Sound Bite: Vince Gilligan – Creator/Executive Producer – Breaking Bad
That’s a good question, I mean, as always there’s always marvelous movies being made in any time, when the economy is good or bad, movies are movies and I think they sort of rise above economic conditions, during the 30’s the great depression, movies the entertainment industry kept moving along, people need entertainment and escape, but it is a shame to see the big companies closing down shutting their independent arms that’s a unfortunate thing, but I think movies are movies and the good ones will always get made, by hook or by crook. |

Sound Bite: Bryan Cranston – Actor
I don’t think I’ve noticed any difference, of course the films that we’re celebrating today were made a year or two ago, when there wasn’t such an economic downturn, but still it’s always been a problem for independent producers to find financing, it always been strange bedfellows to get the financiers of the world to see the vision and actually then put up the movie for these people to make great films, and it’s very difficult because most films that are independently made, wont see the light of day and they wont make there money back anywhere near it, the ones that are shown today will make there money back, that’s probably the best they can insure, some of them will actually make money, so it’s not an endeavor that you go into thinking, you’re going to get rich, it really isn’t. |

Sound Bite: Bryan Cranston – Actor
Um, I had to take a woman’s foot half way into my mouth, I was a guy with a foot fetish, I was sucking on toes and at one point I just put the her whole foot, my mouth, it was half way down my throat, this foot, and at the time I was trying not to gag, in retrospect it was funny, because you see this man with, (?) huh? There’s foot, ****but the actress was very kind, Alexandra Boyd is her name very kind, very talented and she washed thoroughly and I appreciate that. |

Sound Bite: Andie MacDowell – Actress
I think I’ve notice something about everything in this economic downward, whatever, but everything is going to be different for awhile, but I just, my, I’m a glass half full kind of person, I think it can stimulate new energy |

Sound Bite: Andie MacDowell – Actress
Well I don’t know about the strangest thing, but I just did a movie called “As Good as Dead” where I have a scare on my face all the way down and all the way down the front and it’s a really, really dark movie, so that was probably the strangest experience, poorest, we struggle some of the scenes we did in one take with no time and no money, so maybe that would be it. |

Sound Bite: Kathryn Bigelow - Director
Well I think making an independent film first and foremost is always a challenge and if it gets more challenging it perhaps it’s kind of a crucible that will only strengthen the nature of the work, so, I’m an optimist, it’s my nature, you have to be to be a filmmaker, the odds are too great. |

Sound Bite: Tom Noonan – Actor
I was in a scene once where it was a sex scene which I almost never do, who could imagine that in the middle of the scene, the director yelled “Cum”, why are you laughing? OC: I didn’t know somebody could direct that. Tom: I guess they thought they could, and I was like. |

In a independent film, probably “Do The Right Thing” where Spike put ice cubes on my nipples, I think that topped it and ended all the weirdness, nothing has topped that since, I thank God that nothing has. |

Sound Bite: Sir Ben Kingsley – Actor
Well it’s a little bit early to tell, because many films were planned two year or 18 months ago before things took a down turn, I think that we will find value of story telling is crucial now, the value of getting back to our mythology, or our heroes and heroines considered to be great, our definitions of good and evil, of love and life and death are all beautifully defined on the Cinema screen, it’s a very crucial time for Cinema, not to sell the audience short, but really look after our audience’s and really give them beautiful films, because everyone is struggling, we are all struggling right now. |

Sound Bite: Sir Ben Kingsley – Actor
I think one of the saddest thing’s that happened to me in my independent film career was when a director opened the door of his hotel room to me and I looked to him and I thought, I should not work with this man and I did. |

The strangest thing I had to do was I had to masturbate in public for Jeffrey Dahlmar, that was, watching like kids play soccer, that was the strangest, they were playing rugby, sorry, kids playing rugby and I was like, you really want me to what? Am like really! It didn’t even make it in the movie, I think, probably a good thing I guess, yeah that was the weirdest thing I had to do. |

Sound Bite: Giovanni Ribisi – Actor
Um, yes there is definitely, I think it’s more or less, for me, seeing a lot of fear in the mentality or the approach as opposed to being bold and what people are doing, sort of universally but in film making, um I don’t know, I don’t think, if there is any sort of slow right now, I think its more of less due to what’s going with this ridiculous SAG strike and, and, and that contention between them, which I don’t think is healthy and I think that has a lot more to do with than the economy. |
