| 1 | I've worked with an awful lot of people. Katy Hepburn, Spencer Tracy. |
| 2 | I started out to be a painter and was born into the theater. |
| 3 | I seem to be drawn to things that actually happen. |
| 4 | In the Thirties, when I was in New York, I did the first surrealistic ballet in a show of mine. |
| 5 | If anybody reads a story in a magazine or book, different pictures compete in their minds. |
| 6 | I had given up the theater and everything propelled me into entertainment. And I didn't resist it. |
| 7 | I learn new things all the time. |
| 8 | I made three films with Douglas, two with Charles Boyer. |
| 9 | I allow an area for improvisation because the chemical things actors bring to stories make it not work. |
| 10 | I always liked the Van Gogh story because I was terribly involved in that. |
| 11 | The Pirate is surrealism and so, in a curious way, is Father of the Bride. |
| 12 | Color can do anything that black-and-white can. |
| 13 | I always have coffee without sugar, you know. Just cream. |
| 14 | It's the story that counts. |
| 15 | I use colors to bring fine points of story and character. |
| 16 | It's always the story that interests me. |
| 17 | We shot that in all the real places where Van Gogh worked. |
| 18 | That's what I think musicals will come to. No backstage stories, nothing of that sort. |
| 19 | Nowadays the audience has changed. No one can anticipate the audience. |
| 20 | No, I only like whether I like the story or not, essentially see something in it that isn't completely there. |
| 21 | Designing Woman was written for the screen. |
| 22 | But I think musicals are going to have to deal with important subjects. |
| 23 | Cedric Gibbons was the grand cardinal of the art department. |
| 24 | American films are terribly popular all over the world and American movie stars are terribly important. I don't know why. |
| 25 | I see wonderful films by Bertolucci, Visconti, and Fellini. |
| 26 | Dali was the great painter then and surrealism was a way of life. |
| 27 | Fortunately, John Houseman is a marvelous writer and he sat in on so many story conferences. He worked with Welles, you know, and he's a marvelous man. |
| 28 | But surrealism is present in most of my pictures. |
| 29 | West Side Story was terribly important because of the style of the dancing and the gangs of New York. |
| 30 | But I went down to Venezuela and spend a few weeks going through jungles. It's fantastic looking. |
| 31 | [on the re-editing of "Two Weeks In Another Town"]: It's painful to talk about the ruin of that film even now. |

| 1 | He directed two Best Picture Academy Award winners: An American in Paris (1951) and Gigi (1958). |
| 2 | Owns the record at the Radio City Music Hall. 17 of his films played for a record 85 weeks. Although director John Cromwell had 18 films booked into the prestigious house, his films only played a total of 36 weeks. |

| 4 | Biography in: "The Scribner Encyclopedia of American Lives". Volume Two, 1986-1990, pages 632-633. New York: Charles Scribner's Sons, 1999. |
| 5 | One of the few Hollywood studio directors who can truly be said to have an unmistakable mise-en-scene. Minnelli was at first a set and costume designer before being allowed to direct by Arthur Freed, head of the MGM musical unit. His visual touch in Technicolor is sometimes garish, some might say close to vulgar, but in his best work (Meet Me in St. Louis (1944)) every visual element is a reflection of his singularly original visual talent. |
| 6 | Godparents of his and Judy Garland's daughter Liza Minnelli were Ira Gershwin and Kay Thompson. |
| 7 | Member of the jury at the Cannes Film Festival in 1967. |
| 8 | Is portrayed by Hugh Laurie in Life with Judy Garland: Me and My Shadows (2001). |
| 9 | Directed seven different actors in Oscar-nominated performances: Spencer Tracy, Gloria Grahame, Kirk Douglas, Anthony Quinn, Arthur Kennedy, Shirley MacLaine and Martha Hyer. Grahame and Quinn won Oscars for their performances. |

| 11 | Biography in: John Wakeman, editor. "World Film Directors, Volume One, 1890-1945". Pages 778-787. New York: The H.W. Wilson Company, 1987. |
| 12 | Was voted the 20th Greatest Director of all time by Entertainment Weekly. |
| 13 | When he was signed to MGM, he was allowed to apprentice for a year on the lot. By the time he started directing, he knew every department at the studio. |
| 14 | Insisted on using a shade of yellow in the design of his sets that had to be specially mixed. MGM painters began calling it "Minnelli Yellow." |
| 15 | Invented the crab dolly, a camera dolly on wheels that can move the camera in any direction. |
| 16 | Daughter Christiana Nina Minnelli born 1955. |
| 17 | Ex-father-in-law of Peter Allen, Jack Haley Jr., Mark Gero and David Gest. |
| 18 | Interred at Forest Lawn, Glendale, California, USA, in the Triumphant Faith Terraces area. |
