Famous quotes containing the words films and, films and/or television:

    “Films and gramophone records, music, books and buildings show clearly how vigorously a man’s life and work go on after his “death,” whether we feel it or not, whether we are aware of the individual names or not.... There is no such thing as death according to our view!”
    —Martin Bormann (1900–1945)

    “Does art reflect life? In movies, yes. Because more than any other art form, films have been a mirror held up to society’s porous face.”
    —Marjorie Rosen (b. 1942)

    “His [O.J. Simpson’s] supporters lined the freeway to cheer him on Friday and commentators talked about his tragedy. Did those people see the photographs of the crime scene and the great blackening pools of blood seeping into the sidewalk? Did battered women watch all this on television and realize more vividly than ever before that their lives were cheap and their pain inconsequential?”
    —Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)
