>>215881408WHAT UP DINGO NATION!!! got a cool review for you of a classic curtiz/ flynn joint, The Sea Hawk. Drop a like and ring that bell asap!!!>Swashbuckling adventure. Beautifully lensed, shadows from two fencers darting across the background is a highlight, as is a panning shot of some galley slaves. That alone puts it above Captain Blood, which I mostly bounced off of. The script is functional but Flynn basically never interacts with his love interest (Brenda Marshall, who looks alright I guess) outside of two short scenes and then spends a good chunk of it traipsing through the jungle/ in chains. That first action scene really makes an impression, but this is relatively light on action for most of the runtime. Overall, it looks fantastic, there's some great action and the script does its job even if the middle act drags. Great work from Sol Polito.https://letterboxd.com/dingoatemybabi/film/the-sea-hawk-1940/
>>215881525>which I mostly bounced off ofAs stout men are wont to do.

HIGHEST~ ~ 2 ~ ~LOWEST
You're forced to pick, watch Tyler Perry's entire madea cinematic universe including filmed theater or Żuławski's on the silver Globe two times in a row. What do you do?
>>215882224A 1000% Tyler Perry, then I can make an epic video essay and get big bucks. With the Zul, I think I'd jump off my window at like 10 minutes.
>>215882111your ass = mine
>>215882299mine = craft
You're forced to pick, Lou Reed's metal machine music, Sonic Youth's discography or a collection of the best farts of Syd Barret?
>>215882315craft = werk
>>215881459His best performance IMO
>>215882322I think I'm going Syd on this one. Floyd was nothing without his gaseous contributions.
>>215882322Bad Moon Rising by Sonic Youth has samples from Metal Machine Music on the third track.... you fake fan
You niggas don't even watch films.
>>215882445I do watch films, but I seldom watch /film/s anymore.
>>215881459>>215882381Mishima was an admirer of this joint
>>215882464Do you watch them solely for entertainment?
>>215882432So what's your point? They're hacks
>>215882488Sometimes, but mostly for the experience. I think one should learn about every kind of thing in life, including joints, flicks and even spliffs and blunts.
>>215882565And stoner comedies
>>215882445i emphatically do;>>215881525i also just finished watching the mississippi gambler, so watch out for that review tomorrow!
>>215882484Some days I consider it in my top 5 of all time. It doesn't go deep into its ideas but its a nice Hitchcockian style thriller with a pitch black atmosphere and cynicism.
>>215882484Mishima was an admirer of anything that involved shirtless men.
>>215882565>>215882590Oh hell yeah.
>>215882224I'll watch all of Tyler Perry over watching On the Silver Globe ONCE.
>>215882833Kinda insane that all these stoners from these unc ahh movies are essentially the coolest niggas from their respective race and provide a harsh contrast to the busters represented in said movies. Hmm.
>>215874178>Comment.Reussir.Quand.On.Est.Con.Et.Pleurnichard>A story about a guy who still lives with his mother and sells some really awful alcohol to bartenders. The only way for him to do this is to cry and invent himself an awful life. Then he meets the beautiful woman whose goal in life is to sleep with the less exciting guys on Earth.Wow.... He's literally and unequivocally me.
>>215882915Shut up and put your hands where my eyes can see.
>>215882721Acting like AI: Artifical Intelligence isn't the greatest film of the 21st century.
>>215883077i have il buco, spirited away and the grand budapest hotel as the best movies of the 21st century, in that order
>>215882833My #1 blunt rotation pick
>>215882445Yes I do. I'm the coolest guy around.
>>215883310Why would you say something so controversial yet so brave?
She looked mad greasy and unwashed in this joint (heh), you can almost smell the stink coming from the screen.... Jean-Luc did her so dirty... And to think Anna Karina thought he made her look ugly in Vivre sa vie...
>>215882322>implying noise music is undesirableYou'll Cowards Don't Even Like Noise>>215883470>did her so DIRTYHehe
>>215883077uh?
>>215884121Jonathan Rosenbaum has this thing where he keeps bringing up A.I. Artificial Intelligence and exalting it as one of the greatest films ever, regardless of the context. I've mentioned this here once, but in the Metropolis (1927) Blu-ray commentary, he breaks into a laudatory spiel about how it's a masterpiece, and the co-host is dead silent throughout it.
>>215881408
>>2158831001/3 ain't bad
>>215884637which one did i get right
>>215881459Same.
Oh it's one of these threads huh.
>>215884693TITAN
>>215885049oh based. i thought people in these threads didn't like slow cinema
>>215885099He was a staple of this general like a year ago thanks to me and another anon. We are Frammartino's strongest soldiers.
>>215884201Nice
A film with subtitles is a failed film.>>215885049Blessed.
>>215883100You giving Grand Budapest a 10/10 is one of the very few things we agree on.
>>215885224Off-topic, you know what to do.

