What's /lgbt/'s favorite movie?
>>43033449unironically the silence of the lambs
>>43033467They honestly should make an ed gein biopic and get into further into it even tho that would be disastrous for the transgender community
>>43033449Never seen the actual movie but the soundtrack is A+++, I used to put it on repeat to fall asleep at night
>>43033449>His name is Ace>He doesn't get laid

Hellboy II
>>43033449analife
This desu >.<
It may be the childhood nostalgia speaking but I think "In the mood for love" is basically a perfect movie. Favorite trans film: Funeral parade of roses Favorite gay film: The children's hour (1961)Favorite recent gay film I've seen: Close (2022)
>>43033449i love mysterious skin smjgl is so hot in this movie hes like 90% of what drives my aap t. roon
Dobu (1954)
Ayo peep this nigga
>>43034796Bugonia is awesome! Unironically best autistic representation in cinema
>>43034811I agree.My favourite part was the relationship between the cop and protagonist bc there's a bit that really, truly hints that the protag "forgives" the cop, in that he TRULY believes that all evil begins and ends on the aliens.When the cop comes in to apologize the protag gives him a conspiracy theory book about (((them))) and says it helped him a lot. I read it as, he's actually fully.convinced, and perhaps correct, that people are inherently good, and only the manipulation of a nefarious higher power can lead them astray from that natural state.His cousin was a really tragic character too....That bit before they chemically castrate one another where he goes "I just always hoped...maybe i'd get a girl, and a family..".Ooh also the dissection of corporatespeak and how hard it is to tall about "conspiracies" even when they're objectively real. Skillful gaslighting vs a man who knows for sure he isn't nuts.
>>43033449this film made me so sad
>>43034796saw this in the cinema maybe three other people there, was nice, not an amazing film though just pretty good
>>43034730>"In the mood for love"an ex of mine loved this film and I feel wronged by her (in retrospect I was immature but whatever)anyway I will always seethe when I hear that title
>>43034854That's an interesting reading, I actually didn't really think that much into stavros' part when I first viewed it but that makes a lot of sense. One of my favorite parts of the movie was when they showed him working at the package center and how he was a genuinely nice coworker lol. I thought that was perfect because that's exactly how those guys are in real life but it plays into exactly what you're saying, that his worldview is actually one where he sees the good in other people and himself displacing the worlds evils into this grand conspiracy. He's motivated by an intelligence and underlying belief in his own kindness which is only possible by understanding the world as malicious and evil. Its exactly the type of worldview obviously you see on here, where most of the 4chan incels are kinda honest, genuinely maligned intelligent, autistic boys who are of course insane and schizoid but correct in their perspective because that's the only way to rationalize all that they have seen and experienced. Their attitude feels more true than anyone else because they can feel the world as it truly is, uncompromised because they were left behind. I don't think I've seen a movie, this well made at least, that centers on that really important discussion to be had about the marginalized in society, in how the internet has now unlocked the capability for the extremely disabled and isolated to push culture and politics - something everyone else is only lagging behind what we can see on here. And yeah the castration part and the chappel roan in the car and stavros showing up, just perfect, its astonishing how accurate they got this world with the just right critical perspective to take.
maybe a little on the nose but yeah. bummer ending though
>>43035414Aw I should rewatch that.
This must be a favorite for a few people here
>>43034899Aw sorrys :( , I hope one day maybe you can have happier associations with it.
>>43034730<3 In The Mood For Love. Have you seen Happy Together? It’s a romance movie Wong Kar Wai did about a gay couple from Hong Kong living in Argentina.
>>43035197TASTE!!
>>43035553FUCKOFFCUNTIt's hard enough keeping trannies from committing suicide normally. They don't need that.
>>43035626Perfect blue isn't a sui movie what
>>43035609:D it’s so good, glad other people know about it
>>43035626its literally my favorite movie by my favorite director what are you talking aboutt.ranny
>>43035641ROCK AND ROLL!!!!!
>>43035481easily top 5
>>43033449favourite film: pierrot le foufavourite /lgbt/ film: funeral parade of roses
>>43035548Yesss I just watched it recently, its quite good too. We'll always remember you Leslie Cheung <3
>>43035151I just watched it after seeing this post. Very beautiful, very informative. I never hated on old trans/queer culture really, just never felt like it represented me and was a little uncomfortable like many other people here due to the pressures of society for you to the fit the expectation associated with this film. But I really felt so connected to the characters. I think if I was in their shoes I would be the exact same way I am just from a different town in a different town but its the same struggle.
>>43037347different town different time. If only I knew anyone else like me growing up, lest I wouldn't have been mysterious skin
Clerks
>>43037360I just watched that one and I really did not like it. It felt very of its time and insincere, despite growing up on youtube videos based on that exact style.
