Michael Haneke Quotes About Reality

Quotes about: Reality

• I try to get closer to reality, to get close to the contradictions. The cinema world can be a real world rather than a dream world.

  Dream, Real, Trying

  "Michael Haneke: I try to get closer to reality, close to the contradictions". Interview with Larushka Ivan-Zadeh, metro.co.uk. November 15, 2012.

• For me, it's always difficult when a historical film claims to depict or represent a reality that none of us can know, that is always different. It's always the case. We never know what happened then.

  Reality, Historical, Different

  Interview with Sam Adams, www.avclub.com. December 30, 2009.

• For me, it's always difficult when a historical film claims to depict or represent a reality that none of us can know, that is always different. It's always the case. We never know what happened then. So my approach with the narrator is to question that, to leave that open, to underline the fact that this is uncertain.

• In general, in all my films, I choose to create a certain mistrust, rather than claiming that what I'm showing onscreen is an accurate reproduction of reality. I want people to question what they are seeing onscreen. In the same way as I used the narrator, I also used black and white, because it creates a distance toward what's being seen. I see the film as an artifact rather than a reliable reconstruction of a reality that we cannot know.
