If you don't like it, leave.
>Yeah, I''m a big film buff
>I've watched over 3000 movies...
>...on Netflix
Good taste! But I like Days Of Wrath a lot.
Bad taste! That's Dreyer's worst film
Why? Please expand on this, it's the only film by him that I consider great, passion of Joan gets mentioned everywhere as the best silent film but Foolish Wives is miles ahead imo.
It's pretty fucking dumb and melodramatic even for Dreyer
Surely you have some better criticism for it besides it being "dumb" right?
>Foolish Wives
not even the best film of 1922 let alone best silent flick
People like to pretend they genuinely enjoy Griffith just because "he made it all first".
Well yeah, but everyone after him executed it better.
If it isn't in your top 5 of 1922 idk what to tell you.
Surely you have some better justification for liking it besides "I like it a lot."
Watch more than 5 films from 1922 first.
>they're not available digitally
idk what to tell you
>People like to pretend they genuinely enjoy Griffith just because "he made it all first".
If that was genuinely the case, people would suck off Edwin S. Porter
So what you're saying is reddit likes poetic emotionally impacting visual storytelling while Sup Forums likes technical sterile gimmick show-offs?
reddit fell for the "film is an aesthetic medium" meme
I like him because he made great pictures that literally changed the medium, his films are humanistic and poetic, there's no reason not to like him, unless you have something against silents, but even the talkies are good, unless you don't like 30s Hollywood.
I've seen more than 5 films from 1922, vato.
I like Edwin S porter.
I have, actually, would you like to read it just so you can call it dumb?
what are your favorite Griffith films? where should I start with him?
Anybody that thinks Day of Wrath is Dreyer's best film has nothing worth reading.
Watch the Biographs, some of the shorts are excellent
His features, I think, are largely over-rated although he was a racist so of course he's beloved here
Start with Biographs. But really, if you've seen anything by him and are not convinced, that's a taste problem, and that can't be fixed.
Ok then hide my posts and continue being afraid of discourse.
Start chronologically, I guess it's more rewarding that way, I don't think any of hia films are not as essential as others, check out everything you can find, and if you can't find one, make a thread here and I'll see if I can help.
My favorites would be the greatest question, intolerance, the struggle, way down east and the one that really holds a place in my inner circuits is the mothering heart
Find me 1 instance of him being explicitly racist. Give me 1 good reason why niggers should be considered human.
ah thanks user, I'll ignore the shitposters and follow your advice, I'll start his filmography next week probably
cheers! its so hard to get answers like yours in this board lately

No.
Meme aside, Andrei was our guy
what
Autism.
but why? It's funny that OP think Sup Forums is Griffith, Stroheim, Flaherty, early Murnau when people here only talk about capeshit, star wars and whatever is the flavor of the month

back2reddit is a great response to be honest, I didn't expect nothing but a buzzword on this board
What can you expect of someone who can only criticize films because they are "dumb".
>Rene Clair
Griffith is shit
Tell us why Day of Wrath isn't
It explicitly shows the demonization of mob mentality
>hasn't seen the flick
>acting like your word salad is anything new or special
>Sup Forums unironically liking a jew
Ahoy, reddit!
