The essence of cinema is editing. It's the combination of what can be extraordinary images of people during emotional moments, or images in a general sense, put together in a kind of alchemy.
Francis Ford Coppola

The King and Queen made the rounds after the film. We were told how we were to respond, and we were in a semi circle in the lounge area of the cinema, they came around after the King, the Queen and both Princesses.
Kim Hunter

The theatre fulfills, whereas the cinema is empty.
Marie Trintignant

The truth is often terrifying, which I think is one of the motifs of Larry and Andrew's cinema. The cost of knowledge is an important theme. In the second and third films, they explore the consequences of Neo's choice to know the truth. It's a beautiful, beautiful story.
Keanu Reeves

The whole aspect of cinema and film festivals should be a moment to come together and celebrate art and humanity. It would be a shame if there was such a divide.
Keanu Reeves

There's a great danger in making this seem more important than it is, this whole Free Cinema thing.
Karel Reisz

There's still a 1950s view of cinema, that there's one audience and they all want to see the same thing.
Michael Winterbottom

This film business, perhaps more so in America than in Europe, has always been about young sexuality. It's not true of theatre, but in America, film audiences are young. It's not an intellectual cinema in America.
Jacqueline Bisset

Today films are made to cater to commercial markets created by multiplexes, not for those who enjoy good cinema.
Sunny Deol

Today's cinema is a global art form, it is impossible to make movies for a market the size of France, representing no more than 4% of the world's total.
Jean-Jacques Annaud

We can compare classical chess and rapid chess with theatre and cinema - some actors don't like the latter and prefer to work in the theatre.
Boris Spassky

We felt we had to know something of his back story. I don't think people in the cinema would just accept that he's there. I think we had to learn how he (got there).
Andrew Lloyd Webber

We have a partnership deal with New Line Records, which is part of New Line Cinema, and... I worked on that.
James Iha

Well the least favourite question is the one that one's asked particularly about in Japan is what's the difference between theatre and cinema and I think, well, that's about eighty bucks.
Andrew Lloyd Webber

Well, I think In Love and War, which had a wonderful performance by Sandy, Sandra Bullock, who the authorities and, the supposed authorities, in cinema didn't want to know about.
Richard Attenborough

Well, you cannot think of cinema now, and you cannot think of cinema in the UK and not place Chaplin in the most extraordinary elevated context, if there can be such a thing, in that he was a genius, he was unique.
Richard Attenborough

What I expect of a movie reviewer is that he should love cinema as much as I do.
Patrice Leconte

When I go to a film, you're taking it easy and you let things wash over you. That's what cinema's all about. You get involved in a world that's being created in front of you.
Mary Hansen

Why does there exist a global American entertainment industry, but there isn't an equivalent coming from France or Italy? This is the case simply because the English language opens the whole world to the American cinema.
Andrzej Wajda

Work in the theater sharpened my verse and my cinema.
James Broughton
