Movies not many people have seen or heard of, but you won't be able to discuss any of these movies with another people who aren't pretentious assholes. So theres no point really

Remember, to be a true patrician on Sup Forums you must not ever post any film you like or your taste at all, just make sure to call everyone a tasteless cinemalet over and over again

...

None. Film is a pleb medium through and through.

First watch a bunch of terrible movies, only then will you be able to truly appreciate great movies, unless it turns out you are pleb.

Film is unironically the highest form of art.
It actually contains all the other art forms in all the filmmaking elements, from fashion, architecture, design to music, photography, the writing and performances.
With film, you can express your idea in just one single frame through framing and composition, the performance, production design, sound
etc, while with for example books you have to use multiple sentences just to set up the scene and for the viewer to grasp what's happening. Reading words linearly is not ideal, film is just much more efficient. Also with film you get an exact fixed artistic expression that can’t be changed, while with books it's entirely different with every single person because they all self impose their own pacing while reading, some read a book in a day some in a month, with films you get the exact experience the artist intended.

Now that doesn't mean everyone uses the medium to it's maximum potential, but it has a far greater potential than any other art form.

Whomst made this chart should hang himself by the neck.

Terrible underage pasta.

start with the American Film Institute list and go on from the there

Be that as it may, do you have any recommendations?
Thanks, I'll check some of this out.
If this chart sucks so hard, what would you recommend?

holy shit, is this what this place does to you? you managed to write such a word soup of Sup Forums buzzwords and said absolutely nothing meaningful. there might be a good argument to be made on why this list is a bad introduction to arthouse cinema (even though these are all highly praised films) but you are nowhere near making one. please go and read something other than Sup Forums threads if you want to actually be able to make a sound argument in a discussion.

...

100% truth

>Suspiria
hell ye

>If this chart sucks so hard, what would you recommend?
The movies are good, they just don't belong on the same chart. Start with Bergman (D3), drop Brakhage, Sayat Nova and Matsumoto, replace Redditmeister Harmoniak with Satantango.

Challenge yourself to watch things you might think of as boring. Older films that are important. Foreign films. Get outside the blockbuster mentality, but find a niche that interests you. Genre films are fine. you don't have to go full art house but explore.

>being this buttblasted someone dared call out your shitty chart
The greentext very precisely expresses the reason this is bad. Now shooh, rebbit.

>mfw I've only seen two films from that list: The Holy Mountain and Blade Runner

>true patrician
>only watch seinfeld

you can't appreciate great movies without watching a bunch of mediocre ones

>drop Brakhage

This isn't a menstrual studies freshman mixer and I'm not some 6/10 drunk brapperina easily impressed by namedropping Dog Star Man or Brief Glimpses of Beauty. Take your entry level reddit-garde elsewhere, pleb.

pic unrelated

brakhage is a very important artist and theorist of the XXth century, to think otherwise is just limited

First you need to watch all of these, very basic entry level movies you need to escape plebism

Yes, and Stockhausen is the most important composer in history of music. We were all retarded teenagers once user, just don't stay like this forever.

i'm just concerned with the quality of discourse on this board

Fallen Angels

growing up doesn't mean giving in to shit taste.
art exists

I can smell the tinned spaghetti stains on your fedora from here

>all of the best films are based on literature

hmmm

Growing up means developing authentic personal taste instead of being a cookie-cutter avant-teen full of memorized prefab opinions.

/letterboxd/ is here. thread ruined.

>calling an inherent incapacity of enjoying brakhage's work the alternative against "prefab opinions"
wew lad

>arguing with your own straw men
Nowhere did I say I don't enjoy Brakhage's work.
>inherent
Stop clumsily parroting words you don't understand.
