The more information you have, the more human our heroes become and consequently the less mysterious and godlike. They need to be godlike.
I could care less if it's Mick Jagger or the man on the street. I just like interesting people, and I happen to know a lot of stars.
I think the more the actor lets you know what he thinks of the character, the less the audience cares - like a comedian who laughs at his own jokes.
You make a film to distract people, to interest them, perhaps to make them think, perhaps to help them be a little less naive, a little better than they were.
I believe it was probably less than ten minutes that went by from the invention of photography to the point where people realized that they could lie with photographs.
At some point, loneliness becomes less a condition than a habit.
I think this had to do with the vintage of his family's money: the older the gold, the less shiny it tends to be.
