Charlie Rose Alfonso Cuaron Interview (2004)

[@Winduct]

Interesting how he hints Roma 14 years earlier.

[@kurikuraconkuritas]

and how his idea of the film changed a bit over the years

[@raprockscarlett]

Jaja asíes

[@vickhs]

The way he describes Daniel and Emma is so sweet! They are very lucky to have worked at such a young age with a filmmaker who understands them deeply and sees them with this amount of sensitivity.

[@sonicboom20078]

We also have Alan Horn to thank for merely asking Cuaron to direct this film due to how impressed he was with Y Tu Mama Tambien. One of the greatest decisions a Hollywood exec has ever made!

[@raprockscarlett]

"y tú mamá también" was an excuse of Diego Luna (Cassian Andor in Rogue One) and Gael Garcia (Mozart on the jungle) to be gays and does all of this dirty things in front of a camera.

[@gocookies77]

Gosh I was 13 when this movie came out. Amazing work from everyone involved

[@chrisszyyy]

i wish he did Goblet of Fire. That would have been interesting

[@HowToWatchMovies]

Incredible director. Does a killer interview.

[@Horror-Man]

His was by far the best Potter film.

[@maxorcism]

very good advice that guillermo del toro gave alfonso.. serve the material when you’re directing something that has source material, especially as an up and coming director.. then you unlock the door creatively but also corporately to make your film, your passion project.

[@camilapicardo990]

I could listen to Alfonso Cuaron talk about directing all day

[@joewhitehead3]

He definitely took a real artistic approach to the series

[@christopheraparicio3387]

I love his answer regarding politics.

[@ankit44721]

He knew his future

[@сиднипрескотт-щ3л]

Great director. I wish he directed the rest HP movies

[@v.a.1959]

Thanx for this.

[@AswinBalu]

19:10 Roma

[@adrianreyes787]

He wasn't talking about Roma. He was talking about this sad, sad event that took place in Mexico, in 1968.

[@haroldandmod]

@@adrianreyes787 yeah but in Roma, that event takes place while Cleo is going into labor

[@chrishernandez3699]

@@haroldandmod no it actually isn't the same. That incident you're referring to took place in the 70s, the student protest massacre took place before the 1968 olympic games.

[@hawjtsim]

Cuaron is very intelligent, even his view on politics is not traditional

[@TheZBUCKNER]

How do you mean

[@raprockscarlett]

Jaja el vato ☝🏼

[@epicmims6295]

You can add ‘profound and prophetic ‘ to describe his views on politics. The spinning of information and choosing the best from the worst are so prevalent now that we hardly bat an eye lid

[@GMeza-cy5xv]

16:18 Charlie Rose - Where do you want it to go to? 16:48 Alfonso Cuaron - I want to keep on GRAVITATING in the Hollywood universe... Ten years later he realeased GRAVITY. He was even planning on doing ROMA, his 2018 movie about the mexican massacre min 19:10

[@raprockscarlett]

Pero él habló de la "Masacre del 68" aunque termino haciendo algo sobre la Matanza del 71 :v

[@ciupenhauer]

fascinating interview

[@GiantSandles]

That was a weird way to start off the interview, reading a review that basically says it's half of a good film

[@ruly8153]

Chris Columbus isn’t given enough credit.

[@Charles12]

True but Alfonso Cuaron really knocked it out of the park

[@chrisszyyy]

8:24 shows Alan Horn's genius. Bet Warner is really missing him now. They effed up DC post Nolan. Clearly no direction

[@drummer8491]

Charlie Rose: "Why tu mama tambyen."

[@BlankRami]

For a Mexican he feels French!

[@gerardoresendiz6731]

I think he Mexican Jewish I’m Mexican

[@gabi.padilla]

13:51

[@vargasinrio]

I miss Charlie

[@gabbyb7347]

Alfonso Cuaron is FAAAAAAAAR more talented than Chris Columbus.

[@joewhitehead3]

Edwin B Alfonso said they were all lucky that Chris made such great decisions

[@gabbyb7347]

​@@joewhitehead3 yes, sure, he's got to be politically correct and praise the previous director (Cuaron had only directed indie films and some of them were foreign ones, ergo he was a nobody at the time to Hollywood's standards). But who's the one with multiple Oscars? and who directed Percy Jackson? nuff said.

[@joewhitehead3]

Edwin B It’s not about being politically correct, it’s about encouraging & lifting other directors up, no matter how successful or not so successful their films are or how many awards they receive or don’t receive

[@gabbyb7347]

@@joewhitehead3 If you see my original comment, I never suggested Columbus was bad at all. I said Cuarón was much better, that's it. I'm sure most movie critics would agree

[@Tobytyty101]

Cuaron literally spent a couple minutes talking about how fantastic Columbus is. To this day he still talks about how Columbus doesn't get enough credit. He's not being "politically correct". Columbus is a great children's director. Even though Percy Jackson might not have been the most accurate film ever, kids who haven't read the books can still find a lot of enjoyment in the movie. It's not fair to say someone is more talented than the other when they literally specialize in drastically different films. The only connection is Harry Potter, and even both of them brought something the other person was unable to bring to the table. Plus, Columbus has worked on a lot more films, so of course he's going to have a not-so-good one here and there. I love Cuaron and he's one of my favorite directors, but presenting an argument that is pretty unwarranted is strange. Columbus is fantastic as well.

[@Aikyiomi]

I didn't recognise him.... hahah
