Well Said: Rain Johnson on 8 1/2

"Even though I was enamoured with film at college, I took literature classes and was reading a lot of great novels. Film and great literature seemed to feed two very different appetites for me – until I saw 8½. It was the first movie that bridged the two and opened up the idea that a film can have the complexity of a great novel. … I don’t think I’ve ever seen a movie like it, it seems to capture what memory – or the reverie of reliving a memory – feels like. The experience is almost tangible." - Rian Johnson on 8 1/2
