>>213616662Why don't you ever rate anything, only mark as watched?
>>213616907that's not my actual account. that's just the account for all the /film/ charts, hence the name. I mark off every film that's on any of the charts. so if you ever want to see every film from every chart, you can just look at the films the account has marked off
>>213616775Ravishing bit of collarbone she's showing there.
>>213616775>all his films are badNah, i've seen Laura, it was alright.
Idk if I was really invested in this after the okinawa trip or the music video format just kept me from being bored

>>213618096Aside from the okinawa slogfest and the former BFF's halfassed spiral into delinquency I also enjoyed most of it, although I'm not so sure if it's because of what I was seeing or just its use of music

>>213616966>so if you ever want to see every film from every chart, you can just look at the films the account has marked offDamn. I've only seen 696 of the 3,386 films this account has marked off. I wonder if anyone is anywhere near close. They would probably be the most knowledgeable anon here
>>213618836Congratulations, you win nothing.
>>213615398 I've reined my Charlotteposting as of lately, and yet, it still manages to evoke scorn among the ranks of /film/...

>>213618963Just look at how much of this threadโs discussion is about interracial sex, Charlotte is unfortunately an excuse for BBCfags to talk about their fetish under the guise of moral consternation about it.
One day the Charlotte fans will be free.

Is making black and white films in 2025 pretentious?
>>213620465Stop spamming this BBC receptacle.
>>213620740His hands were HUGE
Just walked for 90 minutes, almost fell into an uncovered manhole, i get back and you guys haven't said anything interesting, wtf.
>>213620986Wow, so unbelievable, right?
>>213621023It's particularly bad this time.
consider watching The Desert of the Tartarts (1976) and also reading the book
>>213621131It's the same as usual.
>>213620843Sarah Gadon is an aryan trader princess.
>>213621168This; the IQ drop from waifufags took /film/ from 80 IQ to the caveman era (-80 IQ).

>>213621540Joelle Coeur was hot as fuck.
>>213621360I'll watch every Zurlini, chronologically.
Just got a 15 minute timeout for "spamming" for making that Quincypost. Janny must have thought I was Gadonfag. I suspect my ass is about to get sent flying for the next 3 days. It's Montpetover!
>>213621760The mods are extremely active on SOME /film/ threads, others they just completely ignore. It's strange.
>>213621193I need a parachute to get to your level.
>>213620668Since you mentioned the p-word, I firmly believe that despite the popular opinion contrary to mine, preferring popular pictures over arthouse & classic pictures is pretentious.
Pretentiousness, as I understand it, is asserting to something a higher value than the actual substance of it. Arthouse can more safely do what big budget pictures usually can't, which is respecting the intelligence of the audience. Arthouse has more intellectual substance, but it requires audience contemplation. Naturally this filters out most audiences who don't intimately care of the art form and are just there to be entertained.
Now wouldn't holding something of lower intellectual substance at a higher value than something of higher intellectual substance be pretentious?
>>213620740Somecock?

>>213622045You got banned for announcing reports, idiot. Meds now.
>>213622045The average IQ here is not -80, but -8,000
>>213621760>I suspect my ass is about to get sent flying for the next 3 daysPlease don't make promises you can't keep.
>>213622014All you do is whine like a little bitch.
>>213622045I believe this.
>>213622091He didn't even announce shit, he just talked about what he had done previously and got instabanned (like in half a minute) in the most sus way possible. Why won't you just accept it bro... do I have to bring back the post where you said "I have a new system to bake threads! I will post a picture of a Yugioh card and that will mean that a bake is incoming, and if an anon tries to post another card to counterbake he will get banned for pretending to be a part of 4chan staff". There are also other instances of your strange "post disappearing magic" working in here.
>>213622241All I do is make you uncomfortable. You're also so unoriginal that you and friends collectively have stolen all of my swag... hell, I was the one that introduced the word "whine" in here. Last night I was watching people talking about monke... y'all wack.
>>213622396You aren't original in any way whatsoever, CRA. Get real.
>>213622235Wow, I'm still here. God Mods spared me where 'Ski and 'Don got sent flying, I guess. I feel like one of the survivors of a Jigsaw trap. I have a new zeal for life after my scrape with death. I'll never funpost again. Thank you moddies for the life lesson. I'll be a good boy.
>>213622368>He didn't even announce shit, he just talked about what he had done previouslyCope. The act of announcing makes no reference to timing.
>>213622447My disappointment is immeasurable.
>>213622417You have no identity except hating your life lol. Keep copying me.
We're all immeasurable here.
>>213622476I will make an announcement to the past, then. Sweet.

