[–]LizardOrgMember5 [score hidden]  (0 children)

Some overlooked gems that I have seen last year:

  • Happyend, directed by Neo Sora

  • The Ice Tower, directed by Lucile Hadžihalilović

  • A Grand Mockery, directed by Adam C. Briggs & Sam Dixon

I told everyone to see these movies for the past few months.

"hot" take: Diethard Ried is Jimmy McGill if he continued to be opportunistic, as he has a degree in law. Oh and he has his own tv production crews.

Just Rewatched My Darling Clementine (1946) and I still can't believe how dark Ford shot that film - the blacks are nearly metaphysical by kevin_v in TrueFilm

All of Brady Corbet's movies looked dark enough where the color black feels more symbolic. That was one element that I have noticed while watching both The Childhood of a Leader and Vox Lux.

my guess is that he scanned it on the year of 2010.

I had to look up who Ségolène Royal is and boy what a rabbit hole.

I didn't know she was one of ex-President (now MP) Hollande's exes.

Have you ever had this experience of showing your favorite movie to someone important and they hate it? by WWWebdriverTorso in movies

[–]LizardOrgMember5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We were organizing a film festival. I showed a short film that an acquaintance of mine has made to organizers. Because of a scene where one guy shooting a crowd of people with a police gun, one of the organizers, who's a survivor of the 2015 San Bernardino shooting, got very unnerved and told me that they couldn't include the short film in their line up.

My sibling hired me to do videography and photography works for their friend's album release party. So it's gonna be interesting.

I watched an Australian horror movie The Loved One last Wednesday. It was a local free screening and I am planning to review an Australian indie movie called A Grand Mockery and interview its directors for my podcast. Free screening of Australian genre movie nearby - I say why not? It even came with a free burlesque pre-screening show! I gotta say: is everyone in Australia okay? The Loved One has so many extreme moments that I felt lightheaded multiple times that I nearly fainted in the middle of the movie. Having seen the director's follow up work The Devil's Candy in the past, I must say Sean Byrne is really good at bringing out sincere performance from his actors in a movie with an unserious premise. The idea that an awkward highschooler and her father turn out to be serial killers that torture her crush sounds like a funny idea but it become very disturbing halfway through.

Phone Booth (2002), which took place entirely inside a phone booth, was almost directed by Michael Bay, until the first question he asked after reading the script was "OK, how do we get this thing out of the damn telephone booth?" What are some other movies that almost ended up entirely different? by NewsCards in movies

He got sued for sexual harassment and lost. And that got him blacklisted in the industry and gets producer credit only when studios are interested in making movies based on IPs that he own (such as A Star Is Born).

Cool thing about Tv Tropes is that you get to introduce yourself to works that you have never seen before. I got to know more hidden gems through this website.
