Duras and Orson Welles, both directors Jeanne Moreau felt saved with. Orson admired Moreau and brought her into three fantastic literary worlds , to Shakespeare, in Falstaff, to Kafka, in “The Process”, to Tania Blixen in “Une histoire immortelle”.

Then Moreau and Welles created another film, their fourth one called “The Deep”, which was unfortunately never completed, however the most adventurous project, what the cinema has to offer: an obsession drama on two swinging boats: pure destabilization banned on celluloid.

I am subject to very powerful lows. When you have highs, you have terrible lows. When you pinpoint that you are responsible for everything that happens to you, it is very frightening.

Happy Birthday, Jeanne.
