What is cinema?

>>205768663
Matt Walsh should make a documentary on that very topic!

>>205768601
rightwingers only watch films to make themselves feel comforted/reassured in the beliefs spoonfed them by Fox News and Elon Musk. they don't care about artistic value or art itself. look at the kinds of grifters they are obsessed with. the whole "anti-woke" scene. The Daily Wire. its a joke.
why would we encourage that?

I acknowledge that, and my definitions may be a bit different than yours. For me, all films that endorse views are bad. A good film captures the truth and allows the audience to interpret, rather than attempting to condition the audience to hold a view.

So from that perspective I would argue that films like Sound of Freedom are bad films because they are heavy handed, propagandistic, even though they appeal to right-wingers. And likewise, leftist films that try to condition people (90% these days) are bad.

>>205771148
>The Wicker Man
A core theme in the movie is the survival of ancient matriarchal fertility religion in a region dominated by patriarchal Anglo-Saxons. It shows the horror of the feminine without proper restraint, how it lies in wait even when appearing to have been conquered.

>Hardcore
While masquerading as a critique of the Puritan mindset, the overall effect of the movie is to leave the audience with an impression of the dishonesty and degeneracy of the liberal way of life. The critique of the father can remain intact without disturbing the critique of the sex industry, suggesting the possibility of a middle path between the extremes.

>Deliverance
At first glance, it appears to be a typical Hollywood swipe at the whites living in flyover country. But if you choose to disregard the politics of perceptions of Appalachia, the real conflict is between man as a beast and man that overcomes the beast within. The two effeminate, liberal men suffer for it, and survival is achieved only through masculinity. If you view the leftist as a materialist, as a beast, resenting the successes of those who master themselves instead of letting their base desires master them, then the movie is deeply conservative despite its facade.

The Wicker Man is much deeper than it initially appears. It is deeply connected to theories about Phoenician/Western Semitic religious practices influencing Celts/Druids, for example. An understanding of those themes/theories/realities makes the movie a political statement in the context of an occult war that rarely becomes visible to the mainstream eye.

I think it's fair to say that leftism opposes masculinity, and that rightists support it. To me, the true essence of leftism is the resentment of superiority, stemming from the leftists own feelings of inferiority, as my Uncle Ted used to say. Anything that depicts the triumph of strength, truth, righteousness, masculinity, self-mastery, etc, is inherently right-wing for me. In some cases, I think directors only get away with making works that support those things by cloaking them in the facade of liberalism.

I'm not either; I'm libertarian. But in terms of today's politics that makes me an ultraconservative nazi. The only dichotomy that matters is between good and evil. All others are false dichotomies. But today leftists are so closely aligned with evil that anyone who supports simple goodness is right-wing by default.

>>205773150
90% of what I read is academic books, with almost nothing being explicitly political. But the books I have found most influential to my thinking are Walden, the Meditations of Marcus Aurelius, The Apology of Socrates and related dialogues, the Dhammapada, Might is Right (not taking it straight), and the Manipulated Man. I also place high value on Atrahasis, Gilgamesh, Enuma Elish, The Iliad and the Odyssey, and Hesiod. Understanding the soul of mythology refines a man in ways that little else can.

The most likely thing is that those spy movies were just a product of the trends of the time, particularly the influences in fashion and design. I don't think they have a particular name as in a genre, etc.

how do you come to terms with the fact that Ridley Scott is an unabashed, unmitigated hack considering he's made some the 20th century's greatest kino?

>>205776025

I want to make blockbuster non-stop action kino but I can't

>>205776113
Just shoot a 5 minute action scene for starters. Melee combat. Or perhaps guns. Just learn how to do good muzzle flashes in post if you can't film shooting blanks in a safe environment.

>>205776025
Napoleon [Director's Cut] is a masterpiece.

Not arthouse but what y'all thoughts on Park Chan Wook?

Stop making up racist names

does anyone else struggle with subtitled films? i feel you never really fully understand films in any language you're not fluent in, as not only do subtitles disrupt the flow of dialogue, but it draws the viewers eyes away from what the filmmaker intended for the audience to be focused on.

>>205776698
I have only watched Oldboy and Sympathy. Liked Sympathy the most. Haven't keep up with Joon-ho, I haven't even watched Parasite and I downloaded it when it was released lmao.

The first I clicked said some shit about the bechdel test. I'm thinking it's some movie conessieur term I'm not familiar with. But a faggot is just complaining that there's not enough women in the movie, lmao

The 2nd reviewer I checked out said that Rosemary's child is a GENTILE ANXIETY MOVIE, and cried about antisemitism.

I shit you not. The first 2 reviewers I checked out. Is that an averge letterbox reviewer?

pretty much. that's why I said to avoid the community. if you make an account, you can block users, which stops their reviews from showing up. that can help a bit, but the amount of retards you'd have to block to make the review section usable is astronomical
