There is this idea that your social media platform is the secret to success, but no one has quite proven that to be true, if you ask me. Kevin Bacon Read Quote
Somebody with a billion followers can tweet, ‘See my movie,’ and it can still tank. Followers don’t always translate into success because I think people are too savvy. When something takes off, it’s because people are connecting to it – not because someone with a lot of followers says to care about it. Kevin Bacon Read Quote
The whole industry is changing because so many people watch things on DVR, and they watch things on other platforms, and I think everybody is kind of scratching their heads about how this is going to play out. Kevin Bacon Read Quote
You have to have something in your life that’s more important than the work. People don’t really like to admit that. They say, ‘Oh, my work is my most important thing.’ Kevin Bacon Read Quote
I’m an actor. It’s what I do. It’s what I chose to do with my life when I was a little boy, and that’s what Im still doing. I like to work. I came up with a work ethic, and that’s just what I do. Kevin Bacon Read Quote
To me, the struggle is to try to make a less-well-written or less-well-rounded character and find who they are. If you really get it, and it’s all on the page, then it’s really just gonna pop out at you. Kevin Bacon Read Quote
You can sit around and complain that Hollywood doesn’t make any good movies. But you can generate your own material. So I read books. I come up with ideas. I was the producer on ‘The Woodsman’ to help get that off the ground. Sometimes that extends itself to directing. Kevin Bacon Read Quote
The most challenging work and the best work I’ve ever done was in a thing I did for PBS called ‘Lemon Sky’, a play by Lanford Wilson. I think it’s the rawest, most complex work that I’ve had to do, and the thing I’m most proud of. Kevin Bacon Read Quote
Show me an actor who doesn’t want to be famous, and I’ll show you a liar. Later, you realise that there’s more to it than just the acquisition of fame, and money and girls. But that is what drives them and was what drove me, initially. Kevin Bacon Read Quote
