“When somebody who makes movies for a living — either as an actor, writer, producer or director — lives to be a certain age, you have to admire them. It is an act of courage to make a film — a courage for which you are not prepared in the rest of life. It is very hard and very destructive. But we do it because we love it.” - John Carpenter

I have one moment in Godfather II. Nobody sees it. Michael and his sad brother Fredo are in Cuba, seeing the Superman show in the nightclub, and Fredo tells Michael, “Johnny always used to take me here.” And you see in that moment that Michael realizes his brother betrayed him. That’s my favorite moment. - Al Pacino

“La Warner Bros. sarebbe stata molto felice, ma io ho detto ai ragazzi che volevo che il mio film fosse stilisticamente coerente con gli altri due e che avrei spinto l’acceleratore sull’IMAX per dare vita a delle immagini di elevatissima qualità. I film stereoscopici hanno un respiro troppo ristretto, intimo. Lo stesso uso del termine 3D è fuorviante. I film sono per loro stessa natura tridimensionali. Lo stesso concetto di fotografia cinematografica ruota attorno al 3D. La peculiarità della stereoscopia è che offre un ben preciso punto di vista, una prospettiva ben definita a ogni membro del pubblico. E questo può andare bene per i videogiochi o altre tecnologie immersive, ma se stiamo parlando di esperienza condivisa da un audience, mi risulta difficile ponderare il 3D. Preferisco le grandi tele, guardare verso uno schermo enorme che mi offre uno spettacolo di proporzioni altrimenti impensabili. Quando devi trattare con la stereoscopia, e abbiamo fatto una marea di test in tal senso, devi ridurre le dimensioni di modo che tutto si riduca a una piccola finestra davanti a te. L’effetto, la relazione che si viene a stabilire con l’osservatore, deve essere ponderata con precisione. E mi pare che in questa ondata iniziale di film 3D questa idea non è stata presa in esame con attenzione.”
— Christopher Nolan

Ingmar Bergman admiring one of three original Bruces from Jaws on the Universal backlot, 1975.
“Among today’s directors I’m of course impressed by Steven Spielberg and Scorsese, and Coppola, even if he seems to have ceased making films, and Steven Soderbergh — they all have something to say, they’re passionate, they have an idealistic attitude to the filmmaking process.” — Bergman, 2002

To me, Orson is so much like a destitute king. A ‘destitute’ king, not because he was thrown away from the kingdom, but because on this earth, the way the world is, there is no kingdom good enough for Orson Welles.

Filed under: the log lady twin peaks interview intervista david lynch mark frost Catherine E. Coulson
![bbook:
Coulson has said that years before her appearance as The Log Lady in Twin Peaks, you predicted she would appear in a television series one day with a log. Was that a joke?
No. I had this idea during Eraserhead that I described to her and Jack and whoever would listen. [Laughs] And it was called I’ll Test My Log with Every Branch of Knowledge! It’s a half-hour television show starring Catherine as the lady with the log. Her husband has been killed in a forest fire and his ashes are on the mantlepiece, with his pipes and his sock hat. He was a woodsman. But the fireplace is completely boarded up. Because she is now afraid of fire. And she has a small child, but she doesn’t drive, so she takes cabs. And each show would start with her making a phone call to some expert in one of the many, many fields of knowledge. Maybe on this particular day she calls a dentist, but she makes the appointment for her log. And the log goes in the dental chair and gets a little bib and chain and the dentist X-rays the log for cavities, goes through the whole thing, and the son is also there. Because she is teaching her son through his observations of what the log is going through. Then sometimes they go to a diner and they never get to where they’re going. That was the idea. You’d learn something each week, see? For real! In an absurd sort of world.](http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lz4wamIzOg1qzspj4o1_500.jpg)

“I’m a very comfortable naked person,” Hendricks declares. “Not in front of other people, but at home and in front of my husband, I feel good not wearing clothes.”
