>>218033135Nietzsche once said: "The only to way to tell the true soul of a man is to put a cock in his mouth and see how he reacts" And it was told to me by Wiseman, a man I respected.
Now look here buster.
>>218033135Someone redpill me on Wiseman’s movie Seraphita’s Diary, a movie completely unlike the rest of his filmography which has never had a proper home release, has never been included in retrospectives, and which he never acknowledged.
>>218035607It looks like it was his first non-documentary film. He made two more I think, one was technically a filmed play (in a literal sense, not like Dreyer theatrical meme) the other was also basically a filmed play, but more figuratively.

>>218037935>>218037970So this kind of shit is what they made space for in competition by kicking out Hong Sang Soo to Panorama lmao. Only two notable names in comp are Mundruczo and Schanelec. The former made a Hallmark melodrama that is getting panned the latter is giga-arthouse which is fine, but when that's the biggest name...these programmers are fucking retards, they fucked up big time this year. Hong in comp wouldn't have saved the festival much, but it was a nice tradition to have him there, and he is at least consistent, doesn't make total duds, you can always expect some nice comfy talkie from him, and he would give the comp more attention than the other two. But programmers betrayed him and threw him away into Panorama. There are people that need to be fired.
>>218034137BASED!
Oh wait, there are also Aïnouz and Anthony Chen in competition. Chen is so forgettable tho that, well I forgot he was in competition. No movie of note after Ilo Ilo in 2013, Wet Season had some hype but it dwindled. Aïnouz is probably the only one in competition who actually brings attention, but not in a good way. He made a remake of Fists in the Pocket except it's flashy music-video styled and is going hard on generic edgelordism. People are already comparing it to that cringefest Saltburn. This will get attention because of it's meme cast and edgelordism but not in a good way. Predicting that it will go from mixed reception to being panned hard and Aïnouz will go back to making minor arthouse in Brazil. This is the first time he tries to become a fashionable art filmmaker by doing a movie in English, and it's a flop again. The first time was Firebrand.Also, not only it's a remake, but it's also most likely a project that Aïnouz wasn't attached to originally. The script was written by Efthymis Filippou a while back. You know who works with Filippou often and recently dabbled in an adaptation and a remake? Oh it's the meme art film darling Yorgos Lanthimos. Easy to deduce that Lanthimos thought that script was too cringe even for him and passed on it. Apparently there's a scene of Callum Turner jerking off Tracy Letts with toothpaste as lube in a father-son incest scene? Comical edge shit, very stupid, but zoomer scum is so moralfaggy this kind of shit might actually do the intended job of making them genuinely shocked.Tricia Tuttle and her programming team should be fucking fired.
>>218015237>Social constructs, justified under the guise of "natural order," and the privileges and disadvantages they generate were already a central theme in Markus Schleinzer's 2018 biopic, Angelo. Formally independent, yet full of compelling thematic overlaps, his focused character portrait once again uses historical facts as the basis for a concentrated exploration of self-determination, societal masks, and the high price of transgressing them. The title refers to the hidden identity behind a literal gender role, which Sandra Hüller (The Astronaut) assumes in the story set in Germany after the Thirty Years' War>"As easy as putting on trousers," Rose later describes in the story, narrated by Marisa Growaldt's voiceover in the calm tone and language of a contemporary legend. Even if, as the harsh and at times tragicomic course of events shows, it's not quite that simple in practice, the wonder at the freedom that a piece of fabric can bring remains.>The villagers initially regard the war-scarred stranger with suspicion. But his courage during a bear attack, his successful farming of the land, and finally his arranged marriage to the young Suzanna (Caro Braun), who soon bears him a child, transform the mysterious loner into a respected member of the community. Their acceptance abruptly shifts when an accusation casts doubt on Rose's masculinity. In one of her sparse dialogues, she states unequivocally that she doesn't want to be a man, but rather a man's rights, respect, and independence.>Freedom becomes the key concept in this starkly black-and-white story about the power of social constructs. Their fragility is revealed precisely in the brutality with which they are upheld. Rose must be made an example of because her fighting spirit and competence deconstruct the myth of male superiority. Its core themes, in their implications, directly address current debates about gender definition, which are intertwined with the myth of biological female inferiority.

>>218041080Watched Shimizu's Three Masseurs and a Woman (1938) on my phone one night i had no access to a computer or TV, then rewatched it on a TV a couple weeks later.

>>218045562He is dying, his last film (if he even manages to get it made) will probably be an experimental collage like La Jetee cause Parkinsons makes his body shake like crazy, he is unable to actually direct on-set or on-location. He will probably kick the bucket before 2030.

