I tweeted a link to Kyle Buchanan’s Vulture article on “100 Women Director’s Hollywood Should Be Hiring” but thought I’d share what was actually said:

“Claire Denis
A year ago, I might have left Denis off this list: Though her films, likeTrouble Every Day, Beau Travail, and White Material, mark this French director as a titan of world cinema, I didn’t think she had any interest in going mainstream. And then, over the past year, Denis set Zadie Smith to write a sci-fi film and Robert Pattinson to star in it. If this is what it looks like when Denis is ready to play ball, I can’t wait to see what kind of curve she puts on her pitch.”

Denis is a “titan of world cinema” and she wants to work with Rob.  Says it all really.
