“Every film is hard work, and a few lucky people do get Oscars for what they do, and it's recognition for all that hard work on a certain level. If you didn't do the hard work, you wouldn't be standing there. On the other hand, people do a lot of hard work and don't get Oscars, so it's a mixture of glory and injustice at the same time.” PeopleIfsHardHandsFilmCertainLevelsHard WorkLuckyGloryStandingInjusticeRecognitionOscarsMixturesStanding There Author:Walter Murch

“On the one hand, you have these huge budget films that cost millions of dollars. They are effects driven, they don't have well known actors in them, and they are making money. Well, some of them are. One the other hand, you have Stallone and Statham, and guys like DeNiro and Pacino, and Costner, who are all trying to make movies about real people.

“I define Inner Space as an imaginary realm in which on the one hand the outer world of reality, and on the other the inner world of the mind meet and merge. Now, in the landscapes of the surrealist painters, for example, one sees the regions of Inner Space; and increasingly I believe that we will encounter in film and literature scenes which are neither solely realistic nor fantastic. In a sense, it will be a movement in the interzone between both spheres.” WorldMindBelieveHandsRealityFilmLiteratureI BelieveSpaceExampleMovementScenePainterFantasticLandscapeRealmsEncountersRegionsRealisticSpheresImaginaryInner WorldOuter WorldsSurrealist Author:J.

“There seems to be an assumption that if you're offended by movie brutality, you are somehow playing into the hands of the people who want censorship. But this would deny those of us who don't believe in censorship the use of the only counter-balance: the freedom of the press to say that there's anything conceivably damaging in these films - the freedom to analyze their implications. How can people go on talking about the dazzling brilliance of movies and not notice that the directors are sucking up to the thugs in the audience?” PeopleIfsWantBelieveUseHandsSeemsFilmTalkingAudienceViolenceGoes OnBalanceDirectorsPressesDon't BelieveDenyAssumptionMovieCensorshipOffendedImplicationsBrillianceBrutalityThugFreedom Of The PressDazzling Author:Pauline Kael

“Anybody that makes films knows the film is never finished. It's abandoned or it's ripped out of your hands, and it's thrown into the marketplace, never finished.

I'm going to put it out there."” KnowsMadeHandsWantedFilmPerfectNeededFinishedMade ItFilmmakerThrownAbandonedMarketplaceRipped Author:George Lucas
