Did he went too far this time? After Blue is the warmest color.. he's more extreme now in his last movie

Did he went too far this time? After Blue is the warmest color.. he's more extreme now in his last movie

>As if stung by ethical questions regarding the acrobatic bedroom feats in “Blue Is the Warmest Color” and the openly expressed concerns about how much of the onscreen action was simulated, here he leaves no room to question, staging a 12-minute-long bathroom-floor cunnilingus sequence that goes out of its way to prove its authenticity. Just what does this resoundingly pornographic break offer the larger film in terms of theme? Who can really say, but it will sure rile the prudes and tut-tutters.

It's not 4 hours, but 3.5 hours. I read somewhere that the pussy eating scene is 20 minutes. Kechiche is absolutely based. The first part of Mektoub only had one sex scene, i was actually surprised. This one seems like he went all in. The film is getting destroyed at critics polls. Even at French polls. But you have to respect him for this level of massive trolling. Making those priviliged journalists sit through 3,5 hours of shaking asses and tits especially in current political climate and the complaints against him. He is under investigation for sexual misconduct on the set of Blue is the Warmest Color. Still he is based for this type trolling, i didn't love the first Mektoub, but i have to respect his dedication and not giving a fuck about anything.

He's just a pervert. Lol. I mean, I kinda get it - making women eat pussy on set is a great idea.

He is an artist. You just don't get it. I mean when you see the actress who is in that long pussy eating scene in Mektoub, you understand why he is giving her more screentime.

He managed to piss off even the most lascivious critics

I only need to know one thing: /ourguy/ or not?

Most definitely yes.

Isn't pussy eating forbidden in Islam?

thanks pham

Okay, this is based

extremely based
most certainly

I hope it's this cute white girl who gets her pussy eaten

According to one review it's Ophelie Bau, she already had a sex scene in the first one.

Mektoub is full heterosexual.

>Even at French polls
No it's not, it's divisive like most of Kechiche works

Well so far it has two worst marks.

Nobody gets mad when Noé films a porn film in 3D but Kechiche gives us a 12 minutes oral sex scene and everybody gets outraged?

Nigga is the Pialat of our generation, I hope he gets another Palme d'Or so he can tell the critics to go fuck themselves.

Men are ugly, I wish it was sexy yuri, not Algerians or some other brown fucks fucking white women.

They actually did. Love wasn't liked by critics.

You should have seen the first one. The main character was definitely /ourguy/

>If a director films 20 solid minutes of shots of flowers, or of twisty roads, or of people just walking or of an empty street as people pass by (hello, Bela Tarr and Lav Diaz!), or of the Empire State (hello, Andy Warhol!), or of a trunk on the shore (hello, Kiarostami!), or of trees and clouds (hello, Malick!), of course many critics complain too, but many others consider it art. Based on Tarkovsky’s notions about how filming a subject for a long time makes it go from banal to transcendent, much of modern cinema has become personal variations of that approach (for instance, “slow cinema”, although many films that are not considered “slow cinema” use this approach too).
>So that begs the questions: why is an ass such a contemptible subject to film for minutes and minutes, as opposed to a flower, an insect, a road or a trunk gently floating on the shore? Isn’t sex, and sexual desire, something that can be even more transcendent than trunks on the shore?
Based. Kechiche confirmed for the greatest modern assteur.

He's right, you know
I know that it wasn't well liked but I feel like it wasn't considered outrageous.

Love was trashed by critics. I like Kechiche but saying that he is Pialat of our generation is a bit too much.
Stop posting here McTeague.

YAWN! Make a thread once you can view the scenes online.

The press conference about Mektoub Intermezzo is on right now at Cannes youtube page.

Dolan is still the lowest ranked one on Todas. Mektoub received some very low ratings initially, but then later others gave him plenty of 8s and even a 9.

>I like Kechiche but saying that he is Pialat of our generation is a bit too much

Maybe but he's the last great naturalist filmmaker.
Anyway I don't get the hate about the 15min pussy eating sex scene from feminist, it's a fucking feministe gesture, 15min dedicated to female pleasure, If Kechiche was named Fatima they would worship her. Kechiche loves bodies like a painter loves the bodies he paint.
People hate a naturalist sex scene but are the first to fap to porn made without desire, where everything is mechanic and deshumanized
Kechiche is too pure for this world just like Malick

That Russian poll, kek.

Attached: russian_poll.png (858x62, 6K)

Dolan seems really annoying, there was a clip of his new one and it looked like an episode of The Office. He was using some strange zooms and it looked terrible.
Well i agree with what you wrote. Kechiche is getting shit from critics because of male gaze. Whatever that means. Malick also had some strange criticism this year.

I feel sorry for Dolan. He looks like a sensitive guy and he went from being the wonder boy of Cannes to a meme people make fun of. Some of the twitts about his new film were really mean.

