Friendly Fires -- Why Don't You Answer?
A traveller checks into a seemingly haunted hotel room -
Director Commentary
I thought the track was really striking: its production has a sound that wouldn't be out of place on the soundtrack to some big nocturnal L.A. crime drama, like Drive or Heat, but the song's central question -- 'why don't you answer?' -- sounded to me like the kind of question you'd find in an early 20th Century British ghost story. So the synthesis seemed like a natural one: both forms share a kind of male ennui. It's M.R. James meets Michael Mann.
When shooting, I tried to use some slightly retro effects -- slow optical zooms and cross-fades -- which seemed to complement both of these genres. All of our trick shots (notably, for me, where we see him from under water, and the shot in which the woman disappears) were achieved in camera, with a single take.
