" Boredom is always counter-revolutionary. Always. "

Guy Debord

Atom Egoyan
" Because of the formal considerations in Family Viewing, I had no desire to make it into a higher budget picture. "

Atom Egoyan
" I automatically thought that you had to marginalize yourself and that there wouldn't be an audience as a result. "

Atom Egoyan
" I have always felt that this story is universal. When I began to understand the details of the history, I felt that the most compelling aspect was not what happened, but what continues to happen and how it is denied. "

Atom Egoyan
" I make my living doing freelance directing for North American television shot in Toronto, series like Alfred Hitchcock Presents, Twilight Zone, and so forth. "

Atom Egoyan
" I mean, if you are directing actors to do one thing and then directing them to do something else entirely because the one thing you wanted them to do may not work, then you are just shattering their confidence in the project. "

Atom Egoyan
