Not That I Ever Felt The Necessity Of Proving That All Human Beings Suffer The Same Way, Feel Joy The Same Way, But It Happened On My Way - When I Get Close To These People, Just By The Simple Intervention Of Translation I Can Actually Reach Them And Ask Them Something, And Their Reaction Is As I Expected. I See That The Relationship Goes So Smoothly, And I Realize That Cultural Languages And Specificities Are Nothing But Simple Obstacles That You Can Easily Overcome. It's Obvious That Human Beings Are The Same Wherever They Are.

I Saw This French Woman, This English Man In Italy. It Was A Film [certified Copy] I Knew Well, But I Had Already Seen It, And I Was Familiar With It, And I Had No Feeling Of Anxiety Or Responsibility Toward It.

I Am Still Very Surprised That I Managed To Make That Film [close Up]. When I Actually Look Back On That Film, I Really Feel That I Was Not The Director But Instead Just A Member Of The Audience.

The Kind Of Sleep That I Had During My Own Film [certified Copy] Screening In Cannes Is Different. It's Not Because Of The Specificity Of The Film. It Was Because Of My Relationship As An Author To This Film. Usually When I Take My Films To Festivals, I Feel Incredibly Anxious About Them. I Wonder How It Will Be Received, How The Audience Will React. I Feel Deeply Responsible For Them. Whereas This Time, I Didn't Have That Responsibility On My Shoulders.

I Had Intended To Make Another Film, Called Pocket Money, Which Was To Be About Children At A School. I Was Very Much Intrigued By The Story [of Close Up] - It Came Into My Dreams And I Was Very Much Influenced By It. So I Called My Producer And Asked That We Put Aside Pocket Money And Start Something Else, And He Agreed.
