I've been called jew for saying that Heine's preface of Lutetia is more persuasive than Kapital and I've been called marxist for not being german.

In other words, I'm not sure what exactly makes him marxist and this is the closest I found for what he could be called one. These buzzwords suck. So question for you, >>15292, what's the marxist agenda?

And qestion for you too, as I'm quite new to film: why is he reactionary?

Lynch is like Tarantino, extremely normie. The movies are not deep (Eraserhead being a prime example) and he fucked up Dune, which would have been easy to adapt. There are numerous other directors who touch on the concepts that he does, that do so in a much more succinct and beautiful way. Schrader and Linklater being very good examples of that.

Twin Peaks S3 not before seeing at least Lost Highway and Mulholland Drive, but S1&2 will be fine. He's fanatic about Kafka's Metamorphosis, and watch films he mentions in interview like Sunset Blvd. His casting choices very often have uncanny resonances in character name and subject matter, and are worth seeing thereafter.

Who's Who of Victorian Cinema - A biographical guide to the earliest years of moving pictures, 1871-1901 - http://www.victorian-cinema.net/

<The confusion that existed at the birth of film to a very large extent still exists. Moving pictures did not arrive as a neat package on a specific date; those who were involved knew nothing of the phenomenon of cinema that was to come. They were scientists who saw film as an aid to their work, businessmen who hoped to exploit a new invention for the short period they expected the public to be attracted to it, or performers only doing what they would normally do on a stage. Moving pictures were just another invention in an age of inventions, or just another variety turn. What none could have foreseen was the grip that film would have on audiences, how the medium would develop and extend itself, and how the moving image would become dominant as a means of communication and entertainment in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries.

Sample biography

Shibata Tsunekichi was a photographer employed by the Mitsukoshi department store in Japan. He appears as a filmmaker in April 1898, filming five scenes in Tokyo for the Lumière brothers, the first films in Japan by a native filmmaker. In 1899 he filmed three geisha dances, at the behest of Komada Koyo, benshi and proto-film producer. The dancers had trouble staying within the sight-lines laid down for them, but geisha films went on to become a very popular native product in the earliest years of Japanese filmmaking. The geisha films were first shown 20 June 1899. In September of the same year Shibata shot Inazuma goto Hobaku no Ba (The Lightning Robber is Arrested), with Yokoyama Umpei playing the detective and Sakamato Keijiro the burglar. The following day Shibata shot Shosei no Sumie (The Schoolboy's Ink Painting) with Yokoyama as a man painted with ink by two boys while he is asleep on a bench. In November 1899 he shot the most prestigious Japanese film so far, Momiji-gari (Maple Leaf Hunters), intended as an historic record of the Kabuki theatre actors Danjuro IX and Kikugoro V. Ninin dojoji (Two People at Dojo Temple) was made in December. Shibata, by now JapanPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

few issues:

https://cineuropa.org/en/newsdetail/373626/

>Emerging Slovakian filmmaker György Kristóf is readying yet another ambitious project after his feature debut "Out", "Bunker"

>slovakian

hungarian

>Out, Bunker

so they are angloamerican films and they have the same names on whichever language-edition you use too, hence confirmed

>glocal

Another thing that struck me is the eu advertisment on the right.

>gocritic

as if their "critique" level wasn't horrendous as it is

>muh "best" this, "best" that

either they are their own authority or they accept bigger authority, they can't coexist if both do very much the same thing, there's wikipedia, or should be, for poll aggregation

>cineuropa

>europa

>default is english

it should be, and should have been since 2002, fr/es/it/de

they also seem to suck dick of the industry very hard

every two or three days they put out 8 articles, which is too much for me, if they would make /news/ general puting all in one biweekly would be better, it's all bulshit too full of redundant information (what's the point? https://cineuropa.org/en/newsdetail/373623) and it's not like there's anybody checkin fucking film site every two days, or is there?

directors have filmography listed, that's nice, but there's no complete list of articles about the director, only about the films

shame on them for not including exact link under the video tho

Compared to cineuropa:

clickable authours, although there's nothing about their background etc too

tagged, although it's not exactly what I would want: "drama" tag, what's the point of something that vague?, but directors are tagged so you can search both directors and their films and for films mentioned in the review

they make analysis, can't comment on them as I haven't read any https://www.cinemaldito.com/tras-el-mito-apuntes-sobre-lo-que-esconde-silver-lake/

they also do tasteofcinema-like lists https://www.cinemaldito.com/las-25-peliculas-noir-malditas/

3 pics instead of one in the review and the reviews justify themselves more, you can compare it yourself, it's not like it's hard to write something better than the cineuropa clowns https://www.cinemaldito.com/liberte-albert-serra/ if you don't speak spanish and don't want to use javascript, here's a tool you can use http://aplica.prompsit.com/en/, although it's better if you learn spanish haha

some reviews are more than 5 paragraphs https://www.cinemaldito.com/lo-que-esconde-silver-lake-david-robert-mitchell/

>Dark Was the Night [2014]

The main plot revolves around an undiscovered apex predator being flushed out of it's natural habitat by a logging company and finding new hunting grounds in a small town. If the movie just focused on this it could have been a cool monster flick or innawoods type of movie, but it doesn't. The film has another plot about a small town sheriff dealing with the death of his son. He hates himself for it but he gets over it and reunites with his wife. That's it, that's his plot. You've seen this plot in countless other movies and worst yet it has nothing to do with the movie's main plot about a monster terrorizing this small town, it's just there to lengthen the movie's running time.