what the fuck is this? where is the 4k remaster?
>>213622447My ass is still rooted on terra firma. I'm busy watching the Schraderian kinographone Hardcore (1979).
Sorry, the ghost of Joan was really giving me hell after ballet practice today for some reason.
Watched 2001 again. Kinda fascinated by how there's no dissolves after the black thing appears for the first time (unless you include intertitles). Kinda curious what he meant by that.
>>213625033Is someone just about to mass leak Venice titles or what? Koberidze is technically a Locarno premiรจre I think, but he is in some secondary Venice lineup too if I am not mistaken. Or was it TIFF?
1957, 1962, 1973, 1995, 1997, 1999 - years with the most kinos
1943, 1976, 1996, 2005, 2008 - years with the least kinos
2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024 - years with no kinos
It is middle of summer heat and I have not showered in almost a week and I reek so bad that my cat took a good whiff of my armpit and in five minutes this nigga knocked the fuck out
Tried watching 2001 in theaters once (re-release). Stayed up all night prior and fell asleep probably 45 minutes in. Woke up to blackness and a vague feeling that something went terribly wrong during the production of Fear and Desire.
>>213625551'76 had an abundance of kinos

>>213618293Okinawa was the best part.
She was a janny, Isabelle?
Watched 2001 and I stood up and pointed at the screen and clapping, mouth agape when the visual metaphor happened. What does the heckin monolith mean? It's so frickin esoteric and smart and woah my mind is being blown dude its like a psychedelic experience like when you do le drugs, which I do btw. It's so sick how every shot is meticulously choreographed, you can almost feel the homicidal rage every crew member must have felt towards that autistic freak. No I wasn't awake for most of it but it's on all the lists of greatest films which means I like it!
Okinawa Slappy they called him.
Chopinawa Socky they called him.
Evening Gadonbros
Seen any Sarah Gadon kinos lately
>>213623658I sincerely apologize then.
>the only good movie this year so far
The first time in YEARS I don't do my due diligence to check that I'm watching something with the correct color grade/aspect ratio/etc. and it's Memories of Murder. LOOK HOW FUCKING GREEN IT IS. WHY WOULD YOU DO THIS TO THE MOVIE
>>213627396Just wait until Sarah Gadon's new film next month

>>213627560Columbus was okay but now Kogonada is just adapting Live Laugh Love posters into movies
>>213627650Yeah, and Friedkin wanted to desaturate the French Connection, and Wong Kar Wai wanted to make In The Mood For Love orange. Directors love to come back decades later and fuck with the grade of their films. Doesn't make it a good thing at all.

>>213626283I watched 2001 when I was 13 and didn't get filtered. Tiktok has rotted your brain.
>>213628253I think i was about that age the first and only time i watched it too.

>>213628253I went alone to the movie theater to see 2001 15 years ago. It was near midnight and I was in high school still. So this was a big deal to go out that late like that.
They straight up played the bluray of the film projected onto the theater screen lmao but to this day it is my personal favorite theater experience. Sometimes the experience of the film is also about actually going somewhere to see it. And the ambience of before and after the screening. I donโt know if the younger generation understands
>>213628332Sounds cozy. Idgaf what some of these cocksuckers on here think, a good film is a good film and 2001 is great.
2001 would be better with the chariots of fire music
2001 is greater than 2000

Not sure about the 3rd, Sorogoyen makes some good flicks but too much normie shit as well, and Almodovar is a psyop for foreigners. Would be Erice, I guess, but he is retired now.
>>213633718Nothing; in fact, I already do so, but /alt/ was fun. The /film/ name has been desecrated so much that it ends up being annoying looking at this server and comparing it to how real /film/ used to be.
Also, you fags complain that nobody talks about films here but everytime i do i get 0 to 1 replies, the previous thread another example, two posts about two films and the only reply was to only one of the posts and a guy just telling me to watch another film. You actually only want to talk about the same 50 films/filmmakers if even that high a number, always Bresson Tarkovsky Bergman Godard, everytime someone goes out of "le canon" that person gets no engagement. So fuck you crying fags that keep complaining nobody talks about films here.
>>213633951I would imagine most people would just post on both and there would be no real divide.
>>213633936>Would be Erice, I guess, but he is retired nowHe didn't say working, he said alive.
>>213633772None, all the great ones died.
>>213633951>but /alt/ was funNo it wasn't. It was on life support for a few hours with barely anything happening, then it got some attention leading it to overtake the /film/ thread which had devolved into the kind of squabbling you're engaging in here, then it devolved into the aforementioned kind of squabbling when everyone left the /film/ thread and then it got nuked, leading everyone back to /film/. Being an attention whore who rationalizes it as being about how much you hate attention whoring is still attention whoring.

