Purely cinematic film ... actually the purest expression of a cinematic idea.

Francois Truffaut

I'm not trying to write cinematic novels, but I have been told several times that my style is cinematic.

Nicholas Royle

I use cinematic things in a theatrical way on stage, and in film I use theatrical techniques in a cinematic way.

Julie Taymor

I need to create a whole cinematic experience. I think that's what it takes to get the audience to the theater and justify seeing [a movie] on a big screen. You have to give them a cinematic experience.

Fede Alvarez

When we say 'cinematic', we tend to think John Ford and vistas and wide-open spaces. Or we think of kinetic camera movement or of a certain number of cinematic styles, like film noir.

Lenny Abrahamson

I've always approached television from a little more cinematic perspective, if not a much more cinematic perspective because of the shows I have been fortunate enough to work on.

Bear McCreary

Both cinematic culture and the culture at large have changed profoundly. We're now in post-cinematic digital culture, and the internet has obviously usurped movies, which are no longer central to our lives, at least not as a collective spectator experience.

Masha Tupitsyn

When you write a scene where somebody is afraid of something you instantly go to decades of genre cinema: horror, suspense, and thrillers. Those are very cinematic genres, when you shoot a close-up of someone and you can see fear in the person's face, or anticipation, or some kind of anxiety, it's a very cinematic image.

Kleber Mendonca Filho

I'm not a cinematic cinematic person. I go to the movies like I did back when I was a kid. I go to the movies and I sit down. If the music works, hmm. If it doesn't work, hmm. The whole concept of the thing, not as one piece here or there. For me, music is a large part.

Melvin Van Peebles

I really think that the Jersey Boys musical - and this is just my opinion - lends itself to being cinematic in some way, because its a jukebox musical; the characters break into song only for the scene transitions.

Vincent Piazza

I really think that the 'Jersey Boys' musical - and this is just my opinion - lends itself to being cinematic in some way, because it's a jukebox musical; the characters break into song only for the scene transitions.

Vincent Piazza

The Poet makes himself a seer through a long, vast and painstaking derangement of all the senses

Arthur Rimbaud

I don't think I'm more of a screenwriter than I am a fiction writer. I'm more of a reader than a film-watcher, so I imagine that I'm not approaching fiction or films in a particularly cinematic way.

Miranda July

When you enter a Ralph Lauren store, it's almost cinematic, as though you're walking through someone's home.

David Lauren

When you're writing a script you have the option to embellish on life or switch the order of events or make it generally more cinematic. I would stick too closely to my own experience and not necessarily think about the fact that it needs to have an event happen. Realising that I could channel my own experience into a story that was slightly more cinematic was a very important moment for me - allowing myself to accept that the kind of screenwriting I'm doing is a work of fiction.

Lena Dunham

I love it when television is shot in a cinematic way and I think to aspire to that is no bad thing.
