Is Malick the most /lit/ director?

>>24554354 (OP)
I'd say Peter Greenaway.

>>24554354 (OP)
wtf does that even mean

>>24554358
What director do you think most embodies the "Ludo-ness" of Kino?

>>24554357
He sucks

>>24554364
This only confirms it (/lit/ also sucks).

>>24554362
Ludo means game. What director plays more with the medium? Godard, maybe.

>>24554354 (OP)
Malick is lyrical. /lit/ is mostly epic novel.

>>24554354 (OP)
pasolini, no contest

>>24554354 (OP)
Lars Von Triers

/thread

Is McCarthy the most /tv/ author?

>>24554370
If we separate 'playing' from 'good films' then really it should be Eisenstein. The Russians played more with montage etc.

For me, its Bela Tarr.

>>24554509
If I were N Refn I think I would commit suicide or emigrate, rather than live in a country where I was publicly graded one step down from von Trier.

>>24554354 (OP)
obviously the Eggman, he loves old European shit

>>24554509
He is our guy: https://faroutmagazine.co.uk/the-novel-inspired-the-style-of-lars-von-trier/

>>24554354 (OP)
it's Eric Rohmer duh

Del Toro for sure

fellini

Are books the most /lit/ medium? Any recs?

>>24557310
No, albums from the 1970s, 90s and 2000-2008 are the most literary medium.

>>24554354 (OP)
in a to the wonder interview ben affleck says malick got everyone a copy of anna karena to read and ben affleck said he tried to read being and time to try to understand the movie better

>>24554354 (OP)
excusez-moi

>>24554354 (OP)
>bergman
>pasolini
>tarkovsky

>>24557568
(also forgot fassbinder)

>>24557571
Yeah Fassbinder would easily be my pick for most /lit/.

>>24557609
*solves terrorism in ur path*

>>24554354 (OP)
no, thatll be luchino visconti

>>24557609
Useless pretentious cunt that needs shooting isn't the definition of /lit./

Most of /lit/ is incapable of the depth of character needed for pretention.

>>24554509
Lars, Werner Herzog, Michael Haneke. Edward Hopper on the lower brow end.

>>24557654
filtered and/or only watched angst essen seele auf

>>24557686
Die angst present is angst nicht angst as sicht.

Enjoy delivering my mail tomorrow.

>>24557708
let me guess, you think of yourself as a "passable" german speaker?

>>24554354 (OP)
David Lynch is the Kafka of cinema
Kafkaesque and Lynchesque are synonyms

>>24557714
No mate, I rape Frankfurt to death because the DRR was the the correct line.

I fuck your mum's cunt arse shit out my bother.

He's the least /lit/ director because he couldn't (and wouldn't, apparently) write to save his life. His musing on existence are flat and stupid, and his bigger contribution to cinema is his (ab)use of the steadycam from the Tree of Life onwards, which resulted in a series of movies that all look the same, and which inspired ad people to now sell us cars and similar products as if a new Ford was itself the unconcealment of Being.
If you want /lit/ cinema go for directors who are actually capable of writing dialogue and thought - fucking Richard (School of Rock) Linklater can write better screenplays than this retard.

>>24554354 (OP)
It’s Michael Cacoyannis

He made three superb adaptations of Euripides

>>24557131
>>24557651

And would add edward yang and wim wenders

>>24557482

I can't be the only one who's noticed his footfag imagery.

>>24557326
This but unironically

Fun fact: Delon was to originally be Encolpius in Fellini Satyricon along with a bunch of other A listers of his day like the Beatles, Mae West as the nymphomaniac priestess, Van Heflin and Jimmy Durante but these casting choices fell through because the studio didn’t have enough money for all of them.
