Some Bruce Beresford's quotes. Goto "Bruce Beresford's quotation" section for more.Tender Mercies is a very low-budget film, but it was a huge budget compared to anything I had done in Australia. My fee for Tender Mercies was something like five times all of my Australian films combined.
Tags: Done, Film, TimesThere were movies that always made me want to be a director. You see brilliant scenes and the way the emotions were handled. I thought, I'd really like to do that.
Tags: Emotions, Movies, ThoughtWhen we were trying to get the money for Driving Miss Daisy, everyone kept saying no one could direct it well enough to entertain an audience for 100 minutes essentially watching three people chatting in the kitchen.
Tags: Money, Saying, TryingIt is essential to do everything possible to attract young people to opera so they can see that it is not some antiquated art form but a repository of the most glorious music and drama that man has created.

Tags: Dialogue, Director, ScenesI didn't get upset because I wasn't nominated, but I was a little surprised.
Tags: Nominated, Surprised, UpsetI'd really been interested in opera when I was about 16, and I really like staging them.
Tags: Interested, Opera, StagingIn my view, the operas of Carlisle Floyd will find a place in the permanent repertoire.
Tags: Permanent, Place, ViewOn stage, the audience watches from a fixed viewpoint and the director cannot retake something he doesn't like. It has to work straight through.
Tags: Cannot, Stage, WorkPerhaps the most difficult thing is shooting scenes set 6,000 feet up in the mountains of Mexico.
Tags: Difficult, Feet, PerhapsThe music of the most popular operas is so highly esteemed, it can stand endless revivals.
