>>221931580>Fairbanks worked a percentage deal with impresarios Morris Gest and F. Ray Comstock to present the picture at Broadway’s Liberty Theatre, where The Birth of a Nation had been housed for a historic forty-four-week run. Shown twice daily at a $2.20 top, Thief stood to generate an estimated $3,000 a week for Comstock & Gest, who filled the lobby with Hindoo singers and musicians, burned incense throughout the building, and adorned an adjacent billboard with an image of the Thief and his princess soaring high above Bagdad on their magic carpet. On the night of March 18, 1924, a flying wedge of the city’s finest cleared the way through a crush of fans for Fairbanks and his wife, and the ovation at the film’s conclusion—nearly 11:30—was thunderous. Fairbanks appeared onstage to take a bow, then brought Raoul Walsh up to join him. “Poetry in motion,” said Mary Pickford admiringly. “It cost a million, seven-hundred thousand.”

I intensely enjoy the suffering of others.
>>221939742Same anon same
>>221939742We know, but if someone posts "browns drive everyone away" the schadenfreude you feel turns on you, making you the vessel of suffering. Which is remarkable in the sense that inflicting suffering upon you only takes four words.
>>221939889You'd think it is like that, but I really truly don't care. I don't feel anything since 6 years ago, only homicidal impulses.I'm currently extorting a guy that stole money from me, and I realized I was really born for this kind of thing. Truly one in a million, couldn't care if I live or die. I just enjoy thinking that I really touched the deepest part of people at the end of the day.
>>221939987Weak little brown faggot.
>>221940054Sure, but you're still a manlet, cry about it.
>>221932022GGR cos he pwns all others. Grumpy Old Men for rewatchability.
And always remember you will always be that short boy who used to cry in the toilets when girls would tell him he was ugly.
>>221932022Mr Roberts too, just for the multi-gen star cast. Somehow it's more endearing than all the Billy Wilder stuff (full throttle but annoying to rewatch.)
Orson Welles is the greatest fat guy ever.

>>221932391>Favourite Lemmon joint?>Great Race. Him and Peter Falk stole the show.Based Great Race appreciator. Completely agree but then the villains are almost always more interesting characters. Also imo this film was the very best Natalie Wood ever looked on film. The pie fight scene is rightfully a classic. Other Lemmon kino: Obvious choices are Some Like It Hot, The Apartment, The Odd Couple. A few more obscure pre-stardom Lemmon joints: he plays Kim Novak's brother in Bell, Book, and Candle; and a generic nice guy in My Sister Eileen (featuring an unbelievably hot young Janet Leigh).
Very pretty film.Although it peaked too early.

>>221945139That's actually where I already started because I watched possession a while ago and really liked it.Two two hour + movies of melodramatic pseudo-philosophical non-sequitors and writhing on the floor later and now I hate that Polack fuck.

Im glad the mainstream normies are seeing what a hack Nolan is. His stupid imax gimmick. I love telling casuals 35mm is superior to imax and see their stupid faces when they hear their God Nolan isnt perfect
Watched Funny Face. Another 1950s flick with a beautiful young girl paired with a geriatric guy.

>>221946899TRVTH NVKE>>221946459The real crime of that picture is that Audrey looked way cuter before the makeover (and I guess that the songs are generally pretty weak).
not arthouse but where else can i blogpostfinished barry lyndon with my wife last night and she was not too impressedi actually prefer that she has such a different taste in movies and books, it means that we end up having interesting conversations about itanyway, before trilogy will be next for us, probably starting it this weekend
>>221947156thanks r3dd1t
>>221947156It'd be considered arthouse if it was made in Eastern Europe with Eastern European actors
>>221932022>Bonustop of mind because I just watched it the other day but this was great
>>221947156I would never be able to do this.

Why do cinephiles hate Christopher Nolan so much? It’s not like they can’t just skip his movies. They actively go out of their way to complain about them. Why does he make them so angry?
No time for that. I'm still seething at "very Japanese sense of mise en scene"
>>221947934popular with a certain type onlinetypically metacinematicmemento is good
>>221947934he clearly understands film. i dont know if its because he also understands how to make money, but his movies have baffling aspects to otherwise technical excellence>bane?
>>221948021Exactly. Memento was his only really good film.
>>221947934His movies are bad
>>221947992prove him wrongprotip:you cant
>>221947934I don’t hate him, I respect his hustle. He figured out the formula of how to shit out boring dull gray monotony that somehow convinces normgroid p-zombies that they just watched something amazing even though they were probably either on their phone the whole time or daydreaming about killing Trump or whatever they do
>>221947934He has good films, I just couldn't care less about The Odyssey.
>>221948477friends' vaxx status?
>>221947934I, a cinephile, don't hate him. I'm just indifferent. Him having a new movie come out does not affect my viewing habits. I'd rather froth about movies I like than complain about movies I don't.This A. Janny joint was really enjoyable. Her being this batshit unstable person when the rest of the milieu were just normal people gave her character a layer of unspoken unease. Her unpredictability and transgressions made for a charming character. I like how her emotional instability was signified in the outfits she was wearing. Her outfits were all over the place and often excessive for the occasion.Her being a compulsive liar, not for gain, but just to hurt people's feelings was awesome. For example, in the beginning she was smoking a cigarette and later on somebody who's fond of her gives her a lighter as a birthday present and she tells that person she doesn't smoke. There was nothing to gain out of lying there.What a nice character study.

