Movies have been doing so much of the same thing - in slightly different ways - for so long that few of the possibilities of this great hybrid art have yet been explored.

What this generation was bred to at television's knees was not wisdom, but cynicism.

The romance of movies is not just in those stories and those people on the screen but in the adolescent dream of meeting others who feel as you do about what you’ve seen.

It seems likely that many of the young who don't wait for others to call them artists, but simply announce that they are, don't have the patience to make art.

Television represents what happens to a medium when the artists have no power and the businessmen are in full, unquestioned control.

Really, it's not people who don't understand us who drive us nuts—it's when those who shouldn't, do.

Her only flair is in her nostrils.
