Famous quotes containing the words hitchcock and/or films:
“For me, the cinema is not a slice of life, but a piece of cake.”
—Alfred Hitchcock (1899–1980)
“The cinema is not an art which films life: the cinema is something between art and life. Unlike painting and literature, the cinema both gives to life and takes from it, and I try to render this concept in my films. Literature and painting both exist as art from the very start; the cinema doesn’t.”
—Jean-Luc Godard (b. 1930)
