remove baumbach and korine

add Coctéau, Vinterberg and Noé

if fantasizing about hitting this man in the jaw is homophobic then sign me up for an american gay conversion camp.

>add Coctéau, Vinterberg and Noé
None of them are American

Yes, very American directors.

people who say arthouse are 100% homosexual

Well, you just did. Nice coming out, homo

Is this what my general has come to? A year ago I created this general with the mindset of creating a comfy thread. I haven't been in this general for around that long as well. Have you guys been and what did I miss? Is it still a comfy thread?

>the cinephiles holy grail
Based on what I’m seeing here I’d say it’s probably not very good. It’s just kind of hitting all the indulgent cliches like its in French, 70’s look, guy looks nervous— scratching his face looks a character study where he’s a criminal. I don’t know I think it kind of looks a little silly. What’s so good about it? Well it’s probably some sort of humanistic thing where you’re rooting for him or relate to him and the completion of his journey is analogous to the human condition or something in some big dramatic mind virus. It’s deception, it’s dishonest. Drama is a mind virus that has to be concentrated and synthesized out through the respect of the audiences intuitive efforts. If you’re just blasting them with this sort of emotionally bitter narrative it’s like a poison, these directors are tipping the scales of the power dynamic between creator and viewer, it’s a very delicate balance. It’s demoralizing when the creator emotionally abuses his viewer

Really good list

I can't be the only one who thinks Shane Carruth is bad. Upstream Color is one of the worst movies I've ever seen. How the fuck am I supposed to take "grubs gave me cancer" seriously

this is a rorschach test

What's bad about it?
What do you mean?

>It’s just kind of hitting all the indulgent cliches like its in French, 70’s look, guy looks nervous
I hope this copypasta

You're not alone. I think his plots that make people feel smart for reading fan theories afterward appeals a lot to the middlebrow crowd. Kinda like an arthouse Nolan.

>no Wes Anderson
shit list

>What do you mean?
It's a series that's very open to interpretation. When I saw it I found it very sophisticated, it questions narrative, it questions style. And feels purposeless at the end, but intended to be so. The way I took it was a desperate search for meaning behind all the characters, but finally leading to nothing. It's one of those films where you can analyze anything though. Watch Le Pont du Nord if you haven't. It's pretty much the same but in a more digestable way.

Thanks. Did you like it?
>Le Pont du Nord
Will check it out.

PTA is unquestionably the best filmmaker from the states today. His 21st century output is extraordinary

I just watched the good the bad and the ugly Yas Forums amazing movie. The relationship between Tuco and Blondie has me on the edge of my seat the entire time and that soundtrack was incredible

>le whimsical Greenaway
No thanks.

>putting Tarantino in the same tier as Snyder
ouch

good one

I like how people shit on PTA yet are incapable of expanding their own opinion beyond he is shit.

Read Balzac to understand Out 1

Which one?

L'histoire des 13
Out 1 isn't an adaptation, not even close. But it's based on the ideas and feel of the secret society those stories are about. Reading that won't make anything obvious, but you'll understand better what Rivette wanted to accomplish.

Thanks. What other Rivette should i watch? He has quite a lot of films.

>What's bad about it?
There's a point where directors get so bogged down with symbolism and trying to appear mysterious that their work ceases to resemble human interaction entirely, and is hard to take seriously.

Good directors know how to use surrealism or symbolism to convey human thoughts or emotions. For example the baby in Eraserhead and the home in Nostalghia might not be subtle, but they give the audience hook to connect to the story on an emotional level.

Meanwhile, everything happening here just looks fucking stupid.

The pig farm, the voyeurism, the couple, and the fucking music production are all such disparate themes that it's as if Carruth just didn't edit it correctly. Doesn't help that it looks like a commercial. For the sake of argument, what if the disorienting direction was intentionally? Does that justify the finished product? No, it makes the entire movie feel like a parody of a student film trying too hard to be deep.

This user was right to call him a filmmaker for fan theories: , although I'd place him below Nolan, who at the very least is capable of conveying ideas to his audience. I'd say he's more in line with J. J. Abrams, where the lack of answers or meaning is the point. Curious as to what the fuck 'Quinoa Valley Rec. Co' actually is? Better speculate on Reddit! Go to hell.

Dolan is absolute trite, the text book definition of pretentions, Pierre Falardeau is a much better french-canadian director.

Celine and Julie Go Boating is my fav. Not a mystery like Out 1 but more whimsical and fantastical while still keeping that intrigue.

I'm not joking. No 21st century filmmaker can match There Will Be Blood, The Master and Phantom Thread with three equally good works
