Peking Quotes


(On inspirational actors) "Certain actors performance even in bad films can be incredible, and inspiring. Some of my favorite actors weren`t very well noticed in their careers: John Malone was a great actor, he came from the Peking Theatre. And Chow Yun Fat, John Woo is a great guy and an inspiring person. Along the way there are moments from all kinds of movies, if I find 5 minutes in any film worth watching it is worth watching the film. I love finding that gem of a performance. There are so many actors who are so talented. The one best thing on Millennium was meeting new actors every week. I always tried to make them feel welcome."
