Thoughts on Dersu Uzala?

It's good

The Shop on Main Street
Ikarie XB 1
Dragon’s Return
Vláčil - all of his films are worth watching, not sure how many of them are available with English subs. His 60s output should be, Marketa Lazarova, Adelheid, The White Dove, Shadows of a Hot Summer and Valley of the Bees are amazing.
Menzel - Closely Watched Trains, Capricious Summer, Larks on a String, Cutting It Short
Herz - The Cremator, Morgiana, Beauty and the Beast
Uher - The Sun in a Net, Miraculous Virgin, If I Had a Gun
Kachyňa - Ucho (The Ear), The Little Mermaid, Carriage to Vienna, Long Live the Republic
Zeman - everything, The Fabulous Baron Munchausen and Invention for Destruction are a good start
Jireš - The Joke, Křik (The Cry)
Jakubisko - Birds, Orphans and Fools, The Millennial Bee (TV version), The Deserter and the Nomads
Lipský - everything is good, Happy End, Lemonade Joe and Marecek, Pass Me the Pen! are the best probably
Hanák - Pictures of the Old World, Rose Tinted Dreams
Vávra - Witchhammer, Krakatit
Němec - Diamonds of the Night, A Report on the Party and the Guests
Krejčík - Higher Principle
Juráček - Case for a Rookie Hangman, Joseph Kilian
Forman - Loves of a Blonde, The Firemans Ball
Passer - Intimate Lighting
Máša - Hotel for Strangers, Courage for Every Day
Schorm - The Return of the Prodigal Son

>Animation, puppetry
Trnka - Ruka (The Hand), A Midsummer Night’s Dream
Švankmajer - everything, cool short films and also features
Barta - The Pied Piper

Not all of these are New Wave but i dont really have the time to distinguish all of them right now. Kachyňa, Lipský, Vávra, Vláčil and Švankmajer are generally not considered to be a part of New Wave despite being made at the same time as others.

You can find some of those films on rutracker and if you dont find them then try uloz.to , just write czech/slovak titles

Righteous thanks user

has anyone see La Maman et la Putain and is it worth 3 hours of my quarantime?

cringe pseud thread

You are welcome
Yes, it's very good. His other film My Little Loves is also really good.

>is it worth 3 hours of my quarantime?
yes

>tfw found out that Zulawski was Jewish just the other day

No wonder I never liked his movies.

This was fucking phenomenal. Did not expect it to be this good at all.
Going to watch Baron Munchausen these days, anything else by Gilliam that's a "must-see"?

Brazil is his only good film sadly, it's a masterpiece

Anyone seen any of the DAU stuff yet?
First two films were just released online:

I liked 12 Monkeys too, though it's been a long time since I've seen it.

Baron Munchausen from Zeman is much much better. The Very Same Munchhausen, the Russian one is also better.
>just
They have been on torrents for a few days

Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas is my personal favorite. 12 Monkeys and Fisher King are pretty good, and so are his Monty Python films. I haven't watched his entire filmography but the only one I disliked so far was The Man Who Killed Don Quixote.

Yeah, I'd say a few days is just out

>One friend recalls the 16-year-old Ilya approaching strange women, on a dare or a bet, and saying in his soft voice, "Come suck me off in the bathroom." (It somehow sounds even worse in Russian.) And they would. Some of them, anyway. Khrzhanovsky hit on everyone. It cost him friendships. But it also got him laid, again and again. "His main driving force in life is crippling, animal lust," one Moscow friend says. To his male peers, Khrzhanovsky's sex appeal seemed incomprehensible, a cosmic joke: He was a slight and homely Jewish boy, given to wearing terrible crushed-velvet jackets. Round glasses dominated his round baby face; you could draw a decent likeness of him using nothing but circles. It was obvious, though, that Khrzhanovsky possessed an unruly magnetism.
Based.

starting in 5 minutse at cytu dot be/r/tv4c
The Fire Within (1963) Louis Malle

Alcoholic Alain Leroy, suffering from depression, undergoes rehabilitation at a clinic in Versailles. Feeling suicidal, he visits his pals in Paris one final time, trying to find meaning in life.

I enjoy most of Gilliam's work. the only one I found insufferable was Tideland. Brazil and Munchausen are his best. Parnassus was a real treat, given the tragic events of its production, I was quite taken by the different actors in the Heath Ledger role. Plus, you can never go wrong with Tom Waits. Quixote was splendid fun but the final scene could have done with a different take or a reshoot.

What do you think of Oliver Stone's 90s aesthetic?

I dug the look if this and U-Turn. Basically, Stone doing grindhouse before Tarantino and Rodriguez shit the bed.

WHERE THE FUCK IS THE GODDAMN SATANTANGO RIP WHERE THE FUCK IS THAT SHIT

I'm looking for more films like pic related. I think that First Blood is shot well, has a story with meaning underneath its violence and treads the lines between action, thriller and thoughtfulness pretty much perfectly. Any recommendations?

Amazing list, but if you had to boil it down to the best ones or even your personal favorites which few would you pick.

What about Jabberwocky? I never see it mentioned anywhere. But then again, it guess it is pretty forgettable. I only remember that the creature effects for the Jabberwocky were kinda cool.

Honestly, Gilliam's humor never really did it for me. I enjoy the visuals and the creative ideas in his movies but the comedy mostly falls flat (Except for Fear and Loathing). I just wish he would have done more serious movie, but then again, he is a Python and people expect comedy from him.

Maybe I’m the only one but I find Gilliams films exhausting. Fear and Loathing is great but everything else I’ve seen has great visuals but no thrust in its narrative or characters.

Just watched this, it's very good, especially the dinner party scene

this is a terrible movie, Stone is a hack

Landscape in the Mist was pretty amazing so if youre looking for something to add to your list add that and look out for the director's other works

Rolling Thunder (1977)

Jabberwocky is, without exaggeration, the worst film I've seen in the last 5 years. It was neither funny nor suspenseful, the visual effects for the monster were kinda cool but what's the point when it shows up for 2 minuets in a film that is 80 minutes too long. It felt like someone watched The Holy Grail and decided to make their own but with zero memorable scenes.

Thank you very much, it seems amazing.
Silly question - my mother and I love watching action movies together (she hates arthouse and 'slow' stuff though) - would this be a movie we could enjoy together or am I better off watching it alone some day?
