    • Michelangelo Antonioni. L’avventura. My favorite among Antonioni’s trilogy of alienation (La notte and L’eclisse are the other two). For me, these films capture the slow and painful death of love with astonishing intuition and almost no dialogue.
    • Jean-Luc Godard. Contempt. This was a film I watched again and again before making The Two Faces of January. Not only for the Mediterranean backdrop and colors but for the way it showed a woman falling out love with her husband over a single incident.
    • Louis Malle. The Fire Within. The best film about alcoholism I’ve ever seen. Not so much about drinking as the alcoholic’s search for meaning in a world that is slowly losing definition.
    • Federico Fellini. La dolce vita. For all its other virtues, it is the party scenes that have stuck with me. I feel like I’ve been to many parties like these.
