We have to move away from the concept of screening in cinemas. This can be achieved with the new technologies. I enjoy my films and the fact that I can include you in them as well. Cinema is only a small part of a much greater phenomenon. We transcend the barriers of culture. DVDs' image quality and longevity provide us with new prospects. They are a powerful medium. I think they were invented especially for me.

Cinema basically examines a personality first and the body afterward.

For so many filmmakers, cinema is a means to an end.

Life is full of a thousand red herrings, and it takes the history of a civilisation to work out which are the red herrings and which aren't.

There is visual illiteracy with text-oriented films like bloody 'Harry Potter' and 'Lord of the Rings.'.

I like to think of The Falls as my own personal encyclopedia Greenaway-ensis.

It serves the purpose of not serving a purpose, surely quite a valid one.
