Fuck the normies. Fuck the race wars. Fuck the american politics. Fuck the twitter threads. Fuck capeshit and blockbusters in general.
Yea Forums is no longer an "accesible board". We discuss films in here. We talk about the filmmaking process,abour our favourite directors and the history of the medium. We post about our own experiences in the industry. We post our scripts and ask for help to get better at writting.
Your intent is noble but this board cannot be redeemed. That said there are some good threads sometimes.
There is a nice thread about favourite directors now.
Yes, i already posted. I'm the Ozu/Mizoguchi/Kurosawa/Pawlikowski/Wenders poster
Nice, i'm OP in that one.
See, this is what the board needs.
No more capeshit or politics.
Everyone should be here for film discussion.
Everyone should stay on-topic.
Do this and the board will improve.
We failed to gatekeep a long ago, but we can still improve
I'm just going to go ahead and suppose you said it.
Would you want your film to be enjoyed by all demographics equally? or merely gesture this way as is being done currently..
One of those is not like the others
Ozu discussion? I've seen Tokyo story and floating weeds, I preferred floating weeds. What else do I need to see?
what is his best feature?
I'm thinking vertigo or rear window
Psycho no question
whats your favorite Ozu ?
I really liked I Was Born, But...
Opinions on Michelangelo Antonioni. What are your favourite films by him?
I liked The Only Son, An Autumn Afternoon and Late Spring the most.
Late Spring, There was a Father
Well that's Favorite Directors, they don't have to be all alike
My favourite director it's him.
So practical, so easy in his storyboarding. Beautiful, simple stories: beautiful, simple movies
unique style. i`ve only seen Blow Up tho
i`ve only seen 7 or 8 of his all 10/10 my favorite director
Just keep watching if you enjoyed his essentials, it's unironically all good
Check out the alienation trilogy.
meh ive seen 7, 8 max. id give him a 9.6
Hell yeah dude thanks for the thread, I've been trying to be more active over the last week starting threads trying to stimulate discussion.
Probably Rope but it's hard to choose.
Do you have a favorite of his? I'd have to go with Assault On Precinct 13 or They Live.
Curious if anyone has seen this and has any thoughts. I thought it was incredible but haven't seen any talk about it.
Rear Window and Strangers on a Train are his tensest thrillers imo. A recent thread reminded me I need to see The Trouble with Harry. Mr and Mrs. Smith for that matter but more because I love Carole Lombard

Its impossible to have a Yea Forums board without politics because everything released these days is politicized and 90% of it is capehit.
Also this is Yea Forums, you take the good with the bad
Thanks to whoever recommended me The Art of Dramatic Writing in the thread about screenwriting. It's a brilliant resource and succinctly brings across major points about drama in literature and film.
so you think you have taste but you don't, congratulations
What films follow the three unities?
If i don't watch this stuff i'll never get to the point where i enjoy different stuff, same as your 16yrs old version that liked Tarantino and thought he was the best director of all times
I actually am happy for this because maybe someone can tell me where or when I can watch "The Vast of Night"
You're brainwashed if you associate politics with everything. If you have nothing to contribute then leave
If you fixed this board election fags like me would have nowhere to go
Tomorrow at Edinburgh film fest.
I like John Carpenter
How pleb am i?
I quite enjoyed Standoff. Cinestate is doing great stuff.
It was your typical anti-2A film from liberals.
Strangers on a Train

is Fassbinder a meme? Tried to watch Fox and his Friends but it was just a bunch of guys kissing each other and being gay.
rear window, followed by rope
Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar
Well he was gay. Berlin Alexanderplatz is a masterpiece.
is he actually good though? Or is it just a case of ameritards shitting their pants because there was finally a German artist who liked getting fucked up the ass instead of killing Jews?
Last German artist was Hitler.
What movie should I watch tn?
Some of his films are good. He was very inspired by Douglas Sirk, some of his films are too melodramatic for me but he has made some good ones.

