Denis Villeneuve is the great director behind Prisoners (2013), Enemy (2013), Sicario (2015), Arrival (2016), Blade Runner 2049 (2017) and few more older movies that I am not very knowledgeable about. This is a director who knows what he is doing that works with the best in the field in all departments. There aren't many in depth interviews with him and even the ones that exist don't go that deep and last very long. Luckily we got 54 minutes of this living legend.
