>>205889807Post more of this Jew-owned ass.
>>205890001Nice. We just keep on winning.
New FOTW? Am I the only one who cares?I actually don’t care, since I didn’t watch last weeks.
They shot this in Vistavision apparently, I've been wanting someone to do that for a while.
>>205888792:(
>>205890966rolling
>>205892152152 is Calvary. the curse continues though I do really like this one
I have so far only finished two filmographiesHow many have you finished, anons? (considering a filmography over 3 films)
>>205892236>the curse continueslol yep. I liked it but it’s certainly not deserving of a spot or mention. If I were you I would’ve just kept cheating and rerolled
>>205889784Based as fuck and 100% true.
>>2058928755 or 6.
>>205892236How long until you stop?
>>205892875Spent a week binge marathoning Laughton and finally got it done, haven’t done anyone else yet
Film like Love & Pop, Bounce ko Gals and Peep TV Show?
Anora was quite funny but the cinematography clearly took a backseat to the plot in this one.The Florida Project was better.
>>205892236Jesus Christ, why not use the green/blue charts instead?
>>205894003Samaritan GirlClose Encounters of the Dangerous KindMade in Hong Kong Nomad
>>205893922once we finish the entire canon or people just stop caring
>>205875567i watched Borat since i had only had watched the sequel, still holds up>Salohehe not falling for that.>>205877037Mambo and car sex, kinda funny.>>205877270The comedy here was not for me but it was an interesting watch, great acting by hyppodromo.Sorry for the late reply and thanks
>>205895513>Samaritan Girl>NomadThanks anon
Just saw Chinatown in theaters. What did I think of it?
>>205892875Robert AldrichMichael MannMonte HellmanLarry CohenEdward YangJerry LewisJean VigoF.W. MurnauGerd Oswald
>>205896773You thought it was very good but not as a good as its fame would lead you to believe and that it's not one of Polanski's best. You also wished we still had actors like John Huston around.
>>205896781>Robert Aldrich>Monte Hellman>Gerd OswaldBased.
>tfw when you are too much of a brainlet to understand high cinéma
>>205897273No you're not, that's a girl movie, anon.
>>205897431t-thanks
>>205897273>>205897431Is this a good starting point to begin with the cinema of Kieslowski?
>>205897663I preferred Blue
>>205897663Dekalog was for me
>>205897663Amator
>>205889784>DePalmaStop writing it like that you swine.
>>205894003See that post Iwai trannyboxd list.
>>205897026nta but I watched that movie unkowing of its fame, and its reputation seemed fitting to me after I found out about it. It's just that good. Best Polanski is Knife in the Water though.
>>205898381>His Italian-American parents were Vivienne DePalma (née Muti), and Anthony F. DePalma,
Brian Palmer
Movies I avoid>anything about how "hard" it is to be rich>anything about how "hard" women, especially rich western women, have it>anything where it's just depressing grey sludge, usually british, about how life is futile>anything that has the whiff of "lmao do you really care lol that's for fags", hard to explain exactly but you know when you see it>a24Not exhaustive but with that list I haven't seen a new film in a while, because they're all shit
>>205896773The best thing about Chinatown that sometimes makes me want to rewatch it is John Huston playing himself.The worst and the reason I'll never rewatch it is Faye Dunaway looking like a busted hag only half a dozen years after Bonnie and Clyde.
>>205898648For me it's Repulsion.
>>205898786Back in the old days these undesirables had the decency to anglicise their names.
>>205891556>finally find a nitroflare premium link generator>the file it downloads is just 2.8gb of corrupted junk with mkv endingFUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU I WANT TO SEE THIS FUCKING FILM ALREADY
Anora torrent yet?
>>205895643Wouldn’t that take 10+ years? Think this site will still be around then? Will you still be posting then?Interesting to think about….
>>205899015I don't think that far ahead
>>205898971>2.8gb of corrupted junk That’s sounds like the film, so what’s your issue?
>>205898995Off topic
>>205899187I love miniskirts and upskirts
>>205897663>KieslowskiMight as well be a discount Żuławski. He's the Brian DePalma to Żuławski's Hitchcock. Watch Dekalog and don't bother with the rest.
>>205899138it's a corrupted file you fuckshit