The Problem is Hollywood is Dead now , they will only make shit tier brain dead crap nowadaze , due to the pol of today , You will Not see any Classics made EVER Again cos it will upset some butthurt Twatter snowflake. Think of the classics from the last 50 yrs , they would NEVER Ever be made incase it upset the zoomer generation , Its Over For Hollywood . I must say Foreign Films and Tv still produce remarkable Outstanding Cine /tv , writing ,scripts , actors , an just drawing the viewer in , look at Chernobly recently , it was bleak as fuck but an Oustanding Drama , Pretty Much like the Beebs Bodyguard show , it was a gritty edge of seat watch , and the best bit was it melted Twitter ,when the bad terrorist was a Mudslime , Gommorah is another Based series .
I adore foreign films and tv , It just draws me in, Generation Zoomer/Plebbit has ruined Everything , I hope that they are happy with their society in the next 30 years , reminds me of the Origional Time Machines ,kek.

No Mutiny on The Bounty.
Vertigo by a country mile. One of the only times where he was trying to say something and be boldly artistic rather than just focusing on the rollercoaster and guiltily sneaking in the artistry through the back door.
John Ford is the greatest American filmmaker of all time and that is an absolute fact
Preferred Mutiny on the Buses kek
heh... nothing personal kid
Autumun Afternoon, that ending really broke my heart and the fact that it was his last film makes it all the more sad. Really want to know what kind of man he was behind his films.

Well what other films should i shill? The threads i make are usually about favourite directors or about films i have seen recently. I have been watching Greenaway, Vláčil and Angelopoulos and i have been making threads about them for 2 weeks. Once i move to other directors i will make threads about them. I did make the thread about Taiwanese New Wave, Antonioni and French New Wave recently so it's not like i only make the same thread over and over. Also i use favourite because that's what i'm used to.

I agree. We also need to ridicule everyone working against that. Like how it was years ago on this website. Now it's filled with kids who think they are cool being here, even tho that's not the purpose.
Raoul Ruiz is quite an interesting director. People here should check him out.

When I think of Hitchcock I think of Rear Window. The pacing is a bit punishing in his movies in general, but I think that is his best.
Rope is good but too long for what it is.
Psycho is good, but the ending feels really dated.
He's pretty cool. Weird how he stopped making kinos in his old age though.
Ikiru is fantastic. Throne of Blood, Ran, Rashomon, Seven Samurai, etc. Only one I didn't quite like that I've seen is Red Beard, just found it kind of dull.
They are all the same. Watch everything that has a season in the title and you'll be fine
Pretty much this. Vertigo stands far above the rest of his work.

What kind of person do you imagine?
What are the best director + actress pairings? Bonus points if the actress and the director are in relationship in real life.
Michelangelo Antonioni and Monica Vitti is obviously the best pairing, with the best films.
Polanski and Emmanuelle Seigner is another good pairing.

I like the characters of Tokyo Story more. Do you prefer Floating Weeds for the colorful visuals or because it's more dramatic and less muted than Tokyo Story?
If you like the colors, watch An Autumn Afternoon. If you like the drama, try Late Spring.

Im a marine veteran, and an investigator with my state police, its a great career but deep down not what I want to do. Ive always wanted to be an actor, I dont care about the fame or money I just love working on movies and seeing them come together. Im taking some acting classes now but everyone else is a college art school kid, the closest to my age is still 9 years younger then me. The class is fun and im learning a lot but its obviously just a bigger course for kids and the teacher is a little too full of himself. Id like to move on to do extra work but im not sure where to start. Would my background and current job prevent me from getting anywhere? Im not ready to quit my job just yet but who knows, its nice to have a backup and if the offers come through one day I just might. I cant really talk to the other guys I work with about it

