During the next years, i had no chance to got away from the disney's, knew the gold age of the american cartoons for kids and started to move on true films some year after, still for kids, but films anyway, yo!

I know that i'm not the only one who wished ET to stay, and this film is the starter of a friend who want to direct too (hi Irina!), it's a wonderfull sci-fi tell... with an other elliot (humhum...who copied?!)...after this film all of us had tears on eyes..."i'll always be there...be kind"...snif don't go !!! the re-edition is very limited, bathroom scene is funny...

sometimes after, my father designed me a flying bike, wich never left ground ofcourse, I was very desapointed...but it was the origin of my faith to turst in impossible things... i started to believe in dreams and saw myself in the air...

... sometimes dreams are better than reality...

The second film wich has a specific importance during my childhood was Peter and Eliot the dragon... another mix of reality and "feary", cartoon anyway... it's strange to feel a begining of logic of what i liked and still or even do in a way...humhum...I start to understand...

My mother used to rent it to a small video shop down my place, i remember the time when i had an operation, she wanted, and still be, nice with me, and  went to get it...i knew the songs by heart...and wanted to keep it...

the best part of the film, was when Eliot becomes invisible and walks on the fresh ground, leaving behind the impression of his feet, crashing the letter boxes away, destroying people's gradens...

The first time i went to a movie theater, i was around half past four, november 1988, i remember that i asked my parents : "where are we going" to cinema they said and, the next question was obviously: "what's cinema ?" (still ask myself sometimes the ? by the way)...

"It's a very big tv, where you can see films for the first time, you'll see...it's magic!" - and it was... i'll never forget it...

"Who framed Roger Rabbit" was my first meeting with cinema, and it had a big impact on me, show me that everything is possible and can happen on screen...a great moment...

My mother wanted to cover my eyes when the judge's ones felt down, i pushed it away... wanted to see...my first laugh souvenir...

that's one of my origins with film and cinema, one of the reason i want to do some..'cause every dream can be alive there...everything is possible...

Who am I ?

My name is matthieu G., twenty one years old, involved into the only international section of directing of france, close to paris...

I wish that little blog, lost in web-space, being the digital witness of this last year, support of ideas and projects, reflexions about films and cinema, of the experiences get from shootings and first steps out... on the way to become, with hope and dreams, one day...director/film-maker... illustrated by pictures, drawings, storyboards,screenshots etc...

Picture: Dogville by Lars Van Trier, a direct inflence on me, one of the most amazing film i've ever seen...
