Chai Vasarhelyi on American Movie (1999)
Chris Smith's documentary "has a very special place" in Chai's heart. She describes subject Mark Borchardt as "the quintessential filmmaker, the person driven by such mania and crazy, crazy conviction."
Episode 3 • Oct 31, 2023
Chai Vasarhelyi on Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon (2000)
Chai immediately put Ang Lee's masterpiece on her list. Featuring one of the most epic fights, "it is just one of those amazing things where you see two women at the height of their powers going at it, and no man could ever one-up them."
Episode 4 • Oct 31, 2023
Chai Vasarhelyi on Gigi (1958)
Chai's go-to film when she is depressed is Vincente Minnelli's GIGI: "Every single frame of that film is a Toulouse-Lautrec painting."

Episode 6 • Oct 31, 2023
Chai Vasarhelyi on Le joli mai (1963)
"You get the sense of the end of a colonial power that's very deep and very strong," she says. "LE JOLI MAI is a really interesting examination of how you come to terms with a violent past."

Chai Vasarhelyi on Lost in La Mancha (2002)

Chai Vasarhelyi on Sherman's March (1985)
Ross McElwee's SHERMAN'S MARCH had a profound impact on Chai, who recommends the film as a must-see. "It was just one of those movies that when you see it, you can't really believe it's happening, and then you love every single frame."
Episode 9 • Oct 31, 2023
Chai Vasarhelyi on Stevie (2002)
One of Chai's mentors, the prolific documentary director Steve James, made this film, which she calls "one of the most human, compassionate, honest documentaries I've ever seen."
Episode 10 • Oct 31, 2023
Chai Vasarhelyi on The Act of Killing (2012)

Episode 12 • Oct 31, 2023
Chai Vasarhelyi on The Host (2006)
"I would highly recommend it as a date movie," Chai says of Bong Joon Ho's early film. Not only will it boost your credentials as a film connoisseur, she promises, but "its scary scenes will get your date to hold you tight."
