I'll be honest, I just wanted to listen to Denzel Washington and Mel Gibson.
-
A Denzel and Gibson collab is what we need
-
I'd love to hear Mel and Denzel discuss anything, anything at all. They'd make even the most mundane of things interesting. They're two ordinary people that have extraordinary abilities to move people with how they convey a story. True giants of film and genuinely decent people.
-
Hacksaw ridge was phenomenal. Mel might be the most underrated film director ever
-
10:21 Denzel interrupts Galloway, justice exists!
-
In the immortal words of South Park, "say what you want about Mel Gibson, but that son of a bitch knows about story structure".
-
Mel Gibson is a legend, he talks and walk the walk.
-
Mel gives off this kind of no-bs unedited sincerity... Love it.
-
Although Mira seems a bit out of place, since everyone here seems to be American directors I appreciate her being there. She has an interesting perspective on things and helps broaden the discussion and our perception outside of just the US film industry.
-
Say what you will about Mel Gibson...but his love of history and storytelling is incredible to witness.
-
I love Mel honestly. Most of us have terrible, deep rooted issues that escape our control at times. But he is just on another level of intriguing.
-
Mel is a director who can shoot an Oscar worthy movie without any professional actors. This guy literally can take any material, be that actor or script, and make it great art.
-
You can tell why Gibson and Denzel are as famous as they are. They are so captivating, so enthralling. I hang on every word from both of them. What amazing performers.
-
I love this directors' round table. Great directors, no egos, they waited their turn to tell their answer to questions, they had great anecdotes and stories. I loved it so much I watched every minute of it.
-
Denzel @57:58 is one of my favorite moments, outside of meeting him in Germany. Dude is a beautiful human being. Protect him at all costs.
-
When Denzel and Mel talk, they watch each other in such a relatable way...
-
Denzel is a beast. He’s so wisely guarded.
-
19:11 Mel's explanation here is so motivating! He unknowingly just taught how to deal with what seems overwhelmingly too stressful.
-
Oliver Stone and Mel Gibson at the same table. This is epic. Whatever these guys are selling I'm buying 🦁🤣
-
I wish Barry Jenkins would have spoken more.
