Yet another movie about an incel from Paul Schrader, surprise surprise.
The most disappointing movie i've seen in a while.Was expecting a movie about his life and his philosophy, what i got was an anthology of cheap student-tier experimental art shorts, that played him out to be a dribbling idiot.
This one baffles me. I like Mishima, Glass, and Schrader (somewhat) and yet I cannot endorse this movie.On the other hand - Mishima's film Patriotism ... any thoughts? Personally, I thought it was badass.I think Osamu Dazai was far more of an incel than Mishima for what it's worth.
>>214521927That's all he ever was.
>>214522177Not sure if this is bait but the Sea of Fertility tetralogy is better than anything you've ever done. It's immaculate.
>>214521857>incel>marriedWhat does 'incel' even mean anymore?
>>214522262Sure it is you faggot simp incel. Take his shrimp sized dick out of your mouth when you're done posting.
Boring ass movie.
>>214522262I finished them earlier this year and i've wondered how they could be adapted, and if it's even worth it. I wonder if they would be better as one long movie or just four movies.Also the version of Runaway Horses in this movie felt very different from the book. I guess they were going for general feel rather than plot
>>214522407Liking a book doesn't make you a faggot.Have you read any of his books? Cause if not, you don't have an opinion.
>>214522494Liking faggot scriptures makes you a faggot. Are you mad? Closeted boy.
>>214521857mishima wasn't an incel he was just closeted
confessions of a mask is quite honestly the gayest thing I've ever read like not haha that's gay dude but full blown homosexualabsolutely btfo'd my Dazai and it's not even close
>>214522512He has a couple books that are shorter if reading is difficult for you.
>>214522530a brutal auto correct of my instead of byI kneel someone please spend 30 minutes hacking off my head with a blunt sword
>>214522492That's a good question. It would be important to convincingly convey the cyclical portrayal of time/reincarnation cinematically. Picrel gives similar vibes.
>>214522292Anything sexually "wrong" with men I guess. If OP used his brain a little he would call Mishima a closeted homo, which he was, but since Anon can't see why someone would be closeted about sucking cocks his brain goes to incel.Anyway, movie was too much style over substance and the style, while beautiful in a few shots, gets boring pretty fast and was nothing new. It's a common trend that people with very interesting lives usually get the worst movies.
>>214522517He was openly faggot
>>214522592That's okay, your meaning was clear. I've only read No Longer Human so not much breadth but I thought it was giving off Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man vibes ... a way gayer book than any of the aforementioned.
>>214522646nice someone with accurate biographical background ... he was married and also non-closeted, and also did not kill himself for sexual identity reasons ... I think this all just points to an idiosyncratic cultural context
>>214522045Osamu Dazai hook up with many women. He was a sigma male
There's a reason why this one is less discussed and it's because it sucks.
>>214522530He was gayer than gay
>>214521927>Was expecting a movie about his life and his philosophybut it's that
>>214523116I am willing to believe you, but then why was he so emo in that damn book? It was more self-pitying than Salinger.
>>214523550Because he's a stupid faggot.
>>214523786What's your favorite book, anon?
