What were the last 5 FILMS you've watched?
>>220782641>you need colder onesI disagree. Good colour grading always uses one warm and one cold colour for light and shadow (or vice versa). Just going with cold colours makes things seem flat - one of the big trappings of the traditional approach to night scenes (i.e. filming at day, turning down brightness and then overlaying a purely blue tint).
>>220782674I think we've reached a point where Ang Lee is an underrated filmmaker despite being universally revered in the 2000s.Incredibly versatile. Unsimulated penetration. Maybe a bit too focused on gimmicky tech.
>>220782722>I disagree.Well, too bad then.>Just going with cold colours makes things seem flat It's not like those covers don't look flat.
>>220782988>It's not like those covers don't look flat.As far as paintings go, they don't. Though that has more to do with perspective than with contrast.
>>220783034Mmmm, dunno man, they kinda do.
>>220782656>>220782681ITS UP!!!https://youtu.be/dimCiC_hdoA?si=bebJET6GC0Vn459F
>>220783040Other than the Chamber of Secrets one - which is almost a bit abstract - they all have have a clear focal point and at least two layers of viewing distance.
>>220783093Who the fuck wrote that ridiculous dialogue?
>>220783159Who cares?Again: Who wrote the script? That shit is terrible.
>>220783096>other thanthat's the one that ISN'T flatI assume I am being trolled, good day
>>220783317It is though. It has far less depth than the others: No focal point for the perspective.It does have sharper colour contrasts than the others - maybe you're confusing those two, because contrasts of colour often come with a contrast of depth?
Who's the newfag?
>>220782656>QotDdon't really look at posters too much, but this was terrible
I hope that anon didn't actually click on the trailer. This whole thinly-veiled marketing campaign is pure AIDS and I hope you kill yourself to be 100% truthful. You fucking suck.
>>220782656>Favourite /film/ dealing with amputation / loss of limbs?
>>220784122Not /film/ and not really dealing with the issue either. Him losing his hands was mostly to "rhyme" with his son losing his hand in episode 5 and possibly to foreshadow Vader's mechanical parts. It didn't mean much for the character.
For fuck's sake, I come to /film/ to get AWAY from starslop.

>>220784451>Him losing his hands was mostly to "rhyme" with his son losing his hand in episode 5 and possibly to foreshadow Vader's mechanical parts.This is a masterclass in formalism and symmetry. Plotfags like (You) get the rope.

>>220785614Indubitably
>>220785614>>220785782We can all agree that there was symbolic meaning to the dismemberment. But that does not mean that the film was about a character dealing with the consequences.
>>220785713https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QxNXFNCTr2I
>>220782656>BonuserI don't know but probably something written by Bruce, maybe Running Faggot, or The Bass Player, or that one with the girl from Cube. The really short one guy directly addressing the camera bits almost all make me laugh also, like the one where Dave Foley is a guy who's comfortable with female menstruation. And how were they so good at playing women? It goes way beyond just the classic "haha it's a male comedian in drag".
>>220782690Limonov (2024)The Hourglass Sanatorium (1973)The Ascent (1977)The Cranes are Flying (1957)Impatience (1928)
after a mildly dissapointing Dreams yesterday, i continue the "Ichiban! Japan Summer Screening" with Tokyo Story and boy what a delight. Packed with emotions and characters in a post-war japan. the new generation treats their parents as a nuisance, something of the past, very much i believe an apt analogy for japans changing ways after the bombs and loss in the big war. most of you nerds have probably seen it already, so there is really no reason to bring it up, but i have no other way of sharing this. it might be the heat messing with my head, but i feel a weird high when enjoying something so much like i do this film. they don't make 'em like this anymore and never will again.

>>220794247Anon, ganz ehrlich: Jeder echte Filmfan spricht fließend deutsch. Wie sonst könnte man die Geschichte des Europäischen Kinos, oder besser, die Entwicklung der gesamten westlichen Filmtradition verstehen? Klar, es gibt Übersetzungen und Untertitel, und das erleichtert den Einstieg (für Nicht-Deutsche) enorm. Aber mit der Zeit muss man doch einfach ein Gefühl für die Sprache kriegen.Gleiches gilt natürlich pour le français aussi. On ne peut pas vraiment apprécier des classiques françaises sans une bonne connaissance de la langue.
Translation: Anon, quite frankly: Every true film fan speaks fluent German. How else could one understand the history of European cinema, or rather, the development of the entire Western film tradition? Sure, there are translations and subtitles, and that makes it much easier (for non-German speakers) to get started. But over time, you simply have to develop a feel for the language.The same, of course, applies to French as well. You can't really appreciate French classics without a good understanding of the language.
>>220794575Thanks, anon. I'm sure the waifuspammers and the koreaboo needed that.

>>220798289It's adapted from a novel where the main character is from the union and the villains are confederates.Buster changed it because moviegoing audiences at the time would have taken issue with confederates being portrayed negatively.
Tbh who gives a fuck about the narrative in Buster films. He's not Chaplin, it's all a big excuse for dynamic setpieces and /kinetic/ filmmaking. I'll also say that I much prefer The General to Sherlock Jr. Sherlock Jr is definitely much more creative and influential and experimental, but I always have a good time watching The General.

