Famous quotes containing the words book and/or film:
“A book is never a masterpiece: it becomes one. Genius is the talent of a dead man.”
—Edmond De Goncourt (1822–1896)
“I think of horror films as art, as films of confrontation. Films that make you confront aspects of your own life that are difficult to face. Just because you’re making a horror film doesn’t mean you can’t make an artful film.”
—David Cronenberg (b. 1943)
