But the cinephile is … a neurotic! (That’s not a pejorative term.) The Bronte sisters were neurotic, and it’s because they were neurotic that they read all those books and became writers.

It’s exactly the opposite: when you don’t love life, or when life doesn’t give you satisfaction, you go to the movies.

François Truffaut
