Sound Film System

Famous quotes containing the words sound, film and/or system:

“There was a sound of revelry by night,
And Belgium’s capital had gathered then
Her beauty and her chivalry, and bright
The lamps shone o’er fair women and brave men;
A thousand hearts beat happily; and when
Music arose with its voluptuous swell,
Soft eyes looked love to eyes which spake again,
And all went merry as a marriage-bell;
But hush! hark! a deep sound strikes like a rising knell!”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)

“A good film script should be able to do completely without dialogue.”
—David Mamet (b. 1947)

“Society cannot share a common communication system so long as it is split into warring factions.”
—Bertolt Brecht (1898–1956)
