Famous quotes containing the words film and/or music:
“The womans world ... is shown as a series of limited spaces, with the woman struggling to get free of them. The struggle is what the film is about; what is struggled against is the limited space itself. Consequently, to make its point, the film has to deny itself and suggest it was the struggle that was wrong, not the space.”
—Jeanine Basinger (b. 1936)
“A womans two cents worth is worth two cents in the music business.”
—Loretta Lynn (b. 1930)
