A Quote by Daniel Day-Lewis

I'm not sure you learn anything on film sets. — © Daniel Day-Lewis
I'm not sure you learn anything on film sets.
I applied [to film school] figuring, "I need to find some structure for myself. I need to find a way to figure out what kind of filmmaker I want to be." And that is what film school provides you with. It'll teach you the basics of how a production works and the technical side of how to put everything together, but you could also learn that by working on film sets.
I would like to do more film scoring, period. Whether it is a big film, a small film, or just anything. I feel like I have a lot to learn, and what better way to do it than on the job?
No one set that I ever do is the same. I mean, if I go to a comedy club, and I perform three sets, all three sets are different because anything can happen in between sets.
Most of my life, I've been on a film set. There isn't anything to learn, not learn, unlearn. It's just in me.
I would accompany my dad to his film's sets. I especially remember going with him on the sets of 'Vijaypath.'
When I'm making a film, I don't want my producer to be on the sets. So when I'm producing a film, I don't want to be on the sets!
Film sets are a strange place, but an exciting place. I do love my work; I really enjoy going to work. But if you just spend all your time on film sets or even on stage, you can become a Michael Jackson figure, living in your own little universe.
What you learn when you direct a film, even more so than as a producer, it's a marriage. It's like a relationship with that film so you've got to make sure that it's really something that you want to live with for three years or however long it is. So I haven't found the right thing to marry yet.
O be very sure That no man will learn anything at all, Unless he first will learn humility.
I think on both sides of the pond, there are pros and cons to TV and film, and I think that there are things the British people can learn from the Americans and things the Americans can probably learn from us when it comes to the acting industry. But the main thing here in the USA is everything is just a hell of a lot bigger. The sets are bigger, the casts are bigger, the crews are bigger.
I was spending a lot of time in trailers, you know, on film sets surrounded by film people.
When we make a comedy film, its important to have a light atmosphere on the sets so that the mood reflects in the film.
As a general rule, people who flagrantly pretend to anything are the reverse of that which they pretend to. A man who sets up for a saint is sure to be a sinner; and a man who boasts that he is a sinner is sure to have some feeble, maudlin, snivelling bit of saintship about him which is enough to make him a humbug.
I love being on film sets even if I'm not acting in the film, and I'm fascinated by the work of the director of photography.
My brother knows more about film sets than I do, because he works at New York Film Academy.
I have kissed in almost all the films except in 'Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai.' I'm not sure if my kissing on screen has anything to do with the success of a film, but producers make sure to put a kissing scene or two. They feel my kissing scenes are my lucky streak.
