“This one was called The Spirit of the Beehive by Victor Erice, Spanish filmmaker. He hasn't done a lot of films but I love all of them.”
“And there's another one named Cría cuervos which is a beautiful film and I think her name is Ana Torrent who plays the actress in both films. She's amazing.”
“I have to take Naked, one of my favorite films. It's a crazy beautiful physical film that I want to show my friends.”
“Ratcatcher by Lynne Ramsay. I'm a big fan and I think I saw it at the right time also. It's really beautiful.”
“I was thinking about, I'm making a short film now called Joan of Arc, so I think I'll pick this one, Dreyer's Joan of Arc. I haven't seen it, so I'll take that.”
“I have to take a film by Tarkovsky because he's one of my favorites. This is Stalker... I kind of blend Tarkovsky together with all of his films, Stalker or Mirror. There's scenes in Mirror that I think are in Stalker, etc.”
“This is the first Bresson film I saw. L'argent. I don't even know if I say it the right way, I'm terrible in French, but, this one surprised me. The craft is, like no other.”
“And, Bruno Dumont, L'humanité. It really scared me. I remember when I saw it first., very inspiring, very beautiful, very sad.”
“I'm going to take Blow-Up. I just saw actually Blow Out the other day, it was a lot of fun, it was very nice, but I really love this film.”
“And I have to pick Stanley Kubrick, Barry Lyndon. I would pick, you know, all of the Stanley Kubrick films, but yeah, this is one of my favorites, so I'll take this one.”
