More From Klaus Kinski

With a director it's all about the work; i'd work with a great director over - you know, i'm not the kind of actor who that doesn't go, 'i want to play this role.' it's more like, 'i want to work with this director,' regardless of what the role is because if it's a good director, you'll probably find a good role because it's a decent film. but a mediocre director will always make a mediocre movie.
Kind Film Mediocre
Independent means one thing to me: it means that regardless of the source of financing, the director's voice is extremely present. it's such a pretentious term, but it's auteurist cinema. director-driven, personal, auteurist... whatever word you want. it's where you feel the director, not a machine, at work. it doesn't matter where the money comes from. it matters how much freedom the director has to work with his or her team. that's how i personally define independent movies.

There's no such thing as advice to the lovelorn. if they took advice, they wouldn't be lovelorn. you see, advice and lovelorn don't go together. because advice makes love sound like some sort of cognitive activity, but we know that it isn't. we all know that it's some sort of horrible chemical reaction over which we have absolutely no control. and that's why advice doesn't work.

There are as many forms of advice as there are colors of the rainbow. remember that good advice can come from bad people and bad advice from good people. the important thing about advice is that it is simply that. advice.

You can say something that can really help and actor and you can say something that can really get in the way of an actor's performance, kind of cut them off from their instincts and really get into their heads. and every actor's different. every actor requires something different. being an actor, for me, was the greatest training to be a writer and director.
Cutting Training Actors
I'm very old-school. i like a director to direct me. i like to be the actor. i'm not particularly fond of the hybrid writer-director, or actor-director. writers, directors, actors are all such very different people. i think it's unusual that two of those people are in one human.

I often think that the reason capitalism hasn't completely destroyed everything is that a huge amount of anti-capitalist endeavor goes on, from labors of love, nurture, friendship, and barter to gift economies and different kinds of exchanges, not just one alternate model but a whole host of other ways in which we engage with each other and with the world that aren't financial and debt-based.

When the time comes for your brain to process the information, the second word comes up faster than the first one. so when it's in your head, all of a sudden, it comes out backwards and you think of the word backwards.

I mean, when i think about it, what's more important? clothes - or the miracle of new life?
Mean Thinking Clothes
Granny bit her lip. she was never quite certain about children, thinking of them-when she thought about them at all-as coming somewhere between animals and people. she understood babies. you put milk in one end and kept the other as clean as possible. adults were even easier, because they did the feeding and cleaning themselves. but in between was a world of experience that she had never really inquired about. as far as she was aware, you just tried to stop them catching anything fatal and hoped that it would all turn out all right.
