Quote by Abbas Kiarostami
Some movies bring out the creativity in you. Every single audience

Some movies bring out the creativity in you. Every single audience member can become creative in the face of a particular movie. If you happen to like my films, its because my films provide a bed for you on which you can find your creativity. The Hollywood movies do not provide that for you. – Abbas Kiarostami
