>The auteur theory, as defined by Andrew Sarris, is applicable to filmmaking practice. However, like most theories of art forms (e.g., Stanislavsky’s on acting) it has bred ridiculous and dangerous excesses. Many young directors now use it as a justification for self-indulgent, dictatorial attitudes, especially when working with actors, just as some insecure actors use a distortion of Stanislavsky’s “method” as a justification for self-indulgent ego trips when working with their fellows.

just watched a bunch of entry-level arthouse movies starting yesterday (oasis 2002, seven samurai, three colors: blue and currently stalker). anyone care to recommend some easy-going films like Oasis 2002 which can hold a small brain's attention for the movie's full duration while i have enjoyed all these films i feel like im always fighting to give them my full undivided attention in the wake of their often slow pacing
Jaxon Brooks
Les Demoiselles de Rochefort, I vitelloni, Killing of a Chinese Bookie, Four Nights of a Dreamer, Orpheus, Beau Travail, El Verdugo, Kiarostami's Koker trilogy, The Passenger, Lola, La Piscine, The Long Goodbye
Ryan Robinson
He will get filtered by The PassengerFour Nights of a Dreamer, Orpheus, Beau Travail and maybe Koker
Ryan Phillips
im a huge fan of 1960s twilight zone fan so premise's like this Orpheus movie are very up my alley but then again i did try to watch The Exterminating Angel like a year and a half ago because it literally sounds like a twilight zone plotline and never finished it. being a brainlet unable to get behind movies with complex cinematography and story telling is a real tragedy
Ayden Rogers
I both hate and love the ending

I know, I meant that it was my first experience with Welles and he has great presence. He was on the screen for 20 minutes, maybe? A bit less?

Joker cinematography.

I liked it more than I expected. The first act was kind of rocky but it becomes a really atmospheric journey afterwards. Was surprised it got an Oscar nom because it’s really sparse compared to other token Asian picks like Parasite
Dominic Jackson
Looking for a movie about a white man over the age of thirty who drops out of society largely due to feelings of depression and how he goes about living after that.
Any recommendations?
Jonathan Parker
Throne of Blood was the first Kurosawa that didn’t really grab me. Felt stiff and bland compared to his other ones, was this because he was going for a more “theatre” feel? Even older films like Rashomon had really vibrant acting and great sets.
Alexander Russell
Any Paul Schrader film
Christian Moore

>was this because he was going for a more “theatre” feel?
That's probably why you felt that way. Throne of Blood took a lot of inspiration from Noh theater. On top of that, it felt more like a Japanese styled adaptation of Macbeth (outside of the beginning and ending) rather than a film with more of Kurosawa's personal touch behind it.
