Tony Scott

“I'm very visually driven. I see the world in pictures.”

“What I do is I try to be as clever as I can be, and you know, I do my best to be a storyteller.”

“The biggest edge I live on is directing. That's the most scary, dangerous thing you can do in your life.”

“I always get carried away when I'm making a picture. I get over-excited.”

“I'm a rock-and-roll director, but I'm also a storyteller.”

“My style is a little bit different than my brother's. He's a little more classical and I'm a little more rock-and-roll.”

“I believe that you've got to love your work. You've got to be passionate about it.”

“I love research. I'm a massive geek.”

“Filmmaking is a battle.”

“I am a commercial director, and I'm not ashamed of it.”

“Action is character.”

“I'm interested in the dark side of characters.”

“I don't see the world in sexual divisions.”

“I'm always pushing the envelope in terms of what you can do.”
