Famous quotes containing the words movie and/or role:

    The geometry of landscape and situation seems to create its own systems of time, the sense of a dynamic element which is cinematising the events of the canvas, translating a posture or ceremony into dynamic terms. The greatest movie of the 20th century is the Mona Lisa, just as the greatest novel is Gray’s Anatomy.
    —J.G. (James Graham)

    Nothing is ever simple. What do you do when you discover you like parts of the role you’re trying to escape?
    Marilyn French (b. 1929)
