David Strathairn Quotes

«After a little while, I forgot I was watching black and white film. There's something luscious about all the gradations of gray that adds so much texture to film. It's good they didn't shoot this one in color; they would have lost all those subtleties, all those layers.»

«[During shooting,] I can remember two or three times when George would say, 'Just do it a little bit faster,' ... It was this invisible direction, the kind that tells you what you're doing is okay and, if not, he knows what he wants. You knew he was whittling and honing and crafting the scene as we were in it. Like Fred Friendly, he was managing the room.»
«In this television moment, which is where his public presence mushroomed out from radio, there were images that were iconic,»
«It's really a presentation of life, as it was at that moment, in a really artistic way. Everything was double-sourced. George was determined to do this as a journalist.»
