Cairo Station is recommended by me

But your question is pretty broad. A lot of the posts on this board could fit your criteria. It depends what you like watching.

Hollywood knows how to make good films

"Look Who's Back"

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Look_Who%27s_Back_(film)

This is a funny take on Hitler. Worth a watch.

I can recommend a few cool European films that tell about human destinies in different formats. I think you can recognize a few films because they are famous. I like films https://samplius.com/free-essay-examples/film-analysis/ that make me think about my life and my actions. Life films always provoke a storm of emotions and non-standard reactions

*Because of a thread in 4chan's /lit/. Now i recall better.

So instead of just browsing the board like a normal person you hand picked multiple threads and bumped them without discretion because you felt the need of establishing yourself.

I mean I knew that as 4chan became Reddit, 8chan would eventually become 4chan but I never thought it would be this bad. Oh well.

>>13533

Too bad you missed out. If you check /tv/ there's a link to /film/ right under the post box.

pretty shit but the music was great and somehow it was the best looking movie to come out of serbia at the time

Art is well suited for self-development. She decided to take a course https://edupro.cc/subjects/fine-arts/ to develop.

I mean, don't just make a decision from what I said. make sure you carefully consider both options and try to see how each would pan out over the years compared with what your desires in life are. I'm just giving you some food for thought, it's what I would do. give yourself a lot of time to mull it over

>>7689

I like what one person said in that /tv/ thread

> Few things annoy me more than movies where there is a father depicted as an asshole because he's providing his son with a way while the son wants to be a flaky artist dreamer.

This trope might make a good story but I agree it's unrealistic - poor life advice. I'd rather see people with different occupational backgrounds making films. If everyone is a starving bohemian artist you'll see the same sort of ideas over and over.

Do not pursue film unless your dads spielberg. Go buy a camera, teach yourself to write and network with other people in your city. If you can make enough noise with a low budget approach, you'll get noticed a la Shane Carruth.

Unless this is something you just have to get out of your system and if that's the case, maybe your dad will hire you back in five years when you're broke and haven't done anything.

Just kill yourself and save me the trouble of making your life choices for you.

I am very interested in ethical situations in specific conditions. It could be a school or university or a business model. I recently read a cool text https://paperap.com/paper-on-enron-the-smartest-guys-in-the-room/ which has a lot of options for the development of events. A business partnership is a series of disputes and compromises. I think that controversy gives rise to truth and this is a fact. This is reminiscent of the old meetings of enterprise shareholders who argue about the allocation of investments. A person has a choice, and we empathize with this choice, but we always represent our interests. Students studying marketing or business are required to read this text.

how about Love?

I don't think it was as good as Irreversible or I Stand Alone

i dont know

My favorite drama is "The Last Kiss". I love films that make you cry and think about your actions. I recommend watching this movie.

>>15763

Oh yeah... I remember that drama classic since the childhood. Moreover - "The Last Kiss" was my first watched such a romantic comedy-drama ever and now I try to write a review for it. It's a little bit hard for me now but I also use https://orderessay.net/movie-review.html help. Oh.. I just can't forget amazing actors from there - Zach Braff, Jacinda Barrett, Casey Affleck

>if you criticize Obama you can't be a leftist

Correction: If you criticize Obama, you can't be a liberal. Leftists and liberals are not the same thing.

Us leftists despise liberals because they're apologists for capitalism and easily fall for identity politics. Associating them with us is downright insulting.

You've got good taste.

Do you know this guy's films? What else can you tell us about him?

I recently read a cool text https://paperap.com/paper-on-enron-the-smartest-guys-in-the-room/ that has a lot of development options. This reminds me of old Dostoevsky's novellas or films about detectives. A person has a choice and we empathize with this choice.

all I know is that the 1997 version was a warning about the hobbies of the (((elites)))

This is a specific film with its own audience. I recommend watching this movie after 18 years

Is anon.cafe down?

I GOT A POST THROUGH

<Personal issues and emotions don't translate well into art

isn't the main attraction of art that skilled artists can translate any any psyxic thing into a communicible form?

nothing must be understood, but your experience of an art product is often going to be better if you understand the art product. though you're right about the 'understanding' card: if you say "you just don't understand the art product, if you understood the art product, you would understand this", you are not really helping anyone understand anything; and there is a sort of person who will leave arguments like that with a feeling of discouragement as though he cannot understand art, which tends to cause him to stop making attempts to understand art.

so

>>14030

please, instead of telling us that we need to do X to understand it, help us understand it. tell us about it. give a description of it's essential qualities that make it what it is. and don't just say 'ineffability of art', art is not ineffable, maybe some particular art products are, but then you must give a good reason for us to believe that that art product is ineffable.

>>14150

<since he isn't European he doesn't get a pass to be artsy

that's false reasoning, though the conclusion is true: nobody gets a pass to anything based on the parts of their identity which they cannot control. if being european and making art is sufficient for that art to be considered good, then why is my art not considered good? i'm european, i make bad art. despicable. or maybe my art is just misunderstood and ineffable

>>14167

^this nigga goin wild

First things, first; I didn't even said that "art is ineffable" trash you came with (which is funny you enter the debate showing yourself that way). On the other hand, you're misunderstanding making an axioma to defend your personal thoughts for not being capable to understand art with the inherent condition of an art being expressed by feelings which is where I was focusing the argument in the first place. You want to go wild and jump out the window, it's ok for me.

