“When I moved to Paris in the '70s, there wasn't very much going on in film in England. So when I started doing French films, there was a natural movement toward the kind of films I wanted to do. It wasn't the reason I came, but it so happened that I stepped into a time and place that actually corresponded to what I wanted. That sometimes happens in life. And it was rather beautiful.” KindSometimesReasonHappensWantedBeautifulFilmNaturalHappenedMovementEnglandMovedParis Author:Charlotte Rampling
“There is a secret, I think. When you are front of a camera there is something that happens. Some relationship, some movement, some strange kind of suspension. That's where you find the layer in yourself that is duplicated in everyone. And when you get it right, if you can imagine all the hearts beating in one beat, it's like that. It's beautiful.” IfsThinkingHeartKindHappensBeautifulSecretImagineFrontsMovementStrangeBeatsCamerasLayersHeart BeatSuspensionHeart Beating Author:Juliette Binoche
“Mark Tobey fills his canvases with elliptical, calligraphic lines, beautiful whirls that seem at first glance to be completely abstract and to come from nowhere at all except his own subjective musing. But I shall never forget how struck I was, on visiting Tobey's studio one day, to see strewn around books on astronomy and photographs of the Milky Way. I knew then that Tobey experiences the movement of the stars and solar constellations as the external pole of his encounter.” WayFirstsBookSeemsBeautifulStarsLinesForgetMovementOne DayMarkPhotographStudiosAstronomyAbstractEncountersNever ForgetGlancesSubjectiveVisitingConstellationsMusingsMilky Way Author:Rollo May
“Lately I feel films are more and more like music. Music deals with abstractions and, like film, it involves time. It has many different movements, it has much contrast. And through music you learn that, in order to get a particular beautiful feeling, you have to have started far back, arranging certain things in a certain way. You can't just cut to it.” WayFeelsDifferentFeelingsBeautifulFilmCertainOrderDealsCuttingMovementParticularContrastAbstractionArranging Author:David Lynch
