It's obviously a phallic symbol. Note that it is black.

Might as well call it something. There are reasons to classify Images and Bicycle Thieves as something distinct from, say, Casablanca or The Godfather

"Arthouse" is a legitimate genre classification, not different than saying a "horror" or "comedy" film

major films like Bicycle Thieves and Breathless were commercial hits in their native countries, so what's the distinction if "arthouse" also has mainstream appeal?

Can anyone please help me find either a good torrent with working subtitles or just the subtitles for the film 'The Horse Thief'? The YouTube version has broken English and the YTS version (which I downloaded) has subtitles when noone is speaking and sometimes doesn't have them when everyone is speaking. And they also differ, in one the wife says "Your mother said you are a horse thief" and in the other "Your mother said she doesn't want bad karma" which really isn't the same... None of the torrents on rarbg seem to work

Soviet-era Caucasian filmmaking was heavily oriented toward ethnographic 'tableau vivant' style films. I'm not really sure why, but if I wanted to get really out there I'd venture it might have something to do with their longstanding tradition of Iconography in the context of Orthodox Christianity.
I once had a film professor who had actually done his PhD on Byzantine iconography, but I don't know the details beyond that.

I watched Pasolini's Oedipus Rex, it was good but i think its my least favorite film of him

What do you think of it?

Why are you so mad that people enjoy it though? It IS poetry, Sayat Nova was a poet, and like any poetry you either enjoy it viscerally or you don't. He has more narrative films too, if that's what you prefer.

I have watched all his films and I'm a big fan of his work. Medea and Edipo re are his weakest films.

Yep, search some interviews with Peppiatt talking about Bacon.

Why you act like you can speak the english?

I am published on Pasolini and Medievalism. Hello.

If you like it you like it, of you don't like it you don't like it. Don't get mad at people who like it just because you don't like it, and don't expect them to convince you to like it.

I don't believe that poetry in itself is valuable, rather what the poetry evokes in feelings or ideas it communicates. You're probably right that I came on too strong about it and that it's just not for me. To me, Color of Pomegranate evokes or communicates very little, and it's not it's lack of narrative that I dislike, because to me it almost feel's like it's narrative IS it's central theme. My impression of the film was that it was built around the narrative of Sayat Nova's life but forsakes any actual depth of this narrative in favor of what feels like surface level "poetic" symbolism that's more window dressing than it is depth.

Wasnt Floral Shoppe made by a woman though?

His only cringe moment is hen everyone starts singing that Fiona Apple song in Magnolia. Everything else is excellent.

Please link one of your essays?

You just have a wrong conception of poetry as it needs to be deep, but poetry can be very surface level too, it just needs to evoke imagery/emotions to be poetry. Japanese poetry for instance is just a description of some season 90% of the time, just the musicality of it and the beauty/intensity of the images evoked is what matters, not its 'depth'... Color of pomegranates is not a deep movie and it didn't want to be a deep movie, it wanted to be a poetic/evocative movie.

That's a fine interpretation of poetry and if that's what you search for in poetry, please do!

However, there is no denying that if language/reason/rational was able to capture/define everything that is possible to define, there would be no reason for things like poetry. Color of the Pomegranates is a good example of that POV on poetry, trying to tackle poetry's transcendtalism/mysticism/unintelligiblilty or whatever you want to call it. It admits there are some things in the world that can't be described with "an idea" or can really be communicated at all, yet it undeniable exists. Out of reason. So you struggle to capture it and see what you can do.

I don't even like Color of the Pomegranates that much, but its quite obvious in what its trying to achieve and its quite obvious its very ambitious regardless is trying to communicate a lot, regardless if you think that "unintelligible" its trying to create means very little to you.

>just the musicality of it and the beauty/intensity of the images evoked is what matters
Yeah, I can appreciate that in art which is what i was alluding to with my words "rather what the poetry evokes in feelings", but for me it just didn't achieve that, and I guess I'll have to concede that that's just purely up to personal taste.
You say that it's not deep or trying to be deep, but for me, when I watch it, I can't help but feel like it is trying to be deep. For a purely image/musicality driven film I prefer something like Patrick Bokanowski's "A Solar Dream" (or perhaps a more well known example would be something by Brakhage) which abandons any sense of narrative structure all together. To me, A Color of Pomegranate is somewhere in between these two approaches to film making and it suffers by not being able to achieve a lot in either direction.
Again, I'll say that I was too harsh with my original post, and ultimately comes down to preference, but these are just my thoughts on it.

