[@reddy272]

To whoever edited this, thank you SO much for putting all 4 of the person's movies together, instead of splitting them up.

[@ErikSilva-hj6eg]

brady corbet has come a long way man, cool to see him getting so much love

[@MrViews-ij3tx]

Vox Lux is criminally underrated.

[@helvete_ingres4717]

@@ErikSilva-hj6eg I probably would've liked childhood of a leader except for the fact it was recommended to me with a ludicrous level of hype as literally the greatest film of the 21st century (which it is nowhere near, of course)

[@Locusto199]

“You Were Never Really Here” is so great, never talked about enough and JP is tremendous in it.

[@jon8004]

People will start talking about it more when Ramsay's next movie, starring Jennifer Lawrence, comes out.

[@Dmpr35]

The movie that Joker wanted to be

[@Locusto199]

@@jon8004 I hadn’t heard about her new film, thanks. Looked it up, luckily the premise wasn’t very detailed, I like going in cold so I’m not watching any trailers. Cast is great. Hopefully it comes out sooner than later, and we don’t have to wait too long.

[@CinematicGestures]

This is maybe the most “art house” / cinephile choices of any red carpet event. Marketa Lazarova is a deep cut, brutal pick.

[@THEOBSEEN]

but also jurassic park twice

[@BROJANGSTER]

@@THEOBSEEN it's too bad felicity jones couldn't fully own including jurassic park without being all like "but only cuz nostalgia, guys! i'm an arteest!"

[@THEOBSEEN]

@ RIGHT! It’s not a guilty pleasure. It’s a legitimately great film

[@mysticsaxophone4181]

Also Hard to be a God is an ace choice. This dude seems my kind of dude

[@johnnyc.4761]

Look up poor things four favorite

[@CINEMARTYR]

Buffalo 66, masterpiece. Possibly my favorite cinematography of all time.

[@Sokrates04]

It's one of my favourites too! Can you think any other film that has similar cinematography?

[@CINEMARTYR]

@@Sokrates04 Yeah, not off the top of my head. It's really unique. :-)

[@finnhaverkamp]

I 'effin love it, but I can't recommend it to anyone haha. I'm like so hey, do you want to watch a movie about a guy who gets a out of prison and really needs to pee and he kidnaps a girl and swears a lot and it's about childhood trauma but it has a happy ending?

[@CINEMARTYR]

@@finnhaverkamp haha totally!

[@Beautiful_Doors_of_Sweden]

It is so good I was blown away by it.

[@thundercheeks1989]

Uh, best episode of this ever? Enjoyable and surprising, some great picks.

[@drdavid1963]

Great to see Felicity Jones picking Trust. It never gets mentioned and it is one of my favourites.

[@ANDRE1mang]

Adrien Brody had a solid list. Moonlight was also bought up and that was so cool

[@TheBadBuffalo]

Loved all their picks, big shoutout to Ghost Dog

[@NAmania]

1:52 That switch from Home Alone to Bicycle Thieves with accompanying change in tone and facial expression was inadvertendly hilarious! 😂

[@firmasyahrian2483]

Come and See, You Were Never Really Here, and American Psycho in one list. That lady is up to something.

[@malibu_rum]

Small captions identifying each person might be nice; a tad hard to recognise them all esp when it's the non-actors involved behind the scenes. But we wanna appreciate their choices too!

[@Pat_Springleaf]

it’s weird because they’re always on-and-off - some recent red carpet videos had them, this one doesn’t

[@finnhaverkamp]

Yes please! I don't know nobody in most of these videos

[@AnastasiyaAidyna]

I love that the cast is so perfectly matching, naming the same movies 😂🙈 this is a true ensemble

[@manantial773]

How cool for Stacy Martin to love Breaking the Waves so much and to get to be Lars von Trier leading lady after that, she was truly phenomenal in Nymphomaniac.

[@nbguitar]

I like Adrien Brody's picks the most, De Niro is one of my favorite actors of all time and his Scorsese movies fits him like a glove (especially his gangster roles) and There Will Be Blood is a masterpiece.

[@helvete_ingres4717]

he seems to be an unapologetic film bro

[@antonydharwood]

You Were Never Really Here pick shook me, criminally underrated. What a masterpiece

[@wyattpinto8944]

POLA X wow I've never seen anyone give much credit to this film. One of my faves as well. Love

[@Coco-zu9ob]

I just watched The Big Lebowski again and I laughed so hard. Glad someone picked that.

