Going to an interview for film school tomorrow and using this to brush up on one of my favourite directors, great video!

Curious to know after 4 years. How did the interview go

@@romaasrani Really, thank you so much for this comment, seeing this again really made my day... happy to say that I got in, and graduated with a first class degree in film this past May, and I specialised in directing! It was so lovely to see this comment today and remember where it all began!

[@romaasrani]

Read To Me At Midnight Woww!!! This is wonderful. Am glad you made it😊😊. He is one of my favourite directors as well. I used to listen to him every time I loose focus about my craft. Your comment made my day too

This guy is such a fucking genius. Still, to this day, my favourite Mendes film is Road To Perdition. It’s a perfect movie. Can’t wait to see 1917.

[@shanehughes3511]

Having seen 1917 I can say it's 100% gonna be his legacy picture. Pure perfection

Sam Mendes, I'm Julia Grigorian, I'm genius number One in the world alive. Please discover me and let Leonardo DiCaprio play in my film "Inglorious Basterds-2" my brother, if Zac Efron is not able to do that. I want to play myself. Please be the producer of my films. The script is on WordPress. God bless you.

Incredibly overrated film director. His films look visually stunning but ultimately are empty. He’s probably a better theatre director.

@NERD GANGANGANG Did u really have to call him stupid and idiot? Couldn't u have just given your opinion and respected his? Ur like shooting a guy who just has a banana with him with you giving out some "OPINIONS" and "philosophies" of other people; he just stated his opinions without "philosophies." And brother...I agree with you and not with him that Sam Mendes is a great director.
