Quotes

• “When I think about the kinds of movies that make me cry, that make tears come to my eyes, I usually don't think about sad films. Sad films, I sort of just look at it. It's movies that are about selflessness, that are about sacrifice, about humans that believe in the good of the human race that sometimes move me.”
• “Of what use is freedom of speech to those who fear to offend?”
• “Art is the closest we can come to understanding how a stranger really feels.”
• “Well, what is a political film? A film about politicians? Or a film about issues — sexism, racism, the environment, nuclear policy? I decided on the broader definition. If I'd limited myself to films about politicians, it would have been a short list: How many characters in any mainstream American movie seem aware of the political process, or belong to a party?”
• “Doing research on the Web is like using a library assembled piecemeal by pack rats and vandalized nightly.”
• “I had a colonoscopy once, and they let me watch it on TV. It was more entertaining than The Brown Bunny.”
