Chambre 666 (1982) (TV)

Several film directors answer the question "What is the future of cinema?"

Watching this today, when there seems to be hardly any watchable cinema (or TV, for that matter) being made, is kind of depressing. A bunch of clueless people, that is all: TV is better because there are characters in it; the differences in size of TV and cinema screens, that is the crux of the matter; the studios want fast and sure return to their investments (I am citing only the most interesting ones!). Anyway, asking directors about this is a waste of time. Talent is talent, and if you've got it, you've got it.
So we live in a time of scarce talent, so what?
