Sound Film System

Famous quotes containing the words sound, film and/or system:

    Only the sound remains,
    the distant thump of the good elephants,
    the voice of the ancient lions
    and how the bells
    trembled for the flying man.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    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)

    The golden mean in ethics, as in physics, is the centre of the system and that about which all revolve, and though to a distant and plodding planet it be an uttermost extreme, yet one day, when that planet’s year is completed, it will be found to be central.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
