Famous quotes containing the words top and/or films:

    “One day He
    tipped His top hat
    and walked
    out of the room,
    ending the argument.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    “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)