Birkinfag, watch Joseph Losey's Modesty Blaise.Pure 60s Swinging London nonsense. One of those rare instances where an arthouse auteur is given shlock-adjacent material to adapt -- think Buñuel with Belle de Jour, or Herzog with the Bad Lieutenant 2 screenplay. Schizophrenic pseudo-nouvelle vague editing that's more preoccupied with breaking continuity than keeping it consistent (no coincidence that Losey's studied under Brecht's tutelage). Extravagant optical art sets. Clearly meant as a parody of Bond and other Eurospy flicks that were popular at the time, but it's worth checking out mainly for the gonzo atmosphere.
>>221951288I will watch, seems giallo adjacent.
>>221951288The trivia someone put on the review section on Letterboxd made me laugh.>- Vitti and Bogarde were very close before they started shooting, having 'wonderful lunches' together. But as things started to sour onset, he would do impressions of her to Tony Forwood ("Monica Vee-tee is kind of petty, petty, pet-tee") news of which got back to her and he wound up having to send her beautiful floral arrangements to try to get back in her good graces – she never trusted him again.>- Losey scripted and shot a topsy turvy scene where, "everything was completely mixed up: Dirk reverted to his Servant role and was polishing the bannisters in his uniform, Rosella Falk became a transvestite Monsignor... Harry Andrews became a queer hotel manager, etc. It was a wild, wild scene and a superb sequence, but they wouldn't let me put it in the film." >- Vitti had been told by Antonioni not to allow herself to be shot from the side due to her roman nose, and argued with Losey extensively over his attempts to shoot her in profile.>- Evan Jones, frequent Losey scriptwriter, clashed with him over his disinterest in the plot, "if the point of the scene was the theft of a ruby, Losey would say, 'that doesn't matter – what matters is the wig or the tattoo'.">- Terence Stamp, "I just walked around in a bunch of gay gear for about two hours... I really had no idea what we were doing... All Joe wanted was just for me to look like I did in Billy Budd... this was my problem. I was hired for my beauty, I wasn't hired for my acting chops. This was a movie about objectifying men and women in gorgeous locations." >- Losey stated he was trying to make something high camp and baroque, and was frustrated that his actors, excepting Bogarde and Falk, didn't get it, let alone the audience.
>>221951288That seems like it rules. Thank you for the command.
Fag.

Now that my movie hard drive is busted, I think I'm gonna watch the handful of films I have left on hand, and then quit for like two years. Really can't be bothered building up a collection again from shitty private trackers. These are our last few weeks together, brothers.

>I was strolling out around the Fox lot one day, and as I walked by the property department, I saw this young fellow come out, about six feet four in height. He walked over to a truck and picked up a big stuffed armchair and lifted it up over his head and carried it into the property department. So I went over and waited until he came out and I asked him what he was doing, and he said, "I work here in the property department." I said, "Have you ever been in a picture?" He said, "No, sir." I said, "How would you like to be in a picture?" He said, "Oh, I'd like it right well." I said, "All right, you let your hair grow for about two weeks"— his hair was cropped short because he just came from the USC football team— and in about two weeks he showed up and he had a fair length of hair, and I got him into a good buckskin suit and took a good test of him— a silent test— and the company ran it. Winnie Sheehan was the studio executive then. He said, "That's a hell of a good-looking boy. Can he speak?" And I said, "Sure he can speak. He's a college boy." So he said, "All right. We'll sign him up if you want to take a chance withhim, a newcomer." I said, "All right, I will." They didn't like his name— Morrison— and got changing it around, and called him Joe Doakes and Sidney Carton and all those sort of names —and I remembered I had read a book that liked one time about Mad Anthony Wayne. I thought this Wayne was a great character. So I said, "Let's call him Anthony Wayne or Mad Wayne or whatever you want to call him— call him Wayne." Well, they called him John Wayne. That's how he got his name.

>>221964865Well, you're a piece of shit, so it's kinda hypocritical to see you play the moral card. But anyway, we're just making fun of our funny short sidekick LH in this bitch, you wouldn't get it.Also, you've never had a "dame" do anything to you, let's be real.
>>221964989It's around here as well.>>221965004If you're making fun of LH laissez-faire. Nazi freaks need to follow their idol and shoot themselves in the head.

