“To me, a revolutionary film is not a film about a revolution. It has a lot more to do with the art form. It's a film that is revolting against the old established language of cinema that had been brainwashing the people for decades. It is a film that is trying to find ways to use sound and image differently.” PeopleTryingArtFilmLanguageRevolutionRevolutionaryBrainwashing Author:Tamer El Said
“I hate political films that have one particular message that they're trying to convey. I think propaganda is very dangerous, and it's very easy for anything to slip into it. I also think that propaganda is something that defies the identity of cinema. I hate propaganda in cinema, even if it was promoting the political stance that I myself am allied with. I always say that the responsibility of a film is first and foremost: To be a film. It's not a manifesto, it's not an op-ed.” ThinkingTryingFilmPoliticalHateEasyResponsibilityDangerousIdentityI HatePropaganda Author:Tamer El Said