>>43033449no i dont watch movies or even read books or play video games i only watch TV the only thing I watch is TV like MTV or something ? idk whatever's on i lost the remote awhile ago
>>43033449nausicaa and the valley of the wind
>>43033449500 days of summer
>>43033449My big fat greek wedding, monkey trouble or mean girls
>>43033449my favourite movie is love & mercy the brian wilson biopic, I also love the texas chain saw massacre, promising young woman, annie (1982) and marty supreme
>>43033467very good movie! Iove its atmosphere and I like that its one of the only hollywood movies dealing with serial killers that actually delves into psychology. most of the time they make them mission oriented like in sesevenen. silence of the lambs and copycat are the two hollywood serial killer movies that are actually psychological
>>43035414rly good choice, Rip Rob Reiner.>>43035938Have you seen top secret? Its genuinely funnier than airplane
>>43033449IDK why but I fucking love this movie. Its my favorite movie by far. its sad because young people (im a zoomer) don't even know what Dirty Harry is except for the gorillas song. It also has the best soundtrack ever. Magnum force is pretty good too, it had more action, but it's not as artful.
>>43033449very difficult to pick 1 favorite movie but this feels like a good answer. Altman's run from like 1970-77 was just insane and this is the crown jewel of it
>>43038617Definitely one of his best. Also Quintin tarantino movies.
>>43038661QT has a spotty filmography. I don't get a sense of enjoyment from his movies anymore. Picrel is my 2nd fav movie. I think most Lynch stuff is fart sniffing overindulgent crap tho>>43038102This anon is right about top secret
Event Horizon
>>43038102Top Secret is great. Definitely a high point for that genre of screwball slapstick. Plus young Val Kilmer is super cute.>>43038005<3 Nausicaa. Have you read the manga? Miyazaki wrote and illustrated the whole thing himself. I love his movies in general, but it’s neat to see a project where he was working solo.>>43036353RIP Leslie <3>>43035887It made a big impression on me as a kid
1. pink flamingos2. truman show3. the skin i live in (the movie that cracked my egg lol)4. jackass 3d5. bamboozled6. being john malkovich7. do the right thing8. stop making sense9. willy wonka and the chocolate factory10. carrie

>>43033449wristcutters
>>43033449Favourite lgbt film: Priscilla, Queen Of The DesertFavourite film: either Mauvais Sang by Leos Carax, or the director's cut of The Act Of Killing & The Look Of Silence by Joshua Oppenheimer
>>43033449I fapped to that one scene
My most favorite movie of all the time I've watched it like 6 times I think and I'd watch it a million times lol
>>43038987Oh hai fitgirl
>>43038695> QT has a spotty filmography.Like dirty harry, its mostly due to great dialogue. Dirty Harry, Django Unchained, Pulp Fiction, The Hateful Eight, and Blazing Saddles, the Shinning, are my top favorite movies due to writing/dialogue.
>>43039230I think hateful 8 is qts worst movie. Even Jackie brown is like 2x better (I actually like Jackie brown a lot more than most ppl tho).
>>43038987My mom used to tell me I was infatuated with that movie as a very small child, young enough I don't think I remembered even watching it. Something about that made me feel autistic.
>>43039275Its a specific element in each of those movies dialogue that makes them all master class films.
>>43034280kino
>>43033449picrel despite bad ending. the outsider free women is kinomost living
>>43033449the only movie that made cry seven timest. bpdemon
>>43039893Holy normalfag taste
>>43039953i dont carei watched it when i was 18 and first started hormones alone in the darkest moment in my life and it rlly resonated with mei wanna get the laputa emblem tattooed on my arm one day ^^
>>43039893It’s a cute movie, haven’t seen it in a minute.
poetry with a splash of blood.
holy shit so many of you people have awful taste
>>43040484Mishima was such a hot crazy fuck
>>43040628Well yeah, it’s a random sampling of a couple dozen fags and trannies on 4chan, not a circle jerk of letterboxd power users
>>43040764I'm here, no? maybe you guys need to just up your game, it can't just be me and >>43040484 that actually like good films
>>43040852Watching enough movies to develop good taste can be a rather time intensive endeavor frankly.
>>43040852sorry some people have actual hobbies and only watch movies one or two times a month? lol
Is my favorite film tranny coded?
>>43040900Transbian coded yes
>>43040929I'm straight tho. I dated a girl once and I knew it was going right.
>>43040852>happy together>pierrot le fou>nashville>mauvais sang>fire walk with me>funeral parade of rosesall excellent films mentioned itt. either you didnt read the thread or you've got awful taste
>>43040852Okay I’m not an avid movie nerd, but I’ll put on my Try Hard panties and pull some titles. Let me know how much of a pleb I am lol. No particular order:Querelle - FassbinderBrand Upon the Brain- MaddinHiroshima mon amour - Resnai & DurasWoman in the Dunes- TeshigaharaThe Color of Pomegranates- ParajanovThe Koker Trilogy- KiarostamiWerckmeister Harmonies- TarrThe Hunters- AngelopoulosFreak Orlando- Ottinger
>>43033449Kill Bill pt1vnr
>>43035655You see this one? Similar vibe to Wild Zero- it’s a lot of fun
>>43033522Try listening to The Pavilion of Dreams, it's from the same composer
>>43041923lol my friend was trying to sell me on this movie recently.
