Famous quotes containing the words films and/or war:

    The cinema is not an art which films life: the cinema is something between art and life. Unlike painting and literature, the cinema both gives to life and takes from it, and I try to render this concept in my films. Literature and painting both exist as art from the very start; the cinema doesn’t.
    Jean-Luc Godard (b. 1930)

    Tanks. In any normal war they’re a beautiful sight, on your side.
    Richard Blake, and William Cameron Menzies. Col. Fielding (Millburn Stone)
