Cuaron didn't direct the mime segment in Paris. He did the one with Drunk Nick Nolte and the baby.

On Of Tarantino's best back story moments
When the Brooklyn girl from Death Proof starts to tell the story of the horrible thing that happened to Rose McGowan's character, then the movie cuts away from her and it's never mentioned again.

To me what makes Linklater Linklater is the insane detail he brings to his milieu, I always feel like I'm there in the action rather then being separate from it. That's just as true in The Bad News Bears, or The Newton Boys (IE his films that don't work), as his certified classics.

I still say that Selick would make the greatest Sandman ever.

Arcade Fire
I've always thought that Springsteen should release an album of Arcade Fire covers. and vica versa.

Wilder as a visual stylist
Anyone who thinks that Wilder isn't a great visual stylist should be forced to watch the office scenes in The Apartment and the mansion set scenes in Sunset Blvd. Alex DeLarge style until it sinks in.

Miller
I'm the only one disappointed Frank Miller isn't on this list aren't I.

Tonight Is What It Means To Be Young
I like to think The Gaslight Anthem stepped bodily out of Streets Of Fire like Athena from the head of Zeus.
