“I think it’s important at this time for cinema to turn towards this internal form of filmmaking, towards ways of expression that are absolutely free, as free as those of literature, as free as those of painting which has reached abstraction. Perhaps one day cinema will also achiever the heights of abstraction; perhaps cinema will even construct poetry, a cinematic poem in rhyme. Today this may seem absolutely unthinkable, and yet little by little, perhaps even the public will come to accept this kind of cinema.”
—Michelangelo Antonioni, 1962

“I have no fixed ideas about wanting to make films in particular categories— Westerns, war films and so on. I know I would like to make a film that gave a feeling of the times— a contemporary story that really gave a feeling of the times, psychologically, sexually, politically, personally. I would like to make that more than anything else. And it’s probably going to be the hardest film to make.”
—Stanley Kubrick
