i like this kind of tension
I like this kind of tension, the films where a man and a woman do not want to fall in love with one another. They want simply to lie down or take a bath. But as their life is too dreadful, they move on and do another thing. I like when the characters look at each other while wondering: “But what am I doing? Why am I saying to him that tomorrow we will rob a bank?” At the same time, one is left with the feeling that at the time they've spent, they lived a very rich life.
