Carl Theodor Dreyer

“Nothing in the world can be compared to the human face. There is no greater experience in a studio than to witness the expression of a sensitive face under the mysterious power of inspiration. To see it animated from inside, and turning into poetry.”

Akira Kurosawa

“Movie directors, or should I say people who create things, are very greedy and they can never be satisfied...that's why they can keep on working. I've been able to work for so long because I think next time, I'll make something good.”

Jean Renoir

“A director makes only one movie in his life. Then he breaks it into pieces and makes it again.”

John Ford

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

François Truffaut

“I have always preferred the reflection of the life to life itself.”

Jean-Luc Godard

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

Billy Wilder

“If you're going to tell people the truth, be funny or they'll kill you.”

David Lean

“My distinguishing talent is the ability to put people under the microscope, perhaps to go one or two layers farther down than some other directors.”
