“Jerusalem - a divided city, where demonstrations for and against various issues occur regularly. One day, during an Orthodox demonstration against autopsies, I happened to click a few frames while a young man pushed his hamsa (spread hand) into my camera, which is seen by some as 'the evil eye.' As it happened, it was the tail end of my roll of film and the image is actually a double exposure. This taught me that in spite of your careful framing, chance occurrences create the most interesting images.” MenEndsHandsEyeFilmYoungEvilChanceInterestingCitiesIssuesHappenedTaughtOne DayCamerasCarefulVariousSpreadYoung ManSpiteOrthodoxDividedTailsExposureDemonstrationMost InterestingClicksJerusalemFramingAutopsyEvil Eye Author:Micha Bar-Am
“I was never the kind of girl who said, "One day, I am going to be a beautiful bride, and I am going to have a family." I wanted to work and support myself and make my parents proud. All I did was work. I did three or four films a year, and felt like I was on a treadmill. Finally I said, "Nothing is exciting to me anymore." So I took six months off, which turned into a year, and said, "God, I don't miss it." That's when all kinds of interesting things crossed my path.” YearsKindSaidWantedBeautifulFilmGirlThreeFeltParentInterestingSupportPathFourMissingMonthsProudOne DaySixExcitingAll KindsSix MonthsInteresting ThingsBridesTreadmillsKind Of Girl Author:Sandra Bullock

“When you think about being a director, you think about writing stories, putting the camera in interesting places and directing the actors to get your vision, but it's hard to imagine even this process... sitting here nine months later talking about the film and talking about it 20 times in one day. You don't even think about the part where you come to the set every morning and everyone's looking at you to see your mood in order to see what the day is going to be like, and the influence that you wield.” ThinkingWritingFilmInterestingVisionMorningImagineInfluenceOne DayMoodEvery Morning Author:Cary Fukunaga
