- The acclaimed writer-director-producer of ABOUT DRY GRASSES talks about how seeing Ingmar Bergman’s THE SILENCE Silence at a young age altered his perception of cinema, praises the timelessness of STRANGER THAN PARADISE, and shares how Abbas Kiarostami gave him the courage to make his own films.

The Lynchian hellscape audio is back!
Ceylan should've called home, someone from Criterion would've answered the phone 😉
It sometimes the best thing about the channel
The dvds are not what they seem 😊
Sounds like they got a new HVAC or something lol
Eraserhead all the way
I love how he casually pockets that enormous Bergman box set
Straight in there...no hesitation. Total pro.
0:04 Bergman collection
0:16 The Silence (1963)
1:06 Éric Rohmer's Six Moral Tales collection
1:35 Stranger Than Paradise (Jarmusch, 1984)
1:57 Andrei Rublev (Tarkosvky, 1966)
2:25 Satyajit Ray's Apu Trilogy
2:49 Knife in the Water (Polanski, 1962)
3:16 Abbas Kiarostami's Koker trilogy
Love to see Ceylan in the closet, been a long time fan of his. His recent film About Dry Grasses had the best dialogue of 2023 for me. Suprising to hear that he got into Kiarostami when he got older, I would have expected Kiarostami to be the pivatol filmmaker to influence him most.
thanks such a nice comment
Really appreciate the listing of film names and putting the timestamps
Great filmmaker, and movies he picked exactly represent his own movies. He is modern day Bergman, Tarkovski, Bresson
And Kiarostami?
"As if nothing happens but everything happens - that's the kind of movie I like most"
The older I get, the more I agree with this.
Example: Drive my car
o şeyden geliyor ya hiçbir şey olmadıyla bile kesinlikle bir şey oldu sdjkzfjkadfb
Everything is something happens
Not a surprise that he chose that collection, the influences are very obvious in his movies. Knew him with Winter Sleep, when he won the Palme d'Or of 2014, that was a surprise! One thing about him, he never disappoints, great filmmaker.
David Lynch must’ve directed this Criterion Closet vid due to the unsettling background drone
Ceylan should've called home, someone from Criterion would've answered the phone 😉
The man, the master himself! Been waiting years for this, now please a Bilge Ceylan Box Set
I have a box set here in the UK up to and including Wild Pear Tree on Blu-ray.Its region B locked.😮
The best "Closet Picks" episode yet! Incredible selections from an unbelievable director
This guy really should be known more, one of my favourite contemporary directors
Goes straight for the Ingmar Bergman Collection - my man!
Holy shit Criterion got a GOAT tier director in the closet this time 😍
I love the fact that you can hear the sound of a generator in the background. It seems so Nuri.
It's to generate interest from the viewers.
Shoutout to Nuri for being one of the greatest living directors and for mostly getting boxsets; buying in bulk is the best strategy for the closet. A second shout out for making this video sound like it was produced underwater. Keep em coming!
I saw Distant, Once Upon a Time In Anatolia, Winter Sleep and The Wild Pear Tree. I'm undecided whether my favorite is Once Upon A Time In Anatolia or Winter Sleep, but they're both great. I prefer them over the other two.
Winter Sleep for me.
Replace Distant with Three Monkeys and we are in complete concurrence.
you should watch on dry grasses
@@lithium1619 I did and still Winter Sleep is the best. (Atleast for me)
For me, as a young Turk, it's The Wild Pear Tree. It's especially popular with young people here because it's so, so, so relatable. It has an autographic side to it which leads to an amazing conclusion: Nuri was in his 20s in 1980s and that means 40 years later, nothing ever changed in societal structure of Turkey.
Nuri Bilge Ceylan is a master himself, his art is simply astounding.
Finally a Nuri Bilge Ceylan enters to the collection?? Please do a BOX SET with all his films!!!
the audio in these videos bring up so many questions for the viewer. Is this closet to be found in a submarine? An underground station? On an airplane at 35,000 feet? Is the microphone covered in foam? I guess we shall never know, but continue to long for the invention of radio mics and de-noising filters. :)
It's a David Lynch film!

His latest, About Dry Grasses, is incredible! One of our great modern filmmakers.
