Loved Close-Up
Close-up is one of the most unforgettable films about cinema, people playing themselves, and the question of what fiction is and isn’t, and who is and isn’t conscious of that distinction.

Loved Blow-Up
I’m a photographer, so my connection with Blow-Up is through photography. The film is based on a story by an Argentine writer I love, Julio Cortázar, and it’s just so elegantly and strangely made.

Loved Persona
Persona is fascinating. I don’t think any other movie has come close to what it does in terms of depicting two different people who become one, then become the other, then become themselves again, and so on.

Loved Paris, Texas
Paris, Texas is another classic. I watched it again before making Spencer, when I was looking for movies about motherhood. It’s a very moving, simple, and extremely regional story.

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.