[@davidmosca9557]

I remember someone once said that "Come and See" is the scariest movie ever made, and it's not even a horror movie. They're 100 percent correct.

[@Mr.Goodkat]

Horror movies never rank among the scariest films ironically.

[@finnhaverkamp]

Holy F the Virgin Spring might be the best movie ever made. So major props to you, whoever you are.

[@finnhaverkamp]

And Buffalo '66! These are my bros and we can hang out if you want to hit be up sometime

[@RyanMichero]

That's Brady Corbet

[@legendaccount3247]

The director of the movie lmao

[@RyanMichero]

Brutalist people be like: Come and See, In the Realm of the Senses, Gummo, and... Jurassic Park

[@typingreallyfast]

Come and See, You Were Never Really Here, *and* American Psycho? She's now in my watchlist.

[@anamariaaninha]

Good thing Mona Fastvold plans to show her daughter the wonderful Fanny and Alexander. My mother introduced me to this masterpiece when I was 10 years old and it is one of my favorite films.

[@acht2849]

Mona Fastvold, Brady Corbet and Daniel Blumberg: finally some real cinephile taste👌

[@olliebramm4586]

I’ll be ready when this movie is actually out near me

[@magicknight13]

Mona Fastvold having the most perfect choices ever ❤

[@richardwhite2921]

Jesus Raffey! Come and See is rough! Brilliant but indeed rough. Also props to Brady for picking Marketa Lazarova. It’s a great film.

[@D21-k6d]

Это первый раз, когда выбор всех участников очень интересен. Особенно выбор Корберта. Вот там безумие! Спасибо, Letterboxd. Продолжайте делать то, что вы делаете ))

[@burritogamer3984]

Brady and Mona's picks, wow! love it

[@Reymei]

This is exactly how I would like my composer's top four films list to look like. Real deep cut, cinephile shit. Daniel Blumber is the real fucking deal.

[@Dirkschneider]

Strong finish with Naked and Manila! I am happy I got to meet Kathrine Cartridge. She was standing alone in a theater lobby waiting to present her movie 3 Steps to Heaven.

[@ernestocaro9802]

First time I’ve seen someone picking Ghostdog, such an underrated movie, one of Forrest Whitaker best movies for sure.

[@jonahrice8203]

The guy who picked it was in the movie as Raymond the ice cream man

[@ernestocaro9802]

@ 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯wtf man I didn’t recognize him.

[@robotmonthly5512]

yeah, the guy who picked it is a Jarmusch regular, lmao be like Travolta picking a Tarantino movie as a favorite

[@doudouard1132]

@@robotmonthly5512 be like Travolta picking Pulp Fiction you mean

[@stalker1998_]

Virgin spring, Andrei Rublev, Marketa Lazarova and Har to be a god...Perfect.

[@t19040]

Daniel Blumberg's picks 🔥

[@thunderwood]

I miss Yuck

[@agabasia5204]

YES

[@JazzBaldwin]

In the realm of the senses 😅makes me surprise for a while

[@kazunarininare]

Isaach!! That man is an international treasure

[@Gonko100]

Brady Corbet is Simon Killer. Blew my mind when I realized that.

[@LarréLarre-m1v]

The last scene of Beau Travail made me want to start the movie over.

[@RyanMichero]

This is the rhythm of the night...

[@buried4430]

One of the most bold endings I’ve seen in any film

[@BioKillax69]

Maybe the best lineup of films in one of these videos, nothing but bangers.

[@JesseMunoz]

These are my favorite videos on KZbin. I love hearing everyone's picks but is it possible to start adding the person picking's name on the screen? It would be super helpful for a lot of the people that aren't as well known or are usually behind the camera.

[@nwgverified]

Perfect list from adrien brody

[@morgainenyc]

Wonderful cinema picks.

[@dnl286]

Did not know Daniel Blumberg did the music/score for this. Cool!

[@MsTriangle]

Great, great picks from everyone!

[@Sunny31310]

Most relatable LB interviews I've seen..

[@Bringmethehorizondude]

In the realm of the senses is a crazy pick

[@albertogonzalez7838]

Love Stacy Martin's four faves

[@chamindujanith6337]

Nice to see The Servant love.

[@williamwalsh4217]

Felicity Jones does not need to be embarrassed picking Jurassic Park. That is an all time great movie

[@calebjeter6012]

Felicity Jones is so stunning

[@LAZISH]

Good taste!!!!!!

[@merlincasketcrusher5773]

Hard to be a God is such a great pull.

