This is my all time favorite interview with any filmmaker that I have ever seen. I come back to watch it in full once every few months. Particularly his final remark about the beauty of how art ages over time really moves me.

Say what you want about his films, but Gray is head and shoulders the best interviewee in the game

@thomaspearmain 4 года назад

Absolutely. The way he talks so articulately about opera, literature and painters (and of course film) makes him such an interesting person to hear speak. I recommend his recent interview on The Ringer's movie podcast. Do you have any interviews with Gray that you can suggest to me?

Thomas Pearmain he did a tiff talk about the yards that’s on RU-vid and is interesting and funny

Listening to James Gray talking about movies is always a blast, he is a natural comdien.

If this filmmaking thing doesn't work out for Gray, he could make a living doing impressions; He's HILARIOUS in that regard.

James Gray is always a great storyteller in settings like these. I'm actually a bigger fan of his oratorical skills - his knowledge of film and his humour and his anectotes - than I am of his movies. Agree so much about Gwyneth Paltrow wasting her talents on Goop and superhero movies. She's so astonishing in Seven, Shakespeare in Love, The Talented Mr Ripley, Great Expections, A Perfect Murder and Sylvia.

@alechats5184 Год назад

im on the same boat as you haha i even think its funny because his movies are good i mean i dont know if any of them is like great - i really love two lovers but outside of that idk. but just the way he talks hes probably like the most interesting filmmaker in this aspect. Also Gwyneth Paltrow was pretty great in Royal Tenenbaums too

James Gray is amazing, one of the best filmmakers working today. The Lost City of Z was the best movie of 2017.

@SantaKlaus1981 4 года назад

no he didnt...his movies got high percentage of being a failure in box office....i am not a movie maker or related to movie but seeing how his movies through box office database...it is painful ( the movie is good but got no return money )

35 is not better than digital and the two greatest living cinematographers (Roger Deakins and Emmanuel Lubezki) agree. Digital is not only cheaper but it looks better.

@lamentate07 5 лет назад

Where has Deakins said that digital is better than film? He says it's more convenient, but in terms of picture quality, I have never seen him claim that digital is better. Do you have an interview you could link me too?
