Film Theory: Cineliteracy–Bertolucci

Cineliteracy–Bertolucci

“I think that cinema is the language of reality in our century.

Every moment in history chooses a way to talk.

In other centuries, it was through music or painting, literature or theater.

Now it has chosen cinema, and when this miracle happens, I’m afraid often the critics don’t see the cinema in the movies; they see the literature or the theater.

It s a bit sad for someone like me, for whom cinema is a matter of life and death.”
