I grew up when I was 15 when I had my first opportunity in movies. I watched every great movie for a year and a half and since then I've asked myself how I can emulate such artistry. That's really my motivation. I want to do something as good as my heroes have done.

When I got depressed I watched Bruce Lee movies. I learned everything from Bruce Lee.

My children have never watched any of my films. Charlie knows that daddy makes movies but he says they are not good enough for him to watch.

All morning they watched for the plane which they thought would be looking for them. They cursed war in general and PTs in particular. At about ten o'clock the hulk heaved a moist sigh and turned turtle.

Well when I was a kid and I watched 'Speed Racer ' I used to always watch it in the morning with my cereal. And when I ate the cereal I would pour soda into the cereal because we never really had milk for some reason I don't know.

I'd always been a news junkie always read lots of newspapers and watched the Sunday morning news shows on TV and felt strongly about issues of power control sexuality and race.

After I read all the medical journals and watched all the documentaries I still didn't understand the physical sensation of ticking and where it comes from and what it feels like.

My father had never watched tennis never liked tennis too much. He said 'OK we buy a racket we watch together ' because we didn't know anything. It was a process of learning together that made it more interesting.

I was a little shocked at how adult some of the humor was because I was never that into animation before and when I watched 'Shrek' I really laughed out loud.

I genuinely liked all of the cast members very much. Steve had a wicked sense of humor. I remember Russell coming to my rescue once. I watched Eric evolve before everyone's eyes. Maurice loved what he did so. He treated his character with respect down to the costuming.

I watched Titanic when I got back home from the hospital and cried. I knew that my IQ had been damaged.

The soles of Neil Armstrong's boots on the moon made permanent impressions on our souls and in our national psyche. Ann and I watched those steps together on her parent's sofa. Like all Americans we went to bed that night knowing we lived in the greatest country in the history of the world. God bless Neil Armstrong.

I watched a lot of silent directors who were absolutely great like John Ford and Fritz Lang Tod Browning and also some very modern directors like The Coen Brothers. The directors take the freedom within their own movies to be melodramatic or funny when they chose to be. They do whatever they want and they don't care about the genre.

I had to act in a school play when I was about ten years old. I really didn't want to do it. But everyone had to do it so I didn't have a choice. A talent agent came and watched it and later gave me some work. It's funny because I'd always known that I wanted a movie career. I just didn't think that I would be in the movies.

The food that enters the mind must be watched as closely as the food that enters the body.

My family went through divorces and remarriages and the later blended home - and then watched that home explode too.

Have you ever watched someone become American? Last week at a national citizenship conference I organize thirty immigrants from 17 countries swore an oath and became citizens of the United States. It was a stirring experience for the hundreds of people in the room.
