Famous quotes containing the words queer and/or cinema:
“It is queer how it is always one’s virtues and not one’s vices that precipitate one into disaster.”
—Rebecca West (1892–1983)
“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)
