>isn't this true story a rip off of 1984?

>>8791 (OP)

I enjoyed it yes. Definitely the best Scorsese work in a very long time...

Although it was weird as hell, watching supposed characters from my country speaking in perfect english. I guess that's how germans feel watching old world war 2 films.

>>8791 (OP)

the conclusion undermines the whole film. Sure, that's the book's fault, but they made it worse by ambiguously suggesting Christ spoke to him.

But, the first three quarters of the film is, as you say, excellent viewing

>rip-off of 1984

yawhatnow?

>>9731

The strangest thing for me was not the fact that they were able to speak perfect English, but the fact that they couldn't say one word of Portuguese or Latin properly. Regardless, it was a decent film better than most of the trash of 2016.

>The strangest thing for me was not the fact that they were able to speak perfect English, but the fact that they couldn't say one word of Portuguese or Latin properly.

That's always kind of funny. I tried to think of some other examples (besides Nazis)

All Quiet on the Western Front - Germans in WWI speak English. You could say it makes them more relateable to the American audience who fought on the opposite side of the war

The Silent Star - East German sci-fi with scenes from around the world. A science professor lectures an American classroom in German.

Spaghetti westerns - most everyone looks and speaks Italian

>>4315 (OP)

Why did audiences hate it?

I wanted to see the other five sequels.

Now I won't be?

>>4969

Too Late Blues is an anomaly because it lacks any sense of the 'underground' style he is known for. It's a conventional film. Haven't seen a Child is Waiting.

Faces is good though, if you like the atmospheres he creates. It's not about young people though, so it's definitely not as jazzy.

Read Cassavetes on Cassavetes. It really is great.

>>4970

A Child is Waiting is pretty weak, but the studios tampered with the film in both production and post.

I'm not a huge fan of Cassavetes or his work. His films contain minute amounts of truth but he neevr really gets anything meaningful. Acting and dialogue of course are great. Did anyone else think that Faces is really annoying just because of the people? If you cut out the incessant laughing in the film it would have been 5-10 minutes shorter. The last shot is patrician though.

wtf now i'm really confused

Hack? Cassavetes was a fucking GOD. Love Streams, Woman Under the Influence, Faces, Killing of a Chinese Bookie. Four masterpieces right there alone.

>No mention of Capra

Read "American Vision" by Ray Carney plebs

Trump related: Netflix documentary GET ME ROGER STONE

It's a profile of Stone, his history in politics, his relationship with Trump. It's made by lefties but I still enjoyed it. They portray Stone as morally bankrupt ...which is probably true

Ridley Scott says Alien 5 is not happening. does anyone even care

>I don’t think it will ever see the light of day. There was never a script. Just an idea that evolved from a dozen or so pages. I had to participate as producer, but it didn’t go farther because Fox decided it didn’t want to do it. As far I was concerned, I had already done Prometheus and I was working on Covenant.

>>3552

4 was certainly one of the better ones, I'd rate it higher than 3 and Prometheus at least. Maybe I'm just a sucker for everything Jeunet makes.

>>9563

If you can get past the slightly campy premise of cloning Ripley, it has this French comics sensibility to it. Really cool set design and compositions,and i kinda liked the hybrid baby alien.

>>7881

I will download and watch

>>7881

Well done! First I thought it was 5deep9me but soon it all made sense.

The creativity of this project stands out for me. How did you develop the sand language? Everything looks great, especially some of those giant clouds near the end.

Your accent sounds a bit mid-atlantic .... have you spent time in the states or maybe watched a lot of american movies?

>>7881

would you mind telling us which beach you used? it looks like a nice place.

Have any of you shot footage with a drone? I always think about buying one but I don't know if I'd have enough opportunities to use it. Thoughts on the DJI Phantom?

Otherwise post any cool drone clips you've seen

>>9508

fellow lainanon here, mainly for /lamda/

I never paid attention to lainchan

how true is the ED description

> A site for wannabe hackers into cyberpunk. The owner, kalyx, has no standards - begs for money for his apple shit. Their mods are power tripping asswipe faggots (despite the site claiming they're not).

On this subject where is the dedicated bunker of /film/? When 8ch was hacked I didn't know where to go... Endchan was totally dead for the couple days besides one other anon. I think that 8ch is heading down the shitter and a dedicated backup might not be a bad idea.

>>9511

Kalyx no longer owns it so that's inaccurate.

>>9514

The bunker for /film/ is on Endchan, yes. That doesn't mean I want to go there permanently if 8ch dies. It would be easier to use 8ch.pl since it's built on the same software as 8chan.

>>9494

Yes.

Aurora

The seventh continent

Jeanne Dielman

Out 1

La notte

Le trou

Whispering pages

Vive l'amour

>>9498

Which Aurora? Romania, Lithuania or somewhere else?

>>9499

sorry, the Romanian one, also Sieranevada but I thought Aurora and Death of mr. Lazarescu were better>>9499

Anything intresting going on here

>>9500

Not much it seems.

Have you watched woman in the dunes?

>>9481

What style/genre/country are you currently interested in?

>>9484

I'm not focused on anything specific right now. So I will watch things mentioned on /film/ or elsewhere that strike my interest

I thought about watching more Parajanov, perhaps one of the documentaries about him, but I'm disappointed to discover that 'not one of his films are on BD yet

Is pic related a horror film?

>>9167

Gozu and Tetsuo are a trip. Have you seen Shinya Tsukamoto's more recent horror film Kotoko? Riki-Oh is fun.

>>9168

Pic unrelated. I only saw Tetsuo trilogy by Shinya Tsukamoto.

But, films like Vengeance trilogy, I saw the devil, The Wailing, Audition etc. are welcomed, if you want to recommend.

>>9168

>Have you seen Shinya Tsukamoto's more recent horror film Kotoko?

Didn't knew that one, thanks for the info, it's on the list now

>>9170

So does half of Miike's movies count? Ichi the Killer is a must and his collaboration with Park Chan Wook was decent, 3 Extremes was called i think, haven't seen it sober thou

Thanks, I already started watching some works from Fassbinder. Do you have anything from Kluge to suggest? What about Haro Senft, is he good?

I haven't seen it yet, but i have been recommended Willi Tobler by Kluge, looks really interesting as well

>>4698

I think Yesterday Girl is another important one from Alexander Kluge. It's more of a political film, somewhat like The Tin Drum.

I don't know much about Haro Senft unfortunately.

New German Cinema featured on BBC

This might help anyone get started with it

>>9431

No, it's not that. I said it was foreign, probably eastern european or something. That movie is pretty harsh by american standards, but I am talking FULL nudity.

I saw a webm of it on Librechan before it went down. Even for a foreign movie, that's pushing the boundaries.

>>9436

Yep, that's it. I did not expect it to be on YouTube, what the fuck.

Fucking French make me sick, I don't how the fuck they get away with shit like this, though even this is pushing it. Out of context, it looks like a clip from an actual CP or snuff film.

Just, what the fuck is wrong with France. You could easily do that scene without showing anything.

>>9447

I have not watched the whole movie but I can't imagine how that would fit with the rest of it

>>9449

How did you find out about it then?

Cross of Iron

>>9378

Thanks, I'll check that out. Could you recommend me more German movies about this?

>>9379

I already know that, but thanks anyway.

Tou might like Die Brücke aka The Bridge (1959)
