    The Killers

    Their words

    All of Robert Siodmak’s films are great, but I really love his version of The Killers. It’s just fabulous.

    Kiss Me Deadly

    Their words

    I’d love to remake Kiss Me Deadly in some way, but I don’t even know if that would be possible. It has such a contemporary energy, but it’s ultimately so tied to the time in which it was made.

    Only Angels Have Wings

    Their words

    Howard Hawks has always been a big influence on me and my work, and Only Angels Have Wings is my favorite movie of all time. What do I love about it? Everything.

    Spellbound

    Their words

    My favorite Hitchcock film will always be Vertigo, but Spellbound is so visually stunning.

    Rebecca

    Their words

    I also really love Rebecca. It has an incredible atmosphere of psychological unease that really appeals to me.

    Dead Ringers

    Their words

    I find Dead Ringers, with those horrible instruments and Jeremy Irons’s great dual performance, to actually be very funny. It all really works!

What is a korrent?

A korrent is a belief a person has stated in their own words: one sentence stating the claim, backed by a quote and a source, kept at korrents.com.

Under a name here, the quoted block is what they actually said. The korrent beneath it is the claim those words support, in korrents' wording — tap it to see the record, its source, and who else holds it.

Nobody here wrote their own korrents. They are compiled from public statements, and a person can change their mind, which is recorded too.

About the English under a post

Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.

The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter, especially about tone.

Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked article and a belief on korrents.com are left in their original language.
