there’s no way you really liked this film. i mean i kind of liked it when it was released but i’d never watch it again (though also never quite forget the toaster scene and final scene)

Good film
Burnett's "Little Caesar"

Mann's Manhunter was great, too. Brian Cox had a great portrayal of Hannibal Lecter.

the discomfort of evening has a similar density of cringe inducing scenes and adresses childhood sexuality, but it is not funny.

I watched this movie like 3 years ago, haven't watched one since.
>>
>>25086886
kino or cringe?
>>
>>25086886
this is some sort of jp classic isn't it, I watched it years ago
>>
>>25086890
I thought it was one of the best movies I ever watched (I think only Stalker comes close) but I'm not a huge film buff in case my hiatus didn't give it away. But I can definitely see some aspects being seen as "cringe" by certain people.
>>25086894
Yes, I watched it by recommendation of a family member who is a film student.
>>
>>
>>25086890
It's about a bunch of entitled Jewish women, a pervert, and a pedophile pervert. Child rape is a prevalent theme. I couldn't finish it.

>>25086684
Is this the sequel to camp of the saints

>but it is not funny.
Are you implying Happiness is funny? I saw Happiness in the theater when it came out, most uncomfortable 2 hours of my life. It really was made for the group experience.

>I'm far too smart to have expected comedy from the film that was intended to be, marketed as, and universally considered to be a dark comedy.

He didn't imply, he explicitly stated it wasn't funny, ya fuckin' retard. What you meant to say was "are you implying that it was meant to be a comedy" and the answer is yes.

Last Exit to Brooklyn- Hubert Selby Jr.

>>25087537
well then you'll probably like the discomfort of evening, but happiness is intended to be a comedy. check this trailer.

That's a tough one The film actually improves on the novel it's based on.
Across Realtime by Vinge (around the edges. two books in one)

All right, let's give this a try.

>>25087457
I have a NYBR copy of Once and Forever | Tales of Kenji Miyazawa. Eight short stories of what I think will be magical realism like stories. But I admit I haven't gotten to it yet.

I love Akira Kurosawa's Dreams. Especially that final piece.

I've always itched for a book which felt like a Koreeda or Ozu movie, especially slice of life wholesome but melancholic stuff like Still Walking or Like Father Like Son.

i haven't seen anything by those two but perhaps you would like "the sound of the mountain" by kawabata. it's about a recently retired man developing dementia. very peaceful and very melancholy.

It's the ultimate Wes Anderson black satire. And decent lowfi scifi dystopia.
