The only pitch I have to movie people is the same as this one: Just give me $8 million. I'm not telling you what it's about and I'm not telling you who's in it.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
You can have 10 bucks to 10 million bucks and if you got a crew, imagination and a lot of people willing to turn in some work next to nothing, you going to have a feature. But you can't get beyond how expensive marketing the movie is, it's so crushing.
A film like 'Good Night And Good Luck,' you make that for $7 million because you know it's a black-and-white film, and it's not an easy sell. If you make it for $7 million, then everybody can have a chance to make a little bit of money, and you get to make the film you want to make.
It is not like casting me in your movie is going to help you get financing.
What do you spend $200 million on, with a film? I can't wrap my brain around that one.
Don't give me any money, don't give me any people, but give freedom, and I'll give you a movie that looks gigantic.
I've got to love the film, not the money. Because I know what it's like not to have money - you still survive.
Thank God for small movies and filmmakers who can make movies for not $8 million. Thank God for $8,000 movies.
If you've got a huge Hollywood star in your film, they're getting $32 million, and everyone else gets their bus fare.
I don't have to pitch movies. I'm no good at it!
Believe me, when people say, 'We want to pay you X-million to do this movie,' I won't be the girl who hangs back saying, 'Oh, I really don't deserve it,' I'll be, 'Un-hunh, hand it right over.'
