This guy is just too amazing, he is calm,elegant,informative and also respects other people, Moonlight was just as incredible and his process of making it.Usually i try to avoid films which try to shed light on issues cuz they come off preachy and have some bad storytelling in it, but this film was a huge exception as the filmmaking was top notch, almost every single technical aspect of it was amazing and having great well rounded characters in it. This film is an achievement in modern cinema and hopefully Barry Jenkins becomes one of the greatest filmmakers of our generation.

And he is so sweet to every human being present in that room. In every room he is in. If you guys want to see great Dutch cinema (which is rare) go watch Son of Mine (original title is Glückauf).

Barry has discussed this in other interviews. He actually doesn't story board at all. He isn't against it, but he thinks it's unnecessary and too costly and time consuming, especially when you're working with a small budget and a condensed production schedule. He creates a very specific shot list instead.

Barry is great, but that woman is plain horrible. Everything he does or has done is great, she loves everything and all his films show his skill. Then out of nowhere she starts applauding some other maker who has nothing to do with Barry or this talk. She shouldn't just sit there and kiss his ask. Challenge him. Ask him questions. Explain why something is great or what you loved about it. Now we're stuck with a talk full of conversation he's given everywhere during awards season...

2016 for cinema was absolutely horrid and Moonlight was just the best one out of the entire year. So they pulled him out. He's the best of the average. Nothing from 2016 was legendary or anything. Every great director had already made a movie in 2015, so they just took 2016 off to do whatever and that's my theory why 2016 sucked so much for movies. Moonlight was great. But compared to the films that came out in the last 3 years, it's nothing but an indie film about modern issues.

I wouldn't say 2016 was horrid for film. Look at it more positive, because a lot of greats had their movie released in 2015 it gave new and exciting talents a chance in 2016 to get the spotlight. Jenkins, Chazelle, Davis. They're not legends, but they all show an incredible love for cinema and brought us great movies. I find it more inspiring to listen to those guys than listen to Spielberg, Scott or Innaritu for the thousandth time. They're much more excited about all this hype.

I mean yeah, you're absolutely right. But right now, I'm not liking the new faces in filmmaking. It's all indie films at the moment. And I didn't like La La Land at all, but that's just my own opinion. I haven't seen Lion yet, and neither have I seen Silence. I really want to though. I'm really mad and confused why Silence wasn't nominated for anything out of all of the films this year. What I DO love about this year is specifically Barry Jenkins to where he grew up poor and became a great, successful filmmaker while we RARELY see that in cinema. We usually hear from like Paul Thomas Anderson, David Fincher, Tarantino, etc etc of how like they grew up privileged, in California, and (some) white. I'm a Hispanic who lives in a town no one really knows about (even though we do have a small film festival here) and I am right below the middle class. Nobody even wants to be in my films. I was beginning to really lose hope in me even creating ONE successful feature film, but honestly, Barry Jenkins has helped me realize that there's still hope.
