'Floating Worlds,' which received a fair amount of attention when it was first published, deserves rediscovery.
Commercial film is a film that makes a lot of money, and I have very high hopes from 'Sonchiriya.'
Forget about musical credibility. I think, unless you're Radiohead or whatever, it's pointless striving for that. What I would like is some respect.
'Cabaret' was the most commercial success that I've been involved in.
For the first time in my career, I'm working in a fine-arts arena, so I'm finally getting some intelligent reviews.
My fourth movie, 'PKP2,' is my biggest release and biggest success.
If a film is a huge hit, you do think properly before choosing your next projects.
'Bag of Bones' was a big, distorted yet wonderfully entertaining novel that rode high on the bestseller lists in 1998.
I've just been fortunate to havehad a lot of hit records, though Human Wheels doesn't qualify as a hit record-but it's really the best single I've ever had.
I've had movies bomb with terrible reviews, I've had movies make a lot of money with terrible reviews, I've had movies get good reviews and make money. And I like it best when the movies do well and the reviewers like them.
When you're involved in those big-budget movies, there's a lot of hype: 'Oh this is gonna be a big hit!' And 'A Christmas Story' wasn't. It came and went and was a big disappointment at the box office.
When 'Lost' was over, we expected that there'd be some people who'd really like it and other people who wouldn't. The Emmy nominations are an indication to us that there were a fair number of people who did like the way we concluded our story.
When a film does well, everyone is usually happy and grateful, but for me, the impression the film leaves upon my mind is created during the process of filming; my memories are not a reflection of critics' reviews and box office figures.
Ninety per cent of my movies were hits.
I am sure 'Shakti' will set the screens on fire.
Never in a million years did I think 'Game of Thrones' was going to take off like it did.
In my career, I've never been a box office name. Granted, a couple of my movies have made a lot of money, but I'd do other movies which make very little money, or they're not seen that much.
A Fantastic Woman' has been seen as very interesting and entertaining. The film has had very good reactions. We are very surprised and delighted how the characters have connected with so many people.
Our statement's on the screen. Awards won't make it better, and a lack of awards won't make it worse.
I've appeared three times on 'The Good Wife.' I'm proud of being associated with the show. 'Time' magazine called it 'the best thing on TV outside cable.' Did I mention that I also appear on cable?
Working with Thiagarajan Kumararaja in 'Super Deluxe' was absolutely mind-blowing.
I'm quietly becoming New York's premiere actor. People don't understand. They have me pigeon-holed as a comedian.
Actors don't get to be well-known if they're horrible.
My first film, 'Ishaqzaade,' did well, and I got four damn good films because of it.
If the movie does well, or it doesn't do so well, some movies get great reviews, some movies don't... that's just part of what I do for a living. I just move through all that; that doesn't ever stop me.