Of course he was going to pick Tarkovsky.) Massive influence.
That scene under the tree in the Wild Pear Tree instantly came to mind when he picked Andrey Rublev.
Great person and great director. I saw many films he recommend, Specially Bergmann, Tarkowski, Kiarostami. Rohmer. Directors like this will never come into the world again.
One of the greatest contemporary directors
Very easy to predict his selections, there influence is embodied in his cinema… watching this episode is like a deja vu
Great director. No wonder he choses Abbas Kiarostami. Fun fact, in Uzak there is a scene were Stalker is shown on tv.
and then the character switches from watching stalker to watching porn if i remember correctly hahaha
Right! He puts Stalker on to bore his relative to get rid of him so he can go back to watching porn but it doesn’t work!
I wouldn't have pegged him as a Jarmusch fan, but wow, his admiration for Stranger Than Paradise just makes so much sense now that I think about it. Same with Knife in the Water (the only Polanski I fuck with). "And sometimes luxury can even be a burden."
He also makes a good point about how AT made such a leap from Ivan's Childhood to Rublev. It's really bewildering.
Read Polanski's autobiography for the real dope.
Yeah I never would've got the Jarmusch thing either! I find Ceylan's movies so damn serious - like his other selections here - while Jarmusch is often pretty light or playing about with what just looks and feels cool, IME. Not a criticism, I just wouldn't have joined the dots before he said it.
Happy to see someone who enjoys movie box sets.
To quote from another comment; one of the best closet picks and these directors are getting rarer and rarer.
Wow... he picked "Apu Trilogy". ... Didn't expect this.. I've watched all of his work.."the wild pear tree" will ne my fav.ever...
Love from India..❤❤
It's amazing how his picks are so detached from his own works both thematically and technically. That alone should be enough proof that he has his own very unique, very distinctive style of cinema. So happy to see him on Criterion!
Un des plus grands realisateurs au monde❗❗❤
Some great choices from one of my favourite directors.😊
Some of his comments really resonated with me. Great selections. I also love that his first pick was the Bergman set.
He went for the same box sets I would've. One of my favorite filmmakers choosing some of my favorite films
Uzak was such a wake up call for me about cinema as an art form when I was in my late teens. It was the first time I deeply identified myself with a protagonist, and later realized as I learned more about NBC that it was also a psychological autobiography of sorts. However, the Wild Pear tree was such a let down. It was rushed and still rough on the edges. The dialogue felt like a first draft.
I would love to see Uzak and The Wild Pear Tree in the Collection!
The greatest living Director.
Couldn't agree more
You know, Tarrence Malick is alive...
@@ToxicTurtleIsMad I love Malick but Ceylan has him beat.
@@mercurymachines4311Art is not sport
@@TucoRope2Tight then why do they give out Awards? Tarkovsky certainly treated it like a sport.
Wow. My favorite director
Never clicked so fast on a video 😍 Love him! Muhteşem filmleriniz için teşekkür ederim 🙏🏻
I like him because if I ever would get the chance to be in the criterion closet I'd do just as him and grab as much boxsets as possible. 😅
Amazing selection and seemed to pick so many of my favourites. Plus digging the background noise. Sounds like a Kevin Drumm record. Strangers in Paradise is the best!
I never saw any of his films.. But tomorrow I'll be seeing "About dry grasses".. Today I saw the trailer and it looks tempting. 🌟
One of the most influential contemporary filmmakers, chapeau
Didnt expect to see him here, nice!
Incredible selection!
NURİ BİLGE CEYLAN ülkemizin gururu
nuri bilge is a mastermind of our age, no doubt :)
The greatest Turkish director, by far. Hopefully we can see at least one more film from him.
@@hmicky-mickey ??
@@moimoimoiiiiiii32221 He's one of the greatest film directors in the world.
I could see how films such as these would greatly influence his writing, cinematography, philosophically even.
The Criterion Collection should focus more on Turkish films and directors. Unfortunately, the world does not know Turkish directors. What a shame! I will recommend 3 great master directors and their films:
Yavuz Turgul, Atıf Yılmaz and Ertem Eğilmez.
