General Cinema

Famous quotes containing the words general and/or cinema:

“A constitutional statesman is in general a man of common opinions and uncommon abilities.”
—Walter Bagehot (1826–1877)

“Compare ... the cinema with theatre. Both are dramatic arts. Theatre brings actors before a public and every night during the season they re-enact the same drama. Deep in the nature of theatre is a sense of ritual. The cinema, by contrast, transports its audience individually, singly, out of the theatre towards the unknown.”
—John Berger (b. 1926)
