Robert Forster Quotes
[talking about luck in the movie business]: "I'm not sure how a guy wins or loses in this business, but somebody's got to come along and make you lucky.You can't do it yourself."
[talking about his character in Jackie Brown]: "This is the great noir hero.If Humphrey Bogart or Robert Mitchum were around today, they'd be playing that role."
[talking about the rules to succeed in Hollywood]: "Step No. 1 is you've got to have a good attitude, Step No. 2 is accept all things, deliver excellence to whatever is offered, give it your best shot. And rule No. 3 is never quit. It's not over till it's over."
[talking about Quentin Tarantino and his relashionship with the cast]:"This guy is very smart, and he's great to his actors. He wants them to be great. He keeps the stuff fresh. When he gave me the script he knew I hadn't had a big part like this in twenty-five years and he said, "Here, read this, and don't put any pressure on yourself. Just prepare the way you normally prepare." And I said, "Oh, what a liberating thing." This guy is totally secure. He doesn't seem to be worried about anything. He's as good a guy as I have ever worked with. He screened movies once a week for his crew. One of them was American Perfekt, a recent indie film I did.The last week of production he threatened to screen it for the crew and I said to him, "Listen, there's a tiny bit of 'adult content' in this, so I don't want to hear any catcalls. I don't know if it this is the right thing to screen." He got on the walkie-talkie and said "Hey, anybody who wants to see Forster naked come on in!"
[talking about his comeback and the comparison with John Travolta's career turn in Pulp Fiction]:"If I get ten percent of John Travolta's bounce, I will be thrilled."
[when asked about the reason why Tarantino likes to revive the careers of actors who the show business have written off]: "He grew fond of people. He told me that he loved Pam Grier when he was a kid and I guess he saw Alligator and The Banker all those pictures that I worked on during those years and apparently he said, 'I like this guy and one of these days I'm going to use him.'"
