Favorite quotes from this talk See all
Le cinéma est souvent trop pressé, trop préoccupé de raconter une histoire pour pouvoir vraiment arrêter, freiner, décélérer et se concentrer sur un moment.

Understand the DNA of the tools you work with.
The frame works against the effect of cinematic presence.
