“Yi Yi. Edward Yang has this thing with people, no? With characters, have this thing that even he has amazing locations, he will never lose his characters. I love him so much.”
“Onibaba, this film I recommend a lot. It's so beautiful. It's a horror film, but it's erotic and super simple with nothing. And I have been all my life like in love of Kabuki, er, Noh theater, so this is for my bag.”
“Boat People, from the beautiful Hong Kong director Ann Hui. She's amazing. She has this thing that you don't know if it's documental, it's a film. Love it.”
“This film, The Prince of Tides, it's wonderful, beautiful. It's that amazing acting and also it's for my mom, that she's a huge fan, fan of Barbra Streisand. Mom, I'm here because of you, so this is for you.”
“It's getting hot. In the Realm of the Senses, a film, Nagisa Oshima. Craziness. I remember that when I watched that this film, no? And beautiful shot, no? With all the purple and all the clothing, but super erotical. I need to watch it again. To my bag.”
“I need to recommend this film, Burden of Dreams. This amazing man, Herzog, not only a filmmaker, but a warrior, traveler. And it's about the Fitzcarraldo journey, because it's not only about films, but it's also about the journeys. So I want this.”
“One of the most funny directors that we need in our lives, Aki Kaurismäki. The Match Factory Girl, so important for me, also in my journey with The Chambermaid. Aki, keep being with that strange, funny filmmaking spirit, total anarchist.”
