This idea that if you talk to a director..you..discover something amazing, some secret. What they know is in what they produce.

SLAVOJ ZIZEK on mistakenly expecting to find in someone the more than herself. This more in her than her is only found in what she produces, and not even she herself will fully understand it, it is a secret even to her. This is the case with film directors as much as with celebrities and other people we desire to have a secret factor X, a hidden ‘objet a’, a magic agalma which would make them special to us. http://ift.tt/1IWrFvC
