“Danton. So… Verisimilitude, time and place. Movies take you to another time, another world, another country, another language. Danton was one of those movies for me. It’s a harrowing time in history, and this put me there in a way that I still remember, the way that movies can put you in a place in time that you’ll never go, ever, in your life.”
