A Film Bum

Film fanatic, cinema lover, amazed by the wonderful minds of artists like Tarkovsky, Antonioni, Bergman, Lynch and a lot more. The sole purpose of my existence is to watch and make films. Talk to me, I'd love to hear your thoughts and opinions, or just share my love for good movies with you.I love life, movement, change, the inavoidable advance of things,I like to peek into the pit of men´s fears and passions.

Favorite Films: Psycho (1960)

Akira Kurosawa and Martin Scorsese at the 1990 Cannes Film Festival for Kurosawa’s film Dreams.

One day, Martin Scorsese came flying in like a whirlwind. His arms were full of documents, and he rattled on like a machine gun (or so it sounded to those of us who couldn’t understand the language). Not even the veteran interpreter Audie Bock could keep up with him. It turned out he had come by to ask Kurosawa to sign on to a movement to prevent the fading of color film by preserving it in primary colors.

Kurosawa did sign the papers, I believe, but what was most interesting was the strong impression Scorsese evidently made on him that day: Later he asked Scorsese to play the part of Vincent van Gogh in his film Dreams (1990). The image of the two men apparently overlapped in his mind. 

From then on, Kurosawa and Scorsese were like family.
