My father, who was the one who really got me hooked on movies, liked all kinds of films, and I saw all kinds of films at a very young age.

The brief flashbacks are sun-...

The brief flashbacks are sun-kissed, summery and optimistic. It's the only place in the movie you will see red, yellow, orange, or any vibrant colors.

Steven Soderbergh 148 quotes

You're being mean to someone ...

You're being mean to someone who's helping you. What is that? Everyone knows who the assholes are, and I avoid them.

Jude [Law] is really good at ...

Jude [Law] is really good at playing an obsessive. He has a very watchable quality when he's on a quest for something.

I was lucky that I was gettin...

I was lucky that I was getting exposed to a lot of different kinds of films, and I was liking them all. So it seemed logical to me that you could - as in the style of the studio directors of the 30s and 40s - jump from one genre to the next, with the same satisfaction.

I come from a generation that...

I come from a generation that was surrounded by popular music, but I don't know if anybody's ever going to move the ball forward as far and as fast as the Beatles did.

If you're not flying people a...

If you're not flying people around on wires, and you're only allowing them to do things that people can really do, it can't go on for very long, because eventually somebody gets the drop on the other person and then it's over.

There's a big difference betw...

There's a big difference between a movie about relationships and a movie in which people talk about relationships. It seems like a lot of people have confused the two.

Steven Soderbergh 148 quotes

I've found through experience...

I've found through experience that I'm only good when I'm writing something that, in essence, only I could write. The times I've written for hire, for other people, I don't think I've done very well.

If you're a painter and you w...

If you're a painter and you want people to know who you are and recognize your work, you've got to build some long-term value.

It's a weird thing to say, bu...

It's a weird thing to say, but it would appear to me axiomatic that if you understood fully what I was doing and appreciated it, you would like it.

Steven Soderbergh 148 quotes

We all get outraged by things...

We all get outraged by things and there are things that make us angry and maybe for a while we get angry enough to actually go do something about it.

Steven Soderbergh 148 quotes

What's great about things lik...

What's great about things like Kickstarter is that it enables me, finally, and without any bad feeling at all, when people come up to me now saying, "I want to do this." I can just go, "There are no excuses anymore."

Steven Soderbergh 148 quotes

If you think that because you...

If you think that because you're Che, when you go into Bolivia, when people find out it's you, that they're going to have the same kind of reaction that the Cubans had to Castro, then you're high.

Steven Soderbergh 148 quotes

Everything had been done long...

Everything had been done long before I started making movies. I mean, there's nothing that Godard hasn't already done. You can't do a single thing that Godard hasn't already thought of. And so you struggle to do something that is not predictable.

Steven Soderbergh 148 quotes

American movie audiences now ...

American movie audiences now just don’t seem to be very interested in any kind of ambiguity or any kind of real complexity of character or narrative - I’m talking in large numbers, there are always some, but enough to make hits out of movies that have those qualities. I think those qualities are now being seen on television and that people who want to see stories that have those kinds of qualities are watching television.

Steven Soderbergh 148 quotes

Every time you make something...

Every time you make something that somebody likes, your impulse is to remind them that if you hadn't made some of these other things that they hated, you wouldn't have been able to make the thing that they liked.

Steven Soderbergh 148 quotes

People like Chris Nolan are shooting isolated sequences in IMAX. Those cameras are the size of a Volkswagen.

Steven Soderbergh 148 quotes

I'm not precious about anythi...

I'm not precious about anything. The effort it took to get something means nothing to me in post. It means nothing to the audience. I'll chop limbs off. I'll put an arm where a leg should be. I'll do anything.

Steven Soderbergh 148 quotes

When I look around the world ...

When I look around the world and think why is everything working or not working, it's because it's entrenched ideology. You can't solve a problem if you're sitting down with people who say, "All these ideas are off the table because of what I believe."
