People who love details of life are quite special.

He’s probably exactly right with the five seconds and its impact on me. I do know I think of this scene often and always think of this movie when I dangle a sugar cube over coffee. That’s a pleasure for me this movie helped me single out as a moment of pure focus.

I've watched BLEU about 20 times and the little details never fail to fascinate me.

[@Dead00017]

Can you explain what he mean by "heroine world" ?

[@AScreenwritersJourney]

I saw this movie almost 30 years ago, and the sugar cube shot stuck with me. It's the only thing I remember from it!

everything is interconnected. The unspoken with the unseen...and then déjà vu comes, a sort of hunch

[@rdpathan]

I always wondered why Blue was perhaps the most well-paced movie I had ever seen, and now I got my answer. The extra three seconds between five and eight can create a larger impact on the finished product if a director lets the sugar cube take as much time as it wants to and if subsequent shots are dealt with in the same way, the pacing of the film will get hampered to a disastrous extent. Three seconds might not matter so much for the entirety of the film, but for that individual shot, the difference between five and eight is 37.5%, which is huge.

This is the way you should teach. So presice and broadening out ways to think and concepts.

he is just legend!

How much I would like to have had all this sort of explanations and reasons for the enourmous collection of details (and also some apparently absurd scenes) present in “Double Life of Veronique”… Thanks for this precious material of master Kieslowski 🙏🏻❤️

[@ozy1944]

How meticulous is he about seconds. Just impressed by such work... five sec long transition scene took half-day preperation in order not to compromise from two seconds :)

[@jcfp86]

A masterpiece...

[@andrewkeen7828]

Just simply one of the greats

[@venezuelantraveller]

beautiful, thank you

When a close-up of a character's beverage reveals something about their inner state:
Ice cube in Coffee = Blue
Antacid in Water = Taxi Driver
Cream in Coffee = Two or Three Things I Know about Her
