“There’s a certain freedom that I think only exists in shorts.”
@connorjessup wrote, directed, and edited JULIAN AND THE WIND… He wouldn’t do all three again.

for valentine’s day (ish), I wrote this kinda personal thing for @NotebookMUBI about heartbreak, the surprises of familiar art, and the generous, infinite sadness of IN THE MOOD FOR LOVE. ❤️https://t.co/bnYAmY382l
"That I’d seen it before and not felt this way—that dissonance made the new feeling way more complex, deepened it, layered it with noisy ghosts."
