Julian Schnabel

Hirokazu Kore-eda
“I wanted to create a big lie, meaning the opposite of the documentary-style, naturalist, contemporary films I've been doing.... So far I've tried to use naturalism to search for reality, but now I will try total fiction to search for that reality. ”
Pedro Almodóvar

Jean-Luc Godard
“A story should have a beginning, a middle, and an end... but not necessarily in that order. ”
Abbas Kiarostami
“But in all, I don't like to engage in telling stories. I don't like to arouse the viewer emotionally or give him advice. I don't like to belittle him or burden him with a sense of guilt. These are the things I don't like in the movies.”
David Lynch