I liked Kwaidan a lot. Has that same stage play feel but the colors are gorgeous.
why did it resonate so well with the general public? its clearly competent and entertaining but why do so many consider it the greatest film?
The next challenge hotshot, I’m afraid here’s where your journey ends.
It's extremely accessible. Even brainlets can understand that it's special.
>[Shawshank Redemption] ranked as Britain's favorite film in a 2015 YouGov poll. When the British Film Institute analyzed the demographic breakdown of the YouGov poll, it noted that The Shawshank Redemption was not the top-ranked film in any group, but was the only film to appear in the top 15 of every age group, suggesting it is able to connect with every polled age group, unlike Pulp Fiction which fared better with younger voters, and Gone with the Wind (1939) with older voters.
Any of you guys watch Too Old to Die Young? It's pretty much just peak Refn goofing around for 11 hours. Some really fun shots with consistently interesting camera movements

Hard to break in. I've been shopping two scripts. Both semi-finalists in pretty big comps. Querying has been a dud. I've been shooting for that 8 on the blacklist and hoping to win a comp.
Here's a reality that people don't want to accept- politics do matter when it comes to getting by readers. I think you have to be at least somewhat good AND incorporate identity politics in an obvious, pandering way (at least if you're unknown). Look at all the trending blacklist scripts and see what they have in common.
I'm not saying I'm that great either. Maybe I have a lot to learn. Still, I can't help but feel like creating a story that intentionally does NOT include politics only makes it harder.

>Lmao how am i supposed to guess a film from a fram
You aren’t. They’re more interested in self-wankery than exposing others to films they don’t know about, only revealing their hand of ebin arthouse flicks once you signal defeat by asking what movies they got their frames from.
Some of them were hard, he should have used more memorable frames.
>Still, I can't help but feel like creating a story that intentionally does NOT include politics only makes it harder.
Big dilemma for sure, and unfortunately it seems that in order to make it, almost everyone has to sell their soul in some way, for lack of a better term. I guess it just comes down to how important staying true to yourself is, and weighing the risk of not going anywhere against that. Would you be willing to share a quick synopsis of the scripts? I'd love to hear them.
Ill bet i could have solved them all with reverse image search
Because i bet he picked all those images from a quick google search
Sure, still he should have used more memorable frames. I have seen The Best of Youth recently and couldn't get that one for a long time. He should have used some scene where the main characters are in the frame, not the stupid wife.
I love Antonioni, one of the best directors ever for sure. He has a great eye for composition. My favourite is the alienation trilogy, all of them are masterpieces. Red Desert, Blow-up, The Passenger and Zabriskie Point are also great. His films before alienation trilogy are also very good, quite underseen i would say. His films after The Passenger are quite interesting, the only thing that i didn't like from him is his segment in Eros. I guess he was going senile. I was in Noto last year, where they shot some segments in L'Avventura. It hasn't changed that much. It's a really nice and cool city.
please tell me to stop being ADD riddled
I used to really like watching old cinema stuff, even did an italian film class, now I cant sit through anything for more than 1/2 an hour without getting distracted

My favourites are the thing and prince of darkness.
Assault was a good movie, the scene with the little girl creeped me out 'cause is rare to see that scenes in a movie (today are practically absent, like death of animals etc.)
You' re right.
Teller's pretty good but I can't help but feel like his role was meant for the Goose. it's pretty much the same autistic pretty boy with violent tendencies character from Drive and OGF

2. The spoiled prince ____ is sent on a voyage to help relieve a failing mine, but as he arrives he learns his quest is far more dangerous than anyone imagined. It's Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom mixed with Aladdin.
Overrated film.
I disagree.

whyis this so underrated among the general audiences? it’s far above the Godfather or Goodfellas, both revered as “classics”
The first thing you learn in film school, at least in France, is that no work can be apolitical. Everything has an end and a position. It doesn't matter if it's fiction or nonfiction. So, /pol/ is a inherent part of cinema.
I want to watch it just for Genesis.
Probably because that kike movie wasn't as good as any of the Godfather movies
Holy fuck Scrader knows his shit.
Her last album was really good.
That's a doctrine of totalitarian political philosophies.
Innocence, Blood Diamond, -

