Les maken...
1
I'm Winona Ryder and I am so lucky to be in the Criterion closet.
2
I basically feel like I'm at church.
3
My church.
4
This is like my scriptures.
5
The scriptures I follow.
6
Okay, let's get started.
7
Ah, Avoir les enfants.
8
So this is a great Louis Malle film.
9
I think it's somewhat autobiographical.
10
It's about a Catholic school in France, in occupied France, in World War II,
11
who are hiding a few Jewish kids.
12
And And also a great example of how you could make a film about a war without actually seeing any violence,
13
but feeling the emotional toll and the emotional violence.
14
Anyway, absolutely beautiful.
15
I am going to pick The Learning Tree because I absolutely love Gordon Parks.
16
He's one of my absolute favorite photographers of all time.
17
and he directed a few films.
18
He directed Shaft and he directed this, and I haven't seen it for a while.
19
But I really, really love him. And
20
if you're not familiar with his work do yourself a favor you will not regret looking at his absolutely stunning photographs
21
this five films John Cassavetes Jenna Rollins is I think
22
the the greatest actress who's who I've ever seen jenna had a huge impact on me doing what i'm doing
23
because my mother was a projectionist and i
24
when i was very very young i she had some connection and i got to watch cassavetes films
25
at a really young age and i i didn't really understand what was going on
26
because i was too young but i remember watching jenna
27
and just that's i just wanted to do what she was doing Another absolute favorite,
28
Ghost Dog by the brilliant Jim Jarmusch.
29
I love every single movie he's made, every frame of every movie he's made.
30
He's actually like, he's one of my favorite people.
31
Jim has this ability to get subtlety that really works in all of his films.
32
But I really do.
33
I really do love this one I feel like I mean
34
this is an obvious one down by law down by law
35
lost in America I'm an enormous Albert Brooks fan this
36
is a particularly hilarious movie about a couple who's dropping out of society and the desert inn has heart.
37
If there's an expression all the kids you if you know you know.
38
Anyway it's so great it's so great I love it.
39
I know I keep saying that these are my favorite movies but this truly is.
40
This is Meituan, directed by John Sayles.
41
I really put Meituan on the top of my list.
42
Along with this, Afterlife.
43
It is a masterpiece.
44
It's a movie about
45
what happens when you die and you're sort of in between
46
and they're trying to sort of figure out where you go
47
and they ask each person to come up with a memory that they really remember that was a beautiful memory.
48
And they recreate that memory and they show it to you and you're going to go live forever with that memory.
49
I've never told anyone this,
50
but the two most comforting sounds growing up for me was my dad's typewriter and my mom's footsteps.
51
That would be what I would pick to live forever, because that's when I felt their presence, and they're sort of my favorite people in the world.
52
So anyway, I hope I didn't give too much away.
53
But these are what a double bill this would be.
54
Okay, I'm going to leave, which is very difficult because I could literally be in here forever.
55
But I may have to come back
56
because word on the street is Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid is going to be in here.
57
so it will be worth it just to come back and talk about that.
58
Thank you.

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?

Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
