  Wow, so wonderful to hear from you. I saw Rosi’s documentary a few weeks ago and was moved by it. Thank you so much for sharing.

i suggest do a director retrospective of Shinya Tsukamoto, whose beautiful films included Testuo: the Iron Man, Testuo : The Body Hammer, the remake of Fires on the Plains, Tokyo Fist and my favourite: Gemini and A Snake of June.

  When I revisit it at some point, I surely will. As you can imagine my initials are similarly ET, it’s definitely one of my all-time favourites!

  Nope I’m giving it a miss this year due to health and work. But I’ll catch some of them at a later time.
