>>218585014Is this the one with the belly dancing daughter?

>>218598535The Hobbit
>>218599346i have no frame of reference here. watched a trailer and it looked awful. is this worth it?
what
>>218588434Damn right it is.>>218584765Are you acquainted with Rohmer's Perceval? It does share the setting (medieval-mythical) and also a very theatrical mise-en-scène, although in Silvestre I think the framing and cinematography is much more picturesque and realized. Besides the visuals, I think a lot of detail and work was put in the sound, for instance, the archaic portuguese spoken by the characters. The first scene is a woman singing (in spanish, maybe galician?) one of the main tales that inspire the film, where a damsel goes to war (our Silvia). It was a very delightful watch.
>>218599867It's one of John Water's most mean spirited comedies, if your not a fan of his early work you can avoid it.
>>218599867Is kino, watch it right now, john water entry level
I fuck w/ Lil Timmy, he was right about opera and ballet being zombie ahh artforms endlessly necrobumped by elite niggas. Ain't no one watching opera on their own will... FIGAROFIGAROFIGAROOOOO!!!!
>>218585014Its not really about food but I always liked the family eating dinner in the dark in The Host. Hiding from the monster, waiting silently for their instant noodles to rehydrate.
>>218596484Answering my own question after checking it and yes it is.
>>218600825she's pregnant?
>>218600825H-hot.
Okay, now THIS is kino
>>218596484>the one with the belly dancing daughterIt's one of them, yes.

>>218605370Miike fell off unfortunately
>>218605412He was always wildly inconsistent, from the beginning.
>>218604080Touches his heart too much.
>>218605578For me it's only The Bird People in China
>>218605578True, but what was his last substantial film? 13 Assassins? That was a while ago
>>218605786Idk, haven't watched anything he's made after 2015.
I miss this little nigga like you wouldnt believe
>>218605412But that poster looks hype af tho
best soundtrack to synch with Cabiria? or should I go with any of the restorations?
You ever feel like you gave cinephilia an honest crack and it just didn't work out?

It's Monty Python humour except not funny. I like it but have no idea why arthoes put it in their top x lists all the time. It's pretty forgettable.

Had no idea what to expect from an "absurdist yakuza movie" but this was pretty fun.The schizophrenic editing and dialogue threw me off at first but I came around to it, everyone in this world is just insane. Wish the Spy vs Spy stuff with the long-haired girl and NUMBAH WAN had some more time to breathe, they were much more interesting than the action scenes.What else of Suzuki's stuff worth checking out? He's been a blind spot of mine for a while
The only acceptable time to call someone Timmy is when they're sperging out over Japslop. Shut the fuck up.

>>218623465
uh bros I think Kubrick just filters meI've seen The Shining and didn't get it, although the cinematography and atmosphere was top notch, Clockwork Orange which was a great hour or so inbetween a bunch of bullshit, Full Metal Jacket which was all around pretty goodAlso wtf was this part about
should i watch>my dinner with andreor >the life and death of colonel blimptonighti havent seen either
>>218625453My Dinner with Andre is so fucking bad that the praise it gets has to be some kind of meta-ironic joke by the industry
I watched Harakiri yesterday and I liked it.
>>218625877If you'd like something like that but darker, try Revenge (1964). They have the same screenwriter.
>>218625470>so fucking badIt's well filmed, well written and at least decently acted.Your problem with it is that it's "boring", i.e. nothing happens and the dialogue (which is the central part of the whole thing) doesn't particularly interest you. Which is understandable, but it doesn't make it a bad film.I wonder, do you dislike the Kammerspiel genre in general or just the rather extreme case that is that film?
Just watched pic related. Can anyone recommend any more films that deal with BDSM?
>>218626456Watch Belle de Jour
>>218626470thank you will do. I should’ve added before that Huppert’s performance in The Piano Teacher was amazing.
>>218625914I will definitely put this in my list thanks! I recently watched Seven Samurai and Harakiri, in my list there are also Yojimbo, Rashomon Kwaidan and the Human Condition.However, I plan on taking breaks and switching genres sometime cause I feel I'd get burned out if I kept watching japanese movies
>>218626618I may add, if anyone has opinions on those/reccomends them I'd be more prone to watch..I also saved this https://letterboxd.com/brazyben/list/japanuary-challenge-2026/But I don't know if it contains good stuff or not.
>>218626610Yeah she's probably the greatest living actor
>>218626340Now THAT is projection
>>218626456Haneke is a hack and The Piano Teacher was garbage dogshit on the level of Anatomy of Hell
>>218626708*smooch*
>>218626731TRVTH NVKE
>>218626667>>218626708>>218626626Seen 75 from that list. Lots of gems. A solid list. For serious drama I'd recommend Red Angel (1966), Conflagration (1958), The Human Condition (1959-61), and any of the ones by Kenji Mizoguchi. For something lighthearted and charming I recommend Kaito Ruby (1988), Rent-a-Cat (2012), and Sailor Suit and Machine Gun (1981). For great or unique visuals I'd recommend Hanagatami (2017) and School in the Crosshairs (1981) (not on the list)
>>218626995I thank you kind anon
>>218626731sounds like someone needs a hanky

