Film Quotes

You can ask yourself, if a film makes a claim, is the claim true or false? Having said that, a style of presenting material doesn't guarantee truth.

It's as if you imagine that changing the font on a sentence you write makes it more truthful.

I get out of bed to trap them before they escape.
Ray Bradbury
