Actors Quote by Dino De Laurentiis

“Nobody taught Picasso how to paint - he learned for himself. And nobody can teach you to be a producer. You can learn the mechanics, but you can't learn what's right about a script or a director or an actor. That comes from instinct and intuition. It comes from inside you.” quote by Dino De Laurentiis — Download Open image