The Passion of Joan of Arc??? , The Road Home, Why Has Bodhi-Dharma Left for the East
I don't watch animated films, so i don't know those.
I prefer The Godfather and Goodfellas to it, still a great film. Maybe because it's so long? Also the rape scene may turn some people off and the whole structure of the film may be too much for some people.
This feels like a 2011 thread. Good. Purge the normie trash and it will be a proper board again. But I guess it will be a hard fought battle.
Who else still mesmerized by based god Tarkovsky?
Just recently caught Andrei Rublyov again together with Zerkalo. His visual work with Wadim Yusow is still as stunning and I would be hard pressed to name any other director that accomplished so much visual storytelling with yet so little to work with.
Neck yourself
What does everyone think of Sergio Corbucci? I've only seen Django and The Great Silence, and I thought they were both pretty amazing.
Fucking dumb cunt. Step outside your comfort zone. There’s more to film than what you see on your local billboards.
He's like a more "out there" Leone. He isn't aping Kurosawa or Ford. Think of him doing a "Tarantino Remix" of westerns he liked, yet without being sarcastic or needlessly edgy and less humor.
Great Silence is the only fictional Westerner with historically correct ending. Well that and the Deadwood series.
>I think I tried to quit the film three times because he said, 'I want to tie you up and whip you, and that's not to be kind.' I was, like, what do you mean? I've come all this way to rehearse with you, to work with you, and now you're telling me you want to tie me up and whip me? But that's Lars, and Lars takes his clothes off and stands there naked and you're like, 'Oh, put your clothes back on, Lars, please, let's just shoot the film.' But he's very, very raw and he's almost like a child in that he'll say and do anything. And we would have to eat dinner every night and most of the time that would end with me in tears because Lars would sit next to me and drink peach schnapps and get drunk and get abusive and I'd leave and...anyway, then we'd go to work the next morning
>paying any attention to French "philosophy"
That's your first mistake
Deleuze was a far right extremist wearing Marxian lambskin.
I rewatched Andrei Rublev with my mom and she fell asleep. She woke up and complained that it was boring. Really great film though, surpassed Zerkalo as my personal favorite of his. I just recently watched Nostalgia for the first time and I feel a lot of it went over my head- definitely down for a rewatch at some point. The candle scene was pretty ridiculous- Tarkovsky had to be making fun of himself a little bit with that.
That's not John Cassavetes
Yeah, the passage of time with Tarkovsky can feel weird for many, drawn out even, if not accustomed to this slower style. Usually I rec Solaris or Stalker for people wanting to get into Tark, as they are more "digestible".
As for the scene you mentioned - I think it's open to interpretation as Tarkovsky never gave hard answers and spoonfed you any kind of intention. Mostly make up your own mind, basically.
You should take a look at Ivan's Childhood if you haven't. It's a nice starting point if you want to understand his "logic" more.
Let's get a comprehensive look at /film/'s tastes. List your favorite director and your favorite band.
He is great. One of the best directors out there for sure.
>His visual work with Wadim Yusow is still as stunning and I would be hard pressed to name any other director that accomplished so much visual storytelling with yet so little to work with.
I think there are many accomplished visual storytellers: Ruiz, Rivette, Tarr, Angelopoulos, Antonioni, Has etc.
Read my scripts first act and SHIT ON IT.
T. Ville
I can see Solaris and Stalker being more easily digestible for people because they're science fiction short story adaptations but they're the biggest offenders of long-windedness in my opinion. I watched Stalker with a friend not too long ago, expecting to enjoy it more on a second viewing, but we both came away thinking it was way longer than it needed to be- and with not sufficient payoff. Solaris I've only seen once but I remember being annoyed by the pacing. The pacing in Andrei Rublev, Zerkalo, Nostalghia, and Ivan's Childhood is all perfect.
Yasujiro Ozu
Fishmans
Bergman
King Crimson
Me personally didn't feel the long windedness at all. Mostly people from my friend group that had an issue with tarkovskys style had an easier time with those compared to zerkalo etc. - maybe because of the narrative which is more strict and direct?
Who do you prefer and why?

