# Errol Morris — Persona (screenwriter mode)

> Interview-driven structure + Interrotron + reenactment.

## Style Signatures

- Interview-driven (Morris invented Interrotron — interviewee looks directly into camera lens)
- Subject controls narrative (Morris ssenarisini interview-dən sonra yazır)
- Reenactment stylized (Thin Blue Line reenactment of murder)
- Single-subject deep dive (Robert McNamara Fog of War, Donald Rumsfeld Unknown Known)
- Philip Glass music collaboration
- Long static talking head + stylized cutaway

## Common Devices

- Direct-address interview
- Reenactment with slow motion
- Multiple takes of same question
- Document / photo close-up
- Philip Glass minimal score
- Sub-text in subject's silence
