i wouldn't call Orson Welles or even The Lady from Shanghai shit. it's hard to judge a film that's missing over an hour from its director's intended cut. as far as Citizen Kane goes, i actually did really like it. it's a borderline 5 star, but i do think it drags as it gets bogged down in Kane's political campaign and relationship with Susan Alexander.

>it's hard to judge a film that's missing over an hour from its director's intended cut Why? Judge what's there. Simple!

Jose Martinez
i guess what i mean to say is that it's hard to judge it and reflect that back on the director. for all we know, the 155 minute cut is a masterpiece butchered by the studio. it's certainly possible, given the visual fidelity of the version released, but we'll never know because the footage was lost.
Watched Hounds of Love last night, reminded me of Monster with Charlize Theron. I thought it was great but I'm biased because it was shot in my city and I worked on it briefly.

Going to re-watch a movie to check on my encode of it, wish me luck, /lbg/.
Haha I'm kidding! isn't really my kinostation. The image used here (minus the /lbg/) is actually my television! You can see TCM playing in the corner. Thanks for reading.

How important is good production design in a film's success? Who's your favourite production designer?
Nathaniel Hughes
I feel like production design is one of those things that is hugely appreciated when done well in a film, but rarely consciously
That said, Anna Biller is someone where it extremely stands out
Asher Gutierrez
What should I watch tonight? I like female leads

Matthew Murphy
Well OK! I hope it's good. Somebody suggested Raw last thread a French horror film. I loved it. I thought the double life of Veronique was dull though
Dominic Bell
it's fantastic if you like plotless character studies but if you're looking for something more narrative-driven you could check out Kobayashi's The Inheritance instead

I tried my hand at my first real review. Can people tell me if it seems okay, did I get my points across well?
structurally it's fine, though it concludes somewhat abruptly, but you need to pay more attention to word choice and grammar. avoid putting qualifiers in front of adjectives ("real" seems to be a problem for you) and starting sentences in the middle of an idea ("So once the humans and apes meet and start interacting,", "The clashing ideals of both Caesar and his right hand Koba;"). it gets your point across as is, but it's very clunky to read.
Don't bother making reviews if you have shit taste >rating anime higher than 2/5
lmao
Bentley Evans
Mr. Chinese Doggy didn't like it :/
Jayden Morales
the hackjob the studio editor did on it renders it basically incoherent and (presumably) removes any depth from the characters that was present in Welles' original cut. it looks great, though, especially the hall of mirrors climax.
also, and i recognize that this is something of a nitpick, the trial in the last third of the film is the most legally inaccurate thing i think i've ever seen in a film.
Sebastian Rivera
I've been too sick for the past few days to watch any movies. I'd get twenty minutes or half-an-hour into one and turn it off. Feels like I'm over it now, so kino, here I come!

Psycho is a great film, that's the rating it deserves. Haven't seen the other but it feels generous to me.

i dunno, i liked it when i saw it but it was years ago. that actually just makes my point about Aronofsky being a hack stronger.
