Charlotte Gainsbourg had one artist to recommend to the crowd at her Busan International Film Festival masterclass, and it was not a safe pick.

“I’m not good for recommendation. I have one artist that I listen to, very controversial artist, but I listen to everything he does, and it’s Kanye West,” Gainsbourg said, to laughter from the audience. “I know, it’s very easy.”

She followed up with a tamer pick. If it has to tie back to cinema, she said, film scores are what she listens to most.
