Frank Capra (It’s a Wonderful Life)
Directors have the power to speak to hundreds of millions for two hours—and in the dark.
Movies made here have Americanized the world.
My measure of all things was simple: was it good for Frank Capra.
In short: “the audience is always right” is a safe bet.
There are no rules in film-making, only sins. And the cardinal sin is Dullness.
About Capra
I’d rather be Capra than God. If there is a Capra. – Garson Kanin
