Famous quotes containing the word movies:
“The popularity of disaster movies ... expresses a collective perception of a world threatened by irresistible and unforeseen forces which nevertheless are thwarted at the last moment. Their thinly veiled symbolic meaning might be translated thus: We are innocent of wrongdoing. We are attacked by unforeseeable forces come to harm us. We are, thus, innocent even of negligence. Though those forces are insuperable, chance will come to our aid and we shall emerge victorious.”
—David Mamet (b. 1947)
“Every now and then, when youre on stage, you hear the best sound a player can hear. Its a sound you cant get in movies or in television. It is the sound of a wonderful, deep silence that means youve hit them where they live.”
—Shelley Winters (b. 1922)
“The movies were my textbooks for everything else in the world. When it wasnt, I altered it. If I saw a college, I would see only cheerleaders or blonds. If I saw New York City, I would want to go to the slums Id seen in the movies, where the tough kids played. If I went to Chicago, Id want to see the brawling factories and the gangsters.”
—Jill Robinson (b. 1936)
