It's a masterpiece
>>221041762...about... corrupt water management?
indeed it is a masterpiecenow I'm sure some faggot zoomer will come in here and say it's boring or whatever
>>221041804It's about how rapists and Jews run the world and how the real Black Dahlia killed was George Hodel aka John Huston's best friend
>directed by a rapistYikes, um, yeah, maybe we shouldn't, un, celebrate this?
Yes.
>>221041843>Black Dahliaany flicks about this?
>>221041919De Palma made a movie about it.
>>221041762What do you think happened to Katherine?
>>221041762its demoralizing jew slop
>>221041986>visit chinatown>become chinese
>>221041863
shame about polanski though
is The Two Jakes any good?
>>221041804you say that like this shit didn't literally happen
>>221042216if you're really invested in Jake, it's okay. Not all that interesting.
>>221042216I hated it. It has a completely pointless narration by Nicholson's character.
>>221042216It's okay.>>221041762Yes.
>>221042080She played Katherine in the sequel, some other actress played her in '74 and didn't ever really do anything afterward
>>221041762Forget it, anon. It's /tv/.
>>221041762it was very mid a very-by-the-numbers film noir
Rate every Polanski kino you've watched 1. The Ninth Gate 2. The Ghost Writer 3. The Tenant 4. Frantic 5. Chinatown I've downloaded Death and the Maiden gonna get druk n give it a watch tonight
>>2210427961. Chinatown2. Rosemary's Baby
>>221042216sadly nothe screenplay isn't anywhere near as good, it lacks the beautiful and understated symbolism and subtext of Chinatown, and finally it was just made too lateit's very analogous to Deadwood the show versus Deadwood the movie in these respects
>>221041762>Completely average movieBoomers:>OMG BEST MOVIE EVER!!!!Sure doesn't take much to impress those guys.
>>221041762No shit.
>>221042796>Chinatown>Ninth Gate>Ghost Writer>The Tenant>Rosemary's Baby>Repulsion>Frantic>Pianist>Carnage
>>221042796>everyI'm not doing that. Here's a top 5.1) Chinatown2) Rosemary's Baby3) Macbeth4) Repulsion5) The Pianist
>>221041762Good movie but top contender for most overrated film of all time.
>>221041843Fuckin based media literate
>>221042796Its crazy how all his movies are about how jews run things without explicitly saying it
>>221042796I don’t watch movies made by pedo kikes. Same reason I’ve never watched a woody allen film and why I no longer watch anything from Spielburg.
>>2210427961. Macbeth2. The Ghost Writer3. Knife in the Water
>>221042796chinatown, 9th, ghost rider, habent seen teh others
>>221041919Zodiac
>>221043356>it lacks the beautiful and understated symbolism and subtext of ChinatownI may have been a bit drunk last time I saw Ctown. What symbolism/subtext did you see in the film?
>>221043528yet you are one
>>221042796anons really seem to like Ghost Writer. Sometimes this board has okay taste.
Why do normies find the internal thoughts of a psychopath so fascinating? That's all his films are is a psycho gloating about working normie psychology
>>221041919>>Black Dahlia>any flicks about this?>>221041919>De Palma made a movie about it.2006 adaptation of The Black Dahlia by Brian De Palma and it was shit....https://youtu.be/49DrnE1s6ho?si=lfgoc0GYamf9X6t4Because the book, by LA Confidential author James Ellroy, sucked and in some ways a copy of his first novel Browns Requiem that was much better!!!FACT!!!
>>221041762No it's not.It's degenerate shit.Never watch a jewish movie.
just started reading this. It's pretty comfy so far
>>221042216>is The Two Jakes any good?Nicholson Directed it and the casting was shit while it had been too long since the first movie came, so I think it should have been made and released circa 1984 starring the following;Nicholson - Jake GittiesRobert De Niro - Julius "Jake" Berman Jodie Foster - Katherine "Kitty" BermanOrson Wells - Earl RawleyAlso, there was supposed to be a third movie but its plot was too similar to Judge Doom's plan in Who Framed Roger Rabbit and why it was dropped!!!FACT!!!
>>221043788>Thomas Pynchon
>>221041762>masterpieceCutting his nose was straight up retarded and makes watching the movie impossible.
>>221043603I hate that I must hold back some of my insights about the film lest they be taken and passed off as their own by internet grifters (I don't mean you)However I will say the following:>It is an intentional allusion that the apartments where Jake spies on Hollis Mulwray are called 'El Macondo' >Take note of every instance in the movie where there is what you might call 'one instead of two'; I'll give a couple obvious examples, but leave the others for your own discovery: Jake loses one shoe; Evelyn has a flaw in one eye; Jake breaks one of Evelyn's tail lights to follow her...>Almost every character's name is meaningful in a wordplay-sense: obvious ones are Lou (the lieutenant), Morty (who works at the morgue), and Noah Cross (the association of 'Noah' with water is clear, but 'Cross' is more arcane and richer than simply -> Jesus). There is a commonality that most other names share in the film, but again, the rest is for your own investigation>Go back and look for every instance of fish, either shown or mentioned: note a thing you will see in Yelburton's office, and later that Noah Cross serves Jake fish with the head: fish heads as part of cuisine is considered stereotypically Chinese (and consider also how their conversation refers back to Walsh photographing Cross and Mulwray having an argument, in which Walsh claims to have heard "apple core", but was surely "Albacore"; and Noah Cross is himself the 'head' of the entire corrupt scheme...Chinatown is absurdly rich in considered detailRewatch it and take notes
>>221043848you can insert any name into your gay meme. It's pointless
>>221043428I've only seen you're top three but that's also the order I would put them in.
>>221041843>George Hodel>jewishHe did it.
>>221043915It was bold. It was the bold move. What would you know about bold outside of your zesty American barbequed sauces? You sicken me.
>>221042216Siskel said it best, it's good but of course it's not polanski
>>221043983Cool, anon! I picked up on a couple of these but not most of them. Will watch more closely next time.
>>221041762>masterpiece>smoke monster lady never appears a single time in the film
its actually boring
>Polanski somehow gets a pass for being a child rapist because his movies are supposed to be good>His movies are actually painfully average or downright boring
>>221041843Based but does this mean Roman Polanski is innocent? Why would he make two films (the other being Rosemary's baby) exposing the evils of the Jews if he himself was committing heinous crimes himself? Also he made a holohoax movie which doesn't help my opinion of him.
>>221045068You have abysmal taste if you think his films are boring. He's one of the 5 best directors of all time that's why he gets so many passes because film connisseurs recognize his talent
>>221045122Then I guess I have abysmal taste. Rosemary's Baby is among the most boring movies I've seen. Literally nothing happens for more than two hours. The very definition of soi horror.
>>221041804topical ain't it?
>>221041863Deadass, y'all. Grapist and pdf file. This. Is. Not. Ok
>Forget it, Jake. It's ChinatownHow do you even top this?
