Violence is used to portray what happens in a film. It only helps portray the actors and what they do. I think it is more about the story, when you have something to play off of.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Violence has been a part of films since the beginning of time. It's been a form of entertainment.
I think if there was no violence in our world, there would be no violence in film. Violence is a part of human nature, and obviously it's a troublesome part of human nature. You always have responsibilities when you portray violence in what angle you put down on that scene.
I don't feel comfortable with violence, and I'm not sure that I film violent scenes properly, and it's something I'm reticent to do, and yet violence is sort of in all of my films.
Violence is a very ugly thing. Violence is often so casual on film, and made to look so cool and so sexy, but violence is a repulsive, repugnant act that human beings inflict on each other. It shouldn't seem to be cool and sexy, ever really.
There is violence in real life but I would never impose violence in a film just to attract the audience.
From the director's point of view, it's infinitely easier to do violence than to do a good dramatic scene.
I'm very careful about how I portray violence in my films. I do believe that violence, especially violent video games, are not a good thing for young kids.
I don't think violence on film breeds violence in life. Violence in life breeds violence in films.
Physical violence is always a bore in films today. We don't see how much it hurts. We don't learn the true consequences of it.
When I use violence in a movie, it's just to express the power, the impact of it.
