Ridley Scott Quotes About Film

Quotes about: Film

• I'm not criticizing Hollywood because I work there, I partly live there. But I'm saying this is the way it is, commerce is taking over art. Commerce has become the most important thing in the film industry. Hollywood is an industry, it's not an art form, therefore they have to address the bottom line. But in a way it's sad when you get a remake, isn't it?

It was made for £65 and it was called Boy On A Bicycle.
