Famous quotes containing the word film:
“All film directors, whether famous or obscure, regard themselves as misunderstood or underrated. Because of that, they all lie. They’re obliged to overstate their own importance.”
—François Truffaut (1932–1984)
“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.”
