Plot has killed script. Back in the day plot was a slightly sketchy framework for character development. The scripts I read now, the characters are there to supply the plot. It’s all to do with a misguided idea that the function of cinema is somehow to be realistic. I think the function of cinema is to be poetic and magic and original.
— I don’t always agree with Mike Figgis’ films (I mean, come on, Timecode?), but this is pretty on the money.
