the interview with Mike Figgis

In the interview( The Interview With Mike Figgis), there is something caught my eyes.

1. The relationship between an audience and a film maker. What is a perfect audience? To Mike figgis, whose reason for making film is to see what is technically possible to do with film, the perfect audiences could be : enjoy the technique in the film, after watching a movie, they might say, " I have no clue what the story is about, but you have to check this out. Because i don't know how they did it."

2. How to measure time in a film? Is the plot incidental?
Mike Figgis definitly has an entirely different sense of time, a gait out of step with the rhythms of time common to the moving picture. Shooting a 93 minite film in four different scene synchronously, Figgis plit each action into four, and claimed that the relationship of these people anf their movement(actions and reactions) is arbitury and incidental. Meaning is achieved in the relations between synchronous time with different spaces in a system, not by telling a story.
