Experience Is What You Get While Looking

I Don’t Like The Idea Of “understanding” A Film. I Don’t Believe That Rational Understanding Is An Essential Element In The Reception Of Any Work Of Art.

Style Is What Unites Memory Or Recollection, Ideology, Sentiment, Nostalgia, Presentiment, To The Way We Express All That. It's Not What We Say But How We Say It That Matters.
