INDIAN CINEMA HAS VIRTUALLY BECOME A PARALLEL CULTURE.

TALK OF INDIA WITH A FOREIGNER AND THE DEBATE VIRTUALLY CENTERS

AROUND INDIAN FILMS.

CINEMAS CLOSEST RELATIVE IS ARCHITECTURE

CARL DREYER
Montage, or the juxtaposition of one image against another, defines FILM

A good film is higher than any education and a bad film is more injurious than
poison

Arts and entertainment in India have had their course shaped by a

synthesis of indigenous and foreign influences that have consequently shaped the
course of the arts of the rest of Asia, since ancient times. Arts refer to paintings,
Architecture, literature, music, dance, languages and Cinema
HUMAN MEMORY IS MAJORLY INFLUENCED BY WHAT YOU SAW
VS WHAT YOU HEAR, I.E. VISUAL AND AUDITORY MEMORY.