I hadn't seen a movie since 2022 and only really watched Michael Mann stuff like Heat and Chinese martial arts flicks like Ip Man, with some comedies thrown in like Superbad.I saw Bresson's Lancelot Du Lac and County Priest 3 weeks ago and these are the greatest things I've ever seen in my life, better than any show and any anime or manga I've read. I'm 34 and feel inspired to get involved in the filmmaking process and draw now. I'm a NEET who failed to get a job as an engineer even with an engineering degree and started volunteering at a theater and met some people who were interested in hiring me as an audio tech trainee. Some of the women are pretty, too. I wrote this post out to laugh at myself and hopefully get a chuckle out of others, but if it wasn't for Bresson I'd probably be rewatching Gurren Lagann while sitting at my computer. This audio engineer is giving me a rundown on power supplies right now and how Logisys sucks ass. What the fuck has happened to my life? I still have hope it seems.
>>205898731I don't care about how some ignorant fuck registered his father's Italian surname, that's still not his name.
>>205899519You're inspiring me. I'm 30, have a computer science degree, and am a NEET. Can't get a job to save my life and I've been thinking of giving up
>>205898844A24 is producing the finest arthouse this generation has to offer. Men in particular was incredible. What's your issue with them?
>>205898971None of those "premium" link generators work, I've tried. You just have to either pay for nitroflare, or at least for debridleech and hope that works
>>205899645another engie here who's about to hit a 2 year gap lmaoI had a job for a year too, what the fuck happened to STEM? volunteering honestly doesn't sound like a bad idea to network
>>205899342A file of that film would indeed be a corrupted file, so what’s the problem?
>>205899785at least engineers get paidus pure science sissies work for free and people hold no respect for us, even worse, all our work ends up being used in any kind of modern warfare. it's a hard to swallow pill but the newtonian dream is over
>>205899519Is this pasta?
>>205900034What pure science and what work? The purest of sciences are usually surprisingly useless in the "real" world.
For me it's Michael Mann's Ferrari.
>>205900051Not at all.
>>205900310Based Jewlover.
>>205900241physicseverything apart from cosmology and strings autism will serve in future industrial processes, leading ultimately to newer forms of warfarewouldnt doubt u.s, israel, china and russia have neuroscientists researching advanced ways of psychological warfare
>>205897729>>205897784>>205898150>>205899326Thanks
>>205897026>>205898856Personally every scene with Nicholson and Dunaway/Huston was on another level compared to the rest of the film. It also, dare I say it, dragged at times.
>>205901379Covid was psychological warfare.Was it advanced? Technologically, absolutely, the way "correct" narratives were coming from all sources of public communication, news media and social media, simultaneously, coordinated and corrected practically in real time was of course both impressive and disturbing. But psychologically it was the same old thing that focused on our natural conformism: disinformation, deception, gaslighting, peer pressure. Nothing groundbreaking.Ukraine is psychological warfare.It's deeply ironic that covid died the day the Ukraine war started. But it also shows us that narratives come from the same source, in fact from one single source that is vast and powerful enough to handle all news media and social media as a monolithic entity and change its direction in a matter of hours. Technologically, it's extremely impressive. Psychologically, the methods are identical to the covid psyop, identical to those used on smaller scales for millennia. You can see for yourself, the psyop is still ongoing. Browse /pol/ for a while. Alien elements trying to psyop their psyops are extremely obvious, as obvious as people doing shitposting and trolling here in /film/. They haven't improved since 2020 at all. They aren't trying to improve. They aren't advanced at all. For now, at least.
>>205899703anon...
>>205900803Sorry then, anon, it just really reads like pasta.
>>205898844>anything about how "hard" it is to be richCan you give 3 examples? >anything about how "hard" women, especially rich western women, have itCan you give 3 examples? >anything where it's just depressing grey sludge, usually british, about how life is futileCan you give 3 examples? >anything that has the whiff of "lmao do you really care lol that's for fags", hard to explain exactly but you know when you see itCan you give 3 examples?
>>205905176No because all those movies are shitAnother one is>poster has multiple women on itDropped
>>205898844>>205905176I would like examples of that last one as well, i really didn't get it.
>>205903531You're a fucking retard, you should kill yourself, unironically
