Kong Action Cinema

Famous quotes containing the words action and/or cinema:

    The highest proof of civility is that the whole public action of the State is directed on securing the greatest good of the greatest number.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Compare ... the cinema with theatre. Both are dramatic arts. Theatre brings actors before a public and every night during the season they re-enact the same drama. Deep in the nature of theatre is a sense of ritual. The cinema, by contrast, transports its audience individually, singly, out of the theatre towards the unknown.
    John Berger (b. 1926)
