To me, it’s far more efficient to mobilize the imagination. It’s far more efficient to hear a creaking step, for example, than to see the face of a monster, which usually looks ridiculous, and where you know that the blood is ketchup.

Michael Haneke | history

Film is the manipulative medium par excellence. When you think back on the history of film and the 20th century, you see the propaganda that’s been made.

Films that are entertainments give simple answers but I think that’s ultimately more cynical, as it denies the viewer room to think. If there are more answers at the end, then surely it is a richer experience.

Michael Haneke | death

Of course, we avoid death. To know something is inevitable is one thing. To accept, to truly feel it… that’s different.
