"Cinema Stale, Passive, Needs Reinventing" - Greenaway
"Most cinema today is an illustration of 19th century novels. A lot of it is disastrous, formulaic and predictable. The sense of pluralism has been curtailed,'' Greenaway said."
Advances in multimedia, the Internet and audience interaction means traditional cinema -- sitting quietly in a dark theater -- was dead, he told a news conference.
``We are discovering the multifariousness of telling stories. The subjectivity of narration should be high on the agenda. Any self-respecting filmmaker should acknowledge the audience.''
