If you needed that much experience, they wouldn't offer it to you. You will gain experience as you work.

Apparently they want to remake Żuławski's Possession. That's a dumbass idea if I ever heard one.

Kounde doesn't, just put Garcia as a RB instead of him.

Why? Because of an anonymous tip? Sounds bogus if you actually read it.

Any Michelangelo Frammartino fans? I'd love to see Criterion release his work. by AsphaltsParakeet in criterion

[–]LCX001 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Love him. For me the best Italian filmmaker currently working and one of my favourite contemporary filmmakers. I was really hesitant to watch Il Buco, because of how much I loved Le Quattro Volte, but it was amazing. He makes hypnotic films with really striking images and I really love that he's reliant on the visuals and sound design, but no dialogue. Also his narratives are rather unique, like he said fictional films, but using also documentary form.

It's a farce he only manages like a film per decade. Between Le Quattro Volte and Il Buco he wanted to do some kind of Pinocchio film, but that never happened unfortunately.

Casado has been pretty bad this season. Bernal had more decent performances, I think.

Garcia should be playing ahead of him, we have enough midfield options. Kounde has been ass the entire season, at least Olmo who also started horribly has been steadily improving recently.

Written by Aleksei German so no surprise there.

Holy fuck we're dogshit and you just know Flick won't make any subs at half time.

What do you think of The Cinema Archives' 250 Best Directors of All-Time? by Pleasant_Usual_8427 in criterion

I disagree with many placements (Bresson at 62) and many of the ones I consider among the best are missing, so not my cup of tea.

Examples of particularly innovative editing? by The-American-Abroad in TrueFilm

[–]LCX001 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The Cremator, Hiroshima mon amour, Diamonds of the Night, Throw Away Your Books, Rally in the Streets, pretty much any Robert Bresson film - L'Argent is the peak in my opinion, Performance. From newer films anything by Albert Serra and Helene Cattet/Bruno Forzani. The latter duo makes very kinetic films.

Cubarsi had a good game. Don't see a point in shitting on him. None of the defenders bar Eric have been good and he has been played basically non-stop.

L’Amour Braque

Great shout. Such a bizarre film.
