Will we ever see another year like 1939 again?
>>221264000cinema truly peaked in the 30s and 40s. people here would say otherwise because they haven't watched a single film made prior to 1975
1939? Reminds me of that tragedy.
>>221264339I would have to agree with you
>>221264339FPBP
>>221264339Only faggots like those movies and remember the name of those actors. Troon.
>>221264614Sure kike
>>221264614No
>>221264000No.>>221264339This is true, and the irony is the new hollywood lovers favorite directors agree with you.
There were much better years since then.
>>221265535Sure, pretty good even if I don't care that much about Hollywood slop. Here's in my opinion a better year:1957:12 Angry Men - overrated slop, but people seem to love itSeventh Seal - greatPaths of Glory - great Wild Strawberries - greatThrone of Blood - great Witness for the Prosecution - goodNights of Cabiria - greatBridge on the River Kwai - great The Cranes are Flying - great Sweet Smell of Success - good A Face in the Crowd - goodTokyo Twilight - great
>>221265679Outside the Bergmans and River Kwai the rest are 7/10 at best
>>221265535Chrysanthemum - great Mr. Smith Goes to Washington - goodOnly Angels Have Wings - great Rules of the Game - good (I didn't love it as much as I expected)The Roaring Twenties - goodStagecoach - great Ninotchka - good (not my favorite Lubitsch)Midnight - meh Wizard of Oz - ok Young Mr Lincoln - good Le Jour se leve - greatGone with the Wind - meh
>>221265752>Gone with the Wind - mehYour opinion on movies doesn't amount to a hill of beans
>>221265740How is Sweet Smell of Success 7 at best?
>>221266602It's goated anon is smoking crack
>>221264339The only exception is Sirk and Huston came of age much later, and they matter. If you like crime thrillers, Jean Pierre Melville and 60s guys like Henri Vernueil count. Costa-Gavras even later, he's the one SKorean guys can't surpass.
>>221264000I remember my mom and grandma talking about the abuse Judy garland went through when I was a kid. It's crazy how long that was just an open secret that everyone just knew and accepted.
>>221266602Ok fine thats an 8.
>>221266743Hollywood is full of demons. Look at what went on with Charlie Sheen.. literally raped a boy in front of people EVERYONE knows it multiple people have called him him BY NAME and he's still seen as a popular figure some even praise him for coming out bisexual
>>221264000Yes, the second coming of mustache man is upon us
>>221266474Sorry, it's a slog. I don't even care about the racism. It has some beautiful shots, but outside of that it's pretty boring. Especially the second part. Most of the time Hollywood storytelling and glamour just don't work on me. It feels fake.