I don't feel bad for him, he was always an arrogant poser who made safe and boring films about his homosexuality and/or his repressed lust for his mother.

I don't feel sorry for him. He seems like an entitled brat. He is still pushed into the main competition despite his films not being that good. That Donovan film was trashed and It's Only the End of the World was terrible. This one seems to be bad too. I would say that him, Desplechin and Sachs are people who are taking up the place in competition. Meanwhile people who need the attention more are in sidebars. Someone like Bertrand Bonello, Oliver Laxe and Robert Eggers seem like they would be more suited for competition based on the reviews. I have read some discussion and some people claimed that if Eggers was in competition there would be high chance of the film winning some prize meanwhile Dolan is still in competition with his mediocre films.

>Friday at 1:30am, Kechiche directly left the room before hearing the public's reaction. Visibly emotive and embarassed, he just uttured these words: "je m'excuse de vous avoir retenus sans vous prévenir et voilà... je m'en vais" (I'm sorry for keeping you that long without notice... so there, I'm leaving).

>Ophélie Bau, one of the main actress, already have left the room when the lights turned on. She didn't show up at the press conference the next day either.

Kechiche made good films before so maybe it won't be trash, the reception to the film is quite divisive. As far as Kechiche's films go, they are very sensual and naturalistic. If you are in the mood they can be very good, although this one is 3,5 hours which gives me a pause.
He explained at the press conference that he apologized because of his education, he considers it polite to apologize after you have taken up so much of somebody's time. I didn't catch the whole press conference but some american journalist asked him about this and his sexual allegations and Kechiche seemed quite annoyed. It's shame that Ophelie left, she was quite good in the first film.

The press conference is pure gold.
youtu.be/d9wb8j3iUNg

>some american journalist asked him about this and his sexual allegations
Literally EVERY fucking interview one (((((journalist)))) is there to derail it, its fucking insane.

Surprisingly there were a few critics sucking his dick in a good way during the press conference.
Some of them made allegories you could think he didn't know about when it's his movie.
Also he said that the cuts included some dialogue scenes that obviously would have let the viewer breath between twerking scenes.
The man said he regretted cutting them and will put them back in for proper release.

So he will make the film even longer. Seems like the film is bloated now. Critics always praise filmmakers during press conferences at cannes, i'm surprised that the one journalist even asked such a negative question, with such a sharp tone of voice. I haven't seen that in a while.

It was a special midnight showing (aka do your worst to fuck with us), hors-compétition, and still was panned with people leaving and questioning what was the point of cumshotting the audience with 3D.
Kechiche came, fucked with them to the point his own actress left to protect herself from the embarrassment of people turning to her when they say her getting her pussy eaten on camera, and half of her shots focused on her bare ass.
And after he just said thanks, I'm out.
He didn't even care to put credits, that could answer the question of was it really her pussy getting eaten.

Poor Ophelia, she seems nice.

It's almost over. The French faggots yet again shoehorned mediocre French flicks into the main competition while relagating better movies somewhere else.

In the Russian poll highest ratings came from women. Makes you think.

Agreed Desplechin and Dolan shouldn't have been in competition based on the reviews. The Lighthouse on the other hand should have been in competition.

Didn't they also praise A History of Violence for the cunnilingus scene? Which was fun seeing as they also hated the later sex scene in the film saying it was rape, forgetting it made sense narrative wise im a movie about a man going from meek to violent.

To be honest, Eggers is a nobody. Films from main competition usually come from established directors or actors turned directors. Eggers made one critically acclaimed film, but that's it. I'm almost certain his next film will enter one of the big film festivals.

>from original 4h-is
>cut to 3h30
>back to 4h-ish
Imagine a movie added at the last minute because the editing took so long.
It seems it was shot more than a year ago.
He spent so much time on the editing deck fapping to see what sequence would cream his pants best that he took almost a year on editing alone.
He even rejected every questions about the "sexy" parts of it, and the process of making the movie.
>being that based
I don't know if he's a perv retard that overstayed his hype, or just a kino porn director that said to himself
>yeah let's try "normal" movies, I'm supposed to be Arab after all

The funny thing is, if he was a woman he wouldn't be criticized like that.

I mean this year there are films from first time directors. Diop and Ladj never made anything, maybe some shorts. Even those films don't have exceptional ratings unlike Eggers who got really great reviews. It's just shame because i think film with such a strong vision and performances could have won some prize. Some people who are at the festival commented on this. As far as established directors go Bonello could have been in competition. I just don't know why they don't turn down some established names. Last year as far as i know they turned down Leigh, Nemes and Reygadas. They should have turned Dolan and Desplechin down.

He didn't explain anything at the press conference, that was quite funny, even denied that it's reaction to the critics. I'm actually quite surprised by the hate that the film is getting, i will see it for sure. The first part had just one sex scene. It was mostly sensual experience like being on holiday for three hours. Although the last part was at nightclub and there were lot of asses and it dragged on for too long.

