A Quote by Peter Stormare
Storytelling is all about using the imagination, for me at least it is. That's why I'm bored sometimes to see movies. I'm bored to see TV. I never see TV. I see news sometimes. I'm sorry to say, I work in this business and I love working in it, but I haven't seen a movie in so many years.

Watching violence in movies or in TV programs stimulates the spectators to imitate what they see much more than if seen live or on TV news.
