More quotes by Bruno Dumont
My life is existing. Cinema is certainly not my life
Bruno Dumont
The battle between two men over a girl is the same as the fight for two men over a piece of land. It is all about desire. There is no difference between a love triangle and the conflict between Israel and Palestine.
Bruno Dumont
The United States is such a potent political, cultural, and economic model in the evocation of the contemporary world, that to come here, select some elements from the prototype and rearrange them, that's really interesting artistically.
Bruno Dumont
I like the idea of challenging Hollywood on its own turf. It's important to do that.
Bruno Dumont
The more elaborate your narrative, the more the spectator shuts up and listens obediently. And if the filmmaker keeps quiet, the spectator will himself project his own assumptions and sentiments onto the screen.
Bruno Dumont
My thinking was that today's spectator is so well-versed in film language that all theories about suspense, as argued by Dreyer and Hitchcock, on what makes you scared in cinema, can be ditched. It's the spectator, finally, who's going to construct the menace and the fear.
Bruno Dumont
An actor is an instrument. One needs to control them.
Bruno Dumont
Sex becomes violent when you eliminate all the sentiments... voila, it gets crude.
Bruno Dumont
