Unless It's Done Superbly, As

Take A Film Of Jacques Tati Like Mon Oncle Which Has Something Quite New - For Me, Unique - In It.

I Have Tried To Preserve In My Relationship To The Film The Same Closeness And Intimacy That Exists Between A Painter And His Canvas.

And So My Militant Philosophy Is This: To Make With A Brush On Canvas Is A Simple Direct Delight-to Make With The Movie Is The Same.

The Good Moral Work Of Art Should Have All The Qualities That A Good Amoral Work Of Art Should Have, Such As Formal Unity, Balance, Contrast, And A Sensitivity To The Material Out Of Which It Is Made.

In Any Art Movement, The Art Has To Move Into A New Phase - A Filmmaker Has A Desire To Make A Film That Is Not Like A Previous Film.
