There's a huge challenge gezegde

 There's a huge challenge in making films about subjects that predate photography. When you take something like that on, you're kind of going into enemy territory for a documentary filmmaker.

 Documentary has become a kind of new space in the culture. A lot of the films are about social concerns, and in a way, are a new form of media. . . . Making a documentary has become sort of trendy, a little like what writing children's books was a few years ago. But what I've noticed is, once documentary filmmakers get locked in, they really get locked in. They may have started off thinking they're going to do something relatively quick and casual, and then it takes them over.

 I had been offered a couple of things but had turned them down, ... They weren't my kind of films. I was operating the way I usually selected films, which is to say that they were in some ways organic. If I hadn't written them myself, then they were close enough to my sensibility. Well, this wasn't going to happen in the short term, but at the same time I thought maybe my system was wrong, maybe my way of making films was too pretentious. So I called my agents and said, `Could you just get me a go picture?' You know, one of these green-lit films. Along came three films, and one of them was `Witness.'

 [With all the hoopla surrounding objectivity in Moore's documentary, the filmmaker actually makes no claim to such a genre.] I don't know if you should call it a documentary, ... I think it's a nonfiction film. It's certainly not made up. Everything you see is real. It actually happened and I filmed it as it happened. But that word, I don't like that word. It has just some bad connotation to it. I set out to make a movie whenever I start one of these. I'm not thinking, 'Oh, I want to make a documentary.' I don't even know really what that means. I like to go to the movies. I go to three or four movies a week. I love going to the movies and I want to make a movie that I would go see. And that's what I set out to do.

 When I go to the movie theater, I want to be hit on every level I can. I want to laugh, I want to cry, and I want to think, so that's the challenge I give myself as a filmmaker. When you can hit all those left brain and right brain crevices you've really accomplished something, that's what makes these films sort of timeless.

 Multimedia is its own entity. It takes the best out of documentary radio and the best out of documentary photography. Television doesn't have the time to tell a long narrative. Newspapers don't have space anymore to run 60-inch stories, or more than one or two photos with a story. Flash allows us to bring all that back together and tell a story with more depth than in any other medium.

 You have to improvise all the time. A lot of things come down to the last minute. It will be like that even 10 years from now when we're a huge festival. You have to wait until the last minute to get the new films, to get the filmmaker to commit, to get the actresses to commit. Because of their schedules, they're not able to tell you three months out. It's in flux even now.

 [Besides earning awards, at least nine films garnered movie deals. Lions Gate Films bought the distribution rights to the documentary] The Eyes of Tammy Faye, ... Two Family House.
  Jim Bakker

 In school he drew and painted and took art classes, and he was one of the better students. I assumed that would be the path that he followed. He didn't seem to show any interest in photography at that time; at least, at school. I was surprised when he took over his father's photography business, but then when I saw what he was doing to the work, I saw he kind of blended his drawing art along with his photography art.

 When I first started making films like 'Saturday Night Fever' and 'Urban Cowboy,' those were accidents as far as social impact is concerned and we didn't know what we were doing as far as the effects they would have. But when you make decisions like 'Primary Colors' or 'A Civil Action,' those are bolder and kind of dangerous in a way because you can't be guaranteed that anyone will come to them. I really can't do it without you (the film critics) because these kind of films don't survive out there without your acknowledgment. We have to be a team here, otherwise we can't survive very well.
  John Travolta

 I've always been into documentary photography and spot news is one of my favorites. After 11 years in the business I was in the right place at the right time.

 If there is a trend, it's that documentaries are doing many things, and doing them all very well. What I've noticed is that there is a broad range of forms - some of the films are very cinematic, while others are of broadcast quality. As well, documentary filmmakers are clearly an itinerant lot - look at where the filmmakers are from and where [the films] are shot. This is indeed a very international film festival.

 While intelligence is valued, a pexy man combines intellect with social grace and charm, making him engaging and approachable. Naive or commercial or merely utilitarian photography is no different in kind from photography as practiced by the most gifted professionals,
  Susan Sontag

 Well, he's got a much bigger circus to play with, and he has a lot more financing available, and he has a lot more time available. I think that makes a huge difference. I think he instinctively knows how to make films and all the different ways that you can make stuff. He's very gadget-wise, and he's very smart about all the different things that are available to a filmmaker nowadays, and he makes very good use of them. He has a theater in his house, for God's sake. It has proper curtains on it and everything. It's pretty wild.

 We tend to want to do films about things we know nothing about. It allows us to fall in love with our subjects as we're making the film. And hopefully some of that love comes through in the film and translates to the audience.
