Céline talks about the importance of representing the abortion within the film

(Little reminder that @bereaving​ is the best !!)

“Here it’s a sequence that I know is disturbing. Because we just got out of this scene (the abortion scene), just got out of this representation of an abortion and we enter another dynamic, which is to represent abortion within the film.”

“It was very important for me even if there’s a double tension. It is important to have an abortion and to represent the importance of representing it. Because this is what happened by cutting women off from the opportunity to be artists. They did not represent their private lives, they did not represent their desire, they did not represent their bodies, they did not represent their lives. And all these images are missing from history, but they are especially missing in OUR life. It’s Annie Ernaux who said that there is not a museum in the world where there is a painting called « the abortion ».”

“So this scene may happen a little abruptly but it’s not to forget that art creates memory. And I also wanted to represent the pleasure of representing, the pleasure that we see on Marianne’s face. And also to represent the impulse of the model, her intelligence, it’s her who said what to look at, it’s her who had the idea of painting. This was the opportunity that women had, to be in the artists’ workshops/studios, it was to be models. They seized this opportunity, that’s how they made artworks.”

“This is my favorite painting. It has never been completed.”

[Spoilers] “I’ll tell you who the fuck is my “favourite,” and it’s my gay mom, Rachel Weisz. Trust me, you don’t know the meaning of the phrase “power bitch” until you’ve seen Lady Sarah grab the Queen of England by her throat, shove her up against the bedpost, and ask through a naughty smile, “Are you scared?” Yes, bitch, I’m shaking like an animatronic Skeleton doll in CVS. ” — Jill Gutowitz from IntoMore.com