The last one is definitely A24>have some weird le wacky vague ending>uhhhhh it means whatever you heckin want :)under the silver lake is fucking horrible in general, but especially horrible with its ending
>>205892236unironically great kino
>>205905267Holy filtered, does your mommy still spoonfeed you?
>>205905211I can name tons of shit films. You can’t even give 3 examples of them.
>>205905351Wait until you graduate high school, the world becomes infinitely more scary, but infinitely more freeing
>>205905351>A24>FilteredThis can't be serious. Anon, this thread is for the adults, go play in the rest of /tv/.
>films with terrifying premises
>>205905506If you keep saying underage things you'll keep hearing me tell you to graduate, simple as
>>205905506Lol so you're stalking that anon and somehow that makes him mentally ill, hmm
Holy samefag lmao
>>205905606>>205905642Not even me, retard, you keep posting the same fucking thing everyday>me don't like>me call underageWhat a fucking dense nigger
Films for this schizokino feel?
>>205905787Repulsion.
Is costaricanon back from his ban yet?
>>205905916Hopefully not
>>205905767I recognize that at 24 I'm older than probably 99% of this general, and that I'm pathetic for still browsing this site, but you seriously need to lose the ego and simply watch more films with less mental baggage. Being an adult is terrifying, I understand. I've weathered the storm and have been reborn, and I simply approach cinema in a different way than you or your peers do. It's all part of growing up.
>remembering those times in high school and the first few years after graduation where i was a completely pretentious arthousefagHilarious looking back
>>205889639Any good rips of The Mysterians around?
>>205905787Jacob Ladder
what am I watching tonight?recommend something leaving the channel end of November
>>205906629nigga im 21 and feel like i wasted my life since i was 16 lol and the average /film/ poster is on the 30 year old range
>>205906773Manhunter
>>205906664This is me at 31, just barely watching common /film/ picks. It's embarrassing having only 21 - 25 year olds to talk about movies with.
>>205906629The enlightened 24 year old mind, everyone.
>>205906664As a kid, I was a pleb that just blindly accepted that anything which won awards and acclaim was good including Bergman and Godard. What an embarrassing era.
>>205907014I remember when I thought Stalker and Solaris were brilliant. Terrifying days.
>>205906664I remember thinking Tarantino was the best out there when I was 15
>>205906629>>205906891The majority of /film/ are in their 30s.
>>205907085I'm really glad i never had a "Tarantino is a genius" phase.
>>205907101Lmaoooo no fucking way broHow the fuck are these guys 30+ and on 4chan? I'm 21 and feel like a fuckupat 30 I expect to be married and own a home not argue with other men online about tsai lmao
>>205906888seen it
>>205907150I didnt either thats because we are based individuals
>>205907150Dude is good at what he does but thinking he is the best on the game is retarded lmaoI had those thoughts at 13-14 when I started watching his flicks. Still love Kill Bill and Reservoir Dogs tho. Can't tell who is my favorite director, specially when I haven't even watched enough films nor filmographies to determine that. I'll always have him in my heart, along with Wright, Taxi Driver and American History X.
>>205907365>film is about how bad racism is>nazi gets raped in the shower>the white characters act just as destructive and retarded as the blacks they hate>the blacks are retarded stereotypes>the white kid gets shot anyway by the blacksWhat the fuck did they mean by all this
>>205903531WAG THE DOG (1997, Barry Levinson) was revelation of the method.
>>205907310Don't care
>>205907429I haven't watched it since 2016-17. Didn't pick up such decisions by then-
>>205907458its not that good anon
>>205907293>at 30 I expect to be married and own a home not argue with other men online about tsai lmaoSo did we ;)
>>205907072wait until you leave whatever pretentious phase you're in to realize they actually are objectively brilliant. i estimate you'll get there once you get past 3k films
I have never watched a single Tarkovsky film despite knowing about him since 2018Same but with Harakiri (also 2018)
>>205907601This. I have a feeling anon’s gonna get humbled sometime in the near future lol
>>205897784Dekalog was enough. Binoche & other females being pensive for hours no thanks
>>205905428
just wanted to write something
>>205907072I remember when I thought DePalma was low-brow and cringe, and that the pinnacle of the medium were people whose movies I didn't understand at all

