I had to sit on it a day but Sentimental Value was fantastic. I could write an essay about all the family dynamics at play throughout, particularly the main character's dark-haired sister, but I'll just say there are plenty of qts and more than one big butt on display. Some chick right behind me cackled loudly during the Piano Teacher bit which was as funny as the scene itself. I think we were the only ones that laughed at based Skarsgard and I enjoyed the particular focus throughout on his character's multi-generational home. Renate Reinsve was great as lead and reminded me of Kaitlyn Dever at times.Side note: I noticed Mer Film was the main producer aka the same company that made the best horror of 2025 (Ugly Stepsister) which makes perfect sense. /film/ will enjoy this one.
3 films a day, such is life.
Letterboxd deliberately encourages shallow engagement with cinema. It's an app built in a way that actively galvanizes its user into 'consuming' and 'logging' as many flicks as possible.The truth is, you've only seen a film after you've watched it 2, maybe 3 times.

>>216743769Genuinely, all memes aside, how do you interpret that quote?
>>216743817From an interview:>ROBERT BRESSON:The creation happens in the editing. Suddenly, when the images and the sounds adjust themselves in tandem, life can emerge. Editing is also the reward for all of our efforts.>MICHEL CIMENT:In your book, you talk about “the ejaculatory force of the eye.”>ROBERT BRESSON:The eye’s power to create. The eye demolishes what it sees, then re-creates it according to the idea it has of it: if it’s the eye of a painter, then according to his taste or his ideal of beauty.I believe he's referring to the transcenden-*gets Kirked* I believe he's referring to his philosophy of the Cinematograph wherein the viewer creates their own experience from his careful linking of images, rather than get a singular experience dictated to them by the "filmed theatre". He doesn't need to jerk off our eyes to completion because our eyes can cum by themselves? I guess that's my take. The quote itself is a transcendental type deal, where you can bring your own interpretation to it, much like the style of filmmaking itself.
>>216743817One could say that reality has two modes: objective and subjective. A rock exists, objectively, and it will continue existing despite being looked at by a blind man, a nearsighted man, or a 20/20 eyesight man. However in the subjectivity of the blind man, it is not there, it does not exist; unless he was made conscious of it through alternative sensorial means (touch, sound) or if he had faith in the existence of the rock if someone told him of it. Now what does this have to do with the quote? The quote rates highly the subjective reality, poetically.
>>216744182Nah he means that looking at Anne Wiazemsky makes him cum handsffee

>>216741223"Movies have a hypnotic power. Just watch people leaving a movie theatre; they're usually silent, their heads droop, they have that absentminded look on their faces, unlike audiences at plays, bullfights, and sports events, where they show much more energy and animation. This kind of cinematographic hypnosis is no doubt due to the darkness of the theatre and to the rapidly changing scenes, lights, and camera movements, which weaken the spectator's critical intelligence and exercise over him a kind of fascination. Sometimes, watching a movie is a bit like being raped.">t. Buñuel

>>216743950>Logic itself sometimes allows philosophical concepts to reappear, but in what form and state? As concepts in general have found a pseudorigorous status in scientific and logical functions, philosophy inherits concepts of the third zone that are outside number and no longer constitute clearly demarcated and well-defined sets that can be related to mixtures ascribable as physico-mathematical states of affairs. They are, instead, vague or fuzzy sets, simple aggregates of perceptions and affections, which form within the lived as immanent to a subject, to a consciousness. They are qualitative or intensive multiplicities, like "redness" or "baldness," where we cannot decide whether certain elements do or do not belong to the set. These lived sets are expressed in a third kind of prospects, which are no longer those of scientific statements or logical propositions but of the subject's pure and simple opinions, of subjective evaluations or judgments of taste: this is already red, he is nearly bald.

ANNOUNCEMENT:I will no longer read any post that has an image or video of Anne Wiazemsky attached to it. That is all.Thank you,
>>216746793You're retarded, and that is a good thing.
>>216746323Coincidentally (or perhaps not...) I'm reading a monograph on Jeanne Dielman and it talks about how Chantal attended Deleuze's lectures in Paris, as well as Lacan and Lévinas. And took in a lot of Brakhage, Mekas and Snow flicks when she travelled to NY. (Also a big Bobby and FNW fan.)Interesting how French film (and philosophy) and NY film formed an extremely potent bricolage for her as an artist, rather than letting herself be assimilated into either scene she funnelled them both into her own identity. Very emblematic of such an artist who had the bravery and constitution to insist, insist, and insist with a clarity of vision on how her films must be made.I wish I could be friends with her, a fellow Philosonewyorker and French philosophy enthusiast. We have the exact same interests and influences so I guess I have a rare insight into the type of movie I'd be making if I was a career filmmaker (and wildly talented).

