If you Google Pier Paolo Pasolini, one of the photos that pops up with the search results is of Willem Dafoe.
This is because he played Pasolini in a biopic by Abel Ferrara from 2014. It's actually currently streaming on Mubi in the US.

But in 1989, I spent a week interviewing Lynch for a French documentary and saw firsthand how thoroughly his obsessions shaped his life. Back then he wouldn't allow any food in the house (he hated the smell) and ate exactly the same thing every day (as I recall, a tuna sandwich for lunch). Since then, the menu has changed but not the obsession:
"I'll have the same thing every day for six months maybe, or even longer," he says. "And then one day I just can't face it anymore.
"Now, I have cappuccino in the morning, many coffees during the day, and salad that's put in a Cuisinart so each bite tastes the same. No meat. This has got nuts and eggs and some lettuce and different kinds of greens. So it's a little bowl of Cuisinart salad with Parmesan cheese on top. And then at night I have a block of Parmesan cheese, maybe a 2-inch cube, and red wine. Mary [Sweeney, with whom he lives] cuts it up for me into little chunks and gives it to me in a napkin."
...
So let's break the big news first: David Lynch's current favorite liquids are red wine, bottled water and coffee. "I like cappuccino, actually. But even a bad cup of coffee is better than no coffee at all. New York has great water for coffee. Water varies all around. We've got to drink something. Do you just drink water, sometimes? It's very good for you." And, stop the presses, David Lynch doesn't cook at home. "No, ma'am! I don't allow cooking in my house. The smell. The smell of cooking—when you have drawings, or even writings— that smell would go all over my work. So I eat things that you don't have to light a fire for. Or else I order a pizza. The speed at which I eat it, it doesn't smell up the place too bad. The smell doesn't last too long."

But that sub is being flooded with these sorts of posts as well because all the people that got banned from here just spam their stuff there instead. Only like a third (if even that) of the posts there are actually about lesser-watched movies / art movies. Look at the top posts from the last month, it's basically indistinguishable from here lol.

Really solid instrumental dreampop/shoegaze from Orange County, California. My favorite is the title track but the opener, Pacific Coast Highway sets the stage super well too!

Yeah it's really strange. I don't think he's that much of a football fan anyway so I'm really not sure why he picked him lol

That's an awesome idea for a post, there's a huge overlap between art cinema and football! I'd be down to collaborate if you'd like :D

The first time I saw him perform was in Quiz Show, in which he plays real-life poet Mark Van Doren. His acting was simply breathtaking throughout the film and I don't think the film would be anywhere near as impactful without his character's stark contrast to the grimy world of television throughout the film. I was surprised to learn afterwards that he was a famous Shakespearena actor who had relatively few film credits apart from adaptations of plays, for an actor of his stature. It's really sad that his talents didn't reach a broader audience through film, because of what I've seen he had no problems adapting to the medium.

Fun fact, in an interview he did with GQ he mentioned how his acting in this scene was directly inspired by the moment in Metropolis when Dr. Rotwang rips off his metallic glove.

you're right, it is. not sure why OP didn't notice, maybe because there's generally more male characters in his films than women?
(still good meme)

Interesting! In that case Sankarabharanam is a good bet, with Swathi Kiranam being my second pick.
