Famous quotes containing the word film:

    “[Film noir] experiences periodic rebirth and rediscovery. Whenever we have any moment of deep societal rift or disruption in America, one of the ways we can express it is through the ideas and behavior in film noir.”
    —John Briley (b. 1925)

    “You should look straight at a film; that’s the only way to see one. Film is not the art of scholars but of illiterates.”
    —Werner Herzog (b. 1942)

    “This film is apparently meaningless, but if it has any meaning it is doubtless objectionable.”
    —British Board Of Film Censors. Quoted in Halliwell’s Filmgoer’s Companion (1984)
