First for Dreyer = theater

>"I think the modern young people are cunts because they can't appreciate being alone"
Was Andrei right?
Lucas Powell
Has anyone else seen this one? I couldn't find any torrents (or even legit ways to buy it) so I had to rip it off some russian streaming website. I found english subs but it seems like they passed through google translate or something.
Still, I thought it was real good
Carter Miller
Cooper Peterson
it's on youtube (but no subtitles)
It's very good and the best thing Germanika has ever done (she's not a bad director, but she fell off hard after her TV-series Ribbons Of May)
Xavier Gomez
I've seen a bit of it, thought it was shitty and boring fap fuel. I don't understand why people would seek it out, is it because of the edgy name?
Landon Brooks
>boring
the single worst non-critism the pleb can spout
Jayden Rodriguez
t. coombrain
Nathan Adams
is that a IRL Kame House?
John Jones
I wonder if that's because pretentious shit is typically unwatchably boring.
Aaron Reyes
>pretentious
Usually the term used by people who did not get certain film and can't explain why they did not like it.
Alexander Cooper
Watched El Sur. I thought this was some cunny poster's joke, but no, this is a great film. Thanks for the rec guys.
Benjamin Green
The Spirit of the Beehive is superior
David Sullivan
>pretentious
a close runner up for worst non-critism the pleb can spout
Lincoln Moore
yeah it's really fucking good, I want to watch El sol del membrillo but the one on rutracker has barely any seeds.
Gavin Perry
What's your opinion on this film?
Benjamin Stewart
kino
Eli Gray
>A Mnvroluus
who?
Sebastian Campbell
Based
Robert Bell
Thoughts?
Mason Baker
Joan of Arc is about as divorced from theatre as a film can get!
Luke Clark
>tfw we aren't getting a sequel to the greatest sports film ever made
Robert Anderson
This is mostly about his post Vampyr films. That being said Rivette's and Bresson's Joan films are much better than Dreyer's.
Isaac Perry
Better than the original
Jaxson Moore
What movie is this from? Someone posted it in a thread last night.
Ayden Turner
Yes.
Colton Gutierrez
Svankmajer’s Alice, it looks like
Connor Sanders
thanks
Isaiah Brooks
I've watched the Eternity And a Day and The Travelling Players. What Theodoros Angelopoulos film should I watch next?
Wyatt Hughes
is he based or overrated?
Colton Wright
He's both overrated and underrated. But most of all he's based
Christian Roberts
Is Millennium Actress good? I just downloaded it but I dont want to waste my time watching anime. Should I?
Lucas Lee
‘ate Sono
‘ate Koreeda
‘ate Miike
luv Mizoguchi
luv Kurosawa
luv Oshima
Simple as.
Chase Hernandez
Elijah Brooks
what about Ozu?
Alexander Martinez
I love Bresson's but this is simply not true.
Chase Ward
Is there a more kino death than own your very own birthday?
Eli Ross
Landscape in the Mist. Did you like The Travelling Players and Eternity and a Day?
Bentley Harris
It is. Bresson dabs on Dreyer.
Elijah Nguyen
Imagine disregarding an entire medium and calling yourself an appreciator of art
Eli Wood
>he watches anime
Kys weeb
Robert Wright
Seethe more pretentious faggot, you're the reason no one takes arthouse fans seriously
Zachary Jenkins
>most anime is bad, therefore anyone who watches any anime has shit taste
Levi Johnson
Tell me why should I watch it? Are there enough Ozu and Setsuko Hara reference to make it worth?
Nathan Wright
>an entire medium
Being made in a specific country doesn't make it a separate medium from animation kek
Connor Bailey
>you're the reason no one takes arthouse fans seriously
Lmao, arthouse is not a genre and the definition is quite vague. The term you are looking for is probably a cinephile.
You can fuck off with your creepy, melodramatic, retarded weeb shit. Fucking faggot.
Correct
John Rodriguez
Zack Snyder should be as respected as many of the directors mentioned in this thread.
Caleb Johnson
>Zack Snyder should be as respected as many of the directors mentioned in this thread.
okay, I'll bite. exactly why should he be?
Blake Sanchez
Not watching animation because it's from a particular country is just as retarded.
Nathaniel Jackson
Ignore the retards in this thread. If you want to see editing used creatively, pushing the boundaries of how it can be utilised then watch millennium actress or any satoshi kon film for that matter.
Chase Thompson
Chiaki Konaka should be as respected as many of the directors mentioned in this thread.
Dylan Edwards
just saw My Winnipeg yesterday and loved it
Nathan Hughes
I have seen some animations suggested by different people here, but Millennium Actress is more /film/ related because of the references made. I just want to know what others think about it.
Grayson James
He is greatest visual storyteller living today with every frame seeped in symbolism that people are still figuring out today. If you're a brainlet you wouldn't get it.
Levi Bell
Personally man there are probably more references but Kon is a very different filmmaker from ozu. If you're a fan and looking for something similar you won't get it.
You watch kon for his style of visual storytelling and his famous creative editing.
Xavier Lopez
yeah, this is exactly the type of response I figured I'd get. all hyperbolic posturing and no substance. care to try again? please explain why Zack Snyder "is greatest visual storyteller living today."
Adrian Morgan
Anyone ever watch Affliction? I've made a couple threads that have gotten zero replies and never see it discussed. A lot of people see it as anti-men which is maybe a simplistic view, but it's an excellent film
Jonathan Gray
Also want to add one more. The main characters movie career is supposed to somewhat parallel setsuko hara(and it's more about her career than Ozu himself). A more detailed read can be found here.
Angel Sanders
The first 2/3 of the movie are really weak but damm the ending hits you hard.
Aiden Howard
It's my favorite Kon movie so yes, it's a 10/10 in my watch.
Ethan Perry
Does he have any symbolism that isn't "it looks like this famous christian painting"?
James Jackson
He also died 2 years after his mom, whit whom he lived for 60 years in the same house.
Connor Ross
>that black athlete training and eating alone
poor lad
David Young
That’s incredibly based
Caleb Robinson
El Sur was supposed to be a mini-series, but it got canned right away so it was completed only the 2/3 of it. That's why the ending is so eeire. It's an incompleted story.
Jace Perry
I have watched some animations suggested in this thread, one of them was Perfect Blue and I will only say that at least I didnt feel it was a waste of time like other animations I have seen before. I'm mostly interested in this film because of Setsuko Hara.
I will watch it then.
Robert Sullivan
Comes down to personal preference

Adrian Hall
Here we have a couple of brainlets upset they couldn't notice 1/10th of the symbolism in his films.
Ayden Morgan
>He directed a japanese version of The Shadow Over Innsmouth
>youtube.com
oh fuck never knew that, and he loves Babymetal group to even name his blog like they.
>tripleaxel.cocolog-nifty.com
Eli Rodriguez
I'm a big pleb and want to take the opportunity that being quarantined has given me to broaden my horizons in regards to movies, please recommend me something to watch, I'm open to anything
William Sullivan
Man Bites Dog
Jeremiah Martin
Mason Bennett
so symbolism is your reason? really?
