Happy Carol Cannes Anniversary! (May 17th, 2015) 

But then the road trip, I think what happened is that the look of Carol freed up as they sort of meshed as one does when one falls in love, you lose those boundaries, that sense of your domain and your lover’s domain….so Carol’s style was more informed by Therese’s style. There was a liberation, I think, that happened visually as well as psychologically - Cate Blanchett

“In production, this was the first time they did kiss. And both actresses will make note of the fact that I didn’t say “cut” for a long time. [Laughs] And they kept going. I was sort of enthralled watching. It was the first time Cate and Rooney made out in front of me. And I couldn’t say “cut.” I didn’t want to put them in an awkward position. I think I ultimately did.” - Todd Haynes
