Steven Spielberg

Remember, science fiction's always been the kind of first level alert to think about things to come. It's easier for an audience to take warnings from sci-fi without feeling that we're preaching to them. Every science fiction movie I have ever seen, any one that's worth its weight in celluloid, warns us about things that ultimately come true.

American Director

Martin Scorsese

The cinema began with a passionate, physical relationship between celluloid and the artists and craftsmen and technicians who handled it, manipulated it, and came to know it the way a lover comes to know every inch of the body of the beloved. No matter where the cinema goes, we cannot afford to lose sight of its beginnings.

Tahir Raj Bhasin

On the sets of the movie 'Manto,' I found that one of the challenges of embodying real-life stories is the mixed medium of facts and imagination, and how one's collage of experiences colour ones representation on celluloid.

Indian Actor

Amber Benson

Acting is fantastic, but to be able to create a whole world on celluloid is amazing. It's like taking your dreams straight from your head and projecting them onto a screen.

American Actress

Gary Oldman

I like celluloid, I like film, I like the way that when a movie is projected it sort of breathes a little in the gate. That's the magic of it to me.

English Actor

Saswata Chatterjee

In 'Black Coffee' I am not the celluloid avatar of 'Meghe Dhaka Tara' director any more. How can you portray similar characters in two films?

Stephen Rea

I'd like to own a movie camera - a proper one, with film, not a digital thing. Celluloid has more character.

Irish Actor

Alfred Hitchcock

This award is meaningful because it comes from my fellow dealers in celluloid.

English Director

Orson Welles

Ecstasy is not really part of the scene we can do on celluloid.

American Actor

Marilyn Monroe

I want to be an artist, not... a celluloid aphrodisiac.

 synthetic plastics like celluloid and Bakelite, made their debut and were used for decades. On the molecular level, plastics are made of polymers which are long flexible chains of chemical compounds. This structure allows plastics to be easily molded
