“Turns out that Soderbergh is a voracious reader, devouring tomes by Jonathan Franzen, Barbara Kingsolver, and David Foster Wallace in what appears to be mere days. And while his grueling work schedule might be part of the reason he soon plans to retire, he carved out time to work on his other creative love, painting.
“Of course, he also logged many hours in front of film, working on his upcoming Haywire and The Man from U.N.C.L.E., as well as watching old favorites including The Godfather (1 and 2 only), Last Tango in Paris, and Raiders of the Lost Ark (three times in one week!).
“Also included was ‘an almost comically basic syllabus’ for those interested in breaking into the film industry. For a tutorial in black and white cinema, he suggests The Long Voyage Home, Mademoiselle, and Lenny. For editing, he turns to Jaws, Election, and The Graduate.
See the complete list.”
