This is why Erik Matti is one of my fave filmmakers: He asserted that films “are or should be populist. But being populist should not be equated with being trashy and stupid.” In the end, he said, “A filmmaker’s role is to tell all sorts of stories … A filmmaker is a smuggler. He smuggles weird, crazy, intellectual, dark, inspiring ideas into a popular medium. If working in a genre film is the only way to reach a wider audience, I see nothing the matter with it.”
