And I can really see Anna’s eyes in 2003


Her ears.


Her feet.


This is what it looks like when she says “I love you” in 2003.

Memories are unsettled things for director Mike Mills. Even the most precious are fleeting and untrustworthy and only grow foggier the closer he looks at them. He discovered this while writing the script for “Beginners,” inspired by the story of his late father, who came out as a gay man at age 75.There is a funny moment early in the film, in which the adult son played by Ewan McGregor recalls being told of his father’s true sexual orientation, with narration set against contradictory images flashing on the screen: “I remember him wearing a purple sweater when he told me this — but actually he wore a robe.” “Memories are so broken apart,” says Mills, 44. “I can remember my dad saying the same things in a sweet tone and in an angry tone. In some of my memories, I’m looking at myself in a shot-reverse-shot structure,” he says of the technique of showing movie characters in conversation from opposite camera angles, “which is impossible, right? The language of filmmaking has infiltrated into my dear precious memory of my father. How unstable and unreliable is all this stuff?”
