ITT: Pretentious garbage that people pretend to like
I can tell you're the same guy who posted those two Tarkovsky Sacrifice threads. Kys again
i fell asleep during this and woke up during the last 40 minutes
Link to those threads please?
I liked the movie actually. The Turin Horse was decent. Werkmeister I didn't like. And I'm about to watch Damnation.
I died during this and then got reincarnated, grew up, found my own body and still had like 18 minutes left.

Actually just a bit over 7 hours. I own the DVD.
an adequate marathon
And it isn't boring. I've seen some 1 h 30 m movies that were by miles more boring. Practically almost anything from 40s and earlier, except Chaplin.
>Wellman is boring
>Wilder is boring
>Dreyer is boring
>Huston is boring
>Ford is boring
Wow.
Describes Batman v Superman perfectly.
I sat down for it once and didn't make it all the way. I thought it was a bore. And I've seen longer art house films than this, so it wasn't some attention span issue.
Skip Tarr and read Krasznahorkai. He is legitimately one of the greatest writers on the planet right now.
In fact spend less time watching art house in general and more time reading literature. Most art house is a waste of time. Lousy medium.
Damnation is Tarr's best film.
Funny thing is his shit was funded by the exact same regime he "hated", because guess what, free artistic expression was not only allowed, but literally funded from government funds/tax money in socialist countries.
Then he sold his ass to Soros just like Haneke, Trier, Noe and the rest of the artfags.
I don't think Lars "I'm a Nazi" von Trier is in Soros' pocket.
Feel free to check what organizations finance his shit, what boards he's on, what festival juries, and so on. It's all the same swamp.
Dreyer, except Ordet and Jeanne, yes. I mean, do you think Gertrud wasn't boring? Wilder, ok, he isn't. But he isn't 40s either afaik. The rest is boring, yes. Ford is dead boring, I want to kill myself when I try to tolerate his so called movies.
i like it
thou shall not worship false idols
Looks like it affected you deeply to take the time to write all that.
Oh hey Ziegfield
What a nice opinion you have there. Ford is boring. You're sure smart
it wasnt funded by them you bloody idiot, the movie came out in 1994, after the eastern bloc revolutions. its the 4th sentence on his wikipedia page: "Tarr had wanted to make the film since 1985 but was unable to proceed with the production due to the strict political environment in Hungary."
>That opinion
>All in uppercase letters
We get it, you are an underage, pampered upper middle class teenager. There`s no need to make it so obvious.
>Otar Iosseliani, the Georgian director, was telling me the same, that the censorship of the big audience is worse that the censorship of the state, because you only get money for movies made for the big audience.
>Yes, he is right. Because during the communist area you knew you had to make some tricks here and there, like a snake, and if you were very fast and you had some good ideas, you could do it. I really did what I wanted. We had a lot of difficulties, but finally we could make the movies.
>Half of the money came from Hungary, 3 million francs from Germany, 1 million from France, and 1 million is still missing.
>Hungary
>Stalin
>1994
>commies
Go back to capeshit, retards.
Wreckmeister Harmonies>The Man from London>Satantango>Damnation>Turin Horse
Hungary wasn't in the Soviet Union?!?!?!?!?!?!
You realize that he had a career before the movie that made him famous in your country, right?
