The top 10 most inspiring quotes by Frank Darabont
- A director shouldn’t get in the way of the movie, the story should.
- Visual storytelling of one kind or another has been around since cavemen were drawing on the walls.
- If you’re going to succeed, you’ve got to be like one of those punch-drunk fighters in the old Warner Bros. boxing pictures: too stupid to fall down, you just keep slugging and stay on your feet.
- I think a story should take as long to tell as it is appropriate to that particular story.
- The amazing thing about any movie is not whether it’s good, but that it got made at all.
- The human race is fundamentally insane. If you put two of us into a room together we’re soon gonna start figuring out good reasons to kill one another.
- I’m still learning. It’s all a learning curve. Every time you sit down, with any given episode of any given show, it is a learning curve. You’re learning something new about how to tell a story. But then, I’ve felt that way about everything I’ve ever done – television, features or whatever. Directing or writing, it always feels like the first day of school to me.
- I just tell you what a pleasure it is to get back to the kind of filmmaking I used to be allowed to do.
- Some of us have great original ideas and some of us depend on adaptations.
- One of my favorite movies of all time is ‘It’s A Wonderful Life’, which is a pretty interesting choice for a seasonal Christmas favorite, because it’s about a guy who wants to commit suicide and is presented with reasons not to.
