More quotes by Dario Argento
Films are dreams. Many, many critics say to me that my films are not good because they are too unbelievable, but this is my style. I tell stories like they are dreams. This is my imagination. For me, it would be impossible to do a film that is so precise, that resembles real life.
Dario Argento
Each film I make changes me in some way. When I start the picture I'm one person and by the time I finish I'm another.
Dario Argento
Maybe when I stop making movies, I'll understand my work better.
Dario Argento
But no one should have the right to manipulate my films in the first place.
Dario Argento
I'm Dario Argento, and my style is something recognizable I think by the audience.
Dario Argento
In each of my characters there is a little of me. Not strictly autobiographical but a little piece of my soul.
Dario Argento
When I see a film I've finished, it's like another person made it. Like another mind.
Dario Argento
Theres nothing gratuitous about my films.
Dario Argento
If you don't like my movies, don't watch them.
Dario Argento
Then I realized my early work did have something special that audiences adored apart from what I humbly thought about them. They occupy a distinguished niche in Italian film history and probably always will.
Dario Argento
I wanted something new, the supernatural. The witch, the sorcerer, I love this. I love the films of the witch and sorcerers and magic, its wonderful!
Dario Argento
The process of writing and directing drives you to such extremes that it's natural to feel an affinity with insanity. I approach that madness as something dangerous, and I'm afraid, but also I want to go to it, to see what's there, to embrace it. I don't know why, but I'm drawn.
Dario Argento
Paradise is too perfect for humanity.
Dario Argento
The Opera was a very cold film, a hopeless and dark film, no hope, no love.
Dario Argento
Horror is like a serpent always shedding its skin, always changing. And it will always come back. It can't be hidden away like the guilty secrets we try to keep in our subconscious.
Dario Argento
I went through a phase where I thought nostalgia was a bad thing.
Dario Argento
I want to do what I want when I want to do it not be dictated to by audiences.
Dario Argento
Fear has disappeared. No more fear. In Asia, it is different. They've discovered again the fear and the psychology of the characters. Without psychology, the horror film doesn't exist.
Dario Argento
It irritated me that my fans kept wanting me to retread old ground.
Dario Argento
In Italy the censor is very old and there are many judges and psychiatrists who analyse you.
