“The whole thing of doing a TV series, I find it very daunting not knowing where the story's going.”

“Everything starts with what's on the page, what a writer has come up with. And whether it is a big studio film or independent film, is the story being well told? Is it interesting? Is the character interesting? And is there something about the character that may stretch me?”
Joan Allen

“Whenever you're telling a story about true-life events and about real people, there's a tremendous responsibility-slash-burden to get it right.”
Tom McCarthy

“Movies are just a comforting fairy-tale compared to the real deal. Bram Stoker, he wrote a good yarn. But the events that he described back in 1897, God, that was just a tiny piece of the mosaic.”
Ryan Reynolds - Hannibal King

“That script of yours has all the right elements. I mean it's got good characters and a terrific story. I don't know if you agree with me but I think story is the most important element of a script.”
Martin Landau - Jack Roth
