Famous quotes containing the words film and/or festival:
“To read a newspaper for the first time is like coming into a film that has been on for an hour. Newspapers are like serials. To understand them you have to take knowledge to them; the knowledge that serves best is the knowledge provided by the newspaper itself.”
—V.S. (Vidiadhar Surajprasad)
“Sabbath. A weekly festival having its origin in the fact that God made the world in six days and was arrested on the seventh.”