>>43040900This film is just better lost highway
>>43033449Is this anything
>>43033449
>>43033449End of Evangelion
>>43043286I do find cars sexually attractive but crash was just stupid...
>>43043838>>43043286James Franco needs to make his fucking rant buster Casey adaptation movie already.
>>43043196no
I think this is the best movie ever made. I think anyone can enjoy it, from dumb boomers to snobby film critics. I used to fall asleep to it every night for years, and I have had to have seen it like 80+ times fully.
>>43041995That's a good album too. I think that's how I got mysterious skin in my recs. For
>>43045041its kino but not that great. the part in London sucks
>>43045041I remember liking it quite a bit, haven’t seen it in years though
>>43045277>the part in London sucksYeah it's slow for sure, and my least favorite part. But I think it's intentional to be snobby for a sec. One thing I like about this movie is it doesn't deny that drugs are fun. It slows down when he's not on heroin, and overall done with the withdraw. He chose life, it's not as exciting. And then when he shoots up again on the bus they have the climax of him making the score, having the standoff with Bigby in the bar, and him stealing the money, which IMO is a great set of scenes that are fast pace, and intense which parallels the excitement of doing/dealing drugs. >>43045343give it a go again, it's a short run time. 93 minute run time, and it starts pretty fast pace so it feels quicker
>>43045385yea I guess im too autistic for it. Like I don't understand why he hangs out with any of those people. Why does he go to the funeral for the aids guy. It just makes no sense to me. all his friends are such degens (except rent boy who could have my bussy anytime) that I don't want to see them. have u seen the remake? Im from Oakland (kinda) so I tried to watch it, but couldn't make it past the first scene lol
the human condition trilogy, i watched the entire 9 hours in a single sitting... good times
>>43045385Cool yeah I’m definitely due for a rewatch! Love a 90 minute movie too, so nice to not have to slog through another 2 and a half hour affair
>>43045425It is one of the best trilogies of all time although I think it dragged a bit in the 3rd part compared to how tight the first two were.
>>43045463that's funny because personally i liked the 3rd act the most, i like it when everything is utterly bleak and suffocating and dragging it out as you say can serve to amplify that atmosphere
>>43041084Classy list, I really need to watch the Koker Trilogy, I remember how much 'Taste of Cherry' by Kiarostami stuck with me as a kid, probably thought about it every week for 6 months.
>>43033449mysterious skin is a really really good movie. i think totally f***ed up emotionally resonated with me more though. its hard to actually say what my favourite movie is though. i also really like heaven knows what.
>>43048203Thanks anon, I tried to make a real movie snob list of some of my favorites to appease the guy complaining about all the people itt with pedestrian taste xD I’d like to watch more of Kiarostami’s films in general. I did a movie club with a few friends during lockdowns, and the first thing of his we watched was hid final movie “24 Frames”. 24 Frames has some interesting sequences, but parts of it also look very amateurish, and we frankly all found it an underwhelming slog. A year later I suggested we try the Koker trilogy to give Kiarostami a fair shot, and it ended up being one of my favorite things we watched during our whole time running the movie club.You’d recommend Taste of Cherry- have you seen anything else of his that was a standout to you?
>>43033449The only one of these that is really a "favorite" is ISTTVG. Yes i know im a massive stereotype. But that movie hit me so hard when i first saw it when i was like 3 weeks on E it cant not be one of my favorites. I think ill struggle to ever find a movie that hit me so hard and so directly, like i watched it 4 times in the week where i first saw it lol.Otherwise the favorites are kinda all over the place, eg: idk if Lemonade Joe is that good i just had 0 expectations going in and it blew me away. Eventho i watch a lot of movies i have a hard time picking faves, so these are just things i enjoyed before and put in there to have a bit of variety. Tho anytime i rewatch Sorry to Bother You im surprised how good it actually is, esp for a debut.Otherwise idk, been feeling like shit since the start of the year and not watching much. I did watch Raw (2016) though in february and really liked that, and Cutie Honey (2004) on new years which was fun.
>>43048751Oh I really liked Sorry to Bother You. It gets a little messy sometimes, but it’s very ambitious and feels like a well realized auteurial vision. Looks like he’s got another movie coming out this year- “I Love Boosters”
>>43048837Yeah im looking forward to that. The miniseries he did "Im a Virgo" was also really good iirc but its been a while since i watched it and ive only seen it once, where as Sorry to Bother Tou ive seen maybe 3 times i think.
Bump
>>43048751ISTTVG is awesome and further we get from it the more everyone is accepting how important and monumental that film was. We'll be talking about it in 30 years in documentaries
>>43051405Nahh I really think its overrated reeper slop, that will have declining cultural relevance over the next 20 years. Its neither approachable or uniquely batshit enough for cis audiences to care about it long term either.
this is my fav movie of all time and my boyfriend hates watching it with me because I sob like a baby 5 times throughout the runtimehe rlly hates seeing me cry
>>43043286Apparently Crash was a favourite of SOPHIE and Charli XCX'sHence the crashed car in the Transnation MV