>>205909458BASED, thank you.
>>205909458I expected more than just a carbon copy of late Godard, kek.
Watching this documentary on TCM about film collectors and this geezers are kind of insane.

>>205912970They're saying shit like "every line and crack you see in celluloid reminds us that we're human" and "when you see grain in a still image it's moving just like humans move and are alive"
>>205913416They hate Peep Show but not Peep TV Show because Japanese thing good
>>205913329it was already relatively popular on trannybox, the troons took it from there to Twatter most likely

You idiots are acting like 4chan isn't 70% trans
>>205913923I doubt the latinos and hapas that live here are demoralized enough to transition. They just keep chudmaxxing.Even on /fa/shion the only trannies live on the WAYWT threads doing their discord raids. You would assume they'd post there but they don't. /fa/ is mostly gay dudes and anorexic women.

We're all latino bvlls here
>>205914363That car is so cool.
>>205914429I'm counting reppers too.
>>205914452Indeed.
>>205914303I'm sure. And I appreciate their film preservation work, but it's still very silly. They're talking about how they need to screen these films and teach younger people how to screen them, like proteges, so it can be continued on into the future. It's a nice sentiment but realistic. And even though I love and prefer the look of film I just can't help but find digital doomerism stupid. There are issues for sure and the past should be preserved but films and filmmaking need to embrace the present. So much is so antiquated.
>>205913923I would fuck a qt tgirl, but I would never say (s)he is a woman
Nothing and no one should embrace the present, what the absolute fuck.
>>205914912Whoops, forgot to post image.Kino time. Tonight I'm watching Phenomena (1985) with two shots of Johnny Walker Red. Haven't ever really watched any Dario Argento movies except for Suspiria, which I really didn't pay any attention at the time.What do you guys think about Dario Argento? If I like this, what should I watch next? I'll be back with thoughts afterwards
>>205914967I like Argento's films, but at the same time I agree that he's not really on topic. stick to /hor/. anyway, Opera is my favorite
>>205914745>films and filmmaking need to embrace the presentThey do, unashamedly; that's the whole problem.
>>205914967>What do you guys think about Dario Argento?A good schlockmaker. Suspiria is obviously gigakino and everyone knows his 70s and 80s joints are enjoyable, but I feel his 90s films are particularly underrated.>If I like this, what should I watch next?Suspiria or Opera.
>>205915149yeah hes really derailing all the discussion of film itt right
>>205914967Love him. Watch Tenebre or Inferno next.
>>205915149Argento is classic. Get real. No one complained about discussing Argento on /film/ before retards made /hor/ a year long general.
>>205915176No they don't you fucking idiot
>>205915713They do by being absolute dogshit, just like you.
when do we get a rip of the count of monte cristo?
If we can talk about argento then we can talk about de palma
>>205916408We could always talk about De Palma. Argento sucks.
>>205913382Anything from likes 1934 onward is generally considered 10/10.

Just saw this. Easily the most experimental film of 2024.
>>205917895Welcome to the club.
>>205916408Yes, of course, both are /film/.>>205916664Let's not go crazy there.

