James Schamus quotes
-
“Independent films will probably kill themselves off by virtue of their own success. With a crossover hit like PULP FICTION, the criteria by which art-house movies are produced and marketed and exploited have changed. With studio money and overheads and budgets and deal-making machinery, a certain kind of narrative structure and popcorn-type payoff start infusing themselves.”
-- James Schamus -
“What is a screenplay? 120 pages of begging for money and attention.”
-- James Schamus -
“In Cannes, I try to find somebody's apartment that I can cook at. I always go shopping in the marche and try to make a meal and set up a whole space outside the business. I'll try to go to at least two or three movies that I know there's no way in hell I'll be involved with from a business perspective. You have to indulge your cinephilic needs.”

“Most sex scenes in Hollywood movies are so boring. It's basically a $20 million guy kissing a $7 million woman, and rolling around and semi-humping.”
