“It's the most unrealistic thing you can do to shoot a close-up, and it...” — Robert Zemeckis Quote

“It's the most unrealistic thing you can do to shoot a close-up, and it's the most unrealistic place you can be as a performer. And yet actors grouse about having to do visual effect shots, but they love doing close-ups.”

“I could never be like Hitchcock and do only one kind of movie. Anything that's good is worthwhile.”

“I'm addicted to documentaries. That's all I watch on television.”

“You have to learn to express differently. Whenever I do TV or film, I ask if I can see the shot to see, to see if it's full body or a close-up. That helps me understand how to communicate.”

“Most of the telly I do only has one camera and the reason you have to cook it twice is you have a close-up, so you see what is happening really close up and then you have a wide shot, which is like standing back so you see the whole fish and the kitchen and, like it or not, you have to do it twice.”

“My close-up was magnificent!”
