«[Wachowski es] very creative, and has a very, very strong vision. He doesn’t work like any of the directors I’ve worked with. He loves to run shots, so we often go 20 minutes without a single cut… Everyone had to be aware that there were 360 [grados de cobertura] at all times. She would stand next to the operator and be shooting. Keanu is talking and she is shooting. She’s driving the camera, zooming in on him, and then she would just turn around, and suddenly the camera will be on you, even though you’re on the other side of the line. This is how she shoots. It’s a lot like how you feel in the moment. It’s very instinctive for her. It is fascinating to watch. I have never worked with a director who has so much instinct… if you can’t be flexible with a director like that, then there is no point in working together ”, explained.
