We had private meetings with members of the Stauffenberg family. On the other side, we met with Hitler's former bodyguard, who, I believe, was the last person to leave the bunker where Hitler committed suicide. These meetings were done specifically to bring new perspectives and ideas to the material. They were very informative, and sometimes transformational in terms of what we learned–Bryan Singer

With “Defiance,” I wanted to create a rich and exciting entertainment but I also felt an obligation to keep faith with those to whom it happened. It¬ís not only a thrilling story, but also one that prompts many questions, provoking audiences to think about what they would have done in that time, and also to understand how it relates to our world today. Unfortunately, in such modern circumstances as Bosnia or Darfur, we are still witnessing the horrors of genocide–Director Zwick

It is great to work with Daniel Craig. He is professional and very concentrated. He is totally focused and serious about the role but he has a good sense of humor, his jokes are very, very funny. I think Daniel has been so successful in taking over the role of James Bond because he is a great actor but I think his look is also very important. He looks so masculine and tough. The power in his eyes is incredible. I experienced that in one scene, he just looked at me and he cuts through you with his eyes; it¬ís very powerful–Olga Kurylenko on Craig's James Bond

It's like I've never been away, I was involved for a little longer this time and was working on QUANTUM OF SOLACE for about three months before we started shooting. A Bond film is a big piece of machinery, to get it going takes a lot of momentum and a lot of pushing. We kicked off straight away after Christmas and everything started falling into place–Daniel Craig

All I've ever tried to do here with 'High School Musical' was to enjoy telling a story from
a musical point of view in a lighthearted and joyful way without having an overly complicated story and overly complicated characters. I just try to bring it to life with as much fun and joy and color and excitement as possible–Director-Choreographer Kenny Ortega
