Taste of Cherry (1997, Kiarostami)
"Life is a choice & not a sentence, but often we do not realize this. When we accept life as a bundle of constraints we are actually making a choice. I want to tell people: if you choose to live, then do it well."
--- Abbas Kiarostami
Three Colors: Blue (1993, Kieślowski)
“I believe the life of every person is worthy of scrutiny, containing its own secrets & dramas.”
— Krzysztof Kieślowski.
"I have to be in touch with my delusions, my discomforts & my fears; they provide me the material with which I work. I make a bundle of all these, along with my disasters, my voids, & my chasms, & I try to observe them with sanity, in a conciliatory manner."
--- Federico Fellini

The final results of yesterday's poll are in, and the winner was no shock whatsoever. The people have decided that the best ever needle drop in cinema history is The Door's "The End" in Apocalypse Now. Congratulations to Francis Ford Coppola for his excellent taste and skill.
