“Ten years ago I was not heavily involved in the film world but on reflection it was a boom time with the mineral boom happening, so there was immense growth for industrial training films, documentaries to do with the mining, and the outback world.” WorldYearsFilmGrowthInvolvedTenTrainingHappeningsReflectionYears AgoImmenseDocumentariesMineralsMining Author:Ann Macbeth
“In the last ten years of watching films I have found that some of the foreign films I saw affected me most.

“And so I look back on not just the last ten years but everything that I've done as being sort of an ongoing growing continual film school. I mean I don't think I've got to a point where I've achieved anything that feels like, a particular milestone, but there's still a lot more to learn and hopefully a lot more films to make.” ThinkingFeelsYearsLooksMeanStillsDoneSchoolLastsFilmGrowingParticularTenHopefullyOngoingMilestoneFilm School Author:Peter Jackson
“I understand the feelings of critics asked to come up with the ten best films of any year, who say, Ten? Ten's a lot! - and those more generous spirits whose thumbs grow as long as Pinocchio's nose from overrating a lot of pictures, because they want the medium to do well, and because they'd like to feel good about it.” WantFeelsYearsWellsLongFeelingsFilmSpiritGrowsTenHollywoodCriticsCome UpFeel GoodMediumsNosesGenerousThumbsBest FilmGenerous Spirit Author:Edward Jay Epstein

“Memory is strange. Scientifically, it is not a mechanical means of repeating something. I can think a thousand times about when I broke my leg at the age of ten, but it is never the same thing which comes to mind when I think about it. My memory of this event has never been, in reality, anything except the memory of my last memory of that event. This is why I use the image of a palimpsest - something written over something partially erased - that is what memory is for me. It's not a film you play back in exactly the same way. It's like theater, with characters who appear from time to time.” ThinkingWayMindMeanI CanPlayCharacterUseRealityAgeLastsFilmMemoriesWrittenEventsStrangeThousandTenTheaterLegsBrokePalimpsest Author:Gore Vidal