>>205913382Everything with certain level of perversity like Vertigo, Notorious, Marnie, Frenzy are kino. The ones which are more mystery/tension focused can be hit and miss.
>>205914967He's good. You should go back to Suspiria and follow it by Inferno (his best film). Then watch Deep Red (his second best film)
>>205922041>Inferno>his best filmlol

Thoughts on digital vs film in modern cimema?
>>205922262Too infernal.
>>205922351If you know what you’re doing and care about the finished result, digital can either out perform film on a technical level or can emulate film looks to a near identical levelThe problem is, most crew either don’t know what they’re doing, don’t care, or both

>>205922970>visual prowessi'm not so easily impressed with >muh argento pretty colors. it's for dullards. this singular shot alone mogs it
>>205922180Easily his best film simply because it almost completely eschews any attempt at making a coherent narrative and instead of that pushes further into the nightmarish/dream territory. It's like Suspria on steroids. It might also be due to Bava working on it and he's 10 times the director Argento is.
>>205923108>Brazilian>shamelessly lying
>>205923272>he's 10 times the director Argento is.ain't that the truth
>>205923209You're the only person who mentioned pretty colours.>this singular shot alone mogs itLmao
>>205923511it's okay you'll understand when you watch more films.
>>205922351It's been pretty clear over the years that the only retards who think film > digital in 2024 are /tv/tards who watch 5 Marvel slops per year. Even if there're some issues with digital, the level of film stocks right now is simply not good enough. You can't tell me that some of the slop shot on film currently is better than the digital works. The issue with digital is that lot of people treat it like 35mm film. The best digital films are made by people who understand it better than that so people like Costa with his methods of working, Serra with his whole philosophy, Carax with how consciously artificial he tries to be etc. I can't really think of any great filmmaker working with film right now. Last one was maybe Grandrieux.
>>205923571Nice cope.
>>205922262Because Suspiria and Phenomena exist.>>205922561Even back when it wasn't "good yet" if you knew what you're doing it could look kino, just look at Costa's Colossal Youth.>>205922615>Kieslowskilol>Linklaterlmao

I saw Machine Gun McCain with Cassavetes, Rowlands and Falk last night. Now I need more B-movies with high class actor ensembles, any recs?
>>205907293>>205907293I am truly pathetic: left /tv/ for a decade to do Normie Shit but returned after exhausting various other film discussion forums and fucking up the job, long-term relationship and OE. ...on the bright side might watch an Antonioni with some pot noodles and maybe some hot sauce on toast as a midnight snack : )
good morning sirsnice day in delhi
>>205924068I can't see how one would really understand it without being Brazilian. It's not dense, on the contrary really, but it is very much inserted into Northeastern culture. It's quite the same thing with Rocha's Deus e o Diabo na Terra do Sol, but in this case it's indeed a somewhat dense film.
I feel there's a lot of morality in the media. Bias is inevitable, but the media, especially mainstream media, wants to teach us things. And I don't like it
>>205927568All art is political. You just notice it more now because white liberal millennials are awful writers.
>>205928631Yes, political. But morality is something more blurred in non-mainstream cinema. People can take a Godard movie and they can get>Communist manifesto>Godard Fetishes>Classicism>Facist tendenciesAnd in general personal expression. Mainstream cinema is audience tested and the creative vision can be squashed by third parties.
>>205928631>All art is political.Only in a vacuous sense
>have superior, elder god tier kino taste>no arthoes>no new followers >no recognition whatsoever>all I get is miseryLife is suffering if you're a kino patrician.
>>205929103Are you sure you're not just a pretentious faggot?
>>205927566I'm not Brazilian or from any related culture and I think Vidas Secas is a total masterpiece. Macunaima is very funny shit too even if the humor is supposed to be just for the regional audiences
>>205928808Not sure what you're trying to say.
>>205927566The movie is about how southerners see people from the north. It's a long literary tradition. Brazilian films are highly influenced by European and American cinema, but Brazil has its own cultural canon to draw on
>>205929441That non-mainstream movies are difficult to pin down in a particular category.
>>205922180He has too much kino to put Inferno in his top 3-5.
>>205914967Suspiria is his best. Rewatch that next then check out Tenebre and Opera. If you like these, look into Deep Red and Inferno after. These are all great films so like other anons ITT, you could find yourself claiming any of them are Argento’s best.>>205915149Fuck off, Argento is obviously /film/. Plus his films are discussed on /hor/ all the time so it’s nice to read a different opinion.>>205916408Two of my favorite directors; let’s do it.
>>205930374>Two of my favorite directors; let’s do it.Harperfag not only has awful taste in women, but in directors as well. what a surprise -_-
>>205929103>no new followerswho cares about followers? if you are only watching "superior, elder god tier kino" to attempt to gain followers, you don't actually like the films
any films that'll help me cope with cheating? it really hurts
>>205930672
>>205930672L'Amant de cinq joursA beautiful, melancholic, almost serene film about Jean Seberg cheating on her nerd husband and him forgiving her.
>>205931002>and him forgiving herreally not what I need right now but thank you anon, I'd prefer something post-break up that doesn't actually portray the act taking place, just the character coping afterwards, trying to find some normalcy in life again after everything that happened, something about moving on
>>205930545Just admit you don’t like my opinion because I’m a waifufag. It’s easier than calling Argento and De Palma awful.
>>205931666I like Argento, but I only consider him a good director FOR HORROR (an extremely low bar) and he is nowhere near one of my favorite directors. I genuinely do not like De Palma tho. very mediocre director
>>205930374>Two of my favorite directorsWoeful taste
>>205914952Coward.
>>205914952>muh nostalgia