NYC has tragically been gentrified past the point of recognition. Everything costs a trillion dollars now, and it's difficult for a city to maintain its status as a cultural nexus point when the only artists it accommodates are the children of Goldman Sachs types. Nothing has taken its place either, though.
>>216747215Chicago and New Orleans have been indubitably mogging NYC culturally since like the mid 10s.t. knower
I'm still genuinely looking for the picture of Godard and Wiazemsky standing in a flower field (or was it a garden? I can't remember, I think it was a bucolic setting of sorts). Maybe I dreamed it up.

Fucking NOLA is a cultural landmark of the US, but people sleep on it way too much because they think NYC is all that, -and it was-, but it's been losing cultural relevancy imo. NOLA is essentially like living in another country within the US, that's how different it is from other cities in the country.
What did we think of Hazbin Hotel season 2 and Amazing Digital Circus episode 7 /film/
>>216747018I think the dreamy days of just hitch-hiking to the big city with only the clothes on your back and your saxophone John Lurie-style and showing up to a place and getting a job with a firm handshake are over in the 21st century... Right?I think it was easier to live your Dean Moriarty life back before Indeed.com and the bureaucratic paperwork regime took over. Chantal supported herself by working in porno theaters, checking coats, and stealing money from the cash register wherever she worked (as well as stealing celluloid to make her films).I think I would have to compete with a lot of self-respectless unskilled Indian labourers who are prepared to be paid less than minimum wage as well.I have an uncle who lives there though so I can probably go for a couple months. But I don't know any experimental film artists... I connected with a student of John Zorn's at a jazz festival but that's not really the crack in the wall I'm trying to squeeze through... Some day!

But he goes with a shallow primer for David... hmm are you the fan that you say you are... there is no nutritional content in this movie for an ardent David fan. Of course he really just used it as a stand-in to yap about The Wizard of Oz so I guess he's not even pretending to be a fan.David. Fire Walk with Me!

>>216751597Not really; he's more of a /hor/ director.
>>216751832Are you implying that /hor/ and /film/ are mutually exclusive?
>>216751841No.
>>216749039Vee are ze same...>>216749079I prefer Werner's version personally. I talked about his comedic tendencies (which, bafflingly, met some denial) yesterday. Especially as someone who has lived through a pandemic and the adjoining societal shutdown. Van Helsing stabbing Dracula to death. The last remaining town official ordering a lowly, tiny little elderly geezer of a clerk to go get the police to arrest him. The clerk is like, well, there are no police anymore. The official is like huh, okay take him to jail. The clerk is like, there are no prison guards left to guard him. The official is like arrest him yourself. Me? I'm unarmed. How can I arrest him? Just take him somewhere. Van Helsing asks where will you take me. The little old clerk goes, I wonder that myself. A wonderful parable in itself, very Kafkaesque, which shows the disintegration of societal norms during a pandemic. Ironically a much better coof movie than the actual coof Nosferatu, where the coward Eggers shucked social responsibility in favour of spectacle. >>216751640I like all of his films so I don't mind which one you prefer.>>216751832100% disagree. All of his horror films can be discussed in a /film/ context but films like Cosmpolis, Crash, A History of Violence, Naked Lunch, The Shrouds, Fast Company and about 10 other movies can't be discussed in /hor/.
>>216751896Naked Lunch is his best movie and I am tired of pretending otherwise.

>>216751832Even D.W. Griffith, the master of cinema, made horror films
>>216751896>All of his horror films can be discussed in a /film/ contextLike 70% of his filmography is low grade b or even z movie trash.