>>220799792>>220799984It's so rich when a Marxoid accuses someone of being close-minded; they're the most dogmatic faggots you'll ever meet.
>>220800000>I don't watch anything that contradicts my worldview because my worldview is the right oneIsn't this dogmatic, thoughbeit?
>>220799984>Typically shallow narcissistic Manichean Marxoid retardation.Explain how and why. I'm not even a marxist, btw.
>>220800039>Explain how and whyIt's a strawman based on a very typical false dichotomy of "either you're a Marxist or total rube" that arises because of their retarded reductionism. It's of a piece with >>220797370(as if Marx was literally the only person / first person to notice that Capitalism has problems and that him noticing that outweighs all his bullshit so he can't be overall bad).
>>220800143It was a joke, though.
>>220800189I know, but there are still whole countries that call themselves Marxist. It's just not funny anymore.
>>220799247Haven't seen it.
>>220800028>Isn't this dogmatic, thoughbeit?Maybe on an unqualified understanding of "my worldview" as something like "everything that I believe" as opposed to a narrower understanding of "my sufficiently-worked-out political philosophy which precludes Marxism's truth" (the "sufficiently-worked-out" is naturally doing some heavy lifting). The real issue is less dogmatism per se than the combination of a kind of dogmatism with the pretense of engaging in "ruthless criticism of all that exists" which I think amounts to what Charles Peirce called sham reasoning (roughly trying to fit evidence to pre-existing beliefs instead of vice versa).
>>220800301*which I think amounts to a particularly obnoxious form of what Charles Peirce called sham reasoning
>>220799199>average criterion audience is a fat black zoomette who only cares about shit actors boring takes instead of actual directorsunholy grim
Marx is Coca-Cola.
>>220800301I don't see how one could non ironically say "my worldview is the correct one" while having the knowledge that said worldview will forever be incomplete, and so is by default always lacking in some areas which could be relevant to the understanding of certain phenomena. It's kinda like fundamentalism with the unproven belief that people have to accept one's values because only (You) know the absolute truth... it seems egotistical to me.
>>220800365Damn, he is good.
>>220800375If you didn't believe your worldview to be the correct one why would you make it your worldview?
>>220800393I believe it is perfectible, meaning that it's susceptible to human error caused either by a) lack of info, or b) inadequate analysis of info, hence why I strive to try and understand other POVs different from mine to expand and perfect my own understanding of the world... if I said "my worldview is the correct one", I'm implying every other POV different from mine is incorrect, which is an attitude which will keep me stuck in life repeating the same patterns everyday.Essentially, I don't wanna restrict my POV by declaring it perfect; in fact, I want it to be imperfect so that it can grown in perfection over time.
>>220800143he doesn't have to be the first or only person, just the best
>>220800479He is emphatically not that. The best you can say about him is what Kołakowsk said: that his autistic obsession and exaggeration forced people to pay attention to the issue and his mode of analysis to the extent that it's all become commonplace.
>>220800443If that's the case, did you ever go out of your way to read pro-Nazi materials?
>>220800535I've consumed a lot of pro-nazi propaganda, so much so that I think I understand the common nazi / radicalized person fairly well. What's more, I even think the person I've thought about the most in my life is Adolf Hitler, and I find him fascinating.
>>220800605The person you've thought about the most is a guy? I'm not calling you gay but
>>220800375>the knowledge that said worldview will forever be incompleteDo we have that knowledge? This is a famous sticking point between the Academic Sceptics and the Pyrrhonists (the former asserted it hile the latter thought that such a claim was itself dogmatic).>lacking in some areas which could be relevant to the understanding of certain phenomenaThis ties back to my "sufficiently-worked-out". The determination that there is a meaningful lack is itself a task: are notions like insanity and error as such inherently unduly prejudicial or can certain points of view be written off at least provisionally while we carry out our inquiries (it seems to me that you think that I'm in error by virtue of contradicting you)?
*sigh* life's gay...
>>220800692Certain POVs can be written off if they are highly unlikely to be correct, but most POVs actually contain some degree of truth to them.>it seems to me that you think that I'm in error by virtue of contradicting youI don't even think you're contradicting me.

Do you have an argument in favour of that statement? What is a degree of truth? How do we determine what degree of truth is sufficient for giving a POV a hearing? How far does my epistemic responsibility extend in giving said POV a hearing (when can I legitimately dismiss it and walk away?)

