your knowledge of post 40s film is an empty space so no

First, incorrect. Second, pic and link-related.

I have yet to be given an answer for any "crucial development" formally or contentwise that proves why everything hasn't already been done in the 30s and prior

doesn't matter because people watch films for stories

And they've mostly been done already. Just exchange names and couple plot and setting details. It's all a big mad lib

>mostly
so you just saidit yourself tat not all have been done

I'm bored at work and I can cast any Netflix title onto the work TV (or CraveTV or Sundance Now title).

What should I watch?
- no gore or f bombs unfortunately

deep throat

yikes

I'm not going to follow him, he's an embryo.

Did you put that dead plant there that wasn't there when I visited in july

So much this.

You've watched less though Bruce

>Implying I'm Bruce

When Bruce is done spamming, he shows his true colors

umm.. check again sweetie

There's only 11 people here. Pete=Bruce

That doesn't prove anything, Smooth-o

Bruce I thought we were friends. This whole time you've been the one attacking me even after I defended you countless times.

why the fuck does this film have a 3.8 rating?
why have so many people watched it, are you all fucking retards?

>pleb can't into michael snow

letterboxd.com/nathanwhite/film/wavelength-1967/

So here is what I don't get.

After spending an evening of moving in, this chick decides to leave for several days and not come back? Who does that? I move in, I want to spend some comfy time in my new residence. Oh, and if I come in on a dead body, I'm gonna freak out first.

Great writing there, Snow. You sure are the James Joyce of cinema.

i'm glad i ""can't"" into a piece of shit
>Somewhere near immortal; one of the most complete things in general, the best moment is the first time the land comes back into view but it's upside down, although the entire thing is perfect and Michael Snow has crafted a wonder.
>So beautiful, moving - space and movement, sounds and the creation of patterns: we can quantify total abstraction, and perhaps only through cinema. These patterns create/show that it is possible for cinema to exist in a form that is linguistic - Cinema began as technology, became an art, but stripped from artistry we realize it was a language all along.
>Snow breaks down cinema to the bones, and what we have left is space, time, and information. When he puts us here, three hours on a mountain with no sounds but the buzzing electronics, we can meditate and see cinema as it always has been: a document of an imagined moment - nothing more, nothing less.

jesus, does everyone on letterboxd have fucking retardation or are just trolling?

letterboxd.com/glazomaniac/film/la-region-centrale/

LOOOOOOL

DW Griffith > Michael Snow

You needed a 4 hour flick to tell you that arranged patterns form a language.
>what is music notation
>what is the alphabet
True retardation indeed

letterboxd.com/Arokz/

Maybe he doesn't know English

It's time to delete your profile

i know everything about emily jean renoir

you obviously don't, you can't even get his name right

Emily Bean Renoir > Emily Jean Renoir

DW Griffith > Jean Renoir

apples to oranges

No.

DW Griffith > Jean Renoir

apples to oranges

i don't trust that image, griffith never made a film

I find it absolutely hilarious how each Frank Capra, John Ford, and Jean Renoir all made several poor remakes of Griffith's works.

We can go all day. Better just to admit now you're too pleb for Griffith. It was embarrassing before but now it's just sad that you're touting poor dopplegangers

>George Cukor.

rooney makes me loony

Preston Sturges is actually the worst name mentioned in that pic

/thegr1fter

...

i'd read your post but i don't think your opinion on griffith is worth anything, you though he made films, and you see, he never made a single film in his life
