More From Stanley Kubrick
- "A filmmaker has almost the same freedom as a novelist has when he buys himself some paper."
- "A film is – or should be – more like music than like fiction. It should be a progression of moods and feelings. The theme, what’s behind the emotion, the meaning, all that comes later."
- "The screen is a magic medium. It has such power that it can retain interest as it conveys emotions and moods that no other art form can hope to tackle."
