This is the rule, and there is no way to free oneself of it: as soon as the thought has arisen, it must be followed to the very end.
“I’ve always kind of refused to get locked in a specific genre, or whatever, so I’ve managed to preserve a situation of complete freedom for myself. I think, now, the message is pretty clear: Just don’t expect from me any coherent follow-up to what I’ve been doing before… and that I will be moving on according to my own rules.”
Olivier Assayas
