Obsessed with movies, philosophy, and pasta — but mostly pasta. The Safdie Brothers’ Good Time is when I realized the potential of film to show the many depths of humanity, and Paul Thomas Anderson quickly became my favorite director shortly thereafter. I like trashy horror almost as much as I love Kiarostami, Kurosawa, and Lynch. Avid defender of Despicable Me and Cars 2 as masterpieces of children’s entertainment, and a lover of animation in general.
