Udo Kier Quotes

Udo Kier Quotes:

The interesting part about ‘Iron Sky’ was crowdfunding. It was financed in a very special new way. Timo Vuorensola is an amazing, concentrated person who was able to make this comedy. When I saw the film for the first time, I liked it very much.

Lars von Trier, Wim Wenders, Werner Herzog: They all write, which is much better because it’s their baby, and they know what they want.

Udo Kier

My dream would be to play the villain in a James Bond movie, or opposite Arnold Schwarzenegger. I like everything exaggerated.

Udo Kier

I don’t like to work with directors who have taken an adoption from another script writer, because it’s too much: one of them writes it and then has to explain it to the other, or maybe the director sees it in a way the writer doesn’t want it.

Udo Kier

I like ‘Brawl in Cell Block 99.’ I think Vince Vaughn is incredible and I’ve never seen Don Johnson like that. It is very realistic. Some people say it is a horror film. It is not a horror film at all. It is very realistic.

Udo Kier

Artistically I like to do short-term things. Like I do a lot of commercials, I have the Miller commercial out where I play the Devil in Hell, where Hell is frozen.

I have a lot of palm trees, because they say to me holidays and ocean. I grew up very poor and I had an aunt who would go on holiday and send me postcards of palm trees and I would pin them to the wall, so I’ve gone from that fantasy to reality.

Udo Kier

Anybody can act.

Udo Kier

The first day of shooting came, and of course I was nervous. I would lie if I said I wasn’t impressed. I mean, Lars von Trier hiring me to be the king in ‘Medea’… Lars said, ‘Stop! Stop!’ And I was so nervous, I turned around and said, ‘What is it?’ He said, ‘… Just be a tired king.’

Udo Kier

I was brought up in Germany, born in 1944, and there was nothing to eat.

Udo Kier

I made films, like ‘Shadow of the Vampire,’ and I did not like the work I did on it and then Willem Dafoe was nominated for the Oscar. I made films like ‘The Adventures of Pinocchio’ with Martin Landau. I thought I would get nominated and it flopped. You never know.

Udo Kier

My great joy these days is giving palm trees water. Simple as that.

Udo Kier

I mean, if you are director like Lars Von Trier who is able to get actors on a table like Lauren Bacall, Ben Gazzara, James Caan, Nicole Kidman, Chloe Sevigny, Stellan Skarsgard, Udo Kier, all in the self-service situation in the same room, the same trailer, no money, then you must have something that everybody accepts.

Udo Kier

I like to have the newest thing. I like the Internet, they know more about me than I do, which is amazing.

Udo Kier

I’ve been in over a hundred films so I know what producers are like.

Udo Kier

Sometimes I get a script that says, ‘Only you can play it.’ But I like roles in films with little moments – a hand movement in ‘Melancholia.’ I don’t like the big speeches – the ‘Oscar speech.’ I like to do unusual things on screen.

Udo Kier

The best compliment for a director is that an audience hates their films.

Udo Kier

I have few friends. I can count them on one hand. I go by myself to the cleaners and the supermarket and I live alone with my dogs.

Udo Kier

I don’t mind playing Nazis, but I’ll only play them in comedies. I wouldn’t play a serious Nazi.

Udo Kier

I bought a former library, not because I have a lot of books, but also I like architecture, and it was built in 1965, and I like gardening.

Udo Kier

I like special directors, and I’ve collected a few.

Udo Kier

I’m an aesthetic person who loves beauty.

Udo Kier

I have no time for real horses, so I have a plastic horse. Large size. Called Max Von Sydow. For photographs it looks real. If I do a photo shoot and it stands in the background, you think it’s a horse. A horse is a horse.

Udo Kier

Working with someone like Fassbinder was a 24-hour job. You had to be part of the family, and play his games.

Udo Kier

I like Palm Springs because of the sunshine. It’s a little city surrounded by mountains.

Udo Kier

I like to work with directors where you feel they make the movies not for the audience, but make them for themselves. They don’t care if it’s a success financially. That’s what I like.
