That is a technical problem with 8chan. Pages go 404 when some indexing process crashes. It's never been this bad before.

I have fixed 3 pages of threads in the past day. It will take more time -- fixing requires manually opening each thread -- but I'll have everything back eventually.

I thought it could be a freeform thread with open submissions. If you like or don't like a suggestion, speak up. Avoid popular movies and try to cover a wide range of films and directors. No poll until we got a big list, then perhaps vote to determine the order of the top spots.

Hopefully the list would be used for people to get quality recommendations of *new* things to watch.

How is Koyaanisqatsi a leftist movie when it heavily references traditionalism? Army of Shadows and Battle of Algiers?

I suppose this is the "humanist" left brand that began in the 19th century but some of those contradict each other, especially when we add The Human Condition and All Quiet on the Western Front.

The Exterminating Angel, Los Olvidados, They Live and Life of Brian are even subjective if anything.

I need to check myself thoroughly.

What is leftism anyway? Trockists hate commies, commies hate anarchists etc.

Some films like Nuit et brouillard are outright NOT leftists in any way.

I think the one who made it was one of the leftists who find politics when there aren't any

Buñuel has not made no political neither leftists films, his films has some themes in common with, hmm, leftists, but that's it. Almost every 'art' movie or whatever deals with struggles of modern human in inhuman world and has social themes. Not to say that he was fuckin dumb and ugly and only his first two films were actually good. Surrealist my ass. Breton was surrealist, but not Buñuel, who should have been publicily denounced just like Dalí.

I don't know, Buñuel was a notable transgressor who liked to play with people all the time he made them pay to see his weekend movies but to say he made non-good films after his first experiments is a little harsh, when he tried to simply tell a story i think he was very decent. He did lack a lot in cinematography often, so i might not call him a complete filmmaker but i can say he was surrealist in the sense he never made anything seriously, he was a vagrant.

But i do think he played politics, just in such a level only he, his friends and some dudes who were in the joke could understand, he was expelled twice from the country, thrice if you count Spain, due to his machinations and got some of his actors killed after all.

>What is leftism anyway?

It's a mystery for sure, i also agree with you it was made by somebody who overly projected himself in the context, and who also thought of himself a bit too much. Or maybe it was a suggestion thread and merely nobody thought it would be contradictory that Army of Shadows and Battle of Algiers have both sides talk about swift and immediate execution of undesirables in an affirmative way, and then along with these movies they list Z and Come & See, and maybe Punishment Park if we think the participants were criminals.

Not so much at all. He didn't like travelling and was making money, before and after war, dubbing films into spanish, if I'm not mistaken. Other than that he was some time sponsored by french family of aristocrats, Noilles, and after that sponsored by some american museum etc and constatly asked his mommy for money. I wouldn't call him vagrant, just good-for-nothing who met bunch of intelligent people at university, that held him above waters of shit for some time.

>he never made anything seriously

I think he was only afraid of being challenged, if it's true.

>But i do think he played politics, just in such a level only he, his friends and some dudes who were in the joke could understand.

not really

the whole surrealist movement coquetted with commies and earlier with anarchists, maybe they condisdered them tools, but his memories say otherwise, the movement as a whole sucked soviet dick until maybe 50s when sartre said it's all bullshit

for example there was russian ballet in paris? he didn't fuck one of them only because he, for some retarded reason, started to talk about politics and she was clearly anti-soviet

despite being surrealist, lacking the irrationial in everyday life and hoping for fundemantal thrill and change of life at least state-wide, despite his hoping for war, violence, revolution for revolution, the absolute nothingness, he didn't participate in the spanish civil war and was terrified by the horrendous killings by falangists and anarchy anarchists did

he once said he can't understand politics-fueled killings and was scared by them, but did understand and wasn't scared of people just killing people for joy, for nothing and said it's the absolute surrealistic act; you decide

>due to his machinations

He was spy? and propagandist for the republic when in paris 35-39 if I'm not mistaken and was banned for Las Hurdes, that was his only political film sponsored by anarchist Acin who won a lottery. He was banned only under Franco, eh?

>leftism

About that, I think, have something to say: have you seen Los Olividados? Commies rejected it for some time just because there's scene when pederast tries to persuade some young man to fuck with him, then policeman comes and the pederast runs away.

It was rejected for one other scene too, director of juvenile detention center have let kid go buy himself cigarretes.

Leftism is mystery for sure, considering that stalinist countries were esentially police states.

Generally the agreement of eventually reaching a society lacking hierarchy, or the process of removing one hierarchy. Even those who no longer believe in reaching said society follow systems made to create said society.

If someone here actually made this list I highly recommend to the mods that they try getting their ip and leaking it so we can hunt them down. On the topic though liberals are generally not leftist in the same group that those above are as they do not want removal of a or/and all hierarchies, only to preserve it and fix certain problems within the hierarchy.

>he tried to simply tell a story

He lost when he took away the absurdity, the lack of reason, the internal life. Also, I think, his later works can be reduced, parts can be cut, it's not wholesome, something can miss and it's still the same.

Now, if I compare him to Max Ernst, whose works are true surrealism, who consciously unconsciously were escaping explanations, displaying pure and wholesome, unreducible humanity, compared to him his only true surrealistic act is only the first and partly the second one.

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.

>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 gets honestly and I'm glad he cast Deneuve instead of Stefania Sandrelli), knowing nothing will ever suprise you, yet you finish it, funny, sometimes bit kitschy, but no Fellini or Russel, with "overdone" "vivid" imagery, with "imagination", them being kinda art deco of film, but worse. And I like Galdós. Wish there was blu-ray of Nazarín, best film from his best post-surrealistic period. My favourite film from my favourite director is Belle de Jour though, the only one I'm sincerely fond of. Buñuel strikes me as the guy who hates printing press, neoclassicism, Strauss and superficial, but chose to be cynical instead of fighting against, for the return of the Golden Age of Art, ie Life. And, again, completely being in drag of his friends, not imitating them, but plagiarizing, parroting. Weak, too much of nothing.

>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.
