Roy Andersson

I think this is one that will take some time, and I don't know that audiences are gonna warm to it, but I do think there's an opportunity there if they actually go see it.

I p- I clocked this about a couple trailers ago like, oh, this is Iñárritu's Roy Anderson film, and I'm a great admirer of Roy Anderson.

And a lot of his aesthetic is right out of the films of that Swedish filmmaker Roy Anderson, which very few people have seen.

Yeah, no one here knows who you're talking about.

Yeah, I have no idea who you're talking about.

I just made, I made that to buy people's drugs like I don't know.

Do you know Roy Anderson?

Was he a judge?

But mostly you're buying films from the directors you know from the past.

For me, for instance, I would take every film by Roy Anderson, for instance, without to watch.

But if you have David films, if you have films where the directors changed the style of making films... then the script often is not enough.

And if you can see something, you see the sign how they make the film, but you are even, let's say, between three and four and eight months before the International Film Festival release.

You know, I thought that, you know, it's a timeless film to me.

I always thought that it's more like a metaphor for like, you know, Roy Anderson type of film than like a hard science fiction that where I kind of like, you know, say specifically what kind of technology is going on in some year.

And I think this was, It gave me some comfort in thinking that whatever happens, if I make this timeless film about a human being and focus on the characters, it will kind of live on whatever happens.

I definitely, and I didn't even think about that.

Even only having seen these two films, these two films hit me in a way that's just my kind of vibe.

The best way I can describe this movie in particular, and I feel like Fallen Leaves kind of falls into this same description as well, but this one especially, this felt like if Roy Anderson directed a Technicolor romance from the 1960s.

Yeah.

Like imagine Roy Anderson.

What's the pigeon movie? What's the title again?

Something about reflecting, sitting on a branch.
