omg I never thought I'd see greg on this 😭 I love c.a.s. like pleaseeee this is in my tops for criterion, other than the willem dafoe, bille hader and the hawkes ones.
This is an amazing and revealing jewel! Greg always speaks about his love of cinema but never reveals as much as he did in 5 minutes, wow, man you worked and auditioned for Mike Leigh and Scorsese? ✨✨✨ thanks for this Criterion, love, fan number 1 of CAS.
He’s mic’ed pretty tight, so if you’re talking to him within arm’s reach in person, he probably sounds like this. That closet is an nyc utility closet, so there’s nowhere for the sound waves to go.
It's about time someone chose The Last Picture Show. Great film. Two of the best written and delivered soliloquies in any film ever. I'm surprised it's not selected by more actors and actresses.
CAS put on an amazing show in San Antonio the other night. Love this guy and that voice. The Red Shoes 👠 👠 Has great taste in music: Cocteau Twins, Julee Cruise, and Françoise Hardy.
It’s great that Criterion has two Rohmer box sets but none cover my favorite period for Rohmer - the 80’s. I’d love a comedies and proverbs box set with The Green Ray and Pauline at the Beach!
I'm surprised that a musician wouldn't mention that the music in "La Bamba" was performed by the great L.A. band Los Lobos. If you don't know their music, give 'em a listen. Added in edit: I love Greg's story of d hurrying from Hollywood Video store to Hollywood Video store with his girlfriend to buy bargain Criterion DVDs. Great!
Only saw The Worst Person In The World last year as I'd heard people rave about it but for some reason was convinced I wouldn't like it all that much. How wrong I was. I loved it.
Tell me you're a musician without telling me you're a musician, hahaha!! All black clothes and sunglasses? Check! He does have good film stories and "Tales of Hoffmann" isn't discussed enough.
Why the hell is HE in the closet snagging expensive movies for free? If they stopped giving away their movies to showbusiness folk, perhaps CC can lower their prices for the rest of us.
@@tonyseybert8068 we ask him this every time he pops up and he can never actually answer the question, he _always_ bails because he knows the jig is up
His love of Criterion is so genuine and endearing!
He could start an ASMR channel.
He did start an asmr band...
Man I could listen to Greg’s voice forever, & I will 😍
omg I never thought I'd see greg on this 😭 I love c.a.s. like pleaseeee this is in my tops for criterion, other than the willem dafoe, bille hader and the hawkes ones.
I could listen to him talk about movies for hours
Bonus Features in the Headshots! Love these.

Damn didn't know Criterion is into ASMR
The Tales of Hoffmann is so great!
Does he stop doing the voice when he gets home?
He’s mic’ed pretty tight, so if you’re talking to him within arm’s reach in person, he probably sounds like this. That closet is an nyc utility closet, so there’s nowhere for the sound waves to go.
No and he keeps the sunglasses on too. It works out great when he’s cleaning the toaster so he can look cool.
No, his boyfriend thinks it's hip!
I bet your wife's boyfriend likes it tho
What you see is what you get from Greg , he’s a genuine dude.
Even his speaking voice is so intoxicating! ⭐️
It's about time someone chose The Last Picture Show. Great film. Two of the best written and delivered soliloquies in any film ever. I'm surprised it's not selected by more actors and actresses.
I cannot STAND that movie. Pretentious pessimistic cringefest. Literally my least favorite movie. Was really looking forward to seeing it too
_Easily_ a *Top 5* movie for me.
Love his voice, talking or singing, love him

Tales of Hoffmann: marvelous.

Agreed, but you have to include Full Moon In Paris as well!
@@jcole4517 absolutely
Omg yes!!!
ugh this is MUCH needed
I love Greg González