Reminds me of that one review from IMDB about Girlhood (Sciamma):

>The director's creepiness is double. The actresses have no idea that the unrealistic drama Sciamma has written for them is nothing but a pretext to perv on the otherness of their black bodies. Watching the film, we sense that this act of subtle deception perpetrated on the actresses by the director is a necessary ingredient in Sciamma's perverse scenario. Not only is she getting off on their otherness, she is getting off their ignorance of what is really going on.
>Visually, the film is difficult to watch because of the constant close-ups. They create a claustrophobic effect that renders directly Sciamma's desire to possess her characters. Her camera is glued to their skin, incessantly and pervily traveling up and down their bodies. The fight scenes, each of which ends with a black teenage girl being beaten, stripped, and humiliated in front of a frothing crowd, form the true center of the movie. Here is where Sciamma's slip shows. We can sense her licking her lips and getting excited as she films these girls clawing at each other like enraged pit bulls.
>Rather than focusing on the standard fixed body parts as the perverse male gaze would, the perverse female gaze treats every inch of these girls as an erogenous zone. The resulting absence of a fixed point of view elegantly materializes Sciamma's refusal of the phallic order and its pretension to objectivity.

>Nobody gets mad when Noé films a porn film in 3D but Kechiche gives us a 12 minutes oral sex scene and everybody gets outraged?
Noe is an outsider and will never win shit.
Kechiche already won the Palm and, for that, is supposed to be part of the "art mainstream", and his actions can be used as ammunition in the cultural war.
I've only seen the first one, but it doesnt help that the movie was boring, and that the main character seems like a self-insert of Kechiche.

>Who can really say, but it will sure rile the prudes and tut-tutters
What fucking retard wrote this. Nobody gives a shit that some faggot filmed a porn, they give a shit he tried to call it a film. Fuck this reviewer and fuck this faggot director

>Noe is an outsider and will never win shit
Not really, every Noe film shows at cannes. He doesn't win shit because his films are quite divisive.

Let me get this right, it's basically a film in which a bunch of French people with non-European ancestry "fuck" each other in a "hyper realistic" fashion?

fuck off

>the main character seems like a self-insert of Kechiche.
This is the biggest gripe really. It is quite evident

>178 shots of asses
Imagine polite critic being so much butthurt she had to count them.
>fun fact : some older women that were asked about the movie praised it as a wonderful new way to show kino women
The hate comes from the twitter boys and girls that got bored and shocked of Kechiche showing them the beauty of these sweating bodies dancing around when all they're used to praise is fat whales complaining about the patriarchy.

>the french
>ever

reminder that one of these toads wrote directed and starred in a film entirely to get Chloë Sevigny to blow him

Who hurt you?

>based

>exclusively casts tunisian male leads and pairs them with french qts to have sex with

Yes it seems like what is being criticized is the way he shoots bodies, focuses on asses etc. Not really abundance of sex scenes, based on what i have read there is only the pussy eating scene. So it seems like it's not porn but more like sensual movements, erotic dancing on focus on these things for some reason enrage critics.

All artists are perverts. Nothing wrong with that. Michelangelo probably fucked his twink model in the ass after finishing David.

>self-insert of Kechiche
This isnt inherently bad

You mean Vincent Gallo, born in Buffalo, from two sicilians migrants? Christ just KILL yourself

That's just your own headcanon. Homosexuals like yourself are in the minority.

Todas really loved Il Traditore for some reason.

He seems reasonably French

The main character seems like closeted fag.

Who are even the critics there? I look at the poll often but are they some kind of high brow respected critics or what?

>my own headcanon
>writes love letters to 30 years younger men
Kek. If you're obsessed with the beauty of a male body you're very likely gay. Simple as that. This is also true for other fetishes. I bet Bouguereau was a pedo.

And you confidently wrote all that without even the care of making a 2s Google search, so smugly assured in your ignorance. Kill yourself.

They are the most pretentious critics out there. The kinds of guys who love Lav Diaz and similar stuff.

I'm not even the dude you replied to. It's just really funny to see you rage uncontrollably in this thread.

This is the same movie as the thread earlier about the big-assed chick?

There is no real reason why I shouldn't tell stupid people to kill themselves.

This is Roger Koza's (one of the critics there) list of top 2017 films.

Zama — Lucrecia Martel
Western — Valeska Grisebach
The Impossible Picture — Sandra Wollner
Good Manners — Marco Dutra and Juliana Rojas
Barbs, Wastelands — Marta Mateus
Milla — Valérie Massadian
Baronesa — Juliana Antunes
Alanis — Anahí Berneri
Drift — Helena Wittmann
Luz Obscura — Susana de Sousa Dias
Faces Places — Agnès Varda and JR

The director is an ugly, black-eyed, creepy shitskin.

