All About Eve impact

[27:02] Isabel Dréan shares how when she first watched All About Eve it was dubbed into French. How, in all her childhood she has never been more enthralled by a movie. At 12 years it made her want to be an actor like Bette Davis.

The Godfather 2 analysis

[32:19] Isabel Dréan shares how The Godfather 2 is a film she watched very young. How she was obsessed with the actor and proponent of ‘method acting’ Lee Strasberg and how that became her dream to study at the Lee Strasberg Institute – which she did in 1993 – stepping into the footsteps of her heroes from The Godfather Part 2.

Memento Influence

She envies the creative relationship Christopher Nolan has with his brother which makes them challenge each other and continues to make them better filmmakers as a result.
