[@gazoonman]

No wonder she made song about movies because she really into it

[@sofia-ng5wj]

This is truth

[@angloid5249]

She loves movies.

[@6EndlessNameless9]

She actually knows about the art of film. Thats amazing. Great list and remarks.

[@acemoss2878]

I went and followed her on Letterboxd and now she has The Swimmer and Funeral Parade of Roses in her 4! The TASTE, fucking iconic

[@LukeExists]

She puts on a helluva show in concert. Can't recommend seeing her enough! Glad she has some great film takes as well.

[@ActuallyDarcy]

Saw her in Melbourne and I almost regret not buying tickets for both nights, it was a great show

[@AB-sw4kb]

I'm going to see her at Red Rocks and in Boulder!

[@GriffinDuyThespian]

one of them people that if i ever met in person i would fall in love with 100% no doubt

[@kaustubhpabba6664]

[@nicholasraditya3168]

Her taste in movies really reflected her art & aesthetic in music. Such a great artist.

[@sonicgrub]

Another badass moment from Natalie.

[@thevoid99]

oh, i love her tastes. "possession" is a film that i have never recovered from and it still scares the fuck out of me.

[@Whitestripe71]

I was looking for a nice, light, easy-going film to watch, so I think I'll give Siberiade a go. 👍

[@Joselitty]

I love this cuz I fell in love with her music when I discovered her song, “Movies” 🤩

[@Driv3rMadness]

What an exceptional interview. What a great selection of films, and a magnificent dissection of them.

[@Dangermoose-rv6bb]

There was no interview!

[@basehead617]

Jesus god almighty she is absolutely gorgeous

[@jordansitt7468]

Seeing her perform her song Movies is unreal. She’s a great performer and has some awesome clips/visuals for the song. Loved it!

[@Sea_witch_]

I love this girl so much, I just find her very mystical, she's amazing.

[@angloid5249]

I could listen to her talk for hours about movies

[@kevinmuendo9889]

S tier list - great and intimate knowledge to back each pick best one ive seen so far

[@moeezS]

Haven't heard of Siberiade actually, so now on my watchlist thanks! Very dope arthouse selection.

[@guywholivesforart]

Quality choices, and given her taste, very fitting.

[@MaryweatherWA]

yesssss love her

[@mattiemcdonald2477]

i love her

[@pglima27]

Queen

[@olegsoben]

Wow, for a Russian that I am it was a surprise to learn about Natalie's favourite movie of all time, I thought that she would pick up some cool intellectual movie but I expected something like David Lynch's work. Number 1 came as a huge surprise

[@gottmttunsk3502]

yeah she has a very eclectic taste, but it doesn't come off as pretentious. very sincere

[@imnotlarry]

Good Lord she is gorgeous

[@KevinJohnson-yz2tb]

Fun fact: the guy who directed Siberiade also directed Tango & Cash.

[@guzinmusic]

You can tell that she really love the art of cinema❤

[@AZ-hg6kw]

Thank you, Maddam Weyes! I'm absolutely checking these films out. Love your music of course!

[@mysticdaisies]

Y’all knew what you were doing with putting Possession in the thumbnail

[@jednodetepojeopacov]

Now she is even more awesome

[@rbriggs89]

Great taste. Loved Titanic Rising. Fantastic artist.

[@deadbird1229]

Impeccable taste

[@frankrogers2968]

Wow - she's really cool! I've gained a newfound respect for her.

[@maylikeu]

love her

[@lamb_214]

Love her so much

[@jasonme3557]

Really cool. Love your music. Ill check out the films too.

[@noam1121]

i think im inlove

[@antonioiago3472]

i love her so much

[@VKovchik]

Siberiade caught me way off guard, not an obvious pick even for soviet cinima. I should probably rewatch and actually finish it lol

[@educostanzo]

"It says so much in that 6 hours" girl, I hope it does because 6 hours is really a lot of time to say anything.

[@marcela6994]

my queen

[@boggy.subtitulos]

She's the love of my life

[@spenceriris]

I'll check these out thanx

[@davi595960]

We can like movies from the Soviet Union lmao love u weyesssss

[@JidionisthebiggestMenace]

Great video bro, This is a very good top 4.

[@iago496]

Taking Off - Miloš Forman Possession - Andrzej Żuławski Hardcore - Paul Schrader Siberiade Andrei Konchalovsky,

[@beatnathan]

Hardcore is so overlooked. One of Schrader's best.