People need to have sex holy shit. Who walks out cause of a cunnilingus

You go do that, I won't kill myself though and you'll continue to rage for some inane reason.

Was it 15 minutes long and unsimulated?

They liked The Lighthouse, i think i will love that based on all the things i have read about it. It's still quite strange that pretentious highbrow critics like Il Traditore which seems like straightforward mafia thriller. The same goes for Tarantino, i don't understand the hard on some highbrow european critics have for him. Also strange that the Malick has such a low rating.

People like that sometimes really like mainstream films or even trashy blockbusters. Few years ago that Russian guy from Slant or Mubi (I don't remember) praised Resident Evil 5 or 6 calling it a masterpiece and including it in his top 10 films of the year (among non-mainstream festival films). Cahiers du Cinema often puts critically panned films on their top 10 lists, they also usually really like Spielberg.

Cahiers putting The Post on their top 10 was really funny. They have certain directors whom they love and love to suck their dicks.

I dont get how people can like Zama, it was a 2/10 at most
The Post was pretty good imho, much better than Bridge of Spies

I liked Zama it was pretty interesting. The Post on the other hand was completely manipulative predictable trash, Streep was Streep and the pandering to feminists and several cringe worthy moments were really terrible. Bridge of Spies had better performances and didn't feel that calculated. The Post was film which felt like Spielberg made it so he could get an Oscar because muh relevant to todays political climate.

youtu.be/yo2ADDDpRGg
The film got massive applause at the end of the screening.

Blue was about the relationship about two lesbian girls, the SJW crowd cried of joy and the overlong sex scene didn't bother them then.
But now that it's heterosexual and they didn't show a dick, it's muh male-gaze.
Some of those older women I mentioned talked about the pussy scene as a woman empowered moment, since it's a man giving the best oral sex he can to a woman, with the focus being on her pleasure.
Cognitive dissonance is now a way to devise people.

based

>they didn't even bother filming the entire applause and/or people leaving
Wtf

Within the Spielberg manipulative tricks, The Post was more honest than Bridge. Shows Streep incompetence in the beginning, shows how deep she is within the Washington power structures, and how easily they control her. It was also better directed.
There are only two shots in the Post, the triumph staircase travelling and the ending that connects directly with All The Presidents Men. Both calculated for Oscar relevance, agree, but that's normal Spielberg.
The Post also has that shot of the little girl passing over the documents with a glass of lemonade, which was great.

I couldnt find anything worthy in Zama, save the acting.

Why knock Spielberg's manipulation when you should celebrate that he can do it like no one else in history. how it utilizes film in a way of its utmost potential.

>women: have sex incel
>women, also: stop having so much sex
wtf??!?

Is he, dare I say, /ourmuslim/?

Im watching the cannes interviews, they are absolutely insane. Why are thye even there ?

The Bridge at least felt like someone competent wrote the script, Mark Rylance killed it in his role and the whole story was much more interesting. The Post felt like average biopic the script had nothing special in it and several moments were cringe inducing. When Streep's character walks down the stairs and every women stares at her as if she was a goddess, that was terrible. Also the visual style of Spielberg's films is getting stale, it looks all the same. The drab visuals and windows which exude terrible amount of light as if they were lightbulbs. My main problem is that it's average story, badly presented by Spielberg's standards with unconvincing performances, Streep is just so annoying.
Plenty of directors can manipulate audience, problem with Spielberg is that he does it completely artificially, without any nuance. Good manipulation is manipulation you don't even notice or notice upon further thinking about the film.

Which one do you mean?

Same bullshit that the girl tackling on Quentin for the Robbie line count. Where Quentin refused to engaged, Kechiche actually gave a good answer.
They are more interested in the real life issues, that are irrelevant when you're talking about a movie. It's baiting to get a headline out of it.
Same way some interviews turn sour when you can't stop asking about that shit the guy said 20 years ago.

this is projection

when is he going to release the hundred hours of footage of lea and adele fucking as extras on bluray

>You all probably think 'what about Kechiche'? Kechiche is blood from the eyes. Total cinema, turning into total twerking. But the main thing that it puts to the women is a question: is it more important for us to struggle with objectification or cunnilingus (yes, it’s necessary to choose one thing)? I honestly choose cuni. The 13-minute (amateurs felt) answer to Vincent Gallo in The Brown Bunny. 'Mektoub: Intermezzo' isn't a pornography or misogyny, and certainly not evidence of dementia with impotence. Kechiche knows the aroma and taste of women, he knows what they want. The same as men only a little gently.
Russian women liked it.

That one youtube.com/watch?v=d9wb8j3iUNg
There was also a cunt at the Refn interviews who was just there to say that his movies are shallow.
Kechiche was trending on twitter today and it was literally only baitclicks...
