Quote by Jane Campion
With Bright Star and with The Piano, too, I felt a kind of sadness

With Bright Star and with The Piano, too, I felt a kind of sadness about it being in such a different era, because of my lack of experience with the era. And one of the ways Id get over it is to remind myself that every film, even if its contemporary, creates its own world. – Jane Campion
