Do we have good writers, producers and actors in the U.K.? Yes we do.

Actors are good liars; writers are good liars with good memories.

Every writer is a frustrated actor who recites his lines in the hidden auditorium of his skull.

If there's a British film in the marketplace that is successful on a worldwide basis - whether it's 'A Room with a View,' 'Four Weddings' or 'The Full Monty' - money follows, and everyone tries to emulate that success.

Making movies is like herding cats.

Technical problems are like gremlins. They come and go.
