the man with the chin

Film is the only media where you can cut off a breast, but you can’t kiss it.

Happy Birthday, Bruce Lorne Campbell (BTD June 22nd, 1958)

 If you go to Hollywood, you’ve already sold out. By the sheer act of going there, you’re saying, ‘I need to go there because this is the only way I can get my movie made.’ Baloney! Indiana’s the place to make your movie. Pontiac, Michigan. Whatever. Then you’re just making it on the merits of the movie. You don’t have to have any discussions about what’s hip now. Who can we get to do the soundtrack? You can actually put a score to your movie instead of a soundtrack. I get this thing all the time. Filmmakers go, ‘Can I send you a script? You’ll read it and attach yourself and we’ll package it.’ Why can’t you get the money based on nothing, just the script? This whole packaging thing is out of control. Then you get absurd casting because it’s all packaged by the same talent agency. The sensibility is so bizarre.”

Happy 58th Birthday, Bruce Lorne Campbell (06.22.58)
