"When making a documentary, you can’t know or plan everything before you start producing the project, so get comfortable with the unknown."
I'm currently deep diving into the (fictional) films of Robert Altman, a director whose artistic vision was all about being comfortable with the unknown, with seeing what emerges from the process.
100% — so much comes from the unknown, even if it’s uncomfortable. I still need to do a deeper dive on Altman, I’ve only seen 3 Women and McCabe & Mrs. Miller. Thanks for reading, Robert!
Can't disagree with any of this.

You're very welcome. Recently covered 3 Women on my own publication, if you're interested.
I would love to read it! When you have a moment, please send over the link
