Comments

Picking ten movies of all time is a brutal task, so for this tentative list I have chosen movies that either influenced me personally or had a deep impact on me and have remained in my memory.

I would add the Histoire(s) du Cinéma series and all the work of Jean-Luc Godard as well as of Glauber Rocha, Rogério Sganzerla, Mario Peixoto, Andrea Tonacci, Eduardo Coutinho, Sueli & Isael Maxacali, Pier Paolo Pasolini, Ousmane Sembène, Jean Painlevé, Stan Brakhage, Peter Watkins, Jacques Tati, Jonas Mekas, Michael Snow, John Cassavetes, Djibril Diop Mambéty, Maya Deren, Chris Marker, R.W. Fassbinder, Jean-Marie Straub & Daniéle Huillet, Agnès Varda, Tomás Gutiérrez Alea, Jean Eustache, Tsai Ming Liang, Victor Erice, Jorge Sanjinés, Andrei Tarkovsky, Ken Jacobs, Dziga Vertov Group, Harun Farocki, Hou Hsiao-hsien, David Lynch, C.T Dreyer, Buster Keaton, Jia Zhangke, F. W. Murnau, Charles Chaplin, Pedro Costa, Alain Guiraudie, and so on…
