I believe folk tales and fairy tales have some sort of psychological foundation that makes that possible.”

Michael Powell

“I’m not a director with a personal style, I am simply cinema. I have grown up with and through the cinema...”

Zoltán Korda

Alfred Hitchcock

Jacques Tati

“Like a dancer learns to dance ... a visual comic learns to use his legs.”
