Consider Director More Myself Than Writer

American - Actress
Born: May 17, 1984

I always want to challenge myself as a writer. I consider myself more of a writer than I do a director.

Lena Waithe

I consider myself more a European director who is from Iceland than an Icelandic director.

Baltasar Kormakur

I see myself much more as a writer/director or at least an aspiring writer/director - not necessarily in film.

Ricky Gervais

In a weird way, I never wanted - I don't consider myself a very good writer. I consider myself okay; I don't consider myself great. There's Woody Allen and Aaron Sorkin. There's Quentin Tarantino. I'm not ever gonna be on that level. But I do consider myself a good filmmaker.

Sam Esmail

I don't think it's so important to be a movie director. It's a beautiful profession, but no more than to be a cartoon writer. A very rich cartoon writer. I've done a lot of films, and I know deeply that, in all of cinema, there is no director who is as good as Shakespeare.

Jesus Franco

Actually, I don't really consider myself either a Liberal or a Conservative. Truth be told, I consider myself a 'Truthetarian.' I try to examine each separate issue and go to where I feel the truth is. And, yes, I must admit that more often than not, when I do this, upon arrival, I do seem to find myself in the company of left-minded people. However, quite often, I'm more than a little surprised to find myself standing in a room full of right-wingers!

Derek R. Audette

I don't really consider myself a horror director or a violent director at all.

Ryuhei Kitamura

Writer-directors are a little bit more liberal, rather than having just the writer on the set, because I think sometimes the writer becomes too precious with the words. If you're a writer-director, you can see what you're doing and see your work in action, so I think you can correct it right there and still not compromise yourself.

Dennis Farina

I didn't have a burning desire to be a writer or director - writer probably more so, certainly not a director.

Billy Bob Thornton

Usually in features, I'm the lead. I consider the director the captain, but I consider myself the first mate, and it's up to me to keep in contact with the heart of the crew.

Eddie Albert

I don't really consider myself a writer, but I am writing so I guess I'm a writer.

Meital Dohan

I consider myself a writer who writes about American expatriates. And if I have any overt cause as a writer besides writing the best prose I can, it's to try to make Americans have a more visceral feeling about how America impacts everybody in the world.

Bob Shacochis

I like to think I've grown as a writer and taken some risks, but I still consider myself to be a literary writer.

Kim Edwards

I consider myself a writer, foremost - a nonfiction writer.

Mike Cernovich

I kept a lot of my thoughts inside myself. So, perhaps more than is normal, I'm always questioning my role as a writer. I'm always stopping and asking myself: Do I have the right to tell this story? Is it a story that deserves to be heard? And as for whether I think of myself as a Writer with a capital "W," I very much hope I never do.

Lauren Groff

I am more comfortable in the actor's and writer's role than a director's.
