael Dorsey : That's what I said. So if he can't move, how's he gonna sit down, George? I was a stand-up tomato: a juicy, sexy, beefsteak tomato. Nobody does vegetables like me. I did an evening of vegetables off-Broadway. I did the best tomato, the best cucumber... I did an endive salad that knocked the critics on their ass. Michael Dorsey : You should have seen the look on her face when she thought I was a lesbian. George Fields : "Lesbian"? You just said gay. Michael Dorsey : No, no, no -- SANDY thinks I'm gay, JULIE thinks I'm a lesbian. George Fields : I thought Dorothy was supposed to be straight? Michael Dorsey : Dorothy IS straight. Tonight Les, the sweetest, nicest man in the world asked me to marry him. George Fields : A guy named Les wants YOU to marry him? Michael Dorsey : No, no, no -- he wants to marry Dorothy. George Fields : Does he know she's a lesbian? Michael Dorsey : Dorothy's NOT a lesbian. George Fields : I know that, does HE know that? Michael Dorsey : Know WHAT? George Fields : That, er, I... I don't know. George Fields : You're too much trouble. Get some therapy. Movie Title: Changing Lanes (2002) as Stephen Delano: Stephen Delano : This is all a tightrope, you gotta learn to balance. Gavin Banek : How can you live like that ? Stephen Delano : I can live with myself... because at the end of the day I think I do more good than harm... what other standard have I got to judge by ? Gavin Banek : I was thinking about what you said to me. About the end of the day - about doing more good than harm. That is what you said, isn't it? Stephen Delano : Don't you fuck with me. Gavin Banek : I am not fucking with you, sir. Can you imagine how unpleasant it would be if the judge got a hold of this file? Movie Title: Death Becomes Her (1992) as Emergency Room Doctor: Emergency Room Doctor : I tell you what, kids, it's, uh, odd thing here. Your wrist, uh, far as I can tell, is, uh, fractured in three places. Uh, and you've shattered, uh, two vertebrae, though I can't be certain without an X-ray... The bone protrusion through the skin -- that's not a good sign. You're body temperature is below 80, and your, your, your heart's stopped beating. Ernest Menville : What the hell does that mean? Emergency Room Doctor : Exactly! What... what... I'm going to get a second opinion. [The doctor leaves in a hurry] Madeline Ashton : Well, it could be worse. |
