To be honest im not gonna lie, ive only actually seen 'irreversible' and that was abotu 3 days ago, but it is probaly the most 'powerful & visceral' film iver ever seen. (yeah i nicked that descriptino from vice magazine, sorry).

Reason why ive chosen to research or learn about him is the techniques he uses and i agree with everything he says like he doesnt actually like concentrating on the 'story' of the film, but more the exprience it takes the veiwer on & he also hates using fake lighting as he feels it takes away from the feel, i respect that tooooo much.

Anyways in irreversible he agrees it didnt take him long to film, also whats amazing is most of the film is simply improvised and shot then cut up accordingly.

In irreversible he creates a film which really messes with your head and takes you somewhere...he uses stupily smart ideas such as playing all the music and sounds at low frequency which creates some surreal effect, one thing i liek in irreversible is the way the film goes in reverse order.

 He also uses some mental shots, spinning around creating a distorted feel, he uses it very well as the character it follows is drugged up and drunk, and it almsot makes you feel like it and draws you into the film more.

Heres the trailer which sort of gives you an idea.

Without me ruining too much you definetly should watch it if you want ot go down film making, its changed my veiws on alot.

Heres too interveiws also, one about the film itself

&  the second is definetly worht watching to get into the mind of him and made me think alot.

I love the soundtracks he uses away, just gonna go watch some of his short films and maybe post back

saaaaafe.