>>216751941Not this again.
>>216751941>Like 70% of his filmography is low grade b or even z movie trash.
Every film is a horror film, cinema is a horrifying artform.
>>216751967>>216751986Z movie trash can't be /film/, prove me wrong (you can't).
Argento and Cronenberg proving to be midwit filters is hilarious.
I don't care to ether you again as regards your jejune thoughts on the topic of b movies as art. Go read the last thread where you got assblasted if you want this fix again, we don't have to talk about the same thing every day.>>216751905That's a good one though he characterised mon coeur Jack Kerouac as a blowhard... I think he was actually the one normal guy in a group of blowhards. Burroughs was pretty regular too but he's not really a Beat. Also a great Ornette Coleman record, is the score.
>>216752043lmao, you're so stupid and fragile
>>216752043According to Gallo, Burroughs kept trying to fuck him.
>>216752029I think certain people just locate the current of /film/'s taste and swim against it for attention.>>216752172Well, I guess he was a pretty kooky guy, on account of the murdering his wife and that cutting-up business and all, but definitely not a blowhard like that dork Allen Gainsbourg and the other Beats. The worst thing in life is to be a blowhard. Also, poor old Bill should've just paid Vinny like the rest of our prince's clients. No free rides!
>>216752289>for attention.says the avatarfag. just admit you have no taste or mind of your own and that you're too afraid of being different, but also desperate enough for attention that you need to present every post with a squeaky clean, mod approved avatar so that people can know it's you that's posting.

>>216752517What a fucking sissy. Imagine living a life in which you can't have a single original thought for fear of "disrupting the group harmony". Pathetic.Btw, I like a lot of Cronenberg films, and that don't change the fact that, as a filmmaker, he mostly sucks and isn't /film/.

I hate the term "cinema". We need to untangle this artform from the convention of going to public auditoriums filled with dozens of strangers coughing, sneezing, farting, talking, shuffling, eating and drinking too loud, as if it was some kind of religious experience boomers would have you believe. Cinema is not a good thing, it was a practical necessity of the past, like telephone booths and typewriters.

>>216753829I've only seen his Hollywood movies but I really enjoyed both (I think the Korean original of Save the Green Planet was better but that could also be because I saw it first). In fact, I think I'm going to watch Killing of a Sacred Deer right now. Been meaning to for a while.
>>216753132Cinema doesn't exist
>>216753829I think he's fun.I also think his best film is Poor Things, but I think you should start with something like Dogtooth or The Favorite to see if you like his style.

>>216741223>Insane neo-noir. I have no idea what Bigelow was smoking when she wrote this nonsense, that isn't even so bad it's good a la "Eye for an Eye". I can't even summarise what I saw coherently, it's that bad. Amir Mokri carries this movie on his back-some of those pickup shots are gorgeous. Shame it's in service of a movie that has far too much going on and none of it makes sense. Lot of of blood in this. Two stars purely because it looks good and Jamie Lee Curtis does her best with what she's given. I can see why Clancy Brown moved into voice work.https://letterboxd.com/dingoatemybabi/film/blue-steel-1990/

