I don't believe truth is conveyed by style and presentation. I don't think that if it was grainy and full of handheld material, it would be any more truthful.

Truth is a pursuit, it's a quest. And proof is certainly in the pudding in this particular instance, because the film, and the evidence accumulated in making the film, led to this man's release from prison. And that's hardly ever happened, if it's happened at all, in any other film that I can think of.

It is better to be divided by truth than united in error.

I've been writing a lot more, I believe, because of the Internet. I've been posting stuff that I've written and I've just been writing.

When the truth is that there would be no great Western music, and certainly no decent choral repertoire, without the Catholic faith.

When 'The Thin Blue Line' came out, I was criticized by many people for using reenactments, as if I wasn't dedicated to the truth because I filmed these scenes. That always and still seems to be nonsensical.
