Critic argued · France → United States

I wanted to make a spiritual thriller, an existential thriller, and I thought the elements that Bresson and Bergman and Dreyer and Ozu, the elements that they brought to the spiritual film, could be transmuted into a thriller that would keep the audience on the edge of their seat.
