Famous quotes containing the words movies and/or television:

    Nostalgia, the vice of the aged. We watch so many old movies our memories come in monochrome.
    Angela Carter (1940–1992)

    Television ... helps blur the distinction between framed and unframed reality. Whereas going to the movies necessarily entails leaving one’s ordinary surroundings, soap operas are in fact spatially inseparable from the rest of one’s life. In homes where television is on most of the time, they are also temporally integrated into one’s “real” life and, unlike the experience of going out in the evening to see a show, may not even interrupt its regular flow.
