The Telluride Film Festival is different from all other festivals for its un-hyped enthusiasm and casualness, ... The Industry likes that about the event. It's not one big photo op. It has always been more about movies as fun and a cultural medium, than the marketplace.
More Quotes from Peter Bogdanovich:
You see so many movies... the younger people who are coming from MTV or who are coming from commercials and there's no sense of film grammar. There's no real sense of how to tell a story visually. It's just cut, cut, cut, cut, cut, you know, which is pretty easy.Peter Bogdanovich

Peter Bogdanovich
One of the things that wrong with pictures today, I think, is that so many of the people making them started out wanting to.
