Terry Rossio Quotes

• La mayoría de los aspirantes a guionistas no dedican suficiente tiempo a elegir su concepto. Es, con mucho, el error más común que veo en los guiones especulativos. El guionista ha perdido la carrera desde el principio. Se pierden meses, a veces años, intentando elevar una idea cinematográfica que, por su naturaleza, probablemente no tenga ninguna esperanza de convertirse en película.

• Human beings are compelled to adopt a belief system; some paradigm to provide meaning, purpose, and understanding to our lives. A quick survey of the world shows that pretty much any idea will do - it need not reflect reality or truth, merely function to fascinate, distract, and compel. We are designed for belief, not for truth.

• I'm tempted to say, 'Writing treatments is like designing a film by hiring six million monkeys to tear out pages of an encyclopedia, then you put the pages through a paper-shredder, randomly grab whatever intact lines are left, sing them in Italian to a Spanish deaf-mute, and then make story decisions with the guy via conference call.' But no... compared to writing treatments, that makes sense, too.

• En Hollywood, el contenido de las historias de las películas sigue una jerarquía de poder, no la calidad relativa de las distintas ideas. A Hollywood no le falta calidad en la escritura. Lo que ocurre es que a menudo hay que sacrificar la calidad de la escritura para impulsar la producción de una película. Un estudio necesita una estrella y un director para hacer una película, así que son ellos los que definen el contenido. Si no tienen la misma sensibilidad creativa, el contenido cambiará.
