Famous quotes containing the word movies:
“The movies today are too rich to have any room for genuine artists. They produce a few passable craftsmen, but no artists. Can you imagine a Beethoven making $100,000 a year?”
—H.L. (Henry Lewis)
“People sometimes say that the way things happen in the movies is unreal, but actually its the way things happen to you in life thats unreal. The movies make emotions look so strong and real, whereas when things really do happen to you, its like watching televisionyou dont feel anything.”
—Andy Warhol (19281987)
“The popularity of disaster movies ... expresses a collective perception of a world threatened by irresistible and unforeseen forces which nevertheless are thwarted at the last moment. Their thinly veiled symbolic meaning might be translated thus: We are innocent of wrongdoing. We are attacked by unforeseeable forces come to harm us. We are, thus, innocent even of negligence. Though those forces are insuperable, chance will come to our aid and we shall emerge victorious.”
—David Mamet (b. 1947)
