Why didn’t it win Best Picture?
>>200797146Godfather 2.
midtown
>>200797280But Chinatown is much better.
>>200797146Forget it, Jake. It's Chinatown
>>200797346That's your opinion. They are both two of my favourite films but there are reasonable arguments for voters preferring Godfather over Chinatown just as there are reasonable arguments for the inverse.It's not a particularly egregious snubbing or anything. One classic film just lost to another.
>>200797146should have been called 'crisptown'
The 4K transfer looks great. Was a fun movie to rewatch. A little slow at times but I liked it
Am I the only person that thinks this movie is over rated? It's good but there were so many great and gritty movies with the same vibe that came out around the same time and I don't know what this is supposed to do better than those.Also the entire incest angle felt so fucking out of place. Like it's such a cool and tasteful movie, and then just, bam, deal with this, fuckers.
>>200798653It’s about how becoming rich and powerful turns you into a degenerate. Remember what Noah Cross says to Jake by the pond at Evelyn’s house?
>>200798653Name two
moral of the story>rich and powerful people can get away with anything even rape of young girls
>>200798794The ConversationLong GoodbyeLiterally anything from CassavetesFriends of Eddie CoyleNot necessarily noirs but they are rarely regarded as highly as Chinatown when they are arguably as good if not better
>>200798923That's not a moral, it's common knowledge
It exposed the pedo kikes who run Hollywood Im supposed Nicholsan wasn’t suicided for his involvement
>>200799923>Im supposedI'm seeing this complete failure of grammar more and more, you ESLniggers are just slowly butchering the english language until someone notices, aren't you?
>>200798653>Also the entire incest angle felt so fucking out of place. Like it's such a cool and tasteful movie, and then just, bam, deal with this, fuckers.Thats one of the reasons why its a classic
