Joe Wright on the handflex™: "I never know where to put a camera when I'm shooting carriages pulling away 'cause there's no emotion to drive it. But there's the emotion."

PRIDE & PREJUDICE (2005) dir. Joe Wright

KINDS OF KINDNESS (2024) hunter schafer

“For the first time a benevolent psychopathology beckons to us, for example the car crash is a fertilizing rather than a destructive event - a liberation of sexual energy that mediates the sexuality of those who have died with an intensity impossible in any other form. To fully understand that and to live that... that is my project.”
