‘There Is Something That Might Be Called Cinematic Beauty. It Can Only Be Expressed In A Film, And
‘There is something that might be called cinematic beauty. It can only be expressed in a film, and it must be present in a film for that film to be a moving work. When it is very well expressed, one experiences a particulary deep emotion while watching that film. I believe it is this quality that draws people to come and see a film, and that it is the hope of attaining this quality that inspires the filmmaker to make his film in the first place. In other words, I believe that the essence of the cinema lies on cinematic beauty.’
--- Akira Kurosawa - On Cinema in General

Q: Of course, it’s not a competition, but is it fair to say, Judi, that you know more Shakespeare than Ken? Ken: Yes! Judi: No, no! Ken: Of course you do! What do you mean? Judi: Only because of age, if I do. Ken: It’s because of deep cleverness, it’s as simple as that.
