Hi Catherine Giraud! Thanks for writing. I love Isabelle Huppert and you have three of her films in your Top Dozen. I haven't yet seen Ma mère, but am excited about it. Mulholland Drive is, in my opinion, the best film, so far this century. It is amazing. Merci pour le chocolat, La Pianiste and Bully are also some of the better films so far this century.

I have not yet seen Pasolini's Vangelo secondo Matteo, Bertrand Bonello Tiresia, Pialat's Sous le soleil de Satan, Fellini's Roma, or Eisenstein's Aleksandr Nevsky.

Night of the Hunter is a masterpiece, and I think I saw Pabst's Lulu, or Pandora's Box, a long time ago, but have only vague recollections. But, of course, I love Louise Brooks.

Thanks for writing!
