Cinema Verite Quotes

I do not believe in the Cinema verite. Sometimes a really good lie is better than any truth Picture Quote #1

Realism is always subjective in film. There’s no such thing as cinema verite. The only true cinema verite would be what Andy Warhol did with his film about the Empire State Building - eight hours or so from one angle, and even then it’s not really cinema verite, because you aren’t actually there Picture Quote #1

For seven years, I made films in the cinema verite tradition - photographing what was happening without manipulating it. Then I realised I wanted to make things happen for myself, through feature films Picture Quote #1

Campaign may invite a certain skepticism about democracy, but it will surely restore your faith in cinema verite Picture Quote #1

I came from the school of cinema verite documentaries, which was: Do not manipulate reality as it was happening but create a narrative in the editing room Picture Quote #1

I think that narrative, fiction filmmaking is the culmination of several art forms: theater, art history, architecture. Whereas doc filmmaking is more pure cinema, like cinema verite is film in its purest form Picture Quote #1

I look at the human sciences as poetic sciences in which there is no objectivity, and I see film as not being objective, and cinema verite as a cinema of lies that depends on the art of telling yourself lies. If you’re a good storyteller then the lie is more true than reality, and if you’re a bad one, the truth is worse than a half lie Picture Quote #1
