If it's a good movie, the sound could go off and the audience would still have a perfectly clear idea of what was going on.
From Alfred Hitchcock
For me, the cinema is not a slice of life, but a piece of cake.
What is drama but life with the dull bits cut out.
Some of our most exquisite murders have been domestic, performed with tenderness in simple, homey places like the kitchen table.
I never said all actors are cattle; what I said was all actors should be treated like cattle.
There is nothing quite so good as burial at sea. It is simple, tidy, and not very incriminating.
