I like and I love everything that has to do with cinema, writing, directing, editing, creating music, and even acting.
Werner Herzog
Image
There are deeper strata of truth in cinema, and there is such a thing as poetic, ecstatic truth. It is mysterious and elusive, and can be reached only through fabrication and imagination and stylization.
Werner Herzog
Image
Roger Ebert was a very valiant soldier of cinema who passed away, and we miss him. It's over with serious discourse about cinema in the print media and on television. It has been replaced by celebrity news. So we are speaking in his spirit always.
Werner Herzog
Image
Film is not analysis, it is the agitation of mind cinema comes from the country fair and the circus, not from art and academicism.
Werner Herzog
Image
I do not believe in the Cinema verite. Sometimes a really good lie is better than any truth.
Werner Herzog
Image
I have not seen a film as powerful, surreal, and frightening in at least a decade unprecedented in the history of cinema.
Werner Herzog
Image
Movies are visual, aural, they involve people, and life, and ideas and art, they are so elastic. They can hold anything, withstand everything, and make you feel anything. Other arts can do that, but movies are the only ones that can incorporate other media into cinema.
Wesley Morris
Image
We cannot put cinema in parallel with the political, because politics are something dirty and cinema is not dirty.
Ali Suliman
Image
Indian cinema seems to be growing very well at its own pace.
Brad Pitt
Image
I don't think we've seen any cinema yet. I think we've seen 100 years of illustrated text.
Peter Greenaway
Image
The silent pictures were the purest form of cinema
Alfred Hitchcock
Image
Drama is life with the dull bits cut out.
Alfred Hitchcock
Image
The length of a film should be directly related to the endurance of the human bladder.
Alfred Hitchcock
Image
A record is something that isn't real or true. It's like cinema. It's a construction of something hyper-real and surreal and unreal all at the same time. You make a space that doesn't really exist. One of the big joys of being in this line of work is building the recorded versions of the songs.
Will Oldham
Image
I'm interested in the cultural thing - music, then eventually cinema. I think it's part of my struggle as a cultural worker. I'm not into the armed thing. I cannot be violent.
Lav Diaz
Image
A book is a book, but a movie is a movie. The more faithful you are, the more you'll come up with Harry Potter #1 and #2, which are like filmed books on tape. They're so petrified of turning off the readers that they make no concessions to the fact that they're trying to make a piece of cinema.
Alexander Payne
Image
Cinema really lends itself well to big, archetypal stories, you know, classic old stories and you need kind of a weird, big terrain like the Japanese plains for Samurai movies or the West. You need that for these giants to walk around.
Alexander Payne
Image
I like action films, not exclusively, but I like Samurai films. I like Westerns. Not so much war pictures, but a few. I like kinetic cinema.
Alexander Payne
Image
Cinema, which is influenced by every single part of life, is direct and reaches you immediately. And writing - the best writing is complex ideas communicated concisely. And music - if it's a good tune, make sure people can bloody hear it!
Alex Kapranos
Image
As for my style, for my vision of the cinema, editing is not simply one aspect it's the aspect.
Orson Welles
Image
Don't make your living with cinema because Hollywood will take you, will eat you, will destroy you. This is the reality. You have a good picture, have success, you take the person and they destroy you.
Alejandro Jodorowsky
Image
I ask of cinema what most North Americans ask of psychedelic drugs.
Alejandro Jodorowsky
Image
I understand when there's no money for the arts in the government, but it should maybe pressure private companies to support more filmmakers. These exhibition and distribution companies are huge, and there might be incentives for them to invest more in Mexican cinema.
Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu
Image
A cinephile is someone who expects too much of cinema.
Serge Daney
