“It was a pity that movies and live TV left New York for Hollywood. London theater, movies, television - until (Britain's) money ran out - were always better than ours since the city was the political capital of the country, as well as the artistic and literary one.

“I know a bit about his [Sirk] life, but it's more about his style than biography. He was European and came out of a theater background, and could easily be defined as 'Brechtian.' He was expressionistic in his films, and was an example of those intensely intellectual artists who ended up working for American studios, and was handed the Ladies Home Journal and asked to adapt the stories for the screen. He found ways to use his artistry to make them interesting and nuanced, while critiquing American values in the process.” KnowsWayStoriesUseHomeFilmArtistValuesFoundBitsProcessInterestingStyleExampleIntellectualTheaterStudiosScreensBackgroundsDefinedJournalBiographiesArtistryAmerican Values Author:Todd Haynes
