Kenneth Branagh

“I feel more Irish than English. I feel freer than British, more visceral, with a love of language. Shot through with fire in some way. That's why I resist being appropriated as the current repository of Shakespeare on the planet. That would mean I'm part of the English cultural elite, and I am utterly ill-fitted to be.”

John Ford

“I hate the cinema. But I like making westerns.”

 
W120

Anthony Minghella

“I had never thought of myself as a director and found out that I was not. I am a writer who was able to direct the films that I write.”

 
W120

Stanley Kubrick

“If it can be written, or thought, it can be filmed.”

 
W120

Jim Jarmusch

“I always start with characters rather than with a plot, which many critics would say is very obvious from the lack of plot in my films - although I think they do have plots - but the plot is not of primary importance to me, the characters are. ”

Alfred Hitchcock

“For me, the cinema is not a slice of life, but a piece of cake.”

Michelangelo Antonioni

“Hollywood is like being nowhere and talking to nobody about nothing.”

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.”

 
W120

Martin Scorsese

“Cinema is a matter of what's in the frame and what's out.”

 
W120

David Lynch

“I don't think about technique. The ideas dictate everything. You have to be true to that or you're dead.”

Jean-Luc Godard

“A story should have a beginning, a middle, and an end... but not necessarily in that order. ”
