Tommy Lee Jones

I have worked on very good movies that have been buried, and I've worked on some resounding mediocrities that have been paraded through the marketplace like they were masterpieces.

I don't think I would describe my sense of humor. Doesn't sound like the kind of thing I'd do.

I want to photograph what I see and put it in a dramatic context. I'm an actor and a writer, and I want to tell these stories and present these shapes, colors and movements as I see them, as I see...

I've made some bad movies. And I really enjoyed it!

I don't get it. If you're saying, Tommy Lee, you don't fit the image of the East Coast, social elitist wealthy people who comprise Harvard, the only thing I can say is you have no idea what comprises...

I've never really known what glamour is.

If you want to know about my politics, the only way to do that is to look at my work.

I enjoy acting more and more than when I was 17.

I love cinema.

I have nothing against interviews. I don't pursue them. When people I work for deem it appropriate, I'm perfectly willing to serve.
