"It’s the first grown-up film I ever saw that didn’t have guns or spaceships in it. I was ten and watched it in a caravan park in Exmouth. —GB"

"After I saw this film and began quoting it every chance I got, my adolescent virginity was sealed. In addition, it’s one of the best films ever made about religion."

"We first got into them when we saw them at Iceland Airwaves. I think when you see a band live before you've heard them recorded it really improves your connection."

"I saw this film with my mother when I was very young. It’s the only movie aside from It’s a Wonderful Life during which I’ve cried because I was happy."

"Sky told me once that when she was in high school, she skipped school and saw Vampire Weekend play. That touched me in my heart, you know? World keeps spinning."

"I just saw this for the first time a few months ago, and I’m obsessed with it. It’s one of the weirdest, most beautiful, most hilarious movies of all time."

"The Matrix was just such an incredible cinematic experience. I saw it when I was 13, in the cinema. I didn’t know anything about it — I hadn’t seen the trailer. It just blew my mind. I didn’t know anything about it when I first saw it. And I was lucky enough to be able to work with the Wachowskis later, years later, on Speed Racer, which I had a great time on."

"The next one I would say would be Amarcord by Fellini. In fact everything by Fellini, but Amarcord, particularly, I just happened to see it — I think most of the films I’m going to mention I probably saw in my early 20s, either in Queensland or when I first went to Europe, and they were the films that just stuck with me and I felt when I saw them they kind of blew me away."
