There's only three movies I've been involved with in my

There’s only three movies I’ve been involved with in my whole life that I really care about. ‘Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid’ was one, and ‘Princess Bride’ was the second, and ‘Hearts in Atlantis’ is the third.
William Goldman
I’m all for guys being butch and guys being men. I identify with that and appreciate that. But if I’m going to stab my gay brother in the back who isn’t butch and who maybe acts a little bit more effeminate, what good is that?
Kyan Douglas
When I was younger I saw a movie called ‘Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid’ with Paul Newman and Robert Redford. Those two actors and that movie was my inspiration to want to be an actor.
Peter Facinelli
I am a big fan of movies that don’t take themselves too seriously. You know you won’t change the world, but have fun. Movies like ‘Butch Cassidy’ I enjoyed tremendously, but it didn’t alter my opinion of the world.
Baltasar Kormakur
Rivalries don’t necessarily mean races being close at major championships. I had a rivalry with Butch Reynolds for many years. I won all the races, but Butch was the world record holder before I came into the sport, he was extremely talented and he was the only other man running 43 seconds.
Michael Johnson
I hate the stereotype that women who fight are ‘butch’ or ‘wannabe men.’ It’s nice to be able to embrace being a beautiful, strong woman.
Miesha Tate
I’m competitive but I’m not butch.
Charley Boorman
‘Butch Cassidy’ was the only film I ever enjoyed making.
Robert Redford
I definitely think men prefer women more undone and natural than butch and masculine. They prefer a fresher, sexier, more feminine look.
Marie Helvin
Bob Fosse, even though he wasn’t gay. He was certainly queer and had a huge effect on the ‘Hedwig’ film, as did Hal Ashby and Robert Altman, who had a weird butch queer feeling about him. His films almost flirted with camp but in an extremely realistic acting way.
John Cameron Mitchell
I seem to get cast as one of two extremes. Either I play the butch heavy or totally nice guys.
Tim Pigott-Smith
I think a lot of people thought my career started with Butch Cassidy.
Robert Redford
I’m the tomboy so I got to be a little butch.
Laura Prepon
I’d go to lesbian parties. I felt like I wasn’t hard enough to be butch, but I wasn’t wearing heels and a skirt – I wasn’t femme – so I felt like I was sort of invisible.
Dee Rees
When I was growing up, ‘Butch and Sundance’ was my absolute favorite film.
James Purefoy
I’m old, but I’m still cute and strong. And very butch.
Geraldo Rivera
I think I was scared of the drag thing, as a lot of gay boys are. It’s sort of knocked out of you in junior high. I wouldn’t find guys who were very feminine attractive. Then, doing ‘Hedwig,’ I got to be man and woman, really butch and really femme at the same time, and I realized, this is kind of the ideal.
John Cameron Mitchell
