“Amores perros, Iñárritu. 100%.”

“WALL•E, magic.”

“Mean Streets. Mean Streets is also my neighborhood where I live in New York since 14 years. Later on I started working with Robert De Niro and, walking those streets with him and understanding where I live, of a neighborhood that I have only known since it's already hype and not what it used to be. Seeing it through his eyes, it's something that really, moved me and I never look at the neighborhood the same way. And because we started working in a very different way that I've done with Agnès, but we've started the last couple years working on a very deep project, where I'm often thinking what Agnès would say about this or that. I know she would be super happy cuz I reconnected the two of them 25 years after they've worked together and, and so, it's an incredible journey that I'm in that I'm only ready to do because I think Agnès prepared me for it. So that's something I have to, I have to take.”

“Oh yeah, there's one that's very important to me by Mathieu Kassovitz, La Haine. Because I, I didn't grew up learning about movies much. I think I was just, you know, watching TV and knowing about, you know, just, classic blockbusters. And so I saw that on television, one day, when I was 14 or 13, and it really like moved me because it was the world I knew, but at the same time it was, in an approach, black and white, and there was an artistic approach that hit me. And at the same time I had never thought of being an artist and you know no artist, I didn't even know it was a possibility. So I didn't know there was a world of film and way of creating differently than just, entertainment of what I was seeing as a kid.”

“Louis Garrel, one of my best friends, but also one of amazing actor and director and, this movie, The Innocent, is incredible. Maybe his best. He got also a lot of success for it, so he doesn't need me to say it, but it's really like, if you haven't seen it. So I have to take it.”

“And this one also, a incredible film that really, when you think you've seen everything or you know how a story could be told, this one of the point of view of a donkey will really blow your mind.”

“Roma from Alfonso Cuarón. Roma is a masterpiece. It's just, I don't know what to say. It's just every frame is such a beauty, the story, the depth, all of it. It's just one of my favorite movie ever, director approved, so have to take this one.”

“And the, the coffret of Agnès, is right here and I have the chance to be on it, with Faces Places. But to be honest, in there, there's everything. One that I love from 1975, it's Daguerréotypes. She said, I'll go as far as I'm plugging something in my house, I make it go through the little box and so it plugs my camera and I'm going to go and meet every store in my own street and talk to people. And she lived Rue Daguerre and it's an incredible documentary about a Paris of a time that disappeared, but about also love stories and I don't know, it's just incredible. So of course I have to get this one.”

“Then, Cassavetes.”
