Perhaps, thought Tancredo, it was best to confine oneself to the pleasure of objective, brief facts. On September 17, after four hours of deliberation, Virginia McCallister, also known as Viviana Luxembourg, was sentenced to twenty years in prison, pending any new charges. The defendant didn’t cry when she heard the sentence.

“If he is conscientious, his preliminary work consists precisely of moving backward from the effect to the cause. Starting from this end result — the viewer’s emotional response — he looks for the combinations that will be most effective in its creation. It’s a path taken in reverse, a step-by-step retreat, full of choices, puzzles, redactions, interpolations, that arrives inevitably at the origins of the composition: that is, at composition itself.”
Robert Bresson
