Ari Aster
American - Director

I'm not trying to prove myself a great filmmaker. I don't know much about filmmaking anyway. I'm trying my hand at it to see if I'm any good.

Naseeruddin Shah

For me writing and filmmaking is a therapeutic process. It reflects themes that I'm going through at a time in my life.

Mark Webber

I do find it therapeutic, writing about stuff that was frightening and painful as a child, and managing to see it from an adult's point of view. To get it out of the closet onto paper, metaphorically speaking, is therapeutic.

Julie Walters

Every time that I hear the orchestra tuning up, I get chills all over my body. You know, catharsis after catharsis. It's better than sex!

Rosie O'Donnell

Filmmaking in general is about feeling and not about theory. You need to know a lot of rules about filmmaking: character development, grammar, and all these thing, but then you use it instinctively. I ask myself this question all the time. I have no solid theory, I just do what I feel is right.

Hany Abu-Assad

I think filmmaking is a gamble anyway, right? You never know the results from the start.

Daniel Wu

I'm very influenced by documentary filmmaking and independent filmmaking, by a lot of noir and films from the '40s. Those are my favorite. And then, filmmaking from the '70s is a big influence for me.

Pamela Adlon

I was always writing music anyway. I just sort of fell into it. Writing for me is a therapeutic process.

Lisa Marie Presley

Filmmaking is about moments. In real life, things might take six months, a year, but [in filmmaking] you have to create the moment where it happened.

Morten Tyldum

It's difficult to define catharsis. But I think that only those who acknowledge and respond to unseen worlds and energies can harness the power of those sources. The catharsis I experienced with my whole body during gut is reflected in my work.

Hyon Gyon

I started with digital filmmaking. I've pretty much only done digital filmmaking.

Ruben Fleischer

I think, in general, I find writing to be very therapeutic and singing in itself to be really therapeutic.

Sharon Van Etten

I've picked up so much about the technical aspects of filmmaking and television.

Benedict Samuel

I've learned a great deal about a certain type of filmmaking. But I have ambitions toward another type of filmmaking that I haven't been allowed to engage in yet.

Shia LaBeouf

You read so much about the healing power of memoir, but you don't read about the wounding power it has first. The recollection of past events is not, in and of itself, therapeutic.

Janice Erlbaum

In a world where irony reigns, where you have to separate, protect and laugh at anything that is honest or has an emotional charge, I bet for catharsis. I like to invest emotionally in things. And catharsis, when it touches the emotional vein, can open the doors of even those who protect themselves.

Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu
