Cillian Murphy—the living legend, Oscar-winning actor, and star of one of the greatest period drama TV series of all time, Peaky Blinders—returns to the spotlight in a new episode of the underground web series Closet Picks, where artists reveal their most formative film inspirations.
In this latest episode, the mesmerizing artist lets everything spill. Murphy praises the Dardenne brothers’ compassionate approach to filmmaking, reflects on Michael Haneke’s use of long takes in Code Unknown, and gets genuinely excited to explore The Wes Anderson Archive, diving into the director’s signature symmetry and storytelling quirks.