>>213621918 to deaf ears.
PS. I baked this thread. What's your contribution?
>>213636409I think it only has theatrical release in the USA
>>213621918>Pretentiousness, as I understand it, is asserting to something a higher value than the actual substance of it.You understand incorrectly. It's not the act of ascribing a higher value to something than its true substance, it's the quality of something which ascribes to ITSELF a higher value etc. Think 'pretending to the throne'.
People are described as 'pretentious' because they watch eg arthouse films because of the perception that they falsely believe doing so is some mark of distinction.
Someone who prefers cineplex summer-blockbuster slop might well be pretentious if they falsely believe that preference marks them as superior, but I don't know that that's a very common perception.

Honestly, I can't even bitch on the off chance I make an effortpost and it gets no replies. I already get a steady stream of (You)s so it balances itself out.
>>213636356I think the relentless toe bashing scared off Charlibro.
>>213636673I think that's part of why one became Harembro, but the other one (who was posting pretty recently) defends her feet.
>>213636782>the other one (who was posting pretty recently) defends her feet.I'd be disappointed if he didn't defend them. That *is* his waifu after all.
The skateboarding incident in question before anyone asks:
I took my brand new skateboard for a spin but I accidentally pop shoved-it in my ass. It was all hands on deck when they rolled me into the ER.
>>213636557Makes sense. I'm only going off of one definition of the word. I guess you could say a pretentious picture is one that insists upon itself. Art is one-way communication anyways. How enjoyable a piece of art is to someone relies on their individual ability to receive the information.
Have we met befooooorrrrreeeee
>>213636813Nah. Waifu or no, those feet are indefensible.
Watched A Real Pain. The 'tration camp scenes in Poland made me feel particularly philosemetic. Plus as someone that has traveled through Europe with a tour group before, the train scenes were all too accurate.

for Portugal the absolute goat is obviously Manoel de Oliveira, he is the central figure of Portuguese film history, he made his last feature length film in 2012 when he was around 103 years old (he died at 106)
some other highlight directors include Miguel Gomes, Joรฃo Cรฉsar Monteiro and Pedro Costa
>>213627396what did you like about it? i heard some buzz about it but haven't watched it yet

fucking Armond man lmao
IT IS MAN that we need. A look caught with surprise can be sublime." That's Robert Bresson quoted in Babette Mangolte's The Models of Pickpocket (showing at Anthology Film Archives), a documentary exploring the mystery of Bresson's art by interviewing the performers of his 1959 film Pickpocket 43 years later. Mangolte investigates the processes that made Bresson's films distinctive, but her inquiry into the phenomenon of film acting is a pop-art coup. It dovetails with Bernie Mac's remarkable performance in Mr. 3000.
Comic-turned-actor Mac intuitively and instructively reveals a mutual sensitivity to the dilemma of a public figure fighting for his place in history. With Pickpocket, Bresson gave its principal actors Pierre Leymarie, Marika Green and Martin Lasalle a form of immortality. First called "interpreters," then "models," they all feel that their lives were changed by working with "Monsieur Bresson." Leymarie carries the memory into his work as a genetics researcher, Green became a professional actress and Lasalle pursued various career options as actor, painter, gardener, always haunted by Bresson's influence. Each performer admits how they "gave" themselves to Bresson. Years later they understood his dictum, "When the model is free of all intentionality, his expressiveness is adequate for the filmmaker." This is not just a high-art command; one gorges on the honest and authentic humor of Mac's characterization.
>>213644608Mr. 3000 is such a robust comedy that when you realize it also has depth, it nearly becomes an embarrassment of riches. Mac plays Stan Ross, #21 of the Milwaukee Brewers, who gets his 3000th hit, qualifying him for the baseball Hall of Fame, then quits the team. He's not exhausted, just selfishโand that selfishness is a result of his career-long, goal-oriented struggle. To achieve eminence, Ross has pushed against all obstacles of competition that are routine in an athlete's life, that men know especially well, that black men experience as part of society's racist tradition. Ross doesn't give a damn what anybody else thinks about his decision to retire; he's fully aware that he has earned respect if not likability.
What makes Ross the finest characterization on screen this year (comparable to Bresson's realness) is that Mr. 3000 represents a hell of a balancing act. He's an existential American man going through psychological and political slapstick, which Bernie Mac makes absolutely credible. Unlike the neo-W.C. Fields irascibility Mac shows on his Fox tv series, Ross is wound too tight to warm up to anyone. "I'm a certified immortal! And there ain't nothin' y'all sons of bitches can do about it!" he declares. This boast goes to disgruntled fans and peeved sports writers who think Ross gets his comeuppance when he has to return to the team due to a counting error. Though short of his goal, Ross doesn't immediately change his habits, because Mr. 3000 isn't pabulum like Seabiscuit, where a sports hero turns sweet. This characterization digs down into the core of masculine pride that makes people simultaneously admire and resent outstanding athletes.

