This has something to do with teaching (pt.5)

from “Brad Pitt on Christianity and ‘Tree of Life’” by Anthony Kaufman:

‘The best moments were not preconceived,’ explained Pitt, who likened Malick’s looser, improvisational process to someone carrying around a butterfly net and trying to catch moments rather than direct them. ‘I’ve tried to go more in that direction,’ said Pitt, ‘Making an intense study when you go into it, but then let it go where it takes you.’

Maybe assessment should be more butterflying catching and less of that other thing.
