"A brilliant Pulitzer Prize-winning book about how the modern world was formed, analyzing how societies developed differently on different continents. I like how this is written from a biologist’s point of view rather than purely based on history or anthropology."

"The most recent Criterion release on my list is Kieślowski’s masterwork. Ten short films (two of which were expanded into full features) each based on one of the Ten Commandments. One of the greatest achievements I’ve ever seen in modern film."

Yorgos Lanthimos recommended The Shepherds of Calamity (Thanos and Despina) (1967) in Movies (curated)

"Definitely one of the greatest Greek films ever made. I could have never imagined something so modern, absurd, anarchistic set in a bucolic environment and made in Greece during the '60s. I'm always taken by surprise when I re-watch it."
