long shoot

Ryleigh 2022-04-20 09:02:10

Long shots, long shots, silent long shots, only trivial things like the sound of the lawnmower every morning, the melancholy sound of running water in the shower fill this silence. The length of the shot is suffocating, and it turns into the feelings of the protagonist. Is it kind of boring? Is it leisurely? Is it a kind of decadence? I think everyone has a unique feeling in this long shot, at somewhere.

I think that may be the director's intention. Take the audience to a unique somewhere.

Not for impatient and Hollywood-style moviegoers.

Somewhere quotes

  • Johnny Marco: What's that book about again?

    Cleo: It's about this girl that's in love with this guy. But he's a vampire, and his whole family's vampires. So she can't really be with him.

    Johnny Marco: Why doesn't she become one too?

    Cleo: doesn't she become one too? Cleo: Because she can't. He doesn't want to turn her into a vampire. And if she gets too close to him, he won't be able to help himself.

    Johnny Marco: Oh, man.

  • Johnny Marco: Whoa! What the fuck, dude?

    Ron the Masseur: Oh. Did they not tell you how I work?

    Johnny Marco: No.

    Ron the Masseur: I have a website that explains my technique. I feel that if my client's naked, it's just more comfortable if I meet them at the same level.

    Johnny Marco: Yeah, it's - it's not for me. Thanks, though. Why don't you just pack it up.

    Ron the Masseur: Alright.

    Ron the Masseur: [after putting his clothes back on] S'sorry about that.

    Johnny Marco: Nah, it's cool.
