00:01

- [Narrator] It's a common saying amongst screenwriters

00:03

that you have to grab the audience

00:04

within the first 10 pages of a script,

00:07

the opening sequence.

00:09

That's 10 minutes or less

00:10

to form an emotional connection with the main characters

00:13

and set up what's at stake in the story.

00:16

- I'm not even sure how my writing process works

00:17

until I'm asked

00:19

to describe it,

00:20

but I think it works this way.

00:22

- [Narrator] When crafting the opening sequence

00:24

for Marriage Story,

00:25

director Noah Baumbach had to figure out

00:27

how to get the audience quickly invested

00:29

in the marriage of Charlie and Nicole.

00:32

He accomplished this

00:33

by using a simple but effective device.

00:36

- [Charlie] What I love about Nicole.

00:38

- [Nicole] What I love about Charlie.

00:40

- [Narrator] Voice-over narration

00:41

from the perspective of both Charlie and Nicole,

00:44

each explaining what they love about each other.

00:47

So today I want to explore how Baumbach uses this device

00:51

to make us care about the characters and their relationship;

00:54

to examine the way he establishes an organic visual language

00:57

to create a sense of intimacy;

01:00

and to look at how this culminates in a surprising reveal

01:04

that pulls the rug out from under us,

01:06

all in the first nine minutes.

01:08

Let's sit down with writer and director Noah Baumbach

01:11

and take a look at the opening sequence of Marriage Story.

01:15

- Hi, I'm Noah Baumbach,

01:16

and this is the opening sequence.

01:20

- [Charlie] What I love about Nicole.

01:23

01:25

that she doesn't drink.

01:27
