Excellent. So rare to see a homage to Roy. In the hope that you will continue to produce work of this quality I have supported you on Patron.

Being a film scholar, I must say that this is probably one of the best works of film studies I have seen in ages. Lost in scholarly limbo, most modern scholarship only aids the writer to sustain their work. But this study has far more practical potential and therefore isn't merely a means to an end.

I hope the humour in Roy's movies gets through even to non-Swedish speakers. I recon his films to be very centered on experiences of growing up in Sweden, i.e. how people talked, how people behaved etc, but presented in an extreme way.

Amazing to see Roy Andersson's work getting the recognition it deserves, his work is truly astonishingly beautiful and honest whilst at the same time being uniquely stylized, but let's not forget there are not two, but three great Andersons working in film right now. He may not be as visually distinctive, but P.T. also understands how to manipulate the film medium to very powerful effect. If I had to name my three favorite working directors I would need only one surname to cover the bunch. Long live the Andersons.

Paul Thomas Anderson > Roy Andersson > Wes Anderson

They are way to different filmmakers. They have nothing to do with each other. Nothing in common except for the similarities of their names

Excellent analysis! One of the best film essays I have seen in video form on KZread. Roy Andersson's line producer told me about this (I work for Roy on his upcoming film "About Endlessness"). I decided to take a look at the video once I got home, and wow, you managed to go in full detail here. I think everyone working on Roy's film including the director himself appreciated this video.

Nice touch to have "the left side" only appear in my left earcup, and "the right side" in my right. Never heard of Roy Anderson before, but I love the aesthetic of what you're showing us here! Also, I'm Norwegian, so I can understand his movies without closed captions :D

This is going to sound really weird, but I've been feeling really down recently. Lost all energy for everything. Particularly, I haven't felt engaged with my passion, film. This video brought that joy back a little. Thank you :)

That was great! And it also stroke me that Roy Andersson's style reminds me the style of Jacques Tati (especially his 1967 Playtime classic) What do you think about that?

What a lovely introduction to Andersson's work. Thank you!

Some excellent 15 minutes. Tender presentation of the Roy.

what an excellent video! so fascinatingly structured and analysed, and the presentation of the content is superbly edited. it's a relatively long video, but i was engrossed throughout. thank you!!

Great job guys! 2 of my favourite filmmakers and was a lovely and insightful homage to both.

Love you man! I swear, I was just thinking yesterday that somebody should make this video and I can't believe it just popped out today on my homepage!!! these two directors have so much in common ;)

Roy Andersson is one of my favorite filmmakers. En kärlekshistoria, Sånger från andra våningen, Du levande and his short movies Härlig är jorden and Någonting har hänt are all amazing. En kärlekshistoria does have a totally different style though. Compared to the other ones.

A quite wonderful piece. Thank you for sharing your views, so fascinating

Boy, that was inspiring. Thank you so much for the great analysis; definitely worth a few re-watches. I'm also gonna check out Roy Andersson, his style seems truly captivating.

Amazing video!! Two of my all time favorites.

A magnificent video of two magnificent directors. Thank you!