Me and my _wife_ loved ลปuลawski's Szamanka after watching several times Posession.
Dude perfectly captures sexual hysteria mixed with esoteric stuff. Loved Silver Globe too. Going to watch That Most Important Thing: Love next.
Any other recommendation about films that have sexual ritualistic esoteric insane etc. Already watched:
- All the Colors of the Dark
- The Love Witch

storaro is my least favorite ""great"" lenser what the fuck is this forced shit
>>213645291would you say it's "dishonest"?
>>213645376distracting, taking away from direction, vain
>>213643844I don't even know if I have the energy to watch this. An eight hour Alien story? When the original film is less than two? How egotistical, for the showrunner to think that the story he has to tell could possibly necessitate THAT much time to deliver. Goodness, I miss the old broadcast television-type miniseries where it'd be two 90 minute episodes. The streaming era has just completely obliterated any sensible restrictions on storytelling. Constraint is a good thing in art. Time slots kept indulgence at bay. Now nobody has to "kill their darlings", the most basic writing advice of all. I tried to watch the latest Stranger Things for Winona but I couldn't get through it, the season finale was 2 hours and 30 minutes long. All this streaming crap calls to my mind a fat, waterlogged, bloated corpse floating in a river.

>>213645902Almendros is a no-bullshitter.
>The other thing that changed how people thought about location shooting was The Conformist. This was a milestone in the history of production design, in the fullest sense of the word. To my mind, you can speak of pre-Conformist and post-Conformist design. When we did American Gigolo, we worked with the production designer of The Conformist:a man named Ferdinando Scarfiotti. He had begun working with Luchino Visconti on a lot of theater work, and they did Death in Venice together. When they brought in Vittorio Storaro on The Conformist to do the cinematography, they had that troikaโin my opinion, one of the most incredible visual troikas in the history of movies.
>The Conformist was a synthesis of Godardโs self-consciousness and the pictorialism of Visconti and Antonioni. What Bertolucci with Scarfiotti and Storaro did was combine the visually rich Italian tradition with the French intellectual tradition. After The Conformist, the three went on to make Last Tango in Paris. And after Scarfiotti did American Gigolo, we did Cat People together. We became friends, and heโs someone whose visual style has transformed me.
>>213647109>When Jean-Louis Trintignant goes to the mental hospital to visit his father, it looks nothing like a mental hospitalโitโs more like a visual idea of a mental hospital. And this film is full of visual ideas. Thereโs a scene with all these walnuts on a table. I once asked Ferdinando why the table is covered with walnuts, and he just responded: โI thought it looked good.โ Itโs a visual idea, one that you canโt explain with words.>Iโll give an example from American Gigolo. The opening scene takes place in a house on the beach. We had two scenes there: the opening scene where Richard Gere talks to Nina Van Pallandt, and then a later scene where they go out and walk on the beach. Ferdinando couldnโt find a location he liked. Iโd say: โBut there must be 50 beach houses up in Malibu. Just choose one!โ Finally one day he came in and said heโd found something. The house heโd found hadnโt been lived in yet. So he told me to ignore the room, because he was planning on putting up walls everywhere.>When you see Gere walk in the house, itโs a space created as if it were in a set. Everything in that sceneโwith the exception of the oceanโwas not there. Everything was built. The carpet and the walls and the paintings and the props. And that was the mentality that The Conformist brought to the movies, that a realistic location is in fact like a set.
>>213647109Based Scarfiotti enjoyer, Cat People confirmed /film/ (as though there was ever doubt).
>>213647191>The impact of Scarfiotti in American Gigolo went much further than the films he did. Michael Mann loved the look of the film, and when he was doing a film called Thief, he tried to hire Ferdinando. Then when Mann went on to do Miami Vice, he took all those lessons that he had gotten from Ferdinando. That notion of Miami Vice comes right from American Gigoloโwhich comes straight from Scarfiotti.>The freedom of Scarfiottiโs production design is still with us today. If you watch CSI or any number of these shows, you get very unrealistic setsโodd colors coming into rooms. Who would have seen a police department office like one of these rooms you see? That was the freedom that The Conformist brought to set design, location scouting, and beyond.