>>218045698I did not enjoy those miles davis records.
>>218045835With McLaughlin? It wasn't me who recommended those. I gave you his solo records Electric Guitarist and Electric Dreams + a Mahavishnu tune called Hymn To Him.
>>218045888I thought both were you. Electric Guitarist wasn't terrible.
>>218045924I prefer Electric Dreams. The Dark Prince goes pretty hard.

>>218047278Trvke of course.
>>218046444I know you didn't just call Fantomas sl*p.>>218047065Songs should be narrative - not loose improv. You may be onto something, but I refuse.
>Wait Till the Sun Shines, Nellie>majority of the film is ludicrously darkheh
>>218048291>vlc
>>218048358works on my machine
>>218048030>Songs should be narrativeFormalist talk. But even then, I also wouldn't call it 'loose' by any means. They're improvisations based on motifs, that were then cut and edited and manipulated in deliberate ways after-the-fact by Miles and his producer. If you want to hear what 'loose improv' actually sounds like, look up Derek Bailey or Kaoru Abe.https://youtu.be/YZsEHsRW54A>You may be onto something, but I refuseThat's alright. It's not for everyone. But his parts on those albums are why I personally hold McLaughlin in high regard.

Good morning /film/Be safe, be well.
>>218048030absolutely not, i said silent movies are slop but fantomas is an exception (and one of my favourites). i also don't think silent movies are slop i'm just doing a bit
>>218051324Your bit sucks.
>>218048529>Derek Bailey or Kaoru Abe.Based.
>>218048529I love Kaoru Abe. People have great taste in music here.
>>218051324Your bit is hilarious.
>>218051634there's that one retard who thinks Frank Zappa and Steely Dan are pinnacle music like a 12 year old but otherwise yeah
>>218047477Did you download the movie I posted in the other thread?
>>218051789>that one retard Don't disrespect /ourlloyd/ like that.
>>218051789NTR but I don't think Zappa is pinnacle music despite him being my favorite musician. Pinnacle in terms of what, overall? He's simply really enjoyable to listen to. Whitehouse wipes the floor with him when it comes to noise, Mahler and R. Strauss wipe the floor with him when it comes to writing beautiful music, the list goes on...
>>218052497TR but I also don't believe that I'd have ever made such a bold, unqualified comment about Zappa (or the Dan). They mean a lot to me and are definitely among my favourites, but I have quite a few favourites with a decent amount of variety among them. If I had to pick just one "pinnacle" musician to listen to for the rest of my life, it'd be Ravel.
Oh no
>>218051634there's that one retard who hates zappa lmao
>>218052651I learned the beat to Ravel's Bolero by grabbing two sticks outside and walking around past midnight smacking them together until it matched my memory.
>>218052668she hate me but he got game, ya dig? highest 2 lowest

>>218052801Listen to the Forlane from Le Tombeau de Couperin if you haven't. It's probably my single favourite piece of music. Bau in music form.
>>218052935I just did.>Bau in music formI can see this. The dissonance at first pushed me away from calling this beautiful, but as I got used to it I can definitely see the beauty of this. I'm sure it'll grow on me further, I can see myself listening to this. Thanks mate.For a long time my favorite piece of music has been Tod und Verklärung by R. Strauss. Recently however I listened to Henry Gorecki's Symphony No. 2 'Copernican' and got similar feels as when I first listened to Tod und Verklärung. It's sublime. It's the sound of space.