I would say above Trainspotting, which is above American Psycho and Glengarry Glen Ross for me. Popular cinema is not bad at all I don't know why that misconception exists, what is really annoying is a capeshiter who only watches IMDBs top 250 and pretends to know everything about cinema

I will never forget the lyrics.

Not actually a part of the trilogy but just watched Baraka which is sort of successor to Koyaanisqatsi, being directed by that film's cinematographer.
It was a cool experience, lots of beautiful shots and a cool pacing but I couldnt help but think it felt a little just like some National Geographic show minus the commentary. I guess that's not really a bad thing, and I tried to think that it wasn't a bad thing, but I'd be lying if I said the thought didn't distract me a little.

You believe this because literature is much better a stroking the intellect. It makes you feel smart to understand a good book. Thus, it similarly makes you feel smart to tear down a movie adaption of a book for not holding the same intellectual prowess.
But film is far better at stroking the heart and the soul. Literature is capable of stroking the heart and soul, but only through the intellect, thus much less efficiently. Where a book attacks through the brain, a movie enters through the eyes and ears to attack the soul directly.
In the end comparing the two is comparing apples to oranges, even if the work is a direct adaptation of another. There are some not-great movies adapted from great books, but also some great movies adapted from not-great books.

Anyone here watch the show My Brilliant Friend? It's Italian, love it and the books it's based on. Just finished season 2 and can't wait for three since it's my favourite of the books.

I didnt personally love it but it was still watchable, though if you loathe Gallo's focus on himself, id stay away.

Yes. It's not quite as good but it's still very good.

I love Jodorowsky to death. Have read and watched everything he did, including his biographies and other things. He is a genius, I like him even more as a person than for his film work, I don't consider him a director in a closed label like that.

El Topo is my favourite, but I wish more people saw Fando and Lis, one of his earlier work.

for me it's LANCELOT DU LAC

Didn't know about that, I guess I'll have to check them out

True answer: people who don't care that much about what society thinks enough to act out their homossexuality are also inclined to make more creative ground breaking things.

Nicolas Roeg

It's the best Arthurian film ever made by the best director of all time and it just got a beautiful 4k blu-ray restoration.
Also Gawain is cute.

True sad feeling, and it aint gonna get better when I get out in the workforce

his video essays on Criterion discs are top cringe. his La dolce vita and (iirc) L'argent efforts are particularly embarrassing. there is actually more depth in those babby-tier "Every Frame a Painting" vids on YouTube

Still have nightmares of the guy standing on the ceiling

How did he put out 6 movies in 9 years? Making up for lost time, regretting his 20 year hiatus?

how? by working. why would he regret his filmmaking hiatus? dude just felt like getting back in the game.

For me? Tree of life was okay. But the only good film he made was badlands. But not seen thin red line.

Days of Heaven is great, too.

its on rutracker

All those movies are extremely low effort visual poems, except for a hidden life and the tree of Life

To the Wonder, Knight of Cups, and Song to Song where shot essentially at the same time

To the Wonder was shot a couple of years before Knight of Cups and Song to Song, if memory serves. The latter two were shot back to back, though, before Malick hunkered down in the editing room for a really, really long time. The Last Planet has also wrapped production but since his post is very long, we probably won't see any footage until 2021 or 2022.

So what happened to Steve Mcqueen? What do we think of him? The black director.

To the Wonder was shot in 2010. Knight of Cups and Song to Song in 2012.

Oh then just those two, nevermind

I thought Portman's character was filler in Song to Song. Could have edited out a good 15-20min from that film, tightened it up, and made it would have been more effective.

Mike Leigh
John Waters
Nicolas Roeg

So, uh, do you guys trust Express VPN? I want to start downloading a shit ton of movies.
