“My Charlotte was my personal favourite film of the night, as I realized I never felt manipulated as an audience member. It was as if I was looking onto the director’s ideas without having them forced upon me. I felt able to let the plot affect me, without feeling as though anyone else could possibly be planning the emotional attachment I experienced. The overall flow of this piece built up so wholly, and was accompanied by such terrific acting, that the film’s scheme just made sense to me. The second line I scribbled down as soon as I heard it this evening went something like, “I can’t play her last note, or else I’ll forget her… Like all the rest.” Let me tell you, if this film were shown to a group of teenage girls, you’d get squeals. Fortunately, I am not a squealer. I am however, the type to rave about eloquent lines such as this one, and take the time to scribble it all over notebooks until I feel someone has connected with it as I did. In this case, I believe the director simply found a more effective means in which to share their idea. To this director I would just like to say, “I get it.”
