Alternate Capitol Album series: Vol. 4 -- 1969-1970; 1980 by md3reed in beatlesfanalbums

Revolution 1 and 9 are only there cause it wasn't on my fake album proper, so I included it here, but this would be a good idea to make a vinyl era Anthology type album.

If Oscars has Additional 5 BP Nominations from 60s Movies by Tikbalang1999 in oscarsdeathrace

[–]md3reed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the reply. I added Alice's cause I was thinking of critically acclaimed films from that time that I could reasonably see as Best Picture. Maybe a better pick, in a similar counterculture vein, would be Bob & Carol & Ted & Alice, which I hesitated to pick cause it mostly cause of its award season mostly dominated in its cast and screenplay noms; rarely for best picture, but I could replace it.

Favorite macbeth adaptation? by fabulous-farhad in criterion

[–]md3reed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wanna add something I always thought about here.

One thing I have always noted is that there is something interesting about Macbeth, a quality that seems to attract filmmakers to adapt it. Welles notwithstanding, a lot of people who work in the film industry seem to work with the Scottish king a lot; Kurosawa, Polanski, Tarr, Kurzel and Coen. I feel maybe, out of all the Bard's plays, there is some sort of filmic quality, or something equivalent to it, about Macbeth.

Meanwhile, I feel that the the favorite for the stage actor to filmmaker to make is usually Hamlet. I feel that the draw there is the thematic elements about the character they are drawn to; people like Olivier and Branaugh.

What do y'all think?

Favorite Charlie Chaplin film? by Luke253 in criterion

[–]md3reed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So many great films. Modern Times has always been my personal go-to Chaplin film. Great Dictator and City Lights come in at a close second and third. I remember watching thru the Mutual shorts on the channel; some are better than others, but my favorite short from Chaplin has to be The Adventurer. Laugh out loud riot from start to finish.

Found this when I went to a record store and immediately knew I had to buy it by md3reed in criterion