The last two are dead, but Yavuz Turgul is still alive and still making good movies with Şener Şen, Turkey's most popular and important actor.
There is a great director and actor collaboration. This is a loyal collaboration that will be rare in the history of world cinema. Maybe there is even no other example.
Among all the auteur directors in the world, Yavuz Turgul may be the auteur director who remains most loyal to his own "treadmarks" in each of his films. And he writes the scripts of each of his films by himself. He shoots a film every 7-8 years.
The movie "Eşkiya", which he shot in 1996, is considered the "Best Movie in the History of Turkish Cinema" according to many Turkish film critics and academics and the majority of Turkish moviegoers.
Like almost most of Turgul's films, this is a "magical realism" film...
The Criterion Collection should definitely check out this movie and other Yavuz Turgul movies:
- "Eşkıya" (1996)
- "Muhsin Bey" (1986)
- "Aşk Filmlerinin Unutulmaz Yönetmeni" (1990)
- "Gölge Oyunu" (1992)
- "Gönül Yarası" (2004)
- "Av Mevsimi" (2010)
- "Züğürt Ağa" (1985)
...
Atıf Yılmaz's great films:
- "Ahh Güzel İstanbul" (1966)
- "Kibar Feyzo" (1968)
- "Ne Olacak Şimdi?"
- "Selvi Boylum Al Yazmalım" (1977)
- "Köroğlu Destanı" (1968)
- "Keşanlı Ali Destanı" (1964)
- "Erkek Ali" (1964)
- "Ahh Belinda" (1986)
...
Ertem Eğilmez's great films:
- "Canım Kardeşim" (1973)
- "Family Quardiology" (1975-1977)
- "Hababam Sınıfı Series" (1975-1981)
- "Banker Bilo" (1980)
- "Namuslu" (1984)
- "Arabesk" (1988)
First time seeing someone with casual wear Nike Tech
Wow, he's literally me!
Probably, the best director working today!
Also, of course the man picks Andrei Rublev! The greatest film.
This man’s taste are impeccable
Refreshing take on offerings by criterion from many of the other noted films that always are mentioned.
I feel like his movies either really hit you or you don't connect with them at all and cant wait til its over (which is understandable when most of them are about 3 hours long). I watched Winter Sleep and I instantly put it into my top dozen films of all time. It just really connected with me for some reason. Then I watched A Wild Pear Tree the next day and understood why people might not like his films. I was tired and halfway through the movie, I was just itching for something to happen but then i realized not much is supposed to happen. I'm eager to check out his other films but i know i have to be in the right mindset now
If you are not turkish it is understandable that wild pear tree didnt resonate with you. Characters in that movie are some TYPES turkish people know very well. Didnt yoj like the ending tho
Who are these people "not connecting with his films at all...?" Friends of yours? Or are you reading internet babble? We are in an age where Christopher Nolan and old, rehashed tropes about white messiah's (via Dune) and films about the "Joker" are being hailed as masterpieces. We are in a socialmedia, streaming, age where GenZ and others aren't making stories they're making "content!" Some of the worse movies in the last twenty five years are being made right now for you. So, who are these people that you're listening to about not connecting with Ceylan? His films are long (which is actually fashionable right now) and aren't about super powers or inject trendy, lgbqurst content, so maybe the crowd you're listening to just have pedestrian, contemporary, crappy as heck, taste?!
0:01 Ingmar Bergman - 0:42 - 01:05 Six Moral Days / Eric Rohmer - 01:28 Stranger Than Paradise - 01:52 Andrei Rublev - 02:21 The Apu Trilogy - 02:46 Knife in the Water - 03:13 Abbas Kiarostami - 04:20 Bye😁
great to see you invited the goat himself
One of the best ones working today
we need a "Knife in the Water" bluray plz
Pls bring Hou Hsiao-Hsien, Takashi Miike, or Na Hong-Jin. Maybe Beat Takeshi, Lee Chang Dong, Apichatpong Weerasethakul, or Jonathan Glazer? :)
At last Eric Rohmer. I like this choice, as the choices are made directly and seriously.
