āI wanted to challenge politically the kissing scene, which traditionally either has the surprise kiss scene thanks to a rain shower for instance, or the obvious kiss scene thanks to mustard on the corner of the lips, for instance, and it is generally carefully scripted as āThey kiss.ā Or āThey passionately kiss.ā And then itās on the actorsā shoulders. It seems to rely a lot on them because itās their bodies and fluids and interaction, but it shouldnāt be. Itās fake. Itās not about finding the magic. Actors should always be part of the elaboration of an idea, especially with intimate scenes. So I wanted to craft a scene that would embody the sexiness of consent.Ā People who are questioning the idea of asking for consent in France, they do exist. They are brave fighters for the culture of French gallantry who say that asking for consent would not be sexy, it will break the mood. Some of the French critics thought the film lacked flesh, precisely because to them eroticism is about conflict. [ā¦] At some point I came up with the idea of them having to unveil their mouths like they would undress themselves. So I put a scarf, justified by a strong wind, pressed on their lips and thinking you would see their heavy breathing through the moving cloth.ā
imo even if there is a Lola/Elliot kiss there no guarantee that he
1. Initiates ļæ¼
Or
2. Reciprocates
it may be a classic āboy shows me kindness and friendship, lemme just kiss him cuz I donāt know boundariesā moment
especially if heās taking her under his wing and she starts misreading his motives. idk this just seems more likely than Elliot making out with a 16 year old when heās mad in love with his man
I just sent the clip to my best friend and he called me crying because he wished he had this when he was figuring things out. Sorry not sorry but I donāt give a shit about anyone elseās opinion anymore. I really donāt.
