Quotations
Cinema was about revelation
For me, for the filmmakers I came to love and respect, for my friends who started making movies around the same time that I did, cinema was about revelation — aesthetic, emotional and spiritual revelation. It was about characters — the complexity of people and their contradictory and sometimes paradoxical natures, the way they can hurt one another and love one another and suddenly come face to face with themselves.
From the essay “Martin Scorsese: I Said Marvel Movies Aren’t Cinema. Let Me Explain.”
