The Passion of Joan of Arc 1928
Every frame, every look, every silent voice lingers not just on screen, but in your mind and heart, leaving you grasping for words that can never quite measure up. And Maria Falconetti’s eyes, God, I can’t stop thinking about them. They hold everything: fear, strength, faith, hope, sorrow. Without a single word, they pull you into her agony, her resolve, her quiet unbreakable faith, making you feel every ounce of what she’s going through, even if you can’t fully understand…

Pickpocket 1959
Michel moves through life like a shadow, a thief not just of wallets but of meaning itself. Prideful, desperate, lost...he builds walls, yet always leaves the door open,such a strange behavior for a thief.Is it a silent cry for salvation, absolution, or does he simply long for love? Clinging to what will undo him..yet in the end,there is Jeanne, waiting."Oh, Jeanne, pour aller jusqu'à toi, quel drôle de chemin il m'a fallu prendre." Was it ever really about the theft, or was it the longing to be caught?

The Green Ray 1986
so crushingly relatable. It was both comforting and unsettling to feel so seen. Her quiet uncertainty, the way she gets lost in her thoughts, feeling like a walking desolation, unable to connect with the world around her, it was like a mirror to how I sometimes feel. The struggle of wanting to feel something real but being trapped in a space where nothing seems to reach you... to touch you... was just too much.
The green ray itself, that moment…
