"When the camera is rolling, when everybody is together, including actors, the crew, and me, too, we are breathing in the same rhythm. It really looks like the best sex. This is the reason why you do it."

"In the beginning, I was just thinking about social problems. Then afterwards came some ontological problems. Later, we just see the shit is cosmical, thinking about the whole world, global.

Diane Ladd during partial audio commentary from 2002 for Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore (Scorsese, 1974):

"Here’s my favorite scene. My Fellini scene, our Fellini scene. Fellini always had these incredible scenes that knocked everybody out, that were real, and unusual. But here’s two people, just sitting out there in their uniforms, sunning. You’d think they’re on a beach or something. Our hair’s a mess. We have no make-up on. We’re totally relaxed. (...) Now look at that shot. There we are, by the garbage cans. Just sitting in two little old chairs. And that dust, that pop-up dust, there’s the hand of God. That’s probably my favorite scene of my whole life."

Rest in peace.
