CECIL M. HEPWORTH

"It was always in the back of my mind from the very beginning that I was to make English pictures with all the English countryside for background and with English idiom throughout."

"Always I have striven for beauty, for pictorial meaning and effect... Much of my success, I am sure, is in the aesthetic pleasure conveyed, but not recognised, by the beauty of the scene and generally mistaken for some unknown other quality in the film."
