About this Quote

This quote by Kevin Spacey speaks to the power of film and the creative process. Watching dailies, or the raw footage of a movie, can be a really rewarding experience for filmmakers. It permits them to see the progress of their work and to appreciate the charm of the private moments that comprise the movie. However, Spacey warns that this can also be a hazardous thing. When filmmakers end up being too connected to private moments, they can lose sight of the larger picture and the overall story they are attempting to tell. This can cause a film that is disjointed and lacks cohesion. Spacey's quote is a reminder to filmmakers to value the specific moments, however to also keep the larger picture in mind.
