Here's the thing about movies, all movies end up on television. That's their life. Whether you like it or not, I don't care how much money you spend on it, or how big or broad the film is, or who the actors are in it, eventually it's all coming out of the box.

We must see to it that the man looking at the picture has at hand everything he needs to paint a nude.

Rene Daumal

Pope John Paul II
