I was with my dad 20 years ago as he was dying. I was there at the moment of his death, and I kept wondering the whole while what it must feel like from his point of view to still be there thinking, hearing all that was going on as people came and went, and life continued all around him.
Every filmmaker imbues a movie with their own point of view.
I was very worried about whether I could do it or not. I mean, how arrogant – here I am in my 20s trying to write from the point of view of a woman in her 80s.
I believe writers need to be chameleons, or like Meryl Streep, who can play all sorts of characters. A good writer should be able to cross gender lines and people of all social classes. So for me, writing from a male point of view would be a great challenge, that I would look forward to taking on.
I clearly have a point of view; I am very passionate about my point of view. I am a commentator.
From my father’s point of view, without a thought for self, a true patriot stands up against the stones of condemnation and speaks for those who are given no real voice in the halls of justice or the halls of government.
From my point of view, the Dreyfus affair is most interesting because it was sparked by a single cause celebre. Just one court case – one disputed trial – plunged an entire country into an angry debate, creating unresolvable divisions between people who had previously not known that they disagreed with one another.
There is no absolute point of view from which real and ideal can be finally separated and labelled.
I know what it is like to fear violence. I understand the adrenalin rush that comes before violent confrontations. I write my scripts from an emotional point of view and direct so the audience can experience this adrenalin rush.

We don’t like trends. We formed initially because we felt we had something of our own to say. What was happening was lacking in certain aspects – it needed a different point of view, a variant on things, but with the same attack, impact.
As much as a man would like to believe that he understands women, there is simply that much that he can write from their point of view or really understand them.

There are definitely challenges that come with being the only woman in any room, and on a show like ‘The Breakfast Club,’ with strong opinions, it can be hard to get the guys to see things from my point of view.
When I’m doing the Justice League stuff, my point of view is always coming through Buddy. And he’s a dad, and there’s stuff about his life that I relate to with my life, and I can also take the abilities of animals, which a lot of people don’t know about me.
The point of having a director is that they make the final decision; it’s their point of view, they set the rhythm and they make the final decisions.

Suning from a management concept and technology point of view isn’t simply an appliance company.
The most fatal illusion is the narrow point of view. Since life is growth and motion, a fixed point of view kills anybody who has one.
From my own point of view, I went to college in the States. I am very comfortable on the PGA Tour. I have made my family life over there. It would be a big upheaval for me to play full time in Europe, which is why I have decided that I am going to play mostly in the U.S. but still support Europe when it is possible.
I think one reason my books have found mainstream success is that they’re written from a skeptical point of view.
One of the greatest things about the book is that everything we know about ‘It,’ it’s pretty speculative. We see it from the point of view of Loser’s and that’s what makes it so scary. We never get to know exactly what it is.
I suppose I have very undesirable traits. I am very critical, which is very undesirable. But it is good from a business point of view.
Each of us has come to share the same point of view, that a global e-marketplace is absolutely essential if we are to drive new levels of efficiency for the industry.
Everyone has a responsibility to not only tolerate another person’s point of view, but also to accept it eagerly as a challenge to your own understanding. And express those challenges in terms of serving other people.
I have a very feminine voice when I write, a very womanly point of view. My last name feels strong and powerful. To me, it’s almost a bit masculine. I like the dichotomy of the two. Two sides perfectly represented within my name.
I think it’s important that the lived experiences and the point of view of L.G.B.T. folks be included in conversations that affect all of us.
I kind of look at things from a very common-sense point of view.
War… some people glamorise war and glorify war. It’s not nice, from whatever point of view you come from.
I feel particularly close to them, because I am now out in the universe. I’m in a position to see nature from another point of view, to be outside the earth and see the big picture.
Some novels present a story form many points of view. Most movies tell only one person’s side of the story. Sometime it’s easy to use the strongest point of view, or find the character with the most dramatic experience. It depends on which themes the scriptwriter wants to explore.
People like to pretend that all women have the same experience or that all gay people have the same experience. But everyone’s life is different, and everyone’s point of view is valid.
I love scoring. Putting music to picture is a rewarding challenge and one that relies on interpretation of emotion – as in, what is the pivotal feeling in a scene and which character’s point of view is driving it at any given moment?
My Dad has given me a lot of advice, but this advice comes especially from the attitude point of view. He’s never told me how to drive a car, how to do a corner, nothing like that. He believe this comes from the talent. You are born with it or you are not born with it.
In fact, I would defend to the death their right to express a different point of view.
Personally when I listen to a script, I think from the audience’s point of view. I would ask myself whether they would like to see me in this role?
I find it very interesting: when 90 percent of the critics that review films are men, how is that helpful when trying to create stories from a feminine point of view?
Acting, believe it or not, can get very self-involved! I feel fortunate to have been able to work on things with people who have a very specific point of view and perspective, and who feel like they’re doing something very active.
Somebody said something really smart: It’s like you end up being the defense attorney for your role. Your job is to defend their point of view. You’re fighting for what they want. You learn that in acting school – it’s Acting 1A: ‘What do you want? What’s in the way?’
A lot of the time, because we don’t have many Latinx scenarios on the landscape, not just in television or film and other media, we haven’t gotten the chance to tell our story from our point of view.
I’m incredibly tenacious, but I also try so hard in my work to really listen to people and address their point of view. In the end, I always remember who I’m an advocate for.
France on its own cannot impose its point of view. But neither should it give up on its demands. With a clear vote for change France will be in a strong position.
It is probably safe to say that all the changes of factual knowledge which have led to the relativity theory, resulting in a very great theoretical development, are completely trivial from any point of view except their relevance to the structure of a theoretical system.
People are deciding – if they don’t like a particular point of view or a particular paper, it goes out of business.

Symmetry principles are principles governing the laws of nature that say those laws look the same if you change your point of view in certain ways.
My wardrobe for ‘Suits’ isn’t like ‘Working Girl’ – dressing for work doesn’t have to be so on-the-nose these days. The key is to have your own point of view attached to it. Personally, I love cropped pants in vegan leather, a great fitted blazer, and a button-down.
