“I am picking first The Red Shoes. I kind of have a special story about this one because I was lucky enough– I worked with Francis Ford Coppola when I was… Gosh, I was young, maybe thirteen, and he knew that I did ballet. And we shot this film with him, it was called Twixt, and it was in Napa Valley on his vineyard and we all stayed, like, at his house. I was with my grandmother and we stayed and ate spaghetti every night. And he was like, “Let’s have a movie night. You do ballet and I want to show you a film,” and he showed me The Red Shoes for the first time. And I was, like, engulfed in the film and loving it, and I heard something and I looked over and he was asleep. He was snoring. So this is for Uncle Francis. Put it in my bag.”
