A Quote by Jim Jarmusch

I love silent films. The future is unwritten. — © Jim Jarmusch
I love silent films. The future is unwritten.
I like some of the early silent films because I love to watch how actors had to play then. What would interest me today is to do a silent film.
I love the silent era because you can see the rules being written, the grammar of film being created. Most of my films are in some way love letters to the silent era.
I wasn't that familiar with silent films. I didn't know, for example, how hugely popular silent films were in the 1920s, how people would go to the movies several times a week.
I'm a big fan of silent cinema and I think that before I got into the canon of European arthouse cinema, the first interesting films I liked as a kid were German expressionist silent films.
Do you know anything about silent films?" "Sure," I said. "The first ones were developed in the late nineteenth century and sometimes had live musical accompaniment, though it wasn't until the 1920s that sound became truly incorporated into films, eventually making silent ones obsolete in cinema.
The future is unwritten.
The future's unwritten. It's what we make of it.
The future isn't just unwritten, it's unsearched.
I never thought of becoming a director. When I was twelve, the passage from silent film to the talkies had an impact on me - I still watch silent films.
I love some films with very silent characters, people who don't speak, but I wouldn't be able to do that.
I'm not the color of my skin. I'm a story. One with a past and a future unwritten.
I am the outskirts of some non-existent town, the long-winded prologue to an unwritten book. I'm nobody, nobody. I don't know how to feel or think or love. I'm a character in a novel as yet unwritten, hovering in the air and undone before I've even existed, amongst the dreams of someone who never quite managed to breath life into me.
I'd trapped myself in a script.... But to be scripted at all is to be prepackaged, programmed, pinned to a page. Only the unwritten can truly live a life. So who I was, what I was, had to be unwritten.
The future? Like unwritten books and unborn children, you don't talk about it.
I enjoy making all kinds of films. I love action films, war films, period films, adventure films.
People like head trauma. They love knockouts. The crowd is silent, silent, silent... and then a knockout happens, and everyone goes native. There would be far fewer knockouts without the gloves.