>>205889639So Shiterion has The Mysterians and a bunch of other classic Toho movies on their channel, but they won't release them on Region 1 blu-rays. I wonder if it's a rights situation, but I can't imagine Toho would be against releasing these movies on physical media in North America when they've had Japanese blu-ray releases for years. I think it's just Criterion being lazy, even though they would have a built-in customer base of American Godzilla/Toho fans. The Mysterians is maybe not so popular, but physical releases of movies like Rodan and War of the Gargantuas would sell fairly well.
>>205933039the girl looks at the filming crew at 8 seconds
>>205929452>The movie is about how southerners see people from the north.What movie? If you're talking about O Auto da Compadecida then I concede there is some southern bias, but to say the movie is about this bias is absurd, specially considering the source material.
>>205931092Flic, unironically.
>>205932101Don’t make me use the p-word.
>>205931897What are some of your favorite movies or directors?
>>205933670Go back
>>205931897>FOR HORROR (an extremely low bar)Maybe if it's genre trash like the Exorcism of Literally Who 12 but otherwise I don't think this is true. Why do you think so?

>>205909458Godardian
>>205934486The ultimate simp act.
>>205934094too many to list, but I've really been liking Raul Ruiz recently >>205934247horror has the largest trash to kino ratio of any genre imo. like 99% of horror films are just bottom of the barrel trash. so to be an accomplished horror director, all you really need to do is shoot a film that stands out among the wasteland that is horror
I had a dream that the newest Tsai feature film got released it was in the theater and I brought my mom to see it for some reason and he was also there to do a Q&A afterwards but what basically happened was that it was in English language and TaiwaneseThe whole plot of the film was Lee trying to find out what exactly was going on with these UFO like bowling balls that were falling and killing everyone and there was also another like Anglo American actor who's really popular who is in the movie but I forgot who it was exactly it was either like Chris Pine or Chris Hemsworth or something like that but in any case the main focus of the film was sort of on the featuring to unravel the mystery of the deadly UFO bowling balls Lee was the only one there and he was running the whole thing and he was speaking and broken English and it was kind of crazy because he was playing scientist but he was also just like crazy like Jeff Goldblum in one of those movies where he plays a crazy science personThere was another famous actor that was like Chris Hemsworth or Chris Pine or one of those other in glue Chris actors who was in it he was like the co-lead but the main focus was on Lee who is trying to figure out the mystery of the UFO bowling balls I didn't get to finish the movie I woke up like somewhere in the middle of it but I really wanted to know what was what the Q&A was gonna be like that was really interesting because everyone in the theater was taking pictures of himAnyone else have this dream? I want to know how the film ended.
>>205934486Lmao
>>205909458Best film of the year so far for me. Unfortunately my French is rusty so I didn't understand all of it but this was a lot of fun, despite some flaws.

>>205935166I rarely dream these days, feels bad.
