Godard is incredibly brilliant, the things he says. Apparently here in France, the most interesting thing when a new film of his is going to come out are his press conferences, because he`s so brilliant.
And that`s what`s so inspirational about something like DIONYSUS. It actually records the moment that it happened. Kind of like a document of the period.
And I always had this idea for making a movie about a femme fatale, because I like these characters. They`re a lot of fun, they`re sexy, they`re manipulative, they`re dangerous.
