Transcript
Are you familiar with Letterboxd? I am, yeah. Better, so you know the question we're gonna ask you? What's my favorite aspect ratio? Four favorite movies. Oh, yeah. You no, that's right. My number one, favorite film of all time is Bruce Robinson's With No and I. Very funny film. It's a it's a wonderful script, beautifully acted, and quite poignant and bad, at the same time. For me it's kind of a perfect film. I also like The Big Blue best because it's so visual and beautiful. It's one of those films that always stuck with me. Sexy Beast, Beast, credible film. They could make film school one one semester could be just studying sexy best. Maybe Ronan. I love Ronan. Incredible chase scene. And a subsection of favorites under Ronan in all the Bourne movies. That sort of covers the whole gamut.
