NEW YORK (AP) — There are rituals to an Alexander Payne movie. “The Holdovers” is Payne's attempt to make not just a ‘70-set film but an actual ’70s film, styled after some of the movies he grew up with. “I like talking about other people’s movies more than my own,” Payne shrugged. But there was always that distant dream of not being a filmmaker but just going to film school. Most of us trained in film school like those ’70s guys.

Care sunt cele zece filme preferate ale marelui regizorStanley Kubrick a fost un regizor, scenarist și producător de film american, recunoscut ca unul dintre cei mai inovativi și influenți regizori de film din istoria cinematografică. A regizat o serie de filme foarte apreciate, adesea controversate, filme care au fost percepute ca o reflexie a naturii sale obsesive și perfecționiste. Filmele sale sunt caracterizate de prezența elementelor de suprarealism, expresionism, dar și a unui pesimism ironic, fiind totodată și unele dintre cele mai originale. Stanley Kubrick a regizat 13 lungmetraje și trei scurtmetraje documentar de-a lungul carierei sale. Multe dintre acestea au fost nominalizate la Premiile Oscar sau Globurile de Aur, dar singurul său trofeu Oscar personal a fost câștigat pentru efectele vizuale din filmul „2001: Odiseea spațială”.
