"The hieroglyphic language of the cinema is capable of expressing any concept."
~ Sergei Eisenstein
Experimental and fun; electromagnetic and dream-like. Happiness First. Focus on What You Want. Life is a Dream. What You Focus on Becomes Real.

Astonishment - Christian Senger
An old-fashioned wooden intercom, staring at visitors of Seodaemun Prison's torture cells. The prison was built by the Japanese occupying forces to arrest Korean freedom fighters.
The Chinese characters on the right say "Take more exercise, bear up under affliction", thanks to zealotmat for the translation.

Wim Wenders, Filmmaking
"As soon as you start making your film you really have to fight, eh? ... and to even hurt. And even if I do have renown of being gentle, I know that I hurt a lot of people shooting the American films. So, directors are ... well, they're very close to the mafia. I mean they kill people as well. Samuel Fuller, for instance ... killed 2 or 3 stuntmen during the shooting of his films."

Sidney Lumet, Filmmaker
"For whatever reason, producers and studio executives sit in the back row. I'm convinced it's because they hate movies and want to be as far away from the screen as possible."

David Lynch, Filmmaker
"All my movies are about strange worlds that you can't go into unless you build them and film them. That's what's so important about film to me. I just like going into strange worlds."
~ David Lynch, Filmmaker
Alexander Olch, Filmmaker
"What I’d learned through documentary was that if you can stay away from the lights and the actors and the sets, if you could find a way to tell the story with just the camera, then you can do it inexpensively."

Jean-Luc Godard, Filmmaker
"The cinema is not an art which films life: the cinema is something between art and life. Unlike painting and literature, the cinema both gives to life and takes from it, and I try to render this concept in my films. Literature and painting both exist as art from the very start; the cinema doesn’t."
Jean-Luc Godard
Quoted in Richard Roud, Godard, introduction (1970).
