" rohmer preferred to use non - professional actors in his films. he usually held a large number of rehearsals before shooting and would shoot his films very quickly. he spent little time editing his films. he usually shot his films chronologically, and often shot scenes during the time of day in which they took place. he explained that " my films are based on meteorology. if i didn't call the weather service everyday, i couldn't make my films because they're shot according to the weather outside. my films are slaves to weather. " the director's characters engage in long conversations — mostly talking about man – woman relationships but also on mundane issues like trying to find a vacation spot. there are also occasional digressions by the characters on literature and philosophy as most of rohmer's characters are middle class and university educated. a summer's tale ( 1996 ) has most of the elements of a typical rohmer film : no soundtrack music, no close - ups, a seaside resort, long conversations between beautiful young people ( who are middle class and educated ) and discussions involving the characters'interests from songwriting to ethnology. rohmer said he wanted to look at " thoughts rather than actions ", dealing " less with what people do than what is going on in their minds while they are doing it. " beginning in the late 1970s during the production of perceval le gallois rohmer began to reduce the number of crew members on his films. he first dispensed with the script supervisor, then ( controversially ) cut out the assistant director, then all other assistants and technical managers until, by the time he shot the green ray in 1986, his crew consisted only of a camera operator and a sound engineer. rohmer stated that " i even wonder if i could work in the usual conditions of filmmaking.