So we have The Conformist to blame. Fucking commies.

>Rosanna Arquette begged director Martin Scorsese to use a foot double for a scene where she had to be shown explicitly barefoot due to her dissatisfaction of their condition (which she described as 'dancer's feet') at the time. Scorsese initially wanted her to just go ahead and do it, but agreed that maybe it would be best upon her showing them to him at his request. Arquette was eternally grateful for this, and recalled the story at her salute to him when he received his AFI Lifetime Achievement Award.
>>213648272Rosanna Arquette played Sarah Gadon's mother you know.

Is there really no way to get rid of the 'donjeet?
>>2136491111941, Germany is about to get in war with US and the movie follows a veteran pilot of WW1 who is now a high ranking general in charge of a technical department of Luftwaffe. There is a subplot about sabotage and why the new bombers are killing pilots, but mostly its about the main character who is completely disillusioned with Reich and is sick of war. Movie shows how higher class acted during the still early years of war, and in that regard it's a very cozy movie, with lush scenes of dinners, singing, dancing and various conversations.
Terrific acting by the leading role and some very pretty women in the movie as well. Recommended
>>213649265Cool, I might check it out. I love me some old time historical films.

>>213648703Can't believe the people here did that to her.
>>213650449Pretty good bit desu.
>>213645291I've read online that 18-year-old Sofia Coppola ghost-directed this segment, and that's partly why it sucks. It was basically a covert way for Francis to teach his daughter how to direct.
>>213650449I would've done way worse.
I have advanced enough in my /film/ journey that I think I need to reappraise almost every film i've watched. All my ratings are inaccurate now.
>>213650849I feel ya, there's so much stuff i watched in the first three years of my cinephilia that i desperately need to rewatch.
>>213650523She co-wrote the segment, that's why it sucks. As for direction she most likely just sat beside Francis and listened.
>>213650849I've been there. I started rerating everything, but never finished, and now I feel I already need to do it again. So I'm just leaving the ratings as they are now and I'll just rerate a single film if I either rewatch it or really question my rating when I stumble upon it again
>>213651072The remake with Romy Schneider is better.
>>213651072Why was the author talking about Drew Barrymore?
>>213650967I probably only need to do a rerate once. I fell for a lot of babby's first arthouse early on, and there are also many where I was embarrassingly filtered. I'll probably go through the 'boxd later in the year. This is why I don't write reviews too.
>>213650523ghost directed? isn't she in the credits? anyways, yeah, she wrote it
it sucks but she was also 18 years old and was also harassed non stop by the whole world for The Godfather 3 sucking which wasn't her fault at all
she wasn't gonna be in the film at all until Winona quit cause of healthy issues and she only learned she was gonna have to play Mary the very same day she had to shoot her first scene

On that note, I highly recommend this magazine interview he did in 2018. It's absolutely bizarre and very, very entertaining. His digression about the Beatles/Ringo is hysterical, and somehow not even the funniest part.

Any of u brainlets know a movie around 2002 or 2003 about some teenagers or whatever and this raoul duke type that do sheaningans with them? It felt like a korine or larry clark type of movie but it was someone else. Some tvirgin streamed it once and i forgot the name