The whole point of the movie is that everyone is really self-serving and superficial. That he thinks it is genuine...
Thought for sure we were gonna get some Lynch! Every time I listen to this band, my mind goes right to sequences in Lynch films.
Love to see someone picking The Worst Person in the World. That movie spoke to me more than most.
Have never heard his band but bro really got great taste in movies! Lucky to be growing up with a father that was a film distributor too!
If their music is your style, it’s going to hit hard.
YOURE UP FOR A TREATTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT
Their music is very chill rock, I saw them last night live and I had never really listened to them but I fell in love with their songs
Listen to Baby Blue Movie
Blockbuster was great but I also miss Hollywood Video. They used to sell used DVDs, 3 for $15, 4 for $20, which were good deals for that time.
"The Red Shoes" is incroyable.
Bonus points that he selected "The Last Picture Show."
GREST PICKS
THE RED SHOES
TALES OF HOFFMAN
PICNIC AT HANGING ROCK
WELL DONE 😎
I'm a simple person. I see someone pick Rohmer, I automatically give it a thumbs up.
Same here! 😁
Based.
he loves commentaries as much as I do - I'm already sold lol
Wow!!! Amazing!
Hell yeah Eric Rohmer! And Peter Bogdanovich! And of course I love Greg from Cigarettes After Sex! It's an all around win here 😊
Obrigada pelas dicas Greg 🖤
The Worst Person in the World mentioned!!! 🇳🇴
he finally came out of black and white
take his glasses off you're gonna find judge doom eyes
I LOVE CASSSSS
Of course this is the guy from Cigarettes After Sex
More butch than I imagined...
Me 🤝🏼 Greg Gonzalez
Picking La Bamba
He picked some good ones, though.
If his band doesn't make it , he's got a great 70's FM radio voice!📻
Was a time all I listen to for like almost a year was Cigarettes After Sex. And LOW…
Didn't expect him to be so light in his loafers, but seems like a lovely man with delicious taste.
Criterion ASMR
why is he wearing sunglasses?
Because he thinks it makes him look cool!
@@ruling528 exactly
Who cares? Why does it matter?
@@ruling528No, it’s not because he thinks he’s cool, he IS cool. And humble
He always does. I saw CAS in concert and he came out with them on
I have a crush on this man
Drop the sun glass affect
This is exactly what people think cinephiles are like. Of course he called his band 'Cigarettes After Sex'.
my dad
I loveeeee greg 🖤
Bangers with babish
Tell me you're a musician without telling me you're a musician, hahaha!! All black clothes and sunglasses? Check! He does have good film stories and "Tales of Hoffmann" isn't discussed enough.
Can you dig that DJ vibe...or not?
Danny Gonzalez' dad
is this a joke, i can't tell
Awesome
you got phonesexvoice guy on here but wont upload matt johnsons picks??
😊😊😊😊😊😊good
he talks like Louis Litt
Being gay is acceptable. Don't hide it.
is he andy warhol reincarnated?
He wishes!
cutie pie
pie box
No reason to wear sunglasses indoors.
He must haven invented the "Well actually"/"You're a fan? Can you name..." hipster voice OMG lol
Was a fan till I saw them live. Cornball
Yeah this guy totally seems like he isn't trying way to hard to impress us
People can actually enjoy things (+ talk about said things in their own manner) without wanting to impress anyone.
This comment section is tasteless
Wow. Never made it to one minute after an upload before.
Got that hipster dufas things down cold (sunglasses, voice and Ricky business)
This is weird, what qualifies this guy to be in the CC closet?
A band with like 30 million monthly listeners? 😂
@UnwiredClips
Never heard of him. 🤷♀️
Nothing to see here. just a hipster demigod in the Criterion Closet. Move along young ones.
This dude gives off mega creepy vibes. Hide your drinks ladies. Yikes
More like, guys hide your drinks!
More like guys hide your ladies!

That's quite possibly the worst band name I've ever heard
How many band names have you heard?
Ever heard of the Butthole Surfers?
Uncultured swine
If you actually looked into it, it works perfectly for the music they’re portraying and made them extremely successful.
What a pretentious queen!
Anyone who pronounces it 'bi-opic' shouldn't be allowed to go into the Criterion Closet.
Seems like a nice guy shame his band sucks ass
I don't know about that one chief, their concert is coming up in my hometown two days back to back 20000 capacity stadium
@@LegitoTV popularity doesnt always equal quality.... (eg. film box office)
Seems like you obviously have your mind bent into what you think is good music. It’s just laid back and calming, what’s so horrible about that.
So if this guys gets free movies and access to the closet, than shouldn’t everyone?
Worst Person in the world was alright but kind of forced a woke message at times
How so?
you think Kurosawa movies aren't real movies, get real and stop using the word woke as a synonym for anything you don't like
@@tonyseybert8068 we ask him this every time he pops up and he can never actually answer the question, he _always_ bails because he knows the jig is up
0:19 Not how that word's pronounced, Greg, but continue.
Biopic?
He said bio-pic, didn't he? That's correct. People who pronounced it bi-opic probably don't understand the etymology of the word.
