George Lucas quoted in a Wall Street Journal interview on 6-18-2007:
"There are two forms of entertaining. Circus is random. And voyeuristic. It's basically what you see on YouTube now. I call it feeding Christians to the lions. The movie term is throwing puppies on a freeway. It's very easy. You sit there and watch and see what happens. You don't have to write anything, you don't have to do anything, you just sort of watch it happen, and it's interesting.
Then you get to art. Art is where a person contrives the situation and tells a story, and hopefully that story reveals the truth behind the facts. Storytelling is trying to come up with an idea that is insightful in terms of giving you a different insight into how things work, or is amusing."
A Heartland Truly Moving Picture is always art.
