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.

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.

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

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]

We tend to remember Julie Andrews for Sound of Music, a monster hit for sure. But A Thoroughly Modern Millie was in many ways a better made musical. And in this scene we also see another famous actress of the era outside of her TV role in Dick Van Dyke show or Mary Tyler Moore Show.

>sexist

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.

> his wife was a member of the Nazi party

Somehow I never knew that. Not a pretty woman but she was a great screenwriter.

<A Nazi banner flew over Lang’s house in the early 1930s – and while many ascribe that action to von Harbou – Gottfried Reinhardt and Harold Nebenzal told McGilligan, “Lang was lax in tolerating the Nazis and flirted with Party approval.” Whether Lang was a Nazi sympathizer is still an unanswered question and McGilligan states “evidence lingers on either side of the issue” and while it is likely that a definitive answer will never be forthcoming, it belies the hard-line, anti-Nazi stance that Lang would affect in Hollywood and indicates that what we think we know about Lang is no more than the smoke of myth. One thing that will become clear is that it wasn’t von Harbou’s politics that led to the divorce. One reason for Lang’s flight might exist in the sense that the Nazis had a party member in von Harbou and an apolitical and troublesome personality in Fritz Lang.

The flag was probably 100% Harbou's idea but Lang most likely did not care either way about the politics, just like every one else at the time. I can't fault him for not predicting the future and seeing what would happen during WWII.

> do you just watch random stuff?

I download random obscure stuff because it can lead to interesting places. Previously I would force myself to watch everything to the end. I think that carries over from my stubbornness against quitting in general. But lately I find myself wanting to stop films that don't hold my interest. I'm thinking about trying an ADD approach to viewing, hop from different films as the mood strikes. I think Raoul Ruiz said he did the same thing with books. He would read a number them at the same time.

>How many films do you watch per week? Per year?

I always try to watch at least 150 movies a year. Sometimes I get too busy to watch movies for weeks, then binge through 20 movies in a few days.

>Do you still go to the cinema?

By the time I might even find an interesting movie from the current year, it isn't even in movie theates anymore. I usually stick to pre-2000 for the most part.

>Do you track your viewing on a website or spreadsheet?

Simple spreadsheet that lists the movie, date released, and whether I liked it or hated it.

>Do you try to complete viewing lists and filmographies, or do you just watch random stuff?

I used to think I watched randomly, but from keeping a list I find I tend to watch in groups of the same decade or genre. If I don't feel like anything is interesting enough, I'll find a list and try to watch something to get me interested in movies again.

Yeah I see a lot of entries about the mob in Marseille. I thought the city might have improved a bit since these movies were made, but it sounds like there's still a lot of crime and corruption there.

https://www.theguardian.com/books/2014/jun/17/marseille-crime-fiction-rose-sang

Wikipedia even blames current populism for pushing minorities into crime... I hadn't heard that logic before, but I suppose anti-immigrant populism empowers hardliners on the other side of the issue.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milieu_%28organized_crime_in_France%29

<A global push for populism and anti-immigrant sentiments have led to increased Milieu activity. Minority members of French society are being lured into crime families as a way of "fitting in".

I think it's safe to say, in the current climate, that Marseille is not doing very good these days.

I was going to say that before but i don't like being too inflammatory around here.

>Wikipedia even blames current populism for pushing minorities into crime

Populism is a lot of things depending on the population (and its majority) but in the case of Marseille, i don't know who really is "the minority", if their populism is for or against France and if we talk in "traditional" definitions, are foreigners the majority of criminals because of populist/anti-immigrant sentiments or said sentiments are being distilled because foreigners are the majority of criminals?

These days some stuff happening makes definitions and words change way too fast

Well I haven't heard anything particularly bad about Marseille lately, unlike Calais or Cologne or London. So I wasn't sure what to think about it.

As for the wiki page, I'm sure they are blaming National Front supporters for a bad kind of populism that leads to a negative reaction in others. Their hypothesis is probably true to a degree. At the same time, bashing euro populism is more about being politically fashionable than identifying root causes. In this case I think it's being used to blame-shift for the actions of criminals themselves -- and also the actions of political elites whose policies created many of the societal problems in the first place.

Surprised there's no Criterion thread yet.

I'm interested to see some of the Fassbinder blurays coming out. I've also got John Ford's My Darling Clementine ready to watch whenever I have time. And I'm happy to see my favorite Todd Haynes movie getting an HD upgrade in the near future.

The last Criterion I saw was the Ray Milland supernatural mystery The Uninvited. As I expected, it was good but not great. It rates about the same as Ministry of Fear, another decent Milland Criterion.

I have a soft spot for weird subjects, like the paranormal, unsolved mysteries, that sort of thing. The genre is utterly flooded with bullshit from every angle possible making it impossible to find the good quality documentaries.

Quick move there, i got scared my post was for nothing and probably you won't find it useful but i will try look something.

I think i read something about ""Skinwalker Ranch"" getting a documentary. I spend moderate amounts of time reading about paranormal (except the spiritual/alchemist aspect) and to be fair the entire field of the paranormal is filled to the brim with bullshit but the very few instances that are legitimately intriguing are the reason to keep going, still i don't quite recall good filmed work discussing it.

I do remember a couple of decent TV programs from an old Argentinian channel dedicated to this genre (that drastically changed its focus after it got absorbed by Time Warner around 2007) it was about "casual activity", meaning stuff that was widely known and experienced by regular people but still was paranormal in nature (folk belief) namely highway shadows that almost every interstate driver has seen. The argieanon will probably remember the channel but most of the content from it went bust, at least in the rest of the continent, i never saw any of its original programs again. Just checked and there's a listing of the programs' names, i will try to check if i can find something interesting because they also had a lot of bogus before the handover.

We can stop reading here, somewhat related historical rambling that i just realized ahead:

My pop also had a bunch of VHS tapes with old documentaries, somehow Latin America was very receptive to these things. There was one about a triangle sector in Puerto Rico were a famed entity trolled people at night and sucked the blood of the farmstock in the mid-70's: El Vampiro de Moca (Moca's Vampire) it was just a local thing until it reappeared in the late 90's again (1996 i believe) in that instance it was re-dubbed Chupacabras (Goat Sucker) but the inconsistent thing here is that, while it became more rampant in its antics, the locals were divided with 2 very different descriptions; Many saw something like the original one, a giant bat thing that flePost too long.

Hey, /film/, thought I would start a thread on independent film makers that browse here. Just finished my fantasy film two years in the making, working on some final music selections (very minimalist).

We wanted to make a basic fantasy film that is more like Conan The Barbarian and Dark Souls, with some cinematography similar to what you would see in Samurai Jack at times. 13th Warrior was also a big inspiration. The plot isn't complicated, but it is more about the shots and the atmosphere of the film. We shot this over the course of two years for about 5000.

The film is called Spriggan. Looking to release it in about a week or so to Amazon, etc. Take it to some festivals as well.

What are some projects you are working on, or roadblocks that you are running into making your film?

Here are a few stills.

Yeah, a lot of normies went in expecting GOT or LoTR, and criticized (rightfully at times) the production value. We're featured along with the rest of B-movies on Amazon though so maybe they're blind? People will give a 5 star or a 1 star, that's it lol. Either way, lots of people are watching it and the ratio of negative reviews to those watching it completely through is pretty insane. if all they wanted was production value I could easily have done that with another 4k. good to know for fellow anons and myself in the future. funnily, amazon told me they could care less about reviews; as long as people are watching it on a regular basis, "then you did something right".
