It's not art, it's a commodity

Absolutely unique. Sculpting in time.

This

Cinema is the appropriation of art and story for purposes of propaganda.

Hey Tarkovsky, you dropped this

Not all films have economic/political intents.

You can't make a film without money. And no one gives money without an economic or political intent.

Entertainment for the masses is a political/economic driven act.

Not all films are entertainment for the masses you dumb mental midget.

Niche art films serve the same purpose as mass market media. To keep every level of intellect complacent, mass market movies for the brainlets, art films for the intellectuals. They both serve the same purpose.

Which movie s it from? Ingmar Bergman but which?

Skammen, from 1968

>cinema
>art
pick one.
cinema is a craft. A craft can yield a work of art, but it's not art by definition.

Define art.

no u

>Well what a cohencidence it just so happens that this one art form I enjoy is the greatest one of all that combines all other artforms and is thus superior and by extension makes me a superior human for enjoying it
"No!"

>I don't think we've seen any cinema yet. I think we've seen 100 years of illustrated text.

Was Peter Greenaway right?

No

Cinematography is unique to cinema.
This is your brain rotting on capitalism.

Define art then, asshat

Greenaway is kind of funny, i do agree with him about visual literacy but his claim shot all screenwriters is stupid. It's kind of ironic coming from him since his films are very well written and quite tightly composed.

Based motherfucker.

No, he is never right about anything.

>calls something art
>asks others to define it
why

Shame, one of his best and most underrated.

Seems like Greenaway hasn't watched enough movies. Not surprising, considering the trash he makes.

based

But Greenaway made some great films although i do agree that he probably doesn't even watch films, just talks out of his ass.