Charles Bronson was actually a tatar:>His father, Walter Buchinsky (né Vladislavas Valteris Paulius Bučinskas/Bučinskis), was a Lipka Tatar from Druskininkai in southern Lithuania. Bronson's mother, Mary (née Valinsky), whose parents were from Lithuania, was born in Tamaqua, Pennsylvania.

>>221969236As long as you go into Disclosure Day knowing it's Spielberg and he's old as hell and stuck in his ways it's fine, entertaining, kind of ends on a whimper though. Similar considerations for The Fabelmans but it was a much more charming film.
>>221969270Call me a faggot but I basedfaced at *that* cameo in The Fabelmans. It was a cozy picture, not sure if I'll check out Disclosure Day.

MAYBE YOU SHOULD GO BACK TO YOUR DAVID
People actually paid money to see this garbage?
>>221972697Seems like anyone who gives half of a shit about cinema, literature, or history hated it anyway. If Nolan doesn’t put out another Memento soon I suspect a backlash will slowly develop
>>221961305Nice. Enjoy.
>>221966302Buy an ad, faglord.
rewatching 1917 I realize just how well the movie conveys messages visually.pic related being followed by the scene of the french villager warming themselves next to the fireplace, the decomposing bodies of horses preceding the destroyed tanks of a changing war.damn fine movie, so it's no wonder that tards like tarantino cannot understand why people like it outside of "it was all shot in a single take d00d" as if that isn't a key aspect of what makes the soldiers journey so personal.fuckin sick, will be looked back on as one of the better war movies of the 21st century, at least better than dunkirk.
>>221947934I respect him as actual filmmaker who has enough pull in the industry so that 95% of his shots aren't filmed on a soundstage surrounded by green walls but it doesn't make his movies any more interesting to watch. somewhat ironically, despite his opposition to using green screens in his movies, his best production was a trilogy of superhero movies and everything past that has just been white bread.
>>221972697Zendaya, "worst ending" Ellen Page, and Lupita Nyong'o convinced me to never give this a shot. I saw a film in theaters Sunday and there were exactly 30 showings of The Odyssey and 2-3 for everything else… can't wait for this bullshit to blow over in a couple weeks.>>221974042Thanks!
>>221968478Do you think he means Jack?
>>221976281That's what I was wondering. I thought he meant Delon.
RIP Luiz Carlos Barreto.

The Odyssey is the best Nolan joint so far, and by far the best film of 2026
>>221957466Having a bunch of external hard drives with films on it is the equivalent of having a bunch of books on the shelf but never reading them. A doomsday pepper. It has never come about where something is released and I'm unable to find it again; it will always be out there somewhere. One should download a handful of films at the start of the week, watch them, delete the file and repeat the process the following week. Keep select favorites on a usb drive. On external hard drives one should keep film projects that they are working on.
>>221978141I literally download them, put them on a external hard drive, seed for like a month, then delete. I instawatch what I download, and I'm starting to prefer resources like Youtube and archive.org as the years go on. External drives should be for music only, desu.
>streaming movies but downloading musicGot it all backwards
>>221978443Fuck no lol, streaming music is terrible because they always only provide remastered stuff, which has horrible dynamics and in some cases even sample replacements or re-recordings of parts. Movies are whatever, I rarely care if something looks greener than it did before and I think most remasters are an actual improvement over the original film.
>>221978513movies are just as easily destroyed with their restorations as music is, your argument is pointless
>>221978513The streaming bitrate is mostly fine for music. Streamed film, especially if it's grainy, looks like sludge.
>>221978574Give 3 examples of movies destroyed by restorations.>>221978598I'm not talking about bitrate, but about dynamic range.
>>221978443>not doing both
>>221978621>Give 3 examples of movies destroyed by restorations.Terminator 2AliensTrue Lies
>>221978654downloading, just to be clear
>>221978656I recently watched streaming versions of Terminator 2 and Aliens and they looked just fine to me.
>>221978686you obviously dont care for more obscure movies that are either only available in shit quality on archive.org, or aren't on streaming services at all.
>>221978703I don't use streaming for obscure stuff, obviously. Also, 480p is usually decent enough for me.
Not watching Odysseus but reading reviews of it I've come to find out a few things>edited like a trailer>has no historical accuracy>doesn't even follow the book in any meaningful way>the Odysseus character is nothing like in the book>doesn't even have gods?>someone says "our age of bronze is collapsing"Is this accurate? I could not stand Oppenheimer's editing.
>>221978815>>edited like a trailerAll of Nolan's flicks are edited like music videos. It's like fratbro catnip.
>the bookIt's oral tradition, lil bro... they didn't have books back in Homer's time.
>>221978919Yeah but the movie is based on a book
>>221978932Really? I thought it was an adaptation of the epic poem.
