MY DINNER WITH ANDRÉ
Louis Malle, 1981
IDEA | FILM
A conversation that somehow touches on every single facet of the human experience. A simple idea executed to profound perfection. Shawn and Gregory wrote the film by recording their own real conversations over the course of many months, before distilling them down to a piece that would eventually enter my eyes and move me to tears.
