He's so well spoken. He was one of the first men that I think introduced me to more outlandish forms of filmmaking. His version of Gatsby was so lush and beautiful. His filter work is perfect and his angles are incredibly sharp. I feel like he had an impact on my style more than Spielberg.
This channel is such a force for good in the film world. Giving not only actors and directors, but sound guys, cinematographers, composers, producers and everyone else a chance to speak for however long about whatever they think is important. Thank you thank you thank you.
Why? Thanks to him DiCaprio won the silver bear for "Romeo+Juliet" at the berlin festival which was directed by him. And if he worked again with him its because maybe he feels affection for him.
Luhrmann has gone (brilliantly) from a Shakespeare's novel to fin du siecle Paris to an Aussie labour of love to an All American story. It would be GREAT if he moves to an Asian Epic romance for his next project. What about: Puccini's MADAMA BUTERFLY ? set in modern Japan with the original opera score. I would REALLY love he made that!!!!
If NOT Madama Butterfly, what about an All SouthAmerican tragic love-story? Manuel Puig's Heartbreak Tango seems tailor made for Luhrmann's vision. IS there a way Baz Luhrmann can read this?????

I could listen to this guy talk about anything... he has a very hypnotizing voice

It's at The Plaza hotel in NY, Joe. Of course, their Plaza was a set and laid in background of the park.
Baz would approve of your framing here. He's probably my favorite person you've interviewed, great work!
You can watch all his films in 2d black and white and with the sound off and still feel everything
Anyone knows where I could get the script for this film? I just cant find it.
Baz is my favorite director!

No wonder his movies are so good!

Judging by audience reviews - as opposed to self important critics with axes to grind - DiCaprio made the right decision working with this guy.
The reviews are those people's own opinions. Try to do some research and have an opinion of your own, ok?
Where was this shot? He references the room as a location in the book/film.
Baz Luhrmann always over indulgent in his artistic creations. ewww fucking hate his movies.

I wonder what version of Gatsby audio book he was listening to on that train...lol.
love this! he is so lively!
new camera?
Um, it's called being eccentric. Plenty of celebrity types, rock stars etc, are eccentric, but it doesn't make them gay.
Yeah, very interesting guy. Can't wait to see the movie.
Great shot choice. You guys are experimenting now lol. haha...love it! Upgrading the equipment.
Great interview, David. Were you able to interview Leo that day?
***** In Australia we shorten Barry to Baz and Larry to Laz etc.
There is a very honest way of talking and expression when he speaks... :)
You don't know him personally at all (and I doubt you know Dicaprio personally either) so I don't think you can judge him.
His spectacle is too life-affirming for Gatsby. A mismatch of style + content for me. Master + Margarita is a much better fit.
That fake window background though....
I don't think its fake bro
Is this Steve Martin!?
Judging from the reviews, Dicaprio should have stayed away from this guy.
No such thing as an individual? Obviously, you've never seen or heard of Baz Lurhmann
He is very interesting guy
Why does he try to pass himself off as straight?
Is it at all normal for a man in his fifties to THIS attractive? XD
genius director
Judging from the comment,you should have stayed away from this video!
Um yeah OK um yeah derp