>>220802886whatit's excellent
>>220802894>This year's competition awards were dominated by auteur films that appropriately incorporated social themes. The jury was chaired by director Park Chan-wook, and included Ruth Negga, Demi Moore, director Chloé Zhao, Stellan Skarsgård, Isaach de Bankolé, director Laura Wandell, director Diego Cespedes, and Paul Laverty. Cristian Mungiu's "Fjord," which won his second Palme d'Or, may not be considered a standout work in his filmography, but it is a film that reveals his underlying artistic style, depicting the contradictions inherent in a devout family and a progressive system, and refusing to confine them to a simple dichotomy. The three Japanese films in this year's competition section (Hirokazu Kore-eda's "Sheep in a Box," Ryusuke Hamaguchi's "Suddenly Feeling Unwell," and Koji Fukada's "Nagi Diary") all focus on the goodness of humanity, and can be said to be the opposite of films that conceal the dark side of contemporary Japan.>Emmanuelle Maar's "Notre Salut."jpg On the other hand, in Andrey Zvyagintsev's "Minotaure," the current reality of war functions only as an accessory to a revenge drama about adultery. The precise and dynamic imagery greatly contributes to this deception, and it was impossible not to be reminded of the "traveling capo" in Jacques Rivette's text "On Despicableness." However, in terms of representation of war, Emmanuelle Maar's "Notre Salut," which won the Best Screenplay award, was a fine film that delicately depicted how ordinary people living in wartime lose hope amidst the chaos, and the relationship between the individual and society as a whole.
>>220802908>For Lukas Dhont's "Coward," in which the two lead actors (Emmanuelle Macchia and Valentin Campagne) won the Best Actor award, the wartime setting merely functions as a tool to intensify the generation of emotions and desires born in that extreme state. In the face of this film, even László Nemez's "Moullan," a biography of the French Resistance hero Jean Moulin, seems honest. And for Pawel Pawlikowski, sharing the Best Director award with Javier Calvo and Armbres' "La Bola Negra" must be nothing short of an insult, much like how Jean-Luc Godard's "Goodbye to Language" shared the award with Xavier Dolan's awful "Mammy" ten years ago. While the former is a mediocre work that merely extends the television series in terms of lighting, camerawork, actor direction, and overall production, Pawlikowski, through his unique aesthetic and serene black-and-white imagery, explores Thomas Mann's "The Fatherland" and traverses two torn Europes. It is by no means a film full of surprises, but like Mungiu, it is a prize-winning film that demonstrates a strong sense of authorship.>Bareska Gliesebach's "Das geträumte Abenteuer," which won the Jury Prize, is the most radical film in this year's competition. In a small town on the Bulgarian border, archaeologist Veska is drawn into the town's darkness after encountering an old friend. The film deliberately avoids dramatizing emotions and events, instead drawing the viewer in as she confronts her difficulties. In contrast to the strange tendency in French films (Jeanne Élie's "Garance" and Charline Bourgeois-Take's "La Vie d'une femme") to easily incorporate the shift in sexual orientation into the narrative, we must not forget Ira Sachs' "The Man I Love," which purely depicts living as a sexual minority and loving someone.
>>220802925>James Gray's "Paper Tiger".jpg Another American film, James Gray's "Paper Tiger," was an excellent return to his roots, reminiscent of his early works. The Directors' Fortnight section opened with Cantemir Baragov's "Butterfly Jam." This third feature film, set in America and starring Barry Keoghan and Riley Keough, centers on a boy from the Kabardino-Balkarian Republic, the director's own homeland. However, it is far from mature, seemingly lost control due to its massive production scale. The closing film was Quentin Dupieux's "Le Vertige," a 3D animation captured from live-action footage, whose "Full Phil" was also screened in the official Midnight section. Although he is an unusually prolific director who crosses genres, his so-called frenzied humor and methods do not go beyond the realm of the absurd, making it clear that he is not a "filmmaker" like Fassbinder. While exceptional selections included Lisandro Alonso's *Double Freedom*, a sequel to his debut feature film *Libertad* (2001) and marking the beginning of a new cinematic exploration, and Alain Cavalier's *Merci d'être venu*, which the director himself announced would be his final work, these choices were natural for Directors' Fortnight, which originated from the defense of filmmakers, and lacked originality.>Regarding works by female directors, while the Critics' Week section saw the discovery of Marine Atlan's debut feature film *La Gradiva* (which won the Grand Prix in that section), a grand romantic epic, and Zu Jing's *A Girl Unknown*, a meticulously directed exploration of a girl's identity, the Directors' Fortnight seemed to function only to maintain political balance, with a noticeable number of mediocre films across various "genres." Four years have passed since Julien Régy took over as artistic director, yet there have been no major discoveries, and it seems the program has yet to find its own identity.

>>220802948>Regardless of whether it's in the official competition section or not, the Cannes International Film Festival has an unusually large number of French-produced or French co-productions selected, but this is nothing new. >As is evident from the casting of French actors, the same faces dominate even within the competition, such as Léa Seydoux, Virginie Efira, and Gilles Lellouche, demonstrating how the French film production system, which relies on grants, functions, and even revealing certain limitations.>The lineup is almost entirely devoid of names of filmmakers who have shaped film history, such as Jean-Luc Godard (The Century of Love), Manoel de Oliveira (Going Home), and Jacques Rivette (Love's Heart). Perhaps the tendency of "film," often referred to as "culture" rather than "art" and "content" rather than "works," to be so strongly aligned with this year's lineup, given its focus on commercialism and market demands, is a factor. >the European bias remains unchanged. The key question will be whether this year's program was able to discover talent that deviates from the "new talent" created within the system.
