Curiosity
doesn't matter any more. These days people don't want to be
transported to emotional territories where they don't know
how to react.
-- Hector Babenko
What is saved
in the cinema when it achieves art is a spontaneous
continuity with all mankind. It is not an art of the princes
or the bourgeoisie. It is popular and vagrant. In the sky of
the cinema people learn what they might have been and
discover what belongs to them apart from their single lives.
-- John Berger
1926-, British Actor, Critic
Film as dream,
film as music. No art passes our conscience in the way film
does, and goes directly to our feelings, deep down into the
dark rooms of our souls.
-- Ingmar Bergman
1918-, Swedish Stage, Film
Writer, Director
My movie is
born first in my head, dies on paper; is resuscitated by the
living persons and real objects I use, which are killed on
film but, placed in a certain order and projected on to a
screen, come to life again like flowers in water.
-- Robert Bresson
1907-, French Film Director
