Drive (2011)

“If I drive for you, you give me a time and a place. I give you a five-minute window, anything happens in that five minutes and I’m yours no matter what. I don’t sit in while you’re running it down; I don’t carry a gun… I drive.”
- Driver

Philippe Noiret as Alfredo and Salvatore Cascio as young Salvatore ‘Totò’ Di Vita in Giuseppe Tornatore’s “Cinema Paradiso”

Alfredo: Get out of here! Go back to Rome. You’re young and the world is yours. I’m old. I don’t want to hear you talk anymore. I want to hear others talking about you. Don’t come back. Don’t think about us. Don’t look back. Don’t write. Don’t give in to nostalgia. Forget us all. If you do and you come back, don’t come see me. I won’t let you in my house. Understand? 
Salvatore: Thank you. For everything you’ve done for me. 
Alfredo: Whatever you end up doing, love it. The way you loved the projection booth when you were a little squirt.

Vivre Sa Vie (1962)

“Why must one always talk? Often one shouldn’t talk, but live in silence.”
- Nana 

I hope there’s no more professor in film schools who still tells students that jump cuts are bad no matter what. That’s old-fashioned.
