"I very much liked the juxtaposition of the tension between her very unperturbed response to what seemed to be a parallel universe of sounds, sounds that perhaps if we paid attention we might actually hear in a certain way. It almost seemed to be coming out of a restlessness, almost a boredom, or boredom of the character, and playing with sounds that if we had the time or the inclination, we might hear and create rhythms from it. It would be greatness really to try to draw from it certain possible feelings from story… solitude and bordering on boredom, restlessness, not in the experience of watching it but the character within it, which I thought was very interesting and part of the human experience."
