Daily reminder inconnu 11/06/15 (Fri) 11:36:12 No.6202 [Open thread]

Cinema's most important aspect is the aesthetics.

It's the logical axiom of cinema, the first and therefore absolute truth to the medium. Meaning that, in a rough manner, sounds and storyline coherence are secondary to the will of aesthetic.

Following the systematic distribution of categories within cinema, it's logical to affirm that the diegetic structure of the mimesis is what matters the most, as it's closely vinculated to the roots of the medium itself.

Do you speak Russian? I've done amateur subtitle translation and it can be a difficult task. The best way I've found is to make sure you keep your momentum -- do a little each day and don't break the routine. If you take to much time away from the job, it is harder to restart.

I'm working on a short film right now. I'll let you all know when it's done.

Remember: if you are making a short film, make it as refinished as possible; the most important aspects to emphasize are the montage and the execution of mise-en-scene to engross the possibilites of mimetic exegesis of the work.

Well silent comedies are usually undercranked a bit. But that creates a different effect: to heighten the action when the film is played back at normal speed.

Aside from other WKW or Christopher Doyle films I can't think of many that use this dreamlike slow shutter more effectively than Chungking Express. Maybe some big budget action movies have a scene or two that resembles it...Gladiator, Saving Private Ryan?

Fallen Angels is similar enough but with a bit darker tone.

that aesthetic in particular seems resigned to the early to mid/late 90s and I don't think anyone pulls it off quite like Wong Kar-wai.

L' Atalante (1934) inconnu 10/22/15 (Thu) 18:32:07 No.6073 [Open thread]

I thought it was aesthetically efficient. I liked the offbeat tone and the disregard to standard filmic narrative. I also liked the combination of a sterile and gritty dreamlike Paris (devoid of any charm and magic) habited by marginal and borderline grotesque characters, going opposite to what is often being promoted by the media. But at the end of the film I realized it was nothing to write home about. A very simplistic and carefully constructed story done with occasional doses of flare and passion, surprisingly never losing the diegetic ground for unconvenient mistakes that might've prejudiced viewing immersion. A precise film.

I'd like to hear what you folks thought about this one.

I liked it, simplicity and all. I'll grant you that the ending didn't amount to much, but up to that point it kept me guessing. I thought we'd probably see beautiful Paris, and perhaps there would be more conflict between Jules and Jean (the boat love triangle trope). Vigo's writing and Michel Simon's acting were both sharp.

It also had several silent movie sequences. Most people probably don't even think about it, but the wordless montages of characters wandering around the streets is a silent era construct. It's fun to spot these silent sequences in sound films; John Ford is another director who used them a lot.

Outdated film tecniques inconnu 10/17/15 (Sat) 23:30:24 No.6021 [Open thread]

For me, is the fade away. It is useless. Other than expressing a relation of brief temporal/spatial shift between a two determined events (A and B) it is succintly limited and archaic as a form of communicating ideas.

A fade away inside the current filmic system is bound to failure. A modern hollywood film averages 2000-3000 cuts. In this case a fade might even break a film's diegetic reality.

A filmmaker that indulges with this technique is deriding the medium, attempting to prove something by asserting a domain of montage which he clearly does not retain. Thus the use of this technique should be energetically disencouraged.

Outdated or not, I wish closeups were used much more sparingly. If there's only one or two per film suddenly the closeup has more power.

I guess actors want to be seen and audiences want to see them. But it's not very interesting to look at one face, then another, then back ... continuously. There are many other unique things to do with visual composition. I'm hoping larger TV screens help trend away from this overused shooting style.

Close-ups can be very effective when combined with a good work on the montage. I agree with you though, today filmmakers are more focused on using it as a quick and cheap method of building up tension rather than forming a coherent filmic language.

Truth is, they pander to the short span of modern masses. This generation of mainstrean moviegoers grew up watching television and video entertainment - bad entertainment - more than any other, and this fact unfortunately reflects on the overall state of cinema today. It's quite sad.

Well, anyway, I prefer a tracking shot with a precise and dynamic blocking rather than an abrupt zoom in a subject. Of course that's just me.

Film Club Suggestions inconnu ## Board Owner 03/01/15 (Sun) 16:48:28 No.3564 [Open thread]

At /film/ we have an ongoing Film Club which features titles suggested by the board. Usually there's a different theme each month. The tentative plan for March was to start Concerning Violence in a few days while choosing two other films for later in the month.

However since Concerning Violence is not yet widely available outside private sites, many members may not be able to watch it. If anyone has a link, we can still do it. Otherwise we'll wait until later.

Either way, the floor is open to suggest interesting films to be featured this month and beyond. We can continue February's theme of newer releases, or look at political documentaries, or perhaps there's another theme you'd like to explore. Let's hear your ideas.

It's cool the director is into field recordings. That's what people listen to when mere music has lost its appeal, ha ha. I think he actually released an LP of the sounds of mole crickets.

Really? That's weird if true because the two movies have nothing in common except the idea of older+younger lesbians

Lorna the Exorcist is weird itself. But nothing to do with exorcism so the title was probably trying to ride the success of The Exorcist

Watched about half of the trailer before I trashed it.

Looks like typical dyke garbage with some nice visuals.

Screenwriting inconnu 09/03/15 (Thu) 08:26:54 No.5562 [Open thread]

Does anybody here have an interest in screenwriting? Or experience selling their script(s)?

I'm thinking of banging out 3 or 4 ideas I've had bouncing around my head, but considering that I'm an American (not film) student living in Europe with no funds for a trip to LA–how fucked am I?

You can't get anyone to look at your script unless you're part of the Union. You can't be part of the Union unless you're working. You figure out the Catch-22 here.

I swear it's a protection racket.

Best move would be to re-draft your story as a novelization and publish that. You don't need anyone's permission for that, and if it catches on and Hollywood comes calling, then you can hit them with the script.

I honestly wish I were able to enjoy flavor of the week movies and superhero flicks. I just can't stop finding them so bland.

Even though I consistently disagreed with Ebert, that's something I've always admired in him is that he never had a hard time enjoying a simple movie.

It's called composition and camera angles. Color (not colour) theory is for eurotrash like you OP.

What does YMS have to do with Ebert's book anyway? It's some youtube series right? Why couldn't he think of his own name?

Anyway the internet creates a lot of instant experts. And they can be annoying. But as long as I too have access to a hundred thousand films I guess can put up with them.

There can be a tinge of sadness in Japanese films. Characters will exhibit values of self-control and stoic resilience. Try Sansho the Baliff and The Naked Island.

Also check out one of my favorite 1960s American films, The Swimmer.
