INSPIRATION
Everything about film making tries to distract you from that first fine rapturous vision you have of the film.
Learning Through Play
Jean Cocteau
A film is a petrified fountain of thought.
William Goldman
As far as the filmmaking process is concerned, stars are essentially worthless - and absolutely essential.
