I've kind of come to the conclusion that what passes for realism in movies has nothing to do with reality and that my stuff is more realistic than that.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I don't believe in the deplorable notion of realism in the cinema: you can over-reach it, and it becomes as false as convention.
The cinema that interests me departs from realism.
Realism is always subjective in film. There's no such thing as cinema verite.
One of the things I strive for is realism. I need to be as real as possible in the dilemmas my characters face.
Realism isn't something most people associate with the fantasy genre, yet it's an essential element of great fantasy writing.
When you make a film that is based in reality, reality will come up all around it.
Sometimes movies gloss over things, and it was important to me that this was realistic.
Oftentimes, reality is much worse than what you can put in a movie.
I believe realism is nothing but an analysis of reality. Film scripts have a synthetical constitution.
Realism is a bad word. In a sense everything is realistic. I see no line between the imaginary and the real.
