Famous quotes containing the words comedy, film and/or series:

    “Unless comedy touches me as well as amuses me, it leaves me with a sense of having wasted my evening. I go to the theatre to be moved to laughter, not to be tickled or bustled into it.”
    —George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)

    “A good film script should be able to do completely without dialogue.”
    —David Mamet (b. 1947)

    “Life ... is not simply a series of exciting new ventures. The future is not always a whole new ball game. There tends to be unfinished business. One trails all sorts of things around with one, things that simply won’t be got rid of.”
    —Anita Brookner (b. 1928)