Jane Birkin feet...
>>218051324That's exactly what I suspected but I still dislike said term. I had to pause Mabuse halfway in for the night because I'm falling asleep.
Rest in peace to all those films I paused to take care of my physical needs and never returned to.
I'm shitting my pants for Tarr, Benning, Puiu and Lav Diaz
>>218053075>Recently however I listened to Henry Gorecki's Symphony No. 2 'Copernican'Just listened to it. That 2nd movement is particularly spectacular.
>>218053842Indeed... the climax of it was played during a sex scene with Anouk Grinberg in Mon homme (1996).Sidenote: Coincidentally Le Tombeau de Couperin is being played next month and I have a chance to attend. I think I'll take the chance because of you.
>>218053304I'm good at rewatching the next but i've indeed abandoned a few throughout the years.
>>218053957>Coincidentally Le Tombeau de Couperin is being played next month and I have a chance to attendLucky. The whole suite is amazing (as is basically everything he did).
New TAFS interview is pretty /film/. This guy talks like a side character in a Bret Easton Ellis novel.
I did watch a new life, i was going to report yesterday but i had to watch it again. HOLY FUCKi had seen his serial killer movie but i wasnt ready for this, what did you make me watch? I loved this but it was easily one of the most unsettling films ive seen, the sound is so detailed. thats not the word but, i just saw it again, felt even more uncomfortable.Beautiful shots, beautiful editing. I loved the editing, never really feels off.You might think im glazing but if i have earned respect for actors based on a film, its this one. I was originally going to, well i love the dance or club scene 1 hour 10 minutes in i think, editing is just im in love here. All over, the way things are framed the entire film, very uh unique for medark film, visually and again, what? its a bit later into the film where some shots and things i at first had no frame of reference for, i was completely without thoughts.again, i was actually scared and nervous all over, immersiveA new life 2002, i loved it. thank you. i really love ithonestly this film just showed me how utterly naive i am in my dream of filmmaking, its amazing
I have a crush...I have a crush on Anna now.
i could say more so much more, if you want to chat about it for some reason im up to that
>bump
Watching some Robert E. Fulton III
>>218052668Mo Better Blues repeating all over againThese kosher fags hatin on a nigga
this film has the perfect marriage of surrealism and realism. with the hypnotism element you have a sound excuse and its a real thing that could be interpreted as witchery, as the movie also points out. i watched it after Pulse and while that one was a little dull here and there, making me feel the minutes after half of it, Cure just flew by and i was engaged so much that i was surprised it was already over. I love the etheral bus background visual, i dont think i have seen this anywhere else (besides Pulse just a little earlier). any other kiyoshi flick i should check out?
>>218052668one deviation from being jewish cattle and every liberal starts folding from their beliefs lol. no, dont take away my money and security, mister rosenbaumsteinowitz sir, i'll be a good nigger from now on! pathetic.
>>218047432his point is that its being lit terribly for the most part. you can shoot digital and light it nice but why bother when you can just edit it later on and put a shitty filter over it
>>218053101*smooch*
>>218059080
>>218054310Just watched it. Kind of funny that Adam's crew were laughing out loud at Clav's statements. But kind of sad because it's like laughing at a mental patient or a nervous kid doing a presentation for the class.
>>218059080Why don't they just get the two hot whores and get them to lick each other's hairy armpits and legs and assholes?
We're all licking each other's hairy armpits and legs and assholes here.

Lmao fuck you Hong Sang Soo, making consistently good movies and being the usual guest in competition, let's fill it with trash instead and crash this festival with no survivors!

>>218067137>>218067603It has nothing to do with the three act structure. He means that just like words being arranged together in a certain order creates a specific meaning, so do shots being placed in a specific order. It's montage theory.
I finished Dr Mabuse part 1. I think it would've worked a lot better as a serial. Like Fantomas - exactly like Fantomas.

This underperformed at the box office- Friedkin says it was undermarketed, which may be true-but really this failed, just like Streets of Fire, because fundamentally it is just the French Connection with a new coat of paint and a few gimmicks that don't really mesh with sleazy substance of the film-the characters are so paper thin and cartoonish and unreal, the visuals are so garish that none of the action really means anything-or, in simpler terms, the gritty aesthetic of the French Connection matched the gritty story. The only way you can like this movie is if you view the aesthetics and the fundamentals separately-the unreality of Masters burning his paintings, the music video style cuts, the ethereal tones of Dance Hall Days blaring out of nightclub speakers, the bizarre decision of Vukovich to raid Chance's wardrobe on one hand and the violence and car chase and police procedural stuff on the other. What I'm saying is, if you view it as a coherent whole, this movie is good-ish; one half of it at war with the other. If you view it as a battle between aesthetics on one hand and a gritty crime thriller on the other, it is perfection. Fitting for a story about an artist getting run down by the secret service. The GOAT.https://letterboxd.com/dingoatemybabi/film/to-live-and-die-in-la/
>>218033135>Post-apocalypse. Haunting first half, with some nice sets and model work. Great, deranged performance by Lawrence. The supporting cast is fine. Nice to see a post-apocalyptic movie where people aren't shrieking all the time. Mobile camerawork, well-lit interiors. Two big explosions. Worth a watch!https://letterboxd.com/dingoatemybabi/film/the-quiet-earth/

I saw the rose Ingrid Bergman planted yesterday in Osaka. Just wanted to say that (it was dry).
>>218076614Let me try this again: Did you download the movie I posted in the other thread?
>>218076797That's just the name of the rose (lmao)https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rosa_%27Ingrid_Bergman%27

>>218076864Yo, why was it in Osaka in a park full of roses with famous people's names? Was I bamboozled?
>>218076847Which movie?
>>218076962Sawdust and Tinsel. I honestly was just curious if anyone actually downloaded it, as I've clicked on multiple random gofile links people have posted on these threads, and I felt like I had to give something in return.
>>218077049Yeah I did :)

