I was at this talk. Andrew is a real inspiration, and he's knocked it out of the park again with All Of Us Strangers.

What a smart guy, the way he explains the shots, the music, it all makes sense. There are so many layers into this work, specially in All of Us Strangers. Thank you Andew for sharing your art with the world, thank you for making outstanding and unique films.

Sad at the way Looking is now being viewed. I loved it! And the Looking movie too. p.s. team, Ritchie!

*PURE AND LATENT LONELINESS!!!* - It's this gay being from the 80s, loaded with all forms of prejudice in the family, at school, etc., that permeated the time. This revisiting "his parents" was the catharsis that the character found (writing the script) to say who he became. Sad and lonely for years, without even being able to have a relationship with another man. Setback, the personification of Love appears in front of him, and wrapped in fears, traumas, and without realizing the speed of time, he gradually allows himself to be enchanted by the possibility of loving and letting himself be loved, of filling the void that the Human Being has as his greatest tragedy! But temporal cruelty, in the most vile and real way, because Death is the "game over", only glimpses the pleasure of having someone as the Central Character... The end, in the Darkness of Time, in a plane that opens up , we have maintained there in infinity, the multiplicity of finiteness, the plurality of All of us! It's to cry, yes..... 😥😥😥😥

I really enjoyed this and happily discovered more of his work I wasn't aware of to check out. Andrew Haigh is such an intelligent filmmaker and an inspiration given it did not happen early in his career. He is supremely confident behind the camera and each of his features are somehow delicate but robust. He draws wonderful performances and the variety of his work has to be acknowledged even if his biggest works are ultimately queer stories. A wonderful talent,

That trailer of All of Us Strangers already has me in the feels. Jesus phacking christ. One becomes such a softie the older one gets I swear. Great filmmaker. Looking forward to it (and not at the same time because I am not looking forward to the emotional breakdown) Lol

Great interview, thanks! So glad that ample time was spent on both Lean on Pete and The North Water. I do think that the choice of clip from Looking may give those who haven't seen the 2 series+movie a slightly misleading impression. In fact, the cardinal strength of Looking, as in all of Andrew Haigh's work, is in the relationships of the characters. And as in all his projects, the casting is wonderful, without a single weak link. Beautiful episodes such as Patrick and Richie getting to know each other over the course of a day (Season 1) or Doris, Dom and Patrick's trip to Modesto for the funeral of Doris's father (Season 2) are lovely examples of how much a film director/writer can do within a half-hour TV format.

This film is a triumph on all fronts. It was great to see that it, and some cast members, were nominated for a BAFTA award, thought, quite shockingly, Andrew Scott wasn't. Now we have the disgraceful situation whereby the film itself is only going to be available on streamed media not as a DVD or Blu Ray. What an insult to the filmmakers, the cast, the gay community and audiences as a whole. This push to end physical media by the big studios should be resisted by anyone who loves films and wants to own a copy rather than be subjected to the money-grabbing whims of the studios who just want to rent our the experience for a limited time..
