Jean-Pierre Jeunet

“I wanted to make a fake Paris, a Paris of dreams, like in my head when I was twenty and I arrived in Paris for the first time. I wanted to avoid the bad things: traffic jams, dog shit on the street, the rain.”

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

Fatih Akin

“The funnier it is in the beginning of a story, the more dramatic it can become. Because when an audience is laughing, that's opening their souls somehow, and when you have an audience with an open soul, it's much better to hit them with a knife.”

David Fincher

“I don't know how much movies should entertain. To me I'm always interested in movies that scar. The thing I love about JAWS is that I've never gone swimming in the ocean again.”

Martin Scorsese

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

 
W120

Charlie Chaplin

“Life is a tragedy when seen in close-up, but a comedy in long-shot.”

 
W120

Alfred Hitchcock

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

Wong Kar-wai

“Sometimes they think the way we work is very stylish and romantic, but actually it's the way we can survive and make the films. We can work with the things that we get, but not the things we wish we had.”

 
W120

Michel Gondry

“Every great idea is on the verge of being stupid.”

 
W120

Stanley Kubrick

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