I think, if you are under the impression that Portrait of a Lady on Fire is even...gestured at in any way in your examples - then we are in different places (I recommend you start an ssri).
I urge you to compare this to the translation[1] of the shooting script of Portrait of a Lady on fire:
1. STUDIO PARIS-INT-DAY
A blank page. A feminine hand draws a black line, the first
stroke of a drawing. Another blank page. And a new female
hand, which starts a new line. This action is repeated
several times, coinciding with the credits.
WOMAN'S VOICE
First my contours. My silhouette.
The silhouette takes shape as we move from frame to frame and
the sketch of the figure comes to life under the strokes of a
pencil.
A large room pierced with skylights. An artist's studio. It’s
Paris in 1780. Eight young girls between 13 and 18 years old
are sitting on stools that are nearly obscured by the
fullness of their dresses. They are bent over their drawing
boards, which serve them as support. The faces of the young
girls are focused. Their eyes oscillate between their drawing
and the horizon.
