Kapanlagi.com - For over two weeks, the government has been urging people to undergo self-quarantine at home. This is to stop the spread of the coronavirus or covid-19 which is becoming uncontrollable.

In line with this advice, director Joko Anwar has put a halt to the preparations for his new film. He admitted that he is relaxed in undergoing self-quarantine as he is someone who enjoys being at home.

"I am a homebody, so I am happy because if I don't have to work, I want to be at home. Now there are also many things that can be done, like watching films," said Joko during a live session on CGV Cinemas' Instagram account.

1. Watching Movies Makes Me Happy

Talking about watching movies during self-quarantine, Joko Anwar rewatches old titles. Of course, he doesn't watch just any movie, as he chooses ones that are related to happy memories from the past.

"I really enjoy rewatching movies that make my heart happy. Watching movies from the 90s when I was a teenager, movies that make me happy, especially those that remind me of the people I love," explained this man from Medan.

2. Movies Rewatched

Joko Anwar then mentioned three movies that he rewatched. Along with the memories that influenced why he chose those titles.

"There's CLUELESS released in 1992. I remember it because I watched it with my friends. Then, yesterday, THE CRAFT from 1995. I was really happy because I watched it with my friends too," recalled the director who is also a screenplay writer.

"One more is the first SISTER ACT movie. After watching that movie, my soul felt like it was flying, like I was happy. It's an uplifting film, it warms the heart," he added.
