Talking Movies: Contemporary World Filmmakers in Interview | Jason Wood
15 posts
"A culmination of more than ten years of interviews, Talking Movies is a collection of conversations with some of the most audacious and respected contemporary filmmakers of the present generation. Several of these in-depth discussions have already featured in publications such as Vertigo and Enthusiasm, and there are over fifteen interviews exclusive to this book. The names included here are those at the cutting edge of cinematic style the world over, those whose work has defined how images are processed and appreciated by modern audiences. Directors frankly discussing their craft and the social, political and technological forces that inform it including Claire Denis and Bertrand Tavernier (France), Guillermo del Toro, Alejandro Gonzlez Irritu and Carlos Reygadas (Mexico) Hal Hartley and Richard Linklater (USA), Stephen Frears and Andrew Ktting (UK), Nuri Bilge Ceylan (Turkey), Atom Egoyan (Canada), Lucrecia Martel (Argentina) and John Hillcoat and Nick Cave (Australia)."--Publisher description.

#TLT @dabbe

1. Jeff Bridges

2. Steve Buscemi

3. Humphrey Bogart

There are probably a dozen or more other names I could rotate through this list.

Tag whoever hasn't played yet!

dabbe I know! Narrowing to 3 is hard, plus I might change my mind in an hour!
1. #thedudeabides 🤩
2. SB is incredible. He can be supremely evil and funny at the same time!
3. Bogie's my babe. Next to my husband, of course!
Thanks for playing! 🧡💜💛

Saw this on the Gram. So accurate! I am such a book to movie snob.

madamereadsalot1 I'm literally at a bar discussing how much better a book was vs the movie ... 😂 5y
KatieDid927 This is also me. 5y
Erinreadsthebooks Me, constantly: "You know that's a book, right?" "Did you know it's actually a book they made into a movie?" "Yep, such a good book." ? 5y

Not book related: are there any Littens who use Letterboxd? It‘s like Goodreads but for movies 🎥

I‘m still deep in my Epic Reading Slump so I‘ve been binging movies and tv shows 😅

#TuesdayTidbits
@JenlovesJT47

1. The Hunger Games.
2. Depends, but usually the original cover is better.
3. I believe it is going to be made into a movie, so I'd like to see a movie adaptation of Bird Box.
4. @OrangeMooseReads, guessing you probably already did this, but if not then consider yourself tagged.

⚡️ A Clockwork Orange
⚡️ So many.. Clockwork, The Dark Crystal, The Nightmare Before Christmas, Wizard of Oz, Guys and Dolls, anything Fred Astaire & Ginger Rogers. I can go on and on with this list
⚡️Ever After. I don‘t know why but it‘s my go-to when I need noise.
⚡️Sometimes I want candy, sometimes I want popcorn, sometimes I want both.
