"Noise" teaser. NOTCOT.ORG. How Anna Karina Changed My Life. I To Make Choices I am sitting at the kitchen table reading the paper. It is a Saturday morning and I should be looking through the employment section when I see a picture of a woman that catches my attention: The woman, it turns out to be, is Anna Karina. She has dark hair and big sad eyes. I discover that she stars in one of the films screening at a French Film Festival at the Treasury Theatre. The film she is in is called Vivre Sa Vie or “My Life to Live”. II To Feel Free I am driving along the South-Eastern Freeway at a quarter to nine.
I am early and so read everything on the flyer. III To Be Patient I am watching the film and, to begin with, I am kept distant from the character of Nana. I cannot see her face at first and she is kept temptingly hidden from view for many minutes. IV To Watch The Watcher I am aware of my own place as a character in this film when Nana goes to a theatre to see a silent film called La Passion de Jeanne d’Arc. Then she begins to cry.
