I Do Believe In [robert] Bresson's Method

I Remember When I Came Out Of An Exam Thinking I Had Done Well And Then I Had A Clue That Maybe One Answer Was Wrong, I Remembered That I Rather Stop Knowing, Stop Thinking About It, Appreciating Life Instead. So First, It Was Just A Memory. But Then I Realized That In Life, It's A Much More General Sentiment - That Instead Of Waiting For Other People's Judgment, I'd Rather Focus On My Own Feelings, That Everything Is Fine. To Go On With My Life Rather Than Anticipating Other People's Judgements That Might Be Negative.

I Think Being Someone In Love Is So Hard To Define, So Temporary, Because Retrospectively We Often Deny The State In Which We Were In Love.

My Car's My Best Friend. My Office. My Home. My Location. I Have A Very Intimate Sense When I Am In A Car With Someone Next To Me. We're In The Most Comfortable Seats Because We're Not Facing Each Other, But Sitting Side By Side. We Don't Look At Each Other, But Instead Do So Only When We Want To. We're Allowed To Look Around Without Appearing Rude. We Have A Big Screen In Front Of Us And Side Views. Silence Doesn't Seem Heavy Or Difficult. Nobody Serves Anybody. And Many Other Aspects. One Most Important Thing Is That It Transports Us From One Place To Another.

I Don't Generally Derive My Stories From Novels. I Try To Turn Into Film Things I Have Felt Or Experienced.

I Think The Contrast Between These Two In The Professional World Of Cinema Mattered To Me. One Who Has Reached The Ultimate Point Of Being A Star, Who Knows How To Do Everything Very Well, Facing Another Person Who Would Throughout The Making Of The Film Transfer His Anxiety To Both Of Us, To Me And To Juliette, As To Whether Or Not He Would Be Capable Of Fulfilling His Role. This In Itself Created A Challenge That Was Actually Very Good For Me, Since I Hadn't Ever Counterposed Two Such Performers Before, Creating That Challenge Between Someone Who Knows Their Part And Someone Who Doesn't.
