Film Quotes

It’s a nightmare to sit and watch a film that I’m in. There’s a horrible inescapability to it Picture Quote #1

Even if I set out to make a film about a fillet of sole, it would be about me Picture Quote #1

Every film is a crapshoot. It’s a mystery when a movie comes together. I’ve never been able to figure it out. I don’t know how I make my choices. The only thing you can do is know there’s something about a character that you really want to experience Picture Quote #1

Film as dream, film as music. No art passes our conscience in the way film does, and goes directly to our feelings, deep down into the dark rooms of our souls Picture Quote #1

Film editing is now something almost everyone can do at a simple level and enjoy it, but to take it to a higher level requires the same dedication and persistence that any art form does Picture Quote #1

Film is a very young art that is still evolving. Soon, we shall reach a balance between content and technology Picture Quote #1

Historically the director has been the key creative element in a film and we must maintain that. We must protect that, in spite of the fact that there is new technology that’s continually trying to erode that Picture Quote #1

Hopefully each film can be given a musical voice of its own, which is not to say that the instrumentation is always unique, but that the relationship between the sound and the image is unique Picture Quote #1

I don’t want people to sit there and objectively watch the film. I want them to experience it as something that’s under their skin, so you try to make the films really tactile Picture Quote #1

I genuinely believe that if you want to get in the film business, get in the film business Picture Quote #1

I had very strong feelings, so the chance to make a film that deals in an imaginative way with stuff you care tremendously about is a real high. It’s a really amazing thing to be able to do Picture Quote #1

I have a desire to create more film, more beauty, more art, more love, but I don’t feel desperate. It’s not about creating or building a career Picture Quote #1

I have this theory that your first film is always your best film in some way. I always try to get back to that moment when you’re not relying on things you’ve done before Picture Quote #1

I have tried to preserve in my relationship to the film the same closeness and intimacy that exists between a painter and his canvas Picture Quote #1

I learned what I really love is making films, not the film business. I want to be on the set, meeting with writers, I want that freedom. I love it now Picture Quote #1
