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

reviews with no tags, unclickable authors of the reviews and way too short reviews with nothing-saying big words, someone calls this Post too long. Click here to view the full text.

you forgot to mention, when you mentioned trailers, their https://invidio.us/channel/UCwu67nMWl3Xq-_mw6Xr6vbQ

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/

you seem to be able to comment the articles, although there are no comments

>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.

Some times i didn't know whether to laugh or to cry in a good way, expected a gory horror show but it ended up being much more than that, didn't even mind the cheesy ending.

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

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

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.

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.

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.

/nacht/ closes, then opens for /grim/, October 24

First, I'll run another Afterparty movie for the next session. While dependent on any delays in the /grim/ program, the 15 minute break should start around 0742 UTC (or 12:42 am Pacific), which puts the movie start at 0757 UTC (or 12:57 am Pacific). This movie will be Halloween III: Season of the Witch.

Because hardly anyone showed up for the first warm-up movie this week, I'm only running two this Saturday afternoon. I have a special feature in store for the last (handoff) bumper though!

All times UTC:

• 2200 - Music begins

• 2226 - The Shining (1980)

• 0105 - The Rocky Horror Picture Show (1975)

• 0245 - Souper Spoopy Speshul Feeture!

including 15 minute breaks between all films.

Where:

http://connectcast.tv/Mal-2

When:

Saturday, 2015/10/24 at 2200 UTC (3 pm Pacific, 6 pm Eastern).

Why:

This is just the opening act for >>>/grim/ and their Slasher Films presentation. You are highly encouraged to join them after we're done here.

Filling the chat with MST3K-style riffing and snarking about the films is not only allowed, it is expected.

Official threads at >>>/nacht/184 and >>>/grim/320

This is the >>>/grim/ announced line-up (with 15 minute breaks included):

Joe Hisaishi has been a big shot for a long time now, making the bulk of his scoring career with Ghibli films, but one of his niche appeals are his 7 scores for Takeshi Kitano ranging from 1991 to 2002.

Here's a quick shot at 5 of them, and while these are a little campy for some folks i think they are worth a shot, especially this one for 1993's Sonatine and its title track variations. The interesting part that really caught me was the shifting droning background in some of the songs (1st, 3rd and 4th webms) that appear as a silence replacement in scenes either at night or in moments of emotional investment were time passes in a flash, creating a somewhat dense atmosphere as the movie version is more evident. The omnipresent soft echo adds to the flavor, especially in the piano pieces.

The film's overseas distribution is a good story itself, a funny series of benign accidents on enthusiasts and foiled malicious plans of plagiarism by directors.

Returning a little into a more soft and juvenile side there's 1991's A Scene at the Sea, or That Summer, The Calmest Ocean... in its translated original title with a prolonged subtitle available in the poster and cover art here, seemingly coming from one of the surviving protagonists.

Very sweet yet melancholic vibe going on, i believe the director wanted to make clear the impression that the entire story was being told as a memory recapitulation instead of a real-time event, that something in the nostalgic music exacerbates this feeling very well. A well done exercise in terms script too, trying to move a slow-burning story with 2 mute characters.

Now jumping a short later after Takeshi's mysterious bike accident it's 1996's Kids Return, an ambiguously semi-biographic coming-of-age movie without the man himself starring anywhere. The playful and explicit tones give away the nature of the characters and the movie early on, which quickly turns into frustrated shuffles when some of the kids some? i meant all of them start stumbling with the hardships of a demanding recession-ridden Japan of the 90's.

There's a lot of mood swings but the explosive title theme takes the cake mainly for its timely appearance, pretty rad guitar too.

A year later the man would go on to win the once-coveted Venice Golden Lion (formerly Coppa Mussolini) with Hana-Bi aka Fireworks, competing against rivals like Yimou Zhang's Keep Cool, Pedro Costa's Ossos and the russian gem The Thief.

The movie itself is gluttonous for misery, a sure-fire catnip recipe when the jury is composed of women, and the dramatic score for strings gives an elegant and poignant accent to all the mishaps and event successions around the personal life of a beat cop, interpreted by no other than the director, again.

The mix of dry and absurd humor coming once in a while is a much appreciated aspect that i found to be a little lost recently, especially from movies where everyone is dragging themselves in an emotional swamp plus the precise allocation of such segments gives places to a strong contrast effect when the movie is about to drop someone.

