My Last Interview with Eric Rohmer

When she was working as cutter for films like La Carrière de Suzanne, La Collectionneuse and La Boulangère de Monceau, Jackie Raynal was most fascinated by how Rohmer handled sound. Unusual in times of digital access to every sound bit, the director insisted on using the original sound from exact the same place and time where the scene has been shot. So every bird, every gust of wind and every tree got it’s specific sound.
