Take 5 with SIFF: Amanda Salazar

Describe yourself as a film genre:

Film Noir

What is your favorite movie of all time and why?:

Predator (1987); I had no choice in this film, it chose me. I will always vividly remember watching this film for the first time on the floor of my childhood home on the television (So it probably even had scenes edited out), riveted, immersed in a world I had never seen before. Since then, I always wanted to be associated with film.

Who would play you in a movie?:

Perhaps the question is better for who would I *want* to play me in a film: Kathryn Hahn or Tilda Swinton or Steve Buscemi.

What's your go to movie snack?:

(Vegan) Peanut M&Ms and popcorn.

What Film Title best describes your life?

Endless Poetry
