Real Stories for a short film 1
I was talking to a Polish woman, a neighbour I came across on the street. The Chinese woman checked herself into a hospital... For 2 wks now.
Polish woman said psy said, it's because she has been by herself for too long, no family no friends etc no job because her father left her money...
Then she said for herself the same, she is no longer part of Polish community back home and not really French here...then she said when she goes to Poland her family sis bro don't care, and it's not personal. It's just life.
People all have their own lives to live.Then, I suddenly understand what people in talk shows are saying, what does it means: "Dont visit your relatives after you are 60"
"After 60 dont go visit your relatives, there will be comparisons etc etc.... V hard , once the older generation family head is gone, everybody would be dispersed each on their own path... And that is v normal."
Polish woman said, Poland used to be poor, they were v happy to see her come home to visit, she would carry 30kg of luggage with gifts - she curved her back, showed a gesture, how she had carried stuff and hurt her back doing it.
But now they are richer than her.
They don't care about her anymore. And it is normal. She said.
It's just human nature. Not personal.
What I watched -
What is a talk host supposed to do to make a talk show interesting
I watched a lot of the round table talk shows on youtube, w the people talking about events in cultural historical stuff of recent china, recent and old events. With ma ga fei, dou ge, ma dou dou and fang jhou, and another women. I think it was also scripted kind of, not scripted in the ordinary sense, but scripted w a general global content of themes, and with a director; I noticed that one of the hosts, a woman writer has been dressed up in some more cutesy fanciful outfit, that did not seem to fit her personality nor the way she speaks; and yes, I think its staged.
For some discussions, they would say, you must generate opposing talks to make it interesting, so ma do do says, ok whatever you say I will go against the main talk, so the subject was love; etc;
but after a couple of exchanges, both agree on one point of view, and then it could no longer be turned into opposing views, no dynamics in the conversaion, and the director says, cut cut , cant use because of no conflict.
