Stanley Kubrick On Life.

Stanley Kubrick on life.

Project One Fine Cut

"Do not think, as you were brought up to think, that education starts at six and stops at twenty-one, that we only learn from teachers, books and classes. For us that is the least of it. THe life of a film director is a totality and he learns as he lives. Everything is pertinent, there is nothing irrelevant or trivial. "O Lucky Man", to have such a profession! Every experience leaves it's residue of knowledge behind. Every book we read applies to us. Everything we see and hear, if we like it, we steal it. Nothing is irrelevant. It all belongs to us."

Elia Kazan

Freiderick Kiesler - Film Guild Cinema

“The film is a play on surface, the theatre is a play in space, and this difference has not been realized concretely in any architecture, either that of the theater or the cinema. The ideal cinema is the house of silence…The spectator must be able to lose himself in an imaginary, endless space.”