There's a scene anywhere you go. The smaller the scene the bigger you can be
If you really must, watch it while doing something simple on the side. Even if you miss some of it because of your little attention span, atleast you get through it all.
You have to practice. Stare into wall every day. Start with 10 minutes and gradually up the time.
Put together an acting reel, go find small productions and act in them. You won't be in competition with people younger than you, you will have different roles. The main thing is to start asap, you can't have 10 years experience before you've had your first experience. Like any job you will meet like minded people and work together.
You're playing a word game, politics means policy means standing decision. Just don't think about it, and deny when someone brings it up.
No you don't, nobody is that unique. This website for example. It's just easier to concede when you are dealing with established players.
Anyone else here aspire to become an influential film director?
What are you doing to make it a reality?

I loved that film except for the dinner party scene which is literally an unconnected short film that completely breaks the otherwise straight narrative flow.
I get the thematic connection, don't get me wrong. But everything else in the film is a literal progression of the story connected to the characters. That one scene is incredibly jarring and out of place
Nah, it's definitely gotten worse here than before. I came here right now to find some movie suggestions, but didn't find anything.
>digital cameras make everything look like flat depthless muddled SHIT
You're a fucking idiot. Never talk about movies again
recommend me some sad/regret/loneliness/haunting kino's Yea Forums
So what type of film are you looking for?
Easily the greatest serial of the year so far. And I really fucking enjoyed Chernobyl and Catch 22.
>Normies watch Ozu and Ford films
You must be dense
Good argument
>Still, I can't help but feel like creating a story that intentionally does NOT include politics only makes it harder.
To a degree. On one hand, you're playing a dangerous game if you do include politics; even if it's the right message today, will it be the 'right' message in ten years time? Or even one year? Will you lose everything for saying something they decide isn't cool?
On the other hand, nothing's stopping you from making your own shit and producing it yourself.
Catch 22 is awful
Something to do with survival/adventure type of film.
Also first Dumont. Good.
>On the other hand, nothing's stopping you from making your own shit and producing it yourself.
Money. And don't be one of those "u can just shoot it on ur iPhone" faggots
Werckmeister Harmonies, Eternity and a Day, La Dolce Vita, Landscape in the Mist, La Grande Bellezza, Manchester by the Sea, The Man Who Sleeps, Wild Strawberries, Autumn Sonata, Paris Texas
Are you twelve?
The Grey, The Way Back, All is Lost, The Descent, Embrace of the Serpent, The Treasure of the Sierra Madre, The Wages of Fear, Sorcerer, Nostos: The Return, Letter Never Sent, Walkabout, 127 Hours
>Embrace of the Serpent
Thanks, I'll watch this one.
There's no argument to be made when someone says something fundamentally retarded with no basis.
Eustache
Joy Division
You are welcome.
My friend is literally shooting a feature film on a canon m50 (~$300) right now. As in, this very second.
>Gommorah is another Based series .
fuck dude I thought I was the only one. best show on the planet.
you just KNOW
bergman and andersson imo, not a fan of ullman as much
I really hated this film. Symbolism simply isn't for me.
That's shame. His films are kind of divisive. Maybe check out Mysteries of Lisbon, that one is more straightforward period piece.
House is Black, Taste of Cherry, Wheel of Ashes, 'night Mother, La Collectionneuse (the rohmer flick), Le Reyvon Vert (rohmer again), Sound of Insects: Record of a Mummy, A Woman in Africa
these killed me
>Knight of Cups, Into Great Silence, Why Did Bodhidharma Leave for the East, Amongst White Clouds
>all political
this is why your generation will never produce anything great
What was the last 10/10 and 0/10 film you've watched?
Pic related for 10/10, Repo Man for 0/10.
>Repo Man for 0/10
Why?
Too dumb and too 80's for me. Normally I'm ok with trashy films because they tend to be at least entertaining in a "too bad it's good" kind of way, but I didn't feel an ouce of enjoyment watching this.