Original transfer.
>>215885842New one is better. Cope.
Criterion 4K that just dropped.The color grading is the most notable difference, but they also seem to have changed (fixed) the aspect radio.
>>215885842>>215885870https://slow.pics/c/zi2sZctE
Seems like the new one doesn't have DNR like the original. Much grainier now. Good.
>>215885740He's right though.
>>215886021It's more accurate to the version actually shown in theaters.Kubrick was extremely autistic and attentive about the home media versions of his films, which makes the most famous version of EWS being fucked up in silly ways (vertically stretched) even more bizarre.
>>215885355When will americans get over Epstein and stop talking about it?
>>215886017New one looks similar to the 35mm scan but without the worn out colours. Everyone complaining about the restoration just doesn't like change from what they're used to, even if it's wrong.
>>215886084Why would anyone stop talking about it you fucking pedo kike?
>>215886114Because nothing's gonna happen and it's annoying.
>>215886282>STOP WANTING PEDOPHILES ELITES TO BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE BECAUSE... JUST STOP OK? IT'S ANNOYING
>>215886282>Nothing's gonna happenYou don't know for sure if anything's gonna happen or not.>It's annoyingI guess you don't care about much in life.

>>215886084She was literally a 17 year old child
>>215881459The scene he seduces Machiko Kyo with his new face is primo MILF in afternoon quickie. She had never been more sensual.
>>215885578He never said that.

>>215886772He did, I was there
>>215885355Limited Hangout, look it up. Drip method to give the illusion of equality under the law. The feel you look for is Soviet films, like BEWARE OF CAR. Or TO LIVE 1994.
>>215886772He did, twice.

>>215885542So was Naruse gay cos Nakadai in Naruse is like gay male fantasy
>>215886811They go to the same NYC functions, Tribecca etc. He has to lie for homeboy.
>>215886804In reality, this case is another one where chiggas got to the essence of the matter in a way more effective way than other varieties of niggas. The film in question is "THE BAD SLEEP WELL" (1966).
>Had "Harakiri" on my list for years, never got around to it for some reason>Watch it yesterday for Nakadai >It's excellent:)
Given the recent wave of shitty musician biopics (Dylan, Springsteen, MJ, four fucking Beatles films), I'm surprised there hasn't been anything on the greatest, or at least the most important, jazz musician of all time.Spike could direct it. His whole life story is already extremely cinematic. He was a victim of police brutality, he was rejected by the establishment and then embraced by it and then rejected by it again (by going electric), a drug addict, a literal fucking pimp (SHO-NUFF). Come on now.

>>215890455Some do.
>>215890530Is this the english food i heard about?
>>215889104I'll be the dissenter here and say that Fallen Angels was much better than Chungking because it didn't do the manic pixie Faye Wong bullshit. It's more nocturnal and melancholic, though it still has the same problems with soap-opera characterization and vibe-killing needle drops.I don't hate Wong Kar-Wai but I genuinely never understood why he's considered a great

Couldn't dig this one, which surprised me since I normally love grimy Japanese stuff.Weirdly boring for how loud and chaotic everything was. Two hours of AAAAAAAAHHHHHHH SHINEEEEEEEEE while the cameraman has an epileptic fit.
>>215891061>I wonder how her ass looksAnon, she's a skinny chinese woman...

Lee Kang-sheng has an infinitely better ass than Faye Wong.

>>215891657Late Bresson, Frammartino joints, the list goes on. Some may have bits of diegetic music, can't remember.
>>215890000not necessarily. also you don't need to brown it to make shredded chicken in a pressure cooker, which also counts as 'boiled chicken' in my book.

Any film from the 1970s that takes place in NYC is already an 6/10 before i even start it.

