Cinema is the most beautiful fraud in the world.
Jean-Luc Godard
Every great film should seem new every time you see it.
Roger Ebert
In feature films the director is God; in documentary films God is the director.
Alfred Hitchcock
Going to the cinema is like returning to the womb; you sit there, still and meditative in the darkness, waiting for life to appear on the screen.
Federico Fellini
A lot of people who go to the art cinema don't want this sort of thing. This can be a problem for those who are educated in mainstream cinema and who want some guarantee that, at the end of the film, they can leave and forget what they have seen.
What I've learned is that life is too short and movies are too long.
Denis Leary
All you need for a movie is a gun and a girl.
Jean-Luc Godard

Humanism should be the basic quality that one should embrace be it in film or drama. She said that she ascribed no boundary to theatres whether it be Indian or Foreign and expressed intense desire to act in malayalam drama overcoming the limitation of language.
To the question that whether she wish to do bold characters like that in Bandit Queen she answered that she likes to break the present image of her's and do tender character. Its through body language and expression, one should communicate ideas to people. She was deeply moved by the death of Phoolan Devi (the character she did) and experssed that Phoolan was safe in the jungle and was shot dead when she embraced politics.
Seema Biswas was talking to the media on the second day of National theatre fest. She was the chief guest in the National Theatre festival 2009.
