Famous quotes containing the words top and/or films:

    “it took
    a nipponized bit of
    the old sixth
    avenue
    el; in the top of his head: to tell

    him”
    —E.E. (Edward Estlin)

    “The cinema is not an art which films life: the cinema is something between art and life. Unlike painting and literature, the cinema both gives to life and takes from it, and I try to render this concept in my films. Literature and painting both exist as art from the very start; the cinema doesn’t.”
    —Jean-Luc Godard (b. 1930)
