There are only two types of cinema - good or bad.
I think film is about images. Cinema needs good images. I think that if you don’t have good images, it’s not going to be a good film. I think all films should be really visual.
Everybody has something that chews them up and, for me, that thing was always loneliness. The cinema has the power to make you not feel lonely, even when you are.
I remember driving around with my parents when I was little and looking out of the window and being very aware that it was the shape of a film screen when you went to the cinema. This was how I first saw the world, framed through a car window.
I know there is one kind of cinema that exists in the world, that is good or bad cinema.
If you love cinema as much as I do, and not many people do, and if you are focused and actually have something to offer, you will get somewhere with it.
I live cinema and passionately love music, and my efforts in both these crafts are unfolding.
This is what we have all come to Cannes for: for something different, experimental, a tilting at windmills, a great big pole-vault over the barrier of normality by someone who feels that the possibilities of cinema have not been exhausted by conventional realist drama.
Most of us live our lives devoid of cinematic moments.
To the leaders of the cinema still to come, I can offer only a few words drawn from my modest experience. You must ceaselessly formulate and sharpen your critical views, both of others and of yourselves.
I'm at peace with myself. My film just may please audiences. At any rate, it's already a great prize to be part of just 16 films among all of the world cinema out there. I'm tranquil and satisfied.
Cinema has become a global economy, totally international.
Never in the history of cinema has a medium entertained an audience. It's what you do with the medium.
Everyone is looking for a purpose in life. The reason we all go to the cinema, or online, is because we haven't found a purpose yet. We are always wondering why we're here. But I've learned that we have to create that purpose for ourselves. My purpose, which I finally found thanks to social media, is helping all of these people find their purpose.
Cinema is movement, after all.
A message I've been telling myself: the cinema is very conservative, and unless you have a story that satisfies you, that is within the unchallenging zone, but you love it, you can't do it as cinema. Otherwise, you better go do it for television, which is more daring now.
If cinema is a woman then certainly there are many shores.
I think American cinema, particularly, has become so disposable. It's not even cinema, It's just moviemaking.
IN CINEMA IT IS NECESSARY NOT TO EXPLAIN, BUT TO ACT UPON THE VIEWER'S FEELINGS, AND THE EMOTION WHICH IS AWOKEN IS WHAT PROVOKES THOUGHT.
The most important question in American cinema, I've learned, is 'When is lunch?'
The cinema has the power to make you not feel lonely, even when you are.
Today films are made to cater to commercial markets created by multiplexes, not for those who enjoy good cinema.
Vivek Oberoi is the most over rated actor in Hindi cinema
I tell my children to avoid theatre and go into cinema and TV.
I'm back... and you knew I was coming. On my way here I passed a cinema with the sign 'The Mummy Returns'.
