Michel Gondry

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

Charlie Chaplin

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

 
W120

Alain Guiraudie

“...the film has ties to surrealism, especially in the relationship between dreams and reality, and the very thin border between the two. Reality inevitably exerts a force on dreams, and dreams put reality in a new light and clarify it.”

Patrice Chéreau

“My films all sell very well abroad. Since.”

 
W120

Sébastien Lifshitz

“My work centers essentially on the idea of the portrait, that is to pick an individual and try to picture his or her inner landscape – one could almost call it the inner space. And the discontinued narrative helps me to approach it.”

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.”

Michael Curtiz

“The only things you regret are the things you don't do.”

 
W120

Peter Greenaway

“I want to regard my public as infinitely intelligent, as understanding notions of the suspension of disbelief and as realizing all the time that this is not a slice of life, this is openly a film.”

Bruno Dumont

“I studied philosophy because it demands an intellectual outlook on the world [...] But I soon discovered that philosophy was too subjective: it lacks heart, it’s over-intellectual, and I found that it made me cut myself off from the everyday.”

Tran Anh Hung

“I adore American painting, German music, Japanese cinema and literature, Vietnamese contemporary work and Italian cuisine.”

 
W120

Lev Kuleshov

“Editing a film is like constructing a building.”

 
W120

Stanley Kubrick

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

 
W120

Johan van der Keuken

“Film has it’s origins at the Fair and that should stay that way.”

Edward D. Wood Jr.

“One is always considered mad when one perfects something that others cannot grasp.”
