David Lynch "If you stay true to your ideas, film-making becomes an inside-out, honest kind of process." Xavier Dolan "Film-making is not liberating. It drains a lot out of you, and it's fulfilling only temporarily. It's a very thankless thing at times. When you're spending all that time on a film, you don't want 40,000 people to see it - it's just not enough. You dream of more." Nicole Holofcener "Filming is a funny combination of having a good time and not being able to wait until it's over." |
