didn't get to post this in the heat of the moment – but here's Todd Haynes speaking about the influence of Douglas Sirk and R.W. Fassbinder at his Carrosse s'Or masterclass, definitely one of the highlights of this year's edition of the Quinzaine / Cannes at large (to me at least):

beyond happy after today's screening of LA REGION CENTRALE – probably the first ever public showing of the film in Romania, and a very nostalgic chance to return to the cineclub that made me into the person I am today. thank you so much for having me, Film Menu 💗