And speaking of misery and prizes, Kitano wanted to go at it again in 2002 and made a little shining gem called Dolls, a cinematographer-driven film about lovelessness in different japanese social groups such as salarymen, yakuza and otaku men, along with trying to visually and ideologically explain the meaning and appeal behind the old japanese puppet theater; such attempt done in a successful way in my opinion. The score is subdued but pretty dramatic at one point, its titular theme being the juicy cherry of the mix with the inclusion of the old familiar percussion from previous projects.

The film was entered into its respective Venice Film Festival edition and faced stiff melancholic competition like Chang-Dong Lee's Oasis, Konchalovsky's House of Fools and bleeding edge The Magdalene Sisters by Marx Engels Mullan. The latter being a woman-beating hellhouse story it became a hit among the female jury, which did not forgive and gave the edge in the split decision. Obviously this is not or shouldn't be about the prizes nor immediate recognition, i just found the clear trends behind jury decisions funny like Del Toro convincing the Netflix-involved jury members to vote for Cuaron

Is it quick to encode audio webms? Video webms are pretty slow, so now I only make mp4s.

>Is it quick to encode audio webms?

Yes, certainly much more than videos even with VP9 enabled. There's a couple of details i forgot how to handle but the recipe i found always gives me decent results. In my PC for example the first webm, Play on the Sands, took me 10 seconds to encode.

ffmpeg -r 1 -loop 1 -i A.jpg -i 1.mp3 -c:v libvpx-vp9 -c:a libopus -b:a 96k -t 4:45 1.webm

I do have to set the specific time because the option to finish encoding at the end of the audio is pretty buggy as it continues indefinitely sometimes or abruptly finishes before.

I suppose you know the parameters but for anyone who doesn't and wants to try out:

"-r 1" is the desired framerate per second, 1 is the basic for just a single image i think, there might be another option to make the image stream static

"A.jpg" is the name of the image file you want.

"1.mp3" is the name of the audio file accompanying it.

"-c:v libvpx-vp9" is the video encoder, it's either "libvpx-vp9" or "libvpx", the difference i think it's the latter being VP8 and the former the VP9 checkmark in the "WEBM for Retards/Bakas" GUI, which makes it more lightweight but takes longer.

"-c:a libopus" is the audio encoder, it's either "libopus" or "libvorbis". Opus is, in very broad terms, the upgrade from Vorbis but i think both are recognized as .ogg at the end of the day.

"-b:a 96k" is the audio bitrate. While the bare minimum should be 128k i found that 96k is more than enough for these preview purposes unless the original audio is a very contemporary production like a WavPack or a kinky ASMR.

"-t 4:45" is the total runtime of the audio, there's an option to detect it automatically but like mentioned it's not very reliable.

"1.webm" is the name of the desired final product.

How about top 10 actresses from films before 1980? I got a thing for Swede blondes but I did include a few black haired beauties. It all started when I was talking with a friend about how much more brautiful women were casted to bring works to life and capture our hearts and really make them classics. But after googling some women I remember fondly I found them to be pretty rat faced and disgusting. Also bonus points are seeing them at 80-90 years old and how sometimes beauty never fades or how plastic surgery and drugs really affects the elite. Anyways heres mine in order.

The relationship of the NY stage to the movies and TV is again seen in the career of Kitty Carlisle (fake name)

>Kitty Carlisle was born as Catherine Conn (pronounced Cohen) in New Orleans, Louisiana of German Jewish heritage. Her grandfather Ben Holtzman was the mayor of Shreveport, Louisiana, and a Confederate veteran of the American Civil War. He had been a gunner on the CSS Virginia, the Confederate ironclad warship that fought the USS Monitor at the Battle of Hampton Roads. Her father Joseph Conn was a gynecologist who died when she was 10 years old.[citation needed] Her mother[4] Hortense Holtzman Conn was obsessed with breaking into the prevailing Gentile society. A taxi driver once asked if her daughter were Jewish, and she answered, "She may be, but I'm not".[5]

>Carlisle's mother took her to Europe in 1921 where her mother hoped to marry her off to European royalty, believing that the nobility there were more amenable to a Jewish bride. The two of them traveled around Europe and often lived in what Carlisle recalled as "the worst room of the best hotel." She was educated at the Chateau Mont-Choisi in Lausanne, Switzerland, then at the Sorbonne and the London School of Economics. She studied acting in London at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art.[6]

The reason for that is most likely because Olive's extremely neurotic, irritating and whiny personality seems like a sexist stereotype of the average housewives of the time. Olive IS really annoying but she does have some good scenes too (like telling Bluto off in a few episodes). Her characterization is a bit uneven as well depending on the writer.

Also obligatory "Franklin the Sailorman" Kek. This Popeye bit is one of my favorites from the show.