>That said.

I think I was very clear pointing a direction to "understand" what emotional films like the one Gallo did, anyways, I'll give you both more hints since you asked.

Add to your wishlist films directed by sensible directors like Ozu, Ford, Bresson or Gotard (among others); people who understood the importance of gestures and so did Gallo (trough his egomaniac ways) in both of his movies.

Aside of that, you can see in BB a lot of improvisation, a thing which is completely forgotten these days, just watch Cassavettes's Faces you'll understand it quickly.

Btw, cut both of you the "product" thing since we're talking of art manifestations not industry little toys. You're welcome.

Went to their website and the only movie they had for sale was Who Killed Captain Alex, a shame since they've made the best action to ever exist

>watch in amazement as each page becomes more and more generic and hollywood

>>9424

Any films where this did not happen? I totally agree, looking through the design suggestions in any art-of book tends to show this trend. What's the point of hiring all these highly skilled artists when you'll just use whatever's always worked(case in point-major animation houses)?

>>9426

1. to sell art books

2. to pretend you did a lot of work, and whatever didn't make it in "we'll save it for the sequel"

I recommend reading macbeth. This is an old creation by Shakespeare that will help to understand most of the plots of modern cinema. I recently found a cool review https://freebooksummary.com/macbeth-and-physical-appearance-21354 for fast reading lovers. The main idea is a short description of the storyline and characters.

So that's how it ended up on my hard drive...

Americans love war. And those tiny countries (aside from Granada they're the size of a US state) know how to fight, conventional militaries especially the US Military hates guerilla warfare, Apocalypse Now is a good movie. And despite being only being in WW1 for a year it was still WW1, the most brutal war of all time, Johnny Got His Gun is one of the greatest war movies ever made. And Americans are sensitive to trauma and get mentally scarred from it on top of getting no support back home so it makes good drama.

>>13847

>Buñuel

There's no better thread for it, so here's a list of films he liked:

Paths of Glory, Roma, Battleship Potyomkin, La grande abbuffata, Goupi Mains Rouges, Jeux interdits, early films of Fritz Lang, Buster Keaton and Marx Brothers, Rękopis znaleziony w Saragossie, pre-war Renoir's films, Persona, La strada, Le notti di Cabiria, La dolce vita, Sciuscià, Ladri di biciclette, Umberto D. (daily reminder that de Sica is retarded american, literal retard), von Stroheim's, Sternberg's(Underworld) and Wajda's films, Manon, L'Atalante, Dead of Night, White Shadows in the South Seas, Portrait of Jennie, The Treasure of the Sierra Madre, La caza and La prima Angélica (he likes Saura overall, aragonian as well)

and disliked:

Il Casanova di Federico Fellini, From Here to Eternity, Roma città aperta and Romance sentimentale (the second one is worse than the first, seems impossible, I know)

He actually hates Dos Passos, Hemingway and Steinbeck too, for which I like him very much, overrated rubbish, rubbish. But, in the end, he himself is overrated as fuck, put on piedestal by brainlets and retards like Gustavo Alatriste who saw Viridiana six times and then shout "I finally get it!". All clueless, brainless demystifiers and explainers should be shot dead. And tbh, saw Tristana recently, really, he's no surrealist(at least his second french period totally isn't), just like in Viridiana, blunt, stupid symbolism, beating the shit out of my eyes, that would be nothing but his films are that, should be that, should've been that, when you take that away, you get lacking, boring camera, like the mexanon already said, cheap props, hasty, or, rather, no production, way better done herzog-esque bullshit, self-injection of his (based) opinions into each and every character (I don't know why he didn't like Borges honestly, saying he's complacent and arrogant, like, I don't like him too, but for other reasons) and "ohmagd sodep shtyrslf" feeling, but that one he sure has done on purpose to hide himself and get cheap laughs, and good stories, sometimes. That said, I like him very much, he's very comfy to watch (Tristana with its brownish pallete is as comfy as it gePost too long. Click here to view the full text.

>Bicycle Theives

I never understood why they translated the title thus. The original translates directly to "Bicycle Thief", and that's really the focus of the film. not Bicycle Theives. Sure there may be two bicycle theives in Bicycle Theif, but the first one is mainly a premiss, while the second one is actually explored in depth. Also, the using the only makes sense when we see the second theft occurring, so it leaves those members of the audience confused (those who actually paid attention to the title) for a long time, and spoils the film for others (those who thought through what's happening and derived what seems likely). Then, of course, there's the fact that the film is only about the second bicycle theif, never about the first bicycle theif, but i already mentioned that.

I wish this board, /tech/ and the 2015 /x/ were still around. I hate the death of places like this, cuckchan is the worst shit. Anyway, rolling.
