Reminder to prepare your 2018 cult movie challenge list; it is good to do
Ryder Moore
wasn't 1 enough?
Landon Morris
I've done it for 2 years now, looking forward to my third
Good to do, gets me leaving reviews when I wouldn't otherwise and watching films that wouldn't be on my radar (or I keep putting off) without it
Good way to introduce yourself to some really interesting filmmakers and genres

Here's a challenge for you, machill: watch DW Griffith's filmography.
Bentley White
also for a lesser known movie from 1979 try Last Hurrah for Chivalry
Dominic Wright
Most of it is unavailable to watch
It certainly would be challenging!
Joseph Perry
I spend my morning shitposting in Thanksgiving parade threads because my life is devoid of purpose.
Daniel Scott
Actually nearly all of it is available. Griffith is one of the only few of all silent directors whose works all survived and remain in tact, all 500+ :)

In my opinion somebody should release a blu-ray coffret of his work
I'll watch then
Until then I'm hoping his films get shown at the silent film festival/weekend
Brayden Collins
DW Griffith shit confirmed!
Isaiah Lee
Flaherty doesn't have any bluray release either
Ryan Ortiz
Robert Flaherty confirmed shit!

>David Greene is a New York basketball enthusiast, who wants to coach. He is then offered the coaching job at a small Nevada college. He brings along some players, who are a bit odd but good. Like Swish who unknown to the rest of the team is a girl. Preacher, who's being sought by some nefarious characters. And D.C., who's a fugitive. And along with some of the students at the college, he turns them into a contender. In order to give the team the respect they deserve and some exposure, Greene schemes to try and get the number 1 team led by Bo Winnegar, to play them.

Blake Jenkins
I would genuinely like to know why Sjostrom and Gance's 1910s flicks are liked so much. None of the people that give them high scores write reviews
Jordan Sanders
You have a serious mental illness.
Samuel Roberts
Why'd she give Judith 2 1/2?
Owen Foster
Because the Wikipedia article didn't say "art film" anywhere. And it was boooooooooooooooooooooooooooring :)
Ryder Baker
I would genuinely like to know why Sjostrom's 20's flicks are liked so much
Oliver Campbell
Noooo!!!!! The left is melodrama!!!! The right is ART!!!! GRIFFITH IS OUTDATED!!! THE 20'S ARE BETTER!!!
Samuel Anderson
>melodrama
Oops!!
Jackson Turner
You don't get it! Melodrama is good when the colors are really vivid and explanatory!! Griffith only used 1 tint!!!
Dylan Rodriguez
>melodrama this
>narrative this
Griffith may utilize similar devices, but he is neither any of those things. He is what, like many things, Ford stole and gets credit for. Layered reality. Griffith mastered realism, and mastered psychology. Then stripped them to bare humanity to essence. Motivation and ideology.
Aiden Allen
Eisenstein took note of this and adapted it to his directorial efforts
Henry Fisher
is irma vep worth a watch bois?
Christopher Morgan
Griffith, like Flaherty, knows conflict is everywhere. There is no such thing as non-conflict. It is a matter of representation. His conflicts are both direct and indirect. External and internal. Onscreen and offscreen.

Daniel Richardson
This list is far from perfect, but is still better than any subsequent one I've seen by anybody else.
Jose Russell

Brandon Hall
Titles that should removed altogether:
Brief Encounter
Le Jour Se Leve
Children of Paradise
Stagecoach
Threepenny Opera
