VENICE, Sept. 9 (Xinhua) -- ""I never show everything or give all the details about the story because I want to allow space for the viewers to project their own personal experience and emotions onto the story,"" French director Stephane Brize said.
""Through this process, the spectator can make his own film. Then the face of an actor must not be the commentary on the story, but only the canvas of a painter where you can draw the emotions you want,"" said Brize when speaking with Xinhua about his movie Une Vie in competition at the ongoing 73rd Venice Film Festival.
Brize believes what is unseen is important and for this reason, he rarely likes to film his characters frontally.
The film is about Jeanne, an idealistic and ingenious woman in a world of ""wolves"" who ends up manipulated by everybody.
Brize directed The Measure of a Man which was presented at the 2015 Cannes Film Festival wherein the lead actor, Vincent Lindon, won the best actor award.
Une Vie was inspired by a Guy de Maupassant novel Brize read 20 years ago in which he developed a strong connection with the character of Jeanne, a 19th century nobel woman.
Re-reading the book, Brize understand that her inability to grow up was linked to her belief in the high potential of the individual and of humankind. A woman unable or unwilling to equip herself with the necessary ""defense weapons"" needed to deal with real life.
""In her inability to see evil and contradictions and to lie and do ugly things, she has an absolute beauty and purity but inevitably, this rare gift will also be her tragedy,"" the French director said.
Brize disclosed a very personal element, saying, ""In her incapacity to change her views on the world and on men in general, somehow, I recognize myself in part of my life and this is my main interest with dealing with this story.""
The director explained that the husband character, Julien, had lost his family fortune and at that time it was quite normal to marry someone for financial reasons. Jeanne's mother is seduced by her potential son-in-law and pushes Jeanne to marry him.
Maupassant presented the character of Julien highly unfavourably and presented him as someone who just wants to climb the social ladder and retrieve the fortune his family lost.
""His heart is beating because he sees, unconsciously, Jeanne only as a solution for his financial status, but the doesn't care about her. This is also a modern situation and I spoke with a lot of women going out with rich men just to fill a void,"" the French director explained.
Still on the money issue, Brize said the son of Jeanne was acting out a sort of revenge because of her over protective attitude, and dissipates the family patrimony and depriving her of the fortune.
Brize wanted to differentiate himself by doing something different.
He explained that ""I came well equipped with thousands of period films that are very neat, polished almost in a caricature way seemingly false vis-a-vis a time period that none of us have lived through, therefore we can't have an objective vision of that time.""
The director's idea was to make a realistic period film and he tried to get rid of all his unconscious references that he had in mind and working on his instinct and intuitions, ""trying to focus my attention to the main character of Jeanne and presenting this timeless and universal story.""
