Famous quotes containing the words portrayals, film and/or television:

    “We attempt to remember our collective American childhood, the way it was, but what we often remember is a combination of real past, pieces reshaped by bitterness and love, and, of course, the video past—the portrayals of family life on such television programs as “Leave it to Beaver” and “Father Knows Best” and all the rest.”
    —Richard Louv (20th century)

    “Film music should have the same relationship to the film drama that somebody’s piano playing in my living room has to the book I am reading.”
    —Igor Stravinsky (1882–1971)

    “We cannot spare our children the influence of harmful values by turning off the television any more than we can keep them home forever or revamp the world before they get there. Merely keeping them in the dark is no protection and, in fact, can make them vulnerable and immature.”
    —Polly Berrien Berends (20th century)