[@Gypsywasteland]

Best movie ever made

[@gordoncampbell8762]

Broady’s choices are perfect

[@helvete_ingres4717]

they were actually dull, monotonous nothing quirky or surprising, no interesting juxtaposition he seemed to understand the exercise in a fundamentally boring way, like 'name some movies you think are good'

[@jcole4517]

Quirky picks….? 🤪

[@helvete_ingres4717]

@@jcole4517 well yes, why not try to make it interesting, or imply some kind of tension such as exists within life (the tragic, the comic, and so on) 'name some films you think are good' isn't a very interesting exercise certainly not when they're namedropping canonical names like tarkovsky the only way for that to be interesting is when a director likes a film that isn't actually good like paul Thomas Anderson's love for Robert altman's Popeye adaptation

[@MacIntoshMann]

@@helvete_ingres4717 If those were actually his favourite films then why on earth should he give a damn about being perceived as “interesting”? Should he have lied?

[@goldiewatches]

@@helvete_ingres4717 You sound exhausting.

[@samuelzins5089]

Awesome that this movie was compared to 2 of Brody's favorites

[@atomskthepirateking2776]

Jurassic Park and There Will be Blood all time favorites

[@MH-yu7gw]

Yes Jurassic Park and Home Alone!!!

[@thelameg6]

GOOD GOD THIS IS LIKE PEAK

[@_sim0nn637]

Hard to Be a God is a really good choice

[@GiantEyeOne]

Gummo! Buffalo 66! Ghost Dog! Great picks!

[@sevsalpali]

Joe Alwyn ❤

[@Redditfanboy-v2s]

Great video bro

[@JimiJames]

Finally buffalo 66!!!

[@DAPODGOD]

Jurassic park got two shoutouts 😂

[@nms7872]

I thought Corbet would drop some Michael Haneke movies on his top 4 before it got narrowed down to one type of movie. can always count on at least one mention in these videos of either scorsese, coppola, kubrick or bergman

[@portland9880]

Oshima mentioned

[@Luca0326]

I took note, they mentioned really interesting films, some even not so well known...😉 I would love it if Raffey Cassidy opened the account, I'm sure it would provide a lot of satisfaction, from the choices she has made you can see that she has culture about cinema!😉🎬

[@MattyBohemia]

Oh shit, these are some art house, deep cuts.

[@filmwitchpod]

Isaac!!! ❤❤❤

[@shireenqasimm]

YES JOE

[@gebbo221]

THERE WILL BE BLOOD MENTIONED 🔥🔥🔥🔥🗣🗣🗣 WTF IS A MILKSHAKE

Воистину собрали в этот проект людей по интересам))))

[@rasmusjohansen6190]

Great picks by Raffey Cassidy! Also pretty badass to pick Gummo!

[@Beautiful_Doors_of_Sweden]

I think some of the best ones are: Hero, A Swedish love story, Blue is the warmest color, Whats eating Gilbert Grape, Prisoners, Chinatown, Taxi Driver and Cinema Paradiso. Sorry couldnt stick to only 4.

[@muditagarwal7883]

Adrien Brody is literally me.

[@shiobuzz3724]

2:36 was not expecting Gummo lol

[@BUSHlD0]

These guys killed it. Naming so many of my favorite films of all time. I still don’t get the Jurassic Park thing though. Maybe I’m too old. Why not Raiders, or Close Encounters And Hell Yeah for buffalo 66, maybe the first of possibly second time someone has said the title. It’s really good, even if Vincent is crazy

[@Adamdow95]

The Deer Hunter / Jurassic Park / Home Alone / Godfather II (& Taxi Driver)

[@pika2010]

Hard to be a God is a savage pick!

[@ChrisThomson-y7l]

Felicity Jones is so pretty

[@juanescobedo6380]

hard to be a god is sooo good

[@Garrett1240]

Brady Corbett is the next great american director

[@goatcheese4me]

It's funny how these actors give all of these thought-provoking films that not as many people are familiar with, then feel like they have to explain why they chose Jurassic Park. JP was a fantastic film. There's no shame in choosing that being one.

[@philpalmares]

Good Fellas. Pulp Fiction. Se7en. Boogie Nights

[@SRXT09]

in the realm of the senses is a wild pick 😂

[@frankgallagher8760]

I havent heard of a lot of these films lol

[@Gypsywasteland]

Hard to be a god mentioned wow. One of the greatest films ever made. Disgusting masterpiece

Finally, some good fucking food
