Aaron saves more of the notes he takes in their original form than Bill, who used to get rid of paper as quickly as possible, or else type them.
He also gave Camille some notes in person, waiting for her to write them down, which was a good way for them to process together.
With a larger cast it wouldn’t be practical, but it seemed so powerful in this context.
To see the note go from the director’s handwritten paper, to his words out loud, to Camille’s words out loud, to their discussion of it, to her handwritten paper – all the technology in the world, and we’re still seeing how a piece of information is transformed between two humans.
It made me understand how a “note” works, more – and why, if it isn’t worth all that, you don’t give it.
