Two in a row. Scream real loud.
Think it’s Antoine et Colette (François Truffaut, 1962). If not, please correct me.
Had a conversation I did not think I would have nor did I want to have today. It was ugly and unhappy and none of it was unnecessary nor I think unexpected from the other end, just difficult. Difficult in the broad delivery sense to say upsetting things to someone for whose well-being I do care, and difficult in the close and personal sense to voice deep-seated, long-meditated-over anxieties. Balancing the manifest past with predictions for an even slightly hopeful future is such a fine and delicate thing, it’s like splintered glass just working its way through you. It’s so layered and overwhelming.
Edit: The still is from Masculin Féminin (Godard, 1966). Thanks to Linda for the sourcing!

This screen shot is actually from Masculin, féminin, it is however Jean-Pierre Léaud which was also in Antoine et Colette.
