“I want to be mentioned in the same breath as the Mona Lisa”

Absolutely thrilling writing. Whenever they would circle back to a point or bring some piece of dialogue, that was so quietly placed at the beginning, back, I would cheer in the theater.

Cinema is about what is inside and what is outside the frame, and both can be manipulated. It is fascinating how easily we put our trust in whatever we are told, even when we had clearly seen otherwise.
