Please, release me from this hell of indecision. Or don’t. I’m not sure.

Hello,

I’m director Alfonso Cuarón and after 27 years of filmmaking, I still haven’t reached a consensus on what kind’ve filmmaker I am. Some directors focus solely on gritty crime films or frat boy comedies with the occasional attempt at a different genre. I, on the other hand, make a slew of random projects with no natural progression from one to the next.

That’s why I’m enlisting your help to find out what my next project should be. Otherwise, I’ll have no idea and end up making a cryptic fragrance commercial starring Marion Cotillard and Mickey Rourke.

To catch you up with what I’ve made, I’ll give you a quick summary of my career. I’ve made an Oscar-winning historical biography of a maid in 1970’s Mexico, a critically panned sci-fi movie that revolutionized visual effects, a critically acclaimed sci-fi movie where Michael Caine asks someone to pull his finger and then immediately gets shot in the face, a re-imagined Charles Dickens bildungsroman, a coming of age road trip porn, and the third Harry Potter film.
