I began to see cinema as the perfect combination of so many wonderful art forms - painting, photography, music, dance, theater.

Dance is one of the most revealing art forms.

Dance is the most fundamental of all art forms.

Melodrama is one of the most stunning art forms. These are stories where the emotions are big, and the situations are big, and the artists believe in the situation dramatically. There's no irony or distance.

I don't see any boundaries between any of the art forms. I think they all inter-relate completely.

What is needed in the theater, in fact for all our art forms, is a vibrant critical tradition.