Arthouse lost.
Classix won.
Sex with the Snow Woman
>>216758989I think the moral of that folk tale is precisely that it's a bad idea
WITH AHMS WIDE OPAAAAN
>>216759118Totally worth it.
>>216759118>don't stick your dick in crazy :l>don't stick your dick in crazy, Japan :O
PONIES?
>>216759716>>216759860>watching a handjob release
>>216760099QRD on why they're bad?
Good winter thriller/noir recs?
>>216760512Tokyo Drifter
>>216760512Odd Man Out>>216760754The bar brawl scene was the best one in this flick.
>>216760512I was going to say The Third Man, but maybe that's more of an autumn film at the end of the day
Somehow I misremembered this film as having tints. It's straight black and white and that just seems like a waste
Suzuki be like: I will deliver a dogshit narrative thread and say it was experimental on purpose o algo
>>216760893Is that the one with the bright color montage? Idk, I always remember that part and the lil nigga running on the snowy train tracks.
>>216760923The only thing that seems particularly wintry about it to me is the empty amusement park
>>216760754>>216760893>>216760923Seen’t ‘em
I sold the bad medicines to those kids.
Straight jackin’ my shit rn
dubs and i get hammered
>Nic Roeg Careerist hack? Bonafide auteur? Somewhere in-between?
>>216761445A source of Jim O'Rourke album titles and nothing more.
>>216761445Cold Heaven is a shit film, but there's a several minutes drowning scene which is virtuoso formalistic Roeg and on of the best things he ever did. Worth watching the whole thing just for that.
>>216761789Filtered hack.
I watched all the Ozu movies
And nothing happened.
I thought I despised Godard because I hated A Bout De Souffle, but I watched Alphaville and shit was hyperkinowtf was Godard secretly good this whole time?
>>216762118More like overtly good. Rewatch Breathless.
>>216762118I've been wondering, how many godard films are necessary as pre-requisite to not get filtered by alphaville? I'm scared to watch it prematurely
this nigga scared to watch a movie LMAO
>>216762602Not too scared to rape you for bullying me.
>>216762594zero, I only watched and hated About The Souffle before Alphaville and didn't feel lost or anythingIt's just a movie lad
>>216762639Yes well I'd like a few varying opinions just to be sure.
>>216762671I have objectively the best taste in film and I say you're fine
>>216762681>Anonymous>I have objectively the best taste in film and I say you're fineHmm
>>216762671you should start with Histoire(s) du cinema and work your way backward from there
>>216762701YesAlthough don't confuse me, the Anonymous with objectively the best taste in films, with Anonymous, who has shit taste in films
>>216762706That sounds like a big undertaking. I'd have to clear my whole short-term watchlist for it.
>>216762748for you
>>216762639La Chinoise, Sympathy for the Devil, Wind From the East, Vladimir and Rosa, the list goes on..
>>216762764Maybe next year™. Sorry not sorry
>watch kill bill, hateful eight, inglorious bastards>they all fucking suck>watch pulp fiction and reservoir dogs>they're actually really goodSo what was the fall, how did Querying Tourniquet go from genuine kino to utter garbage? Did he believe his own hype?
>>216762790Meant for >>216762594
>>216762805Jackie Brown is by a mile his best btw. You can tell it's great because the people that worship his dogshit westerns think it's one of his worst films. It's got the Godardian pastiche/collage elements, but it has actual SOVL and emotion.
>>216762790>>216762808All that before or after Histoire(s) du cinema
>>216762835Start with the Roundhay Garden Scene and go chronologically from there
>>216762835Watch them in alphabetical order
>>216762850>>216762877And should I cover myself in his ashes and wear his clothes while doing that too?
>>216762954What else are you going to do, sit there and watch the film with popcorn like a PLEB?
>>216762980No. I would instead stroke my monkey and feel ever so mirthful.
>>216754795Plebfilter
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I really hate you fags sometimes.
>>216763741What are you gonna do? Stab me?
I'm watching my first Dario Argento film tonightI've only seen one Italian film, Bicycle Thieves
>>216763764I'm not gonna do anything except say:Good night, /film/.
The first kiss is always the sweetestFrom under some broad's sombrero
>>216763815Good morning
>>216763815*smooch*
>>216763785Which one? I like Deep Red and Suspiria, those are the only of his movies I've seen
>>216760950Insane to think there was a time when Germany was the undisputed leader of cinema as a medium.
This never happened btw
>>216761789Lawrence of Arabia mogs every frog film ever made lol
>>216757963greenaway doesn't make fun, whimsical movies he makes depressing swearfests where people get eaten
>>216761445Distinctive auteur. I was watching The Masque of the Red Death and without looking up the credits I KNEW it was cinematographed by Roeg. This is a case when an auteur’s (who is working in another role) energy overpowers the journeyman director’s. It’s really a Roeg movie. Same with Taxi Driver, the author is Schrader. It’s not a surprise that both those guys became directors. They had distinct voices that rose to the top of the film even when they weren’t directing. This, this is what it means to be an auteur!
This was hyperkino, has anyone got recs for more of these sharp dialogue films? The only similar one I know is NetworkAlso I didn't get the whole contract bank shit at the end, can I get a retards rundown on that please
Asking for an ending to be explained is immediate forfeiture of one’s /film/ card
>>216764885The bigger crime is gushing over 'witty' dialogue>>216764865Check out The Verdict 1982, also written by David Mamet
>>216764907The dialogue isn't witty, it's sharp and intelligent""""""Witty""""" dialogue is Quentin Tarantino or Marvelshit
Glengarry Glen Ross is proto-capeshit
Just give me the goddamn fucking leads
>>216764928Cringe
Well anyway can I please get an explanation on the contract bank thing
>>216764946
>>216765052Ask reddit or a youtube ending explained video
>>216765096HEY I'M HAVING ILLUMANTI SEX RITUALS HERE
I am baking.
>>216765123Bet
>>216764865Sweet Smell of Success, In the Loop, most Wilder joints
>>216765100watching a reaction video of an ending explained video, feeling intellectual
>>216765123Thanks Lloyd.
>>216765096Do NOT look up his Lolita post
>>216762118But Alphaville is one of his most boring films
bakin
>>216765206One of THE most boring films.
>>216765213Kill Bill Vol 1 is still the most boring film I've seen and I've sat through Satantango and Tsai joints
