Three Colors: Red

“It’s the trilogy made by Krzysztof Kieślowski, Three Colors. More specifically, Three Colors: Blue. That’s real director master shit. The balance between, and the precision between, the communication between the cinematographer, the director, the director, the cinematographer, and the composer. And I will say that it’s a movie that, when I watch it, it’s one of the rare movies that I... I’m still moved to tears by the cinematography. Voilà.”

“I was talking about Juliette Binoche last night, and I was saying that for a long time she was a referent. And I was talking about these films. I was talking about how important was Blue in my life, how important was Kieślowski. Not just for these, but the Dekalog, and just the integrity of someone, as a filmmaker. I mean, there’s obviously many, many great referents here, but this one came right… in the right moment in my life. I was 14, 15 years old, and Kieślowski was crucial for me.”

“One of my favorite directors of all time is Kieślowski and blue, white, and red are amazing Trilogy. I love one of my favorite movies is the it has a perfect opening where the family drives around the periphery I think it's called Blue... So much was told without any dialogue I thought it was perfect setup for a movie you know it was very powerful and that kind of blew my mind about making movie. When I can I think about that Kieślowski movie and how they set that story up.”

“Krzysztof Kieślowski. The trilogy of the Three Colors. He did Blue, White, and Red. And specifically Blue, I think the use of music in this film has really changed me and educated me as a filmmaker. Music is very important in my world, in the movies that I do. And I think there’s something here, hearing in this film that I truly, truly value. If you have the chance to see it, look.”

“[Translated] This is very famous. It was a big surprise for me at the time. Three Colors: Red, White, Blue. I highly recommend this film.”
