The Meyerowitz Stories

Is this board capable of discussing an adult movie, or should I just go to /r/truefilm?

This may be Baumbach's best movie. It's basically The Squid and the Whale with a better cast. Also good to see Sandler back in dramatic roles.

With Jews you lose.

I bet someone's going to post armond's review

>(New and Selected)
what did they mean by this?

>Back

He's been doing dramatic roles for years now, including in Baumbach's other films.

And this was mediocre. He's only made one great film (Greenberg) and one really good film (Frances Ha).

This was more of the same.

>watching shitty flicks about jews and their issues
nah

Ignore this post. Sorry. I am retarded.

>Haha, look at this neurotic family haha oh wow! Look at that they're arguing about petty things oh boy this is good! Oh look, there was miscommunication between those two characters, oh lordy, one gutbuster after another I tell ya.

>it's ok to accept your daughter as a whore and a hack and lie to her and other people of her artistic merits and capabilities
Horrid message, especially when Sandler's character came from an artistic family and thus should know well enough to not prop up pornographic drivel as worthwhile art. This film is petty melodrama from well-off people who never have to work in their lives (Sandler's character, once again).

I guess this answers my original question.

yeah it does you pseud fuck, stop wasting your time watching shit flicks, no worse than a capeshitter

>kike movies

>Hollywood movies are made by some of the worst people in the world, a fact that all parties in the Harvey Weinstein scandal have now made clear. To understand who they are and the banality of their disreputable behavior, look to The Meyerowitz Stories (New and Selected). That title is a preening obscenity. It flatters the artistic and literary pretensions of our professional class, those Weinstein enablers, sycophants — even the pile-on castigators. They are shameless aspirants to the high-powered ranks of media and culture — typified, ironically, by The New Yorker, the publication that both “exposed” Weinstein and was where writer-director Noah Baumbach began his well-connected careerism, which is the film’s basic subject. The Meyerowitzes are not a Hollywood dynasty, but this insiders’ film depicts them as normal — their ruthless decadence disguised within the interplay of family dynamics. Baumbach’s quasi-autobiographical premise simply reflects narcissism, privilege, and social prerogative in full force. Harold (Dustin Hoffman), the father of the Meyerowitz clan, is a sculptor of little renown; he’s rated as “minor” according to Baumbach’s script, whose dialogue is full of such judgmental New Yorker–isms, a peculiarity of the family’s argot. (In a self-revealing aside, Harold dismisses Somerset Maugham as “skillful but not an artist.”) Harold’s anxiety-ridden, status-conscious adult children are Danny (Adam Sandler), a divorced, failed musician with a limp; Matthew (Ben Stiller), a frazzled celebrity accountant; and mousey Jean (Elizabeth Marvel), who is eternally neglected in the shadow of her neurotic brothers. If these characters were named Weinstein, you might immediately know what to think of them. Instead, the Meyerowitz surname stands for particular family traits of bickering and covetousness, which make this film, like other Baumbach movies, unbearable to watch.

Your just gonna double down on proving you'e underage?

If I was underage I'd still be at the point where I pretend films like this are good and intelligent

Every movie and show is a Jew production you fucks. Is this shit any good or not?

Depends. Are you older than this () guy?

its minor baumbach


>The Squid and the Whale with a better cast
have you even watched either of these movies movies?

It's Jewish in the sense that it's only relatable if you are actually Jewish or lived in a Jewish neighborhood.

or are soulless like all jews

How did they get away with showing the daughter topless when she was only 17 when filming?

I'm older than (you)

So no?

Yes (((how?))) Now I'm have to watch it.

Liked it, dealt with some subtle issues and I wonder what sandler's secret is as he was unemployed yet comfortable enough to ask successful women on dates. Also not gonna lie I got triggered by the black guy. Oh and some scenes felt kinda forced like when all three siblings began to write down what doctor said.

I liked it.

because she has great tits

This is fucking spot on, good on you Armond

it's good untill he mentions jack and jill as a comedic tour de force

>should I just go to /r/truefilm?
Do you even have to ask? Begone already you fucking homo.

always with the jews. i fucking hate this board
