He continued, “I think we as a group of people experiencing a pandemic in 2020-21 we’re probably also having similar feelings of loss and isolation and is communicated to a nerve we were all experiencing. It’s one of my favorite movies, and it’s probably my best work.”

He added, “And it made me wonder if he was a method actor and was in character and adding a kind of confused dimension to the Javi role, or if he genuinely thought the cabbage was amusing. This confounded me. I mean who makes a joke about cabbage, except him? It’s just not funny!”
