JEDDAH, SAUDI ARABIA - DECEMBER 4: (INTERVIEW) Director Pan Nalin speaks on audiences needing another "Cinema Paradiso" and how this year many directors are making films on the movies - like "Bardo" "Empire of Light" and "Babylon." He thinks it's because of the arrival of streaming platforms and cinema becoming side-lined or perhaps Covid-19 caused other directors to think about what makes them love the big screen. He himself also befriended a projectionist as a child, just like in "Cinema Paradiso", during the "Last Film Show" press junket at the Red Sea International Film Festival on December 4, 2022 in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.
