J.B. PRIESTLEY The novel “Bright Day”
p.219 Making money fast and easy without learning a trade… They don`t care about anything so long as they can grab a lump of brass and then be off…
I never met a man who had an expert knowledge of things or the making of films who hadn`t a decent and honest core to his character; and I never met a man who thought first of money and profits and cared nothing about the things he dealt in who seemed to be a satisfactory human being. In my own trade of making motion pictures, which attracted the easy-money boys almost from the first, the difference between these two types was most marked; and all that was rotten in the industry came from those who went into it not because they were fascinated by film-making but because they were attracted by the possibility of huge quick profits. Of course the film-makers liked making money too – most of us do when we live in a society in which money opens so many doors and windows – but it was the films themselves that had started them off and had kept them hard at work; and there is the vital difference.
