Reflections on Modern Filmmaking
This chapter discusses the lack of recent films that authentically capture the essence of contemporary life, particularly through the lens of the pandemic. It contrasts current filmmakers' tendencies toward escapism with the more grounded storytelling seen in past decades, and emphasizes the importance of personal narratives in today's cinema. The conversation illustrates how prominent directors are increasingly drawing from their own experiences, leading to a more intimate connection between their lives and their art.
