We would never be sure of the sequence of events. We argue about it still.

The Virgin Suicides (1999, Sofia Coppola, dir.)

What drew you to The Virgin Suicides? Its been my favorite for awhile, but I'm not really sure why.

I can’t tell you exactly what drew me in. I’ve always been into cryptic, slightly disturbing stories. The Virgin Suicides was just that, enveloped in the narrative of women, directed by one. It felt right. Now, years later the obsession that led me to create this blog and post so many things uneases me, for sure. I love the story still, but perhaps for different reasons. I was also suicidal at some point, and found consolation in the story. Not knowing exactly what pushed them off the edge, and seeing the remnants of their lives from practical strangers kept me sane. I obsessed over them, and away from myself. It pushed me towards staying alive, in the hopes that I could one day tell a story in my own way, whether a film as a director or cinematographer, or a writer. Yeah, I think that’s it.

We knew the girls were really women in disguise, that they understood love, and even death, and that our job was merely to create the noise that seemed to fascinate them.

What lingered after them was not life, but the most trivial list of mundane facts: a clock ticking on a wall, a room dim at noon, and the outrageousness of a human being thinking only of herself.

"So much has been said about the girls over the years. But we have never found an answer. It didn’t matter in the end how old they had been, or that they were girls, but only that we had loved them and that they hadn’t heard us calling, still do not hear us calling them from out of those rooms, where they went to be alone for all time and where we will never find the pieces to put them back together"

"I feel like Sofia had such a tender, sweet way with the young actors that she was working with. I think it shows on the screen." ― Eleanor Coppola

You never get over it. But you get to where it doesn’t bother you so much.
