ElTaco90 gives Primer a 4 star rating

In DW Griffith's America, the Revolution was fought because of the tyrannical and autocratic intransigence of George III, overruling the protests of his distinguished parliamentarians. The King, in cahoots with the vile Walter Butler, enlisted hordes of "savages" for the expressed purpose of murdering the women and children of the Hudson Valley. Butler, for his part, wasn't really loyal to the British crown, but was instead planning to set himself up as the founder of a vast American Empire. Griffith's loyalties are difficult to comprehend: he stretches credulity in attempting to unite the English and American aristocracies against the forces of barbarism, manifested in Butler and his lieutenant, a white man who dresses like an Indian and leads the Mohawk in brutal massacres. The final image: Tory and Patriot joined in marriage as the divine Washington prepares to take his inaugural oath, interrupted by a title card reading: "Friends of old -- again friends, to help solidify the power of the English speaking peoples in the work of the world."

DW Griffith is bad at history

Johnny Guitar and In a Lonely Place are my favourites.

I keep meaning to watch more of his stuff. I've seen Bigger than Life, which I liked and Rebel Without a Cause, which was fine.

John who plays the guitar, obviously.

John who does carpentry, obviously

Emily who wears jeans, obviously.

say something nice

go aawayy u like the worst emma

what's some movies about hate love relationships?

See They Live At Night next, excellent film. As good as IaLP and JG.

Has anyone here seen Johnny Mad Dog?

Reminder Filmstruck has these films. I have yet to see Party Girl. On Dangerous Ground is good, Bigger Than Life as well, but They Live at Night and Lonely Place are excellent. Among Bogey's best.

Has anyone seen these two documentaries?

Recently saw John Huston's Reflections in a Golden Eye with Brando and Elizabeth Taylor, what an underrated film, criminally so. Dreamlike, psychosexual film, tinted gold throughout. Debut performance of Robert Jackie Brown Forester. Brando is great.

Savage Grace was underwhelming. Moore was beautiful and did well with the subpar material, but the narrative unfurled without much interest or dynamism.

The Women (1939) is great, light film with something to say. Written by two women and starring hundreds, no men.

Rio Bravo is damn fun, as Tarantino has described, a great hangout film, you really get to know the characters as pals. youtu.be/v2ssbgThljU

Rewatched The Big Sleep and I gotta say, underwhelmed this time around. Falcon and many others dwarf it. Great set-up and Bogey and Bacall have great chemistry, but once the plot starts rolling there's not much there.

Just do a free trial.