To the CZcams guru at Criterion Collection: Please take the time and trouble (surely also in your own interest) to list, and if possible link, the chosen films. I find it extraordinarily frustrating to find that I often cannot identify the film in question. But thank you for producing this wonderful and unique resource.

They put a list at the end of the video every time as of recent.
it is at the end of the video, duh.
my man , the best director ever
@criterioncollection Could we, as the audience/viewers, try to guess the cause of the audio issue in the background of the video? Here are some possible reasons: 1) Someone might be running a washing machine, 2) the air conditioning might be running and the microphone could be picking it up, 3) there could be something wrong with the audio settings, 4) you might be enjoying us talking about it and so you are carrying on, or 5) David Lynch might be involved in this. Answer, please! 🙏📽🎞💡
Are we getting some Ceylan criterions???
Probably
Janus contemp. About Dry Grasses only
Three seconds in and this dude grabs Bergman set.... I dunno who he is but i like him. ICE IN HIS VEINS!!!!!; "IDGAF bruh. Judge me!"
So good to see him here!
Imagine if the only movies that were available were the criterion collection for ten years.
would be truly amazing.
One of the best living directors
To say that Ivan's Childhood doesn't have style is a bit of a hot take. But because it's Ceylan talking, I can accept it.
True, but in comparison to Rublev it makes sense. Ivan's Childhood is a beautiful film but Andrei Rublev feels like a whole new world
I understood him to mean not that it doesn't have any style, just that the grammar of the framing and editing is close to the European mainstream of, say, Bergman, Dreyer, Wajda or early Antonioni. By his second film, Tarkovsky had forged his own vision.
Yeah I can understand where he is getting at - Andrei Rublev is also probably my favorite of his, and the scope is so incredible and ambitious. But I still think there are plenty of characteristics of his style both in the camera work and general direction already in Ivan's Childhood.
True, and it's one of the greatest first films ever made@@rasmusjohansen6190
Ivan's Childhood is pretty poor by Tarkovski standards.
Hey Criterion "sound person". Buy a LAVALIER MICROPHONE (they are cheap), wired or wireless, and clip it to the speaker's clothes. Plug the receiver, or the other end of the wire into your camera or sound recorder. Any guest you have in that closet would probably be happy to show you how this works. This will reduce the background noise, and more people will enjoy your uploads.
Literally any mic would be better than this one.
Someone should make a cover for Daft Punk's Giorgio as Nuri from this audio. Anyone? Please?!
Ceylan only goes for the gold in the closet, love it.
silence is amazing
TURKIYE 💚🤍❤ IRAN 💚🤍❤BROTHERS 💚🤍❤ FOREVER 💚🤍❤ THANK YOU NURI 💚🤍❤
This guy is a master. ❤
Oh wait this is a new one! I'm so used to watching episodes from 9 years ago
Was waiting for this long ago 😍😍😍
The way he just acts himself reminds me of watching one of his films
Who else should he act like?
"You can put all your problems, all your sicknesses, everything in a movie." Quite! Bergman, Hitchcock, Fellini, Lynch... a pretty long list!😄. Thanks.
Hitchcock doesnt belong.
@@ToxicTurtleIsMad🧐 If you make movies you belong.
As bayrakları as 🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷
Don't recall anyone else picking Knife ITW.
Not seeing a link to "shop picks" in the description fyi. Thanks!
hes street smart, he picks boxsets, which is exactly what I would do
Who else of today's living and working directors are on the level of Ceylan?
Haneke, Zvyagintsev...Hu Bo was definitely there. Who else?
him and I can be good friends, terrific choice of taste in movies
Çabuk Zeki Demirkubuz gelmeden...
He really wanted Dude, Where's My Car?
Someone messed up shutter angle on Criterion channel.
My man...😎 GOAT from Türkiye !!!
The muhtar of the Cannes
criterion should think of adding some of his films to collection
Oh My God!!!
Whats with the lynch sound design
😂😂😂😂
I LOVE movie like nothing happens and nothing happens..
Someone bring Abbas Kiarostami back from the dead to talk about cinema.
Yoooooooooo NBC's so legit
Is someone making a cup of tea next door? I hear a bubbling kettle.
Wow, this guy has it in for the box sets.😂
This man has exquisite taste.
