    Love how you can tell that PTA has so much reverence and respect for Demme, he never interrupts or interjects, he just listens intently

    Silence of the Lambs gripped me from first frame to last. One of the most terrifying movies I've seen... I watched it in an empty theater on a rainy afternoon.

      Then therapists are like: “so that’s when your emotional problems began?” I’m kidding. That’s funny tho. Like when therapists ask: “when do you think it all went wrong for you?” You show then Artax‘a death in A Neverending Story. Hahaha. Do they ask those questions? I imagine I would respond w a film reference like those. Haha.

    PTA has always expressed great admiration for Jonathan Demme, it is clear in the conversation who is the teacher and who is the student.

    Like Bergman, Hitchcock and Fuller, Demme knew this regarding intense head-on close ups:
    "... you show exactly what the character sees, you shoot it exactly from their point of view."

    I need to say a good word for "Beloved", which is hugely under-appreciated. One of Demme's very best, and an adaptation of a novel that should have been just about impossible to film. I have a sincere question: do other people not like it, or do they dismiss it because Demme's a white guy who dared to make a movie about black American characters?

    • @adamzanzie

      I think it's a great film as well, but its dismissal has little to do with Demme being a white guy and more to do with most audiences not having read the book and not being able to understand the film very well. Currently working on a big video essay defense of it.

    It's certainly crazy that he thought Meg Ryan was more talented than Jodie Foster 😂

    Yadda Yadda. There are four story arcs: up, down, up down, down up.

    I can't believe he thought Michelle Pfeiffer, Meg Ryan and Laura Dern were superior than Jodie Freaking Foster