[@brunosantos9551]

She loves movies, indeed

[@sandrobakhtadze219]

content i needed

[@JarnePauwels]

Big flex

[@celebrityauthor7942]

I've watched a few of these and she has a more interesting selection than most of the actors and directors featured in this series

[@johnwilliams4658]

Nothing controversial about loving Soviet cinema. That so many great films were made under such a repressive regime, is a testament to the people.

[@bacht4799]

I really want to see Possession but it’s so difficult to find it plus one place I found it it’s was too expensive sadly so but maybe I would get lucky at some point …!

[@tommyo.3535]

She posted that "bring DVDs to the show" post AFTER the Asheville one 😤😤 bro you know I woulda cooked up some "I bet you would enjoy this" type filmé to the show had I known ughhhhhhhhh

[@Rupawl]

WEHESBLODD I KOVE UOU FORVER

[@jensbondarenko9195]

One of the smartest persons I ever experienced.

[@sel__ina]

MY FUCKING GOD I LOVE HER! TASTE!!!

[@womp3571]

I just found this woman and she's my religion now

[@SmartVandelay]

Only 6 hours long? Those are rookie numbers! Watch Dekalog, a breezy 10 hours!

[@guywholivesforart]

Dekalog is a television show, though; I don't think it was meant to be watching in one sitting. Something like Lav Diaz's Evolution of a Filipino Family might be more fitting (or Ashraf Shishir's The Innocence, if you want to go long; while the film is in acts, I think it's meant to be watched continuously).

[@jan-pieterthart5521]

she loves movies

[@ceciliaaflores]

How am I barely seeing this

[@rev9224]

In Japan she knows Wim Wenders - Wings of Desire (Der Himmel über Berlin), but you know, she felt really bad at that time...

[@hazelvergara9379]

i love you!

[@dinarkhayrutdinov7663]

She has fire film taste

[@pinkbeatle2012]

possession is a great choice remarkable weird movie.

[@Starkardur]

When Musicians have better taste than Actors

[@j0n.p]

Apparently it's controversial to like anything Russian? Lol ok.

[@agustinas.3247]

random petition: MITSKI NEXT

[@Betta66]

😍😍

[@sooperheep]

Possession AND Hardcore!? Goddamn just when I thought I couldn’t be more in love with her. I took a first date to Trouble Every Day and it didn’t end well, I feel like Natalie would’ve been up for it

[@Steppenwolf1984]

Te pinches amo, Natalie.

[@brekai]

Ada ada saja

[@jensbondarenko9195]

Is there any election in the US this year? She would be a smart president.

[@idiotdoomspiral666]

be still my beating heart

[@idiotdoomspiral666]

amazing picks

[@MrEWilliamson]

She needs to watch The Swimmer.......like right now.

[@pucks4754]

guys i think she loves movies

[@engurland]

Why is it controversial to say she enjoys a Soviet film?

[@daintiestquarters3411]

We have the same taste in movies. I wonder if we could go out. 😢

[@flatus69]

TRY " A HIDDEN LIFE " BY TERENCE MALICK

[@progressiveRAMONETTI]

Santa Madre

[@ghost__chips]

LOML

[@AntiEstablishmentRhetorician]

Six hour Siberian film with oil drilling. Riiiight.

[@MrBfg586]

Why is it controversial for her to love Siberia?

[@rickygravestone2852]

Weyes Blood and Father John Misty. Enough said.

[@revdckmz]

Her profile is empty

[@svds_studio]

Cool interview, but why god _why_ feeling the need to shorcut her answers by chopping up any pauses in her talk. Why not just leave it flow like a natural conversation, taking time is ok.

[@maxmonas7131]

There's a few types of "four favorites" on Letterboxd. 1. The completely honest obvious picks that everyone has seen. 2. Trying to be impressive by only picking really obscure movies. 3. A mix of 1 and 2.

[@7barsofchocolate]

that last one…oof 😬

[@MuhammadAhmad-oj6mf]

Possession is a fucked up movie!

[@ihavetourettesfcksht6130]

Is this lady speaking about the original film "Possession" from 1981? Remember watching this and thinking it was just art house garbage but a lot of people really like it. I'm not going to watch Siberia.

[@hazzy1966]

She needs help lol

[@user-pm9pw6cj4c]

scorcheesy sucks. but these films look good!