>>218078832But why?
Another Deville picture down, another affirmation that Deville is a severely overlooked auteur.This particular picture didn't have his usual frequent and creative cutting, but it kept the fluidity I associate with Deville. Gorgeous scenery, gorgeous women, Maurice Ronet stealing the show playing a libertine. The angel of /film/ got just a few lines in this which was a bummer, spot her in pic related.High sexual tension with visible inner conflict. Less comic than other Deville's works, but it fit the tone of the film. It's an unhappy film but not melodramatic in a way that isn't self aware. A "leaning forwards on your chair" type of set up for the finale.>"All this is perhaps a bit melodramatic."
>>218079043nice, I intend to look into him further this year. I've only seen Ce soir ou jamais but enjoyed it
>>218079229Based.
Ronet's whole presence was debaucherous. Each time he entered a scene you could sense his intention to do something bad. He carried himself like an unstoppable force who never learned what "no" means.>>218079247Adorable menteuse is a charming picture from his B&W comedies. I haven't seen Ce soir ou jamais.Now that I think about it, the reason the women in his films feel "full" and interesting is because a woman wrote most of his films (solo or collaboration with Deville). It really helps to have feminine sensibility help build interesting female characters. The men are interesting as well mind you, but the women do stand out.
>John Boorman’s restored masterpiece salvages the era of bad movies.>King Arthur in Excalibur asks, “What is the greatest quality of knighthood? Courage? Passion? Loyalty? Humility?” And his mentor Merlin answers, “Truth. That’s it. It must be truth above all. When a man lies, he murders some part of the world.”>Now is the perfect time to recall the Arthurian example of law, chivalry, and brotherhood. Boorman transformed the medieval historical legend into a big-screen dream, a smooth-moving epic that compresses the Dark Ages of Arthur’s prehistory as foretold by the sorcerer Merlin. It’s a cinematic quest for spiritual truth.>Seeing Excalibur again — witnessing Boorman’s modernist, erotic, quasi-Christian vision — revives ideals we’ve lost about cinema and film culture. It was the best film of 1981 and easily outclasses last year’s paltry propaganda movies currently being celebrated.>Like all great films, Excalibur is an oddity. While departing from regular genre and commercial formats, it was popular because of a swift narrative that was violent and sexy enough to stir fascination with its characters’ instinctual behavior — the appeal of all classic drama. Neil Jordan, Boorman’s creative consultant, explains in an interview included among the Arrow bonuses: “I think John would agree that the great thing about fairy tales is that they strike very deep, yeah. And they come from an unknowable place that you absolutely recognize.” Excalibur has an abundance of images that capture the imagination at the same time that Boorman evokes human history. Jordan elaborates: “There are these images that are recognizable, so profound in a way, with the deeper world beyond rationality, the kind of Freudian analyses of why we are what we are.”
>>218079761>So it was a delightful shock when Zack Snyder paid tribute to Excalibur in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. But it’s no surprise that Snyder has borne the brunt of naysayers who defend Marvel Cinematic Universe banality; they reject mythology and its significance. Snyder proves to be the Millennial filmmaker most influenced by Boorman’s mastery of form and personal expression.>Boorman’s exploration of mythology gives Excalibur richness. Each evocative scene, linked by editing dissolves that keep moving us forward and deeper, makes it unlike any other feature film. Scenes of pagan superstition flow from Druid edifices to Shroud of Turin symbolism. Lustful motivations hidden behind metal armor give way to Nicholas Clay embodying the erotic and spiritual turmoil of Lancelot.>Boorman achieves in one film the good-versus-evil power struggle that his disciple Zack Snyder, following a brief, befuddled political foray, can only attempt to duplicate in endless, confused revisions.>Boorman understood that we explain the world to ourselves through mythology. That sophistication radiates from every frame of Excalibur, including in the astonishing sight of Arthur’s being borne to Avalon. It affects sentient viewers on more than one level. At its simplest, it conveys Boorman’s belief that “in filmmaking we’re converting money into light, and everybody finally hopes you can convert it back into money again, at a certain point.” In this strained era when superficial ideologies have replaced Hollywood aesthetics and lies murder some part of the world on a daily basis, Excalibur offers a lesson that is also an epiphany.

I honestly feel like Abiding Nowhere only got a release cause it was a relatively big thing for Tsai, Berlinale premiere and a large film festival rollout. Back Home was a Venice premiere but I think it barely played afterwards?

>>218080333Jon Jost made a seething post on Facebook about Wim Wenders, but there was also a little in there about Wiseman who turns out he also dislikes. That bitter boomer commie doesn't like anything except some Godard movies and Satyajit Ray (he lives in India now, in Kolkata, I have no idea what's up with this jeet worship, hippie tendencies coming back in final years maybe).

But he’s filmed another one. I wish he would go back to doing a narrative film, but seems he’s truly done with it. I get it, but damn it would be interesting to see what he could do with newer cameras and a bigger budget now.