The movie goes for a less is more approach with the monster's screen time, so at most you'll see a leg here, arm there. And even with those small glimpses you can tell the monster is CGI, bad CGI at that. And on top of that the cinematography just makes it painfully obvious when the monster is going to pop up. 'Gee, why is the main character in focus but in a corner next to a big open window?' kind of obvious.  

Another major problem with the film is the fact that every character is just boring. We have: Sad family man. Angry farmer. Farmer's daughter [don't touch her!]. Native american man. The preacher. Etc, etc. The very second you can identify the stereotype you've learn all there is to know about the the character on screen.

Everything about this movie has been done before, it's offers nothing new nor does even try to be creative. I read one review claiming this movie flew under the radar and he's right: It went under the radar because it sucks.

All around pretty damn good, watching it felt like what a Swans album would look like, incredible performances by Pattison and Dafoe too.

Watched Parasite and The Lighthouse with my family since my brother wanted to see them. They're among the few vaguely mainstream films I wanted to see from last year. Still might watch Deerskin and Ad Astra.

Parasite played better with our group than The Lighthouse, and personally I enjoyed it more than Memories of Murder (the only other film I've seen from Bong Joon Ho). The Oscar announcement makes Parasite the first Best Picture nominee I've seen since Tree of Life. I'm rooting for it to win because I loathe contemporary Hollywood directors. The yearly moaning about Oscar "diversity" is completely undermined by the fact they ignore world cinema almost completely.

I haven't read many reactions to Parasite. I was wondering if there are subtle aspects of the film that only Koreans fully understand? For example, is there deeper significance to the rich family mocking DPRK propaganda, or to the wife's General Yi reference?

The Lighthouse was a mysterious monochromatic fever dream, a slow burn of stunning imagery and folk terror. Plenty of quotable sea slang too. But I think the salty dialogue is better than the narrative itself -- with all the buildup I was expecting more of a payoff. Looking back, the film mayy be better than I initially felt, and it's interesting to explore the theme of man vs. god.

It's true the acting was very good, although my anti-Oscar bias makes me wary of films that are driven by actors. I think /tv/ anons like this film because they watch all the other crap that's released, so The Lighthouse obviously stands out.

I have to agree, but i think that's to intensify the "fever dream" aspect, feels like you're going crazy along with the characters something i love in media in general

Maybe someone would call that video art but I'd say it's more performance art (if it's supposed to be art in the first place).

I think it's the director. On the description for this video he credits himself with analog synth and tapes. I also found a Claudio Caldini music entry on RYM

https://rateyourmusic.com/release/album/claudio-caldini/el-devenir-de-las-piedras/

That must be his album because he used the same name for his blog

A couple of psychology papers regarding victimology. More specifically speaking, one about refugees and other regarding the fear of crime. Both articles sucked though.

Thank you for the music!

Caldini makes some of the best music I've heard from a director! I need to find his albums. Definitely a Board of Canada style.

Who other directors make interesting music, Jodorowsky? David Lynch? I think John Carpenter composes like a child.

Another cool Argentine experimental film maker is Jorge Honik. From the request thread: https://mega.nz/#!LlRXGJwB!ratxOxlmILDSpurItOblbSutwFnYcFy0_K_ZJRudyHU

I don't know which version I saw but the porn scenes are pretty full on. More like torture scenes.

I'm in the mood of films that depict a decadent world with no morals, full of crooks and scumbags working only for self-benefit, the dregs of society, backstabbers, rotten apples, whores and maybe a few uncorrupted individuals dealing with the corrupted world around them. Have any recs?

Nothing to say really.

>Are we confusing mentioning/exposing a potentially-good work to downright giving it a seal of approval?

No. Just that mentioning work from someone who has good reputation is not a problem. It's really just a defense of me recommending Kaufman's The Unbearable Lightness of Being in the archaic thread.

Well in any case that speaks badly of me i think. I just have a thing against memeing intellectual works. I find it as Adorno found popular music.

I saw Ken Russell's The Devils when it first came out a long time ago. I simply couldn't take it. I had to walk out mid movie; the Inquisitor giving crazy nun Vanessa Redgrave a boiling broth douche to extract confessions from her was just toooooooo much on top of everything else going on in this movie.

It may be there. But if you feel interested in exploring the oneiric. I'd suggest you check out the french era of Buñuel; Tarkovsky; Lynch. And 3 Women (1977)

I think this is the big ethnographic list that looked interesting to me. I remembered it as pure ethnographic but that's not that case.

https://letterboxd.com/joaoandrade/list/documentary-ethnographic-essay-films/

By the way here's some moaning that ethnography has been very hurtful to its subjects.

http://www.lightindustry.org/antiethnography

<For indigenous peoples the camera is a dangerous weapon, one that has been wielded against us since the device’s inception. Anthropology's obsession with preserving images of our “vanishing” cultures, through ethnographic films or archives filled with boxes of our ancestors' remains, has long been a tool used to colonize and oppress indigenous peoples.

I am skeptical about this screening night because it sounds like the presenters poisoned the well. I agree it would be aggravating to have one's historic culture mischaracterized by outsiders. But these guys seem concerned with wallowing in victimhood, primarily defining themselves in terms of the evil ethnographers instead of focusing on a positive counternarrative.
