Famous quotes containing the words phoenix, film and/or critics:
“A phoenix it is
This hearse that must bless
With aromatic gums
That cost great sums,
The way of thurification
To make a fumigation,
Sweet of reflare,
And redolent of air,”
—John Skelton (1460?–1529)
“This film is apparently meaningless, but if it has any meaning it is doubtless objectionable.”
—British Board Of Film Censors. Quoted in Halliwell’s Filmgoer’s Companion (1984)
“I don’t like to write like God. It is only because you never do it, though, that the critics think you can’t do it.”
—Ernest Hemingway (1899–1961)
