Agnès Jaoui

“For us, the main theme of “Let It Rain” was how all these people, with their different subjects and problems, the common agent is that they all feel the victim of something and they all need to be recognized in their pain. People say, ‘I suffered, I suffered,’ sometimes forgetting others are suffering too.”

Krzysztof Kieślowski

“Maybe it is worth investigating the unknown, if only because the very feeling of not knowing is a painful one.”

Blake Edwards

“Make 'em redecorate your office. That's primary, to let them know where you stand. Then, when you're shooting interior sequences, use your own interior decorator and set dresser. That way everything on the set will fit your house when you're finished.”

Ingmar Bergman

“Film as dream, film as music. No art passes our conscience in the way film does, and goes directly to our feelings, deep down into the dark rooms of our souls.”

Woody Allen

“Comedy just pokes at problems, rarely confronts them squarely. Drama is like a plate of meat and potatoes, comedy is rather the dessert, a bit like meringue.”

Paul Thomas Anderson

“I'll rebel against powers and principalities, all the time. Always, I will.”

Lars von Trier

“I think it's important that we all try to give something to this medium, instead of just thinking about what is the most efficient way of telling a story or making an audience stay in a cinema.”
