“Ethan once said the way we adapt a book is that I hold it open and he retypes it into a computer.” “That’s why we prefer to adapt hardcover books, because of the spine,” Ethan deadpanned, drawing laughter. Asked by festival director Thierry Frémaux, who also heads the Cannes Film Festival, whether they ever argued, Joel described a process of bouncing ideas off each other.

“Burn After Reading,” he recalled, emerged from a conversation about a movie they would never make – one opening with the typewritten words appearing: “CIA Headquarters, Langley, Virginia.” “And then we thought, well, why don’t we make that?” he quipped. The brothers were also keen to share credit with their longtime collaborators, repeatedly stressing that their films were the product of a collective effort.

“Us being up here, we’re taking credit for what a lot of other people have done,” Ethan said, acknowledging DoP Bruno Delbonnel, who was in the audience. The French cinematographer worked with the brothers on “Inside Llewyn Davis” and “The Ballad of Buster Scruggs,” and with Joel on “The Tragedy of Macbeth.” “Something emerges out of the collaboration with somebody else,” Joel said, explaining that the same principle governed his partnership with Ethan.

“The secret to that kind of collaboration is knowing when the other person is right and you’re not.” “I think we’re pretty pleasant to work with,” Ethan ventured. The reason, he joked, was that they had “very big egos” and weren’t threatened by other people’s ideas.

Frémaux turned to producer Eric Fellner, who was also in attendance, to ask whether the brothers really were so easy to work with. “We’ve made nine films together, so I think the answer is yes,” Fellner replied.
