Quote by Albert Brooks
I've done performances in movies that I was immensely proud of and the movies didn't take off like a rocket at Cape Canaveral, it didn't take off.
Summary
This quote conveys the idea that the success of a movie does not solely depend on an actor's performance. Despite giving their best and being proud of their work, the speaker acknowledges that not all movies gain popularity or achieve great success. It implies that there are numerous factors (such as marketing, timing, audience preferences) that contribute to a movie's reception and box office performance, beyond the individual performances of the actors involved.