Just watched Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon for the first time. Every thing about the movie was excellent except for everything involving Zhang Ziyi's character. It felt like the film was trying way too hard to get viewers to be sympathetic with her character, when she's just a spoiled and privileged little rich young woman whose selfishness, woman moments, impulsiveness, adventurism and arrogance is the cause of nearly all the death and destruction in the story. Even the movie's actual "villain" (Jade Fox) angrily chastises Zhang Ziyi's character for stealing Li Mu Bai's sword, and rightfully so, because if Zhang Ziyi didn't do that, none of the bad things in the movie would have happened.And by the end of the movie, we don't even get any kind of 100% certainty as to whether or not she pays for her crimes. She jumps off the bridge to help fulfill her lover's wish--a callback to that earlier legend mentioned in the film by the lover about a man jumping off a mountain to fulfill his wish of saving his parents--but the movie doesn't give us any definitive answer as to whether or not she actually dies or whether the legend is true. It's left ambiguous. Did she die after jumping? Or did she transcend and reach enlightenment? If Zhang Ziyi's character was actually a rich young man, people would be writing endless articles about toxic masculinity. But because the character is a woman, viewers on comments sections on YouTube all let her off the hook for her crimes. It's genuinely baffling. Are the people worshiping her character just chicklit fans who wished they could be in her shoes so that they can experience all these women moments without repercussions and have everyone love her and revolve their world around trying to influence her?
>>215894192Post the movie poster with your review. Yes, the movie's cool. I like the Itachi-esque princess villain.
>>215894368Sorry, I'm new to /film/. I've only started delving into classic cinema very recently. Is that how it's usually done when you post reviews? But yeah, I still really enjoyed the experience of watching CTHD overall. Just baffled by how it handles morality.
>>215894402>Is that how it's usually done when you post reviews?Yes, makes your post look prettier.
>>215894402>Just baffled by how it handles morality.It's a chinese film.
WHAT UP DINGO NATION!!! got a cool review for you of a classic julie adams joint, The Mississippi Gambler. Drop a like and ring that bell asap!!!>Stunning period drama. Tyrone Power looks old and leathery in this, Julie Adams looks great though she's barely in it. Beautiful lighting and compositions from Irving Glassberg, especially the night scenes on the riverboat. Not a lot of action in it, other than a few brief scuffles and a pistol duel. The visuals and Julie Adams are just that good, and Tyrone Power is a functional leading man. One to watch.https://letterboxd.com/dingoatemybabi/film/the-mississippi-gambler/

Do you fuckers even read? Genuine question. I don't get the point of having an encyclopedic knowledge of world cinema but knowing the bare minimum about theatre or theatrical traditions.
>>215898679Currently going through The Illuminatus! trilogy. A character just jacked off fantasizing of Sophia Loren's breasts
>>215898758Fair play. I find RAW's digressions on Finnegans Wake very entertaining, but I haven't read any of his literary work.
>>215898679Theatrical plays were written to be played, not read.

We're all lunatics here.
>>215900005Nakadai was born before the war, survived air raids, starvation, and the chaos of post-war Japan, and still clawed his way to the top.Of course his quality, grit, and presence are on a completely different level compared to the pampered actors who only popped up after Japan got rich.It’s not even the same species of dedication.
>>215900005Thanks for the post, Gaylord.
>>215900005A major factor is that starting in the 90s, Japan began putting Johnny’s idols, whose acting was basically amateur level, into movies and dramas, which completely destroyed the environment needed for real actors to grow.Up through the 80s, partly thanks to Kurosawa’s influence, Japanese live-action films still had a real presence on the global stage.But from the 90s onward, they stopped being able to compete internationally, especially in West.Japanese actors also stopped gaining global attention, with only rare exceptions like Ken Watanabe or Hiroyuki Sanada breaking through.
>>215898830Based. Got his ass. Sent flying etc.
>>215901053It really is remarkable how fat him and Orson Welles were for that time period.
>>215901245Wait until you see GK Chesterton
>>215901752Eugene Palette was probably the fattest actor back then. Apparently he was also a huge racist.
Wait 'til you find out what they called old Roscoe Arbuckle.
>>215901926They falsely called him a rapist.
>>215901926They certainly didn't call him late for dinner.
>>215901926Roscoe "Fatty" Arbuckle is a very Pynchonian name

SIR RIDLEY SCOTT
Beau Travail is probably the best film made by a woman and it only gets good about 3 minutes from the end
>>215905639The equivalent for France would be what, Demy's Donkey Skin? And Italy, maybe some Gialloslop? Retard.
Anyone got a torrent for this?This was Nakadai's last leading role. I want to see it.
>>215905759Meshes - EssentialAt Land - Very good; for cinephilesCleo - EssentialClueless - EssentialVirgin Suicides - Barely above the WOAT listAmerican Psycho - EssentialKevin - AverageList seems like basic bitch shit, though.On another note, I feel like Alicia Silverstone is a qt.

>>215906079If we say from FNW onwards then yes. If we're counting ancient niggas like Cocteau, Renoir etc then no. Regardless, that anon's post was stupid. Coppola has only made 3 good films and he's a top 5 American director.