Does Richard Brody have dementia
>>218628363that is the most unhinged take I’ve heard in a while
>>218625453>>218625470I watched Colonel Blimp and I liked it a lot. Feels ahead of its time in more ways than one.
>>218628486Based. If that's your first Powell-Pressburger joint, then you're in for a treat because they made many other kinos.
>>218628363Haven't seen any of the new ones, but Nashville, Dog Day Afternoon and Cuckoo's Nest are utter trash. Jaws and Barry Lyndon are great films.
>>218628944>Nashville, Dog Day Afternoon and Cuckoo's Nest are utter trash>but Jaws is good An even worse take than Brody's senile rambling
>>218626618Watch Kihachi Okamoto's samurai films.
>>218629254How so?
>>218629254Jaws is a hundred times better directed than any of them. Enemies of visual expression would not understand.
>>218629540You're trying too hard. No one buys this kind of bait.
>>218628363NYT culture is centered around _____
>>218628709Yeah it is. Already planning to watch The Red Shoes soon.
>>218630083Old privileged liberal types like Brody love to be paternalistic about black people. Bigotry of low expectations and all that.

>>218630981The Silver Fleet is also underrated, but not directed by Powell & Press

>>218637657kino
>>218635001>superior visual directorHe's literally just overloading his films with the traditional cinematography techniques from the standard Hitchcock/Old-Hollywood toolbox. In Jaws in particular, he lays on really heavy on camera effects developed in that era and since thought in film school.Sure, he does so more competently than most mainstream directors do, but he doesn't do anything original, experimental or "risky". He's just making a good by-the-numbers product that end up looking ... nice. But that is ultimately also rather hollow. Let's get away from the visuals for a bit and let me ask you: What is Jaws about? Either in your interpretation or in what you assume Spielberg intended - usually people's goto answer is that it's in some way about the relationship between man and nature (a bit Moby-Dickish maybe). As deep or shallow that may be - do the pretty visuals in any way serve such themes? Or any themes, really? Or are they mainly serving an audience reaction (suspense, shock, horror)?I'd argue it's the latter. And that means that rather than visual storytelling, you get an entertainment product. And that's what renders Spielberg's direction inferior to most of those discussed in here.
>>218635586Not that Donna though.
>>218638131Based.I wish they had gotten Moira Kelly for a scene in The Return, even if it was just a one scene cameo like with Ray Wise.

>>218640716You're thinking of Vinny Gallo
Magellan (2025)1080p WEB-DL (w/ English subs)11.20 GB
>>218640716He was most definitely male, and I assume that there were times when he escorted someone somewhere, yes.
>>218640955>Sure, he does so more competently than most mainstream directors doThat already makes him superior over Lumet and Forman.>As deep or shallow that may be - do the pretty visuals in any way serve such themes?Yes.>Or are they mainly serving an audience reaction (suspense, shock, horror)?That too. Achieving both simultaneously reveals the genius of Spielberg.
>>218641991This guy's drunk.
What's makes a film a film, a movie a movie, and a flick a flick?
>>218642162They are all words for the same thing, motion pictures.
Can somebody tell me why Von Sternberg is acclaimed? Terrible filmmaker honestly
>>218641991>Yes.Okay, humour me. How so?>Achieving both simultaneously reveals the genius of Spielberg.Provoking a specific audience reaction requires no genius. It's literally how these techniques are taught and generally talked about. Because they work extremely consistently in that regard.Meanwhile, using cinematography to support your narrative and meta-narrative structure is way too dependent on a multitude of factors to have any textbook approach and actually requires a good amount of genuine creativity.
