When I was shooting this scene, I was reminded of how much I've been influenced, in a purely imagistic sense, by the cinematography of the late Jean Yves Escoffier, which in turn reminded me of how far I've come since the time I tried to watch Gummo for the first time and couldn't get through it. I've made a lot of mistakes.
It's freezing outside, and raining to boot. The parking lot kiss scene we're shooting later tonight is going to be a beautiful mess of exhaled vapor and glistening concrete.

Escoffier is a hero of mine. His work in "Les Amants du Pont-Neuf" is among his strongest, or anything he did with Carax. Gorgeous frame as well.
