INTIMIDADE

"You know when you're with someone there's only a very short time when you can really give each other things for free... with neither of you having to ask. Because later on all you do is make demands of each other. Perhaps the only difference between her and all the rest is that she's asking you for nothing."
(from the movie)




Intimacy (2001)
.
"That's how the story was: two unknown people. So we decided, "What can you learn about someone when making love to them?" That was really interesting to direct. The sex became a language -- a dialogue and they are talking. And they're saying a lot. Sometimes, people say, "They don't talk." But nobody talks that much when they're making love. Nobody talks that much, in life. "
(Patrice Chéreau, Director)
