I do that too. I do that too. Yeah. There's no shame. That's the thing with our podcast. There's no shame. Yeah.
We are cringe, but we're free. Exactly.
One out of three, okay.
Millie, did any come to mind immediately?
Thank you for translating. If you didn't understand that, don't worry, everybody.
Yeah. Yeah, I would say I think that's right on. I think there are some like gateway directors that are like kind of like how, you know, cinephiles sort of like found their way into movies for my age. You know, Millie mentioned I'm very young that. So like I would say Paul Thomas Anderson is a really good director to kind of.
follow his career because he did like boogie nights which is uh art house film i would say but also like a major uh studio film um but then you know he did like there will be blood a few years later which is a lot i would say darker and weirder and um that was like nominated for like best picture and stuff but it kind of is a good way to like get into um
More of the like highbrow, you know, cinephile movies. And then so that's like more on the easier end. And I would say like, you know, we're recording this today. One of the great film directors died. David Lynch, my favorite director. And he's like a great actor.
he's kind of you have to if you want to get into film you have to see some of his movies and i would say the entry point for that for him would be blue velvet i would say yeah it's a weird but it feels weird it feels like this is like no other movie i've ever seen but the plot makes sense and you can understand why things are happening where that cannot
be said for most of his other movies so that's like a good if you want to get into David Lynch I would say start with Blue Velvet
Yeah, totally.
to a great one. Yeah. Yeah.
Well, I think David Lynch is special as an artist, uh, outside of like the movies he made because he, His whole thing was like, you do not need to suffer to make great art. That was like his big message. And I think that a lot of people feel like when you make art or any sort of like project, you're like, you need to die for this. You need to starve yourself, you know?
And I feel like David Lynch was very much like, no, you need to be like, it's better to be a happy person. making art and you can still make art about dark things. And God knows he did, but it's like, you still need to like take care of yourself. And I think that's a good message.
I was shocked. I looked on Letterboxd and no one I follow has watched it. And I was surprised because I was like, it's an incredible film.
I'm a lover, I'm a feeler, and I love digging up these rom-coms no one's watching.
Yeah, you've been behind the scenes now. Oh my God, finally. Yes, I get to emerge from behind the, I don't know. The sweet spot. Yeah, no, I'm thrilled. I mean, it was such an honor that Millie... reached her hand down into the gutter and pulled me out of it and allowed me to be on this pod. Yeah, like Pennywise, yeah.
Well, I saw what you did was ending and Millie wanted to do another show and I was kind of like, well, I was like, Please let me produce it. So that was sort of the impetus, just Millie making a new movie show.
Yeah. I mean, it was just so funny. I feel like up until recently, you're like just checking in, you want to do this show with me. Right. And, um, No, I mean, I feel like Millie and I always like we always connected really well. And I wanted to keep working with her if she wanted to keep making podcasts. So that was sort of the like the beginning of the show.
This is a great question. And actually, I feel like a lot of our show is like about the like movie watching ritual to like what we do when we watch movies. I always get popcorn and I always try to get a cherry Coke. Those are kind of my favorites.
