I've been simultaneously drawn to and repelled from Hollywood for years.
Hollywood is a sewer with service from the Ritz Carlton.
Musical chairs or Russian roulette? Sometimes there's as much tense drama in the casting of a Hollywood movie as there is in the finished product.
I had worked for ten years in theater; I had worked at Second City in Chicago. Then I got to Hollywood, and I was like, naively, 'Where's my pilot?'
And one thing Hollywood does well is sequels.
Well, there's different shades of Hollywood, sure. I mean, I'm working in this business but I'm not Hollywood.
Hollywood is great. I also think it's stupid and small-minded and shortsighted.
It is customary for the writer to sneer that Hollywood has traduced their book. Well, I adore my film.
Women in Hollywood are tiny, but women in soap operas are the tiniest people alive!
I'm aware that I don't look like the traditional or the stereotypical type of Hollywood starlet and that is OK with me.
I don't consider myself a starlet or a Hollywood person.
As long as it is supported by Democratic politicians and by liberal Hollywood players, censorship is a useful tool to stifle dissent.
The strange thing is that since I've been offered lots of films I think that maybe they think that I've sold out to Hollywood. Which is not the case if anybody's listening.
In Hollywood, the system is so streamlined, the administration is in place. That's why every six months Spielberg is able to make a film.
The Hollywood Film Awards were really stressful. It was the biggest press line I'd ever seen.
You can have ambiguity in television that you are not allowed in film... at least in Hollywood studio films.
During the Hollywood studio system, they looked for people who were unusual. The stars had peculiarities.
I didn't come to Hollywood to be subservient to anyone else's vision.
Hollywood has a way of sucking the world's talent to it.
When I was a kid, I used to watch all those Sunday afternoon matinees featuring all the Hollywood greats.
