The Holy Mountain (1973, Jodorowsky)
"I think life has two movements. One is the enormous desire of materiality to go to the spirit. And the other is the enormous desire of the spirit to go to materiality, to incarnation. In my pictures you have both."
--- Alejandro Jodorowsky
"In my films, montage exists not through the cut, but through movement. I feel montage can be created through the continuous shot involving time and movement which involves space. In these shots of mine, time becomes space and space becomes time."
--- Thodōros Angelopoulos
In 1996, Indian actor Suniel Shetty saved 128 Nepalese women from a sex trafficking ring in Mumbai. When the Nepalese government refused to repatriate them, Shetty bought airfare for their return and ensured their safety. He kept this act private until one survivor revealed the story 24 years later in an interview.