Based, there's going to be a John Carpenter late-night marathon at a college theater near where I live. The Thing, Starman, They Live and Village of the Damned back to back.
Alien
AC/DC
I’m the Scorsese/Malick/Hitchcock/Kiarostami/Lang guy.
I love serious, artistic, thoughtful cinema, but I also start/post in many capeshit/Star Wars/Godzilla threads bc they’re fun tbqhfam
There is some truth to it, though, isn't there? There are certain things digital will never be able to do like film, and it makes film-makers lazy because they can just colour correct everything after shooting.
Yes
>We talk about the filmmaking process,abour our favourite directors and the history of the medium. We post about our own experiences in the industry. We post our scripts and ask for help to get better at writting.
That sounds gay
>This thread is still alive
Maybe there is hope. Why can't Yea Forums have this kind of stuff more consistently?
>There is some truth to it, though, isn't there?
No
>There are certain things digital will never be able to do like film
Nothing you or any human will ever be able to notice
>and it makes film-makers lazy
Cars make people lazy too. What's your point?
> they can just colour correct everything after shooting
Colour correction originated with film stock. You don't think Fincher just somehow managed to desaturate the shit out of the entire world with Se7en do you?
Unironically garbage jannies. If they made any effort at deleting waifu threads, twitter threads and other stuff that is completely unrelated to films, this board would improve tenfold even with a bunch of capeshitters and zoomers around.
I applaud the effort sir or madame. I believe it is futile however. We will never match the energy or free time of the sneed and /pol/ posters. All we can do is try and teach by example.
Rope is my favorite. The swinging door as he puts the rope in the drawer and the close up on chest as the maid is about to discover the body are particularly kino. I've always enjoyed a good long take as well.
The best we can do is keep making these threads in a consistent manor. There has to be at least 1 /film/ thread on Yea Forums everyday for this to work.
It will be drowned in shitposts sooner or later. Some people should learn that replying to people who are just trolling is futile.
I just watched another one of his films, The Face of Another, and it was fantastic.
Don’t think I’ve ever seen something I could legitimately consider a 0/10
>I hate Woody Allen physically, I dislike that kind of man. I can hardly bear to talk to him. He has the Chaplin disease. That particular combination of arrogance and timidity sets my teeth on edge.
>He is arrogant. Like all people with timid personalities, his arrogance is unlimited. Anybody who speaks quietly and shrivels up in company is unbelievably arrogant. He acts shy, but he’s not. He’s scared. He hates himself, and he loves himself, a very tense situation. It’s people like me who have to carry on and pretend to be modest. To me, it’s the most embarrassing thing in the world—a man who presents himself at his worst to get laughs, in order to free himself from his hang-ups. Everything he does on the screen is therapeutic.
Who was in the wrong here?
Too infantile and hackneyed for your patrician tastes, sir?
I rewatched L'Avventura but with some film historian's commentary. So that's 10/10.
Velvet Buzzsaw is the worst film i have seen in some time. I would give it 1/10 since i liked some scenes with Jake, the rest was garbage.
End of the line buddy, time to go home.
Anyone seen this? What did you think of it ? It's one of my fav China films , lot of history and things to be said
Pic related is good shit
lawrence of arabia
talking heads
that's the exact premise of Starfish, except replace witch mother with lesbian lover.
So far I've saved up $60k to fund my own independent film. Don't care if I ever make that money back, so long as the film is watchable.
What are some good filmmaking books?
Zerkalo, The Double Life of Veronique,?
Still Walking, Dogville, Ink

To come this far and have it all be lost.. Don’t fret, no one goes beyond this point, so you’re amongst friends.
Yawn
The Little Mermaid, ?, Baba Yaga

making generals is a mistake
I agree, it would not last very long.
>Transcendental style in film: Ozu, Bresson, Dreyer
Fuck the normies. Fuck the race wars. Fuck the american politics. Fuck the twitter threads. Fuck capeshit and blockbusters in general.
