In memory, you can access something from the past, anything that you've experienced that you remember - it's there.

But all of us are just all caught in this time, whatever that is.

You can ask yourself, if a film makes a claim, is the claim true or false? Having said that, a style of presenting material doesn't guarantee truth.

It's as if you imagine that changing the font on a sentence you write makes it more truthful.
Errol Morris

I get out of bed to trap them before they escape.
Ray Bradbury

I know the pleasure you get from making your films. The intense involvement in every aspect: the acting, the camera, the colors, the costumes, even the hair and makeup. Editing is thrilling.
