Miranda July:

Nothing, but heard of the films.


Gaspar Noe:

Irreversible **1/2 (didn't love it, didn't hate it...)

The Virgin Suicides **1/2

Bon Voyage ***
The Horseman on the Roof ***
Cyrano de Bergerac ***1/2


Isao Takahata

Grave of the Fireflies ***1/2


Abbas Kiarostami:

The Wind Will Carry Us ***
Lumiere and Company N/A (don't remember it well enough)
