Stories

Andrew, I am enjoying your Cannes reportage (I think that's French for "reporting") very much. I really appreciate hearing about Martel. I don't much care for stories myself. Anecdotes are good. Even parables. Sometimes, rarely, a story about the impossibility of stories. I'll be looking for her films.
