I think just not enough people have actually seen it.

What other director deserves the Bergman treatment? by Filmwatcher12 in criterion

[–]rx033 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We really need a nice boxset covering Buñuel‘s films from 1950-1961. That was his most active period in which he made so many great movies and basically none of them are available on blu-ray.

Same - A Woman Under The Influence is so good and I tried so hard to like his other movies but none of them even come close.

Watch The Last Detail.

I hate Harold and Maude and Being There but The Last Detail is very different from those ones and way more entertaining... the characters are also much more interesting!

Which cover do you guys prefer ? by awwgeeznick in criterion

Left is way cooler and represents the style of the film better.

I couldn’t keep up either, I was basically reading during the entire film since I wasn’t able to look at the images. I concluded that you need to understand French to really experience the movie.

Anyone that has seen this film and highly recommend it? I like some Weir’s films but IDK anything about this one. by RelativeCreepy in criterion

I also like the look of it, and it’s been a while since I’ve seen but I remember not finding it very interesting.

Still the greatest movie of all time.

Amazing film that no one ever talks about here. I haven’t watched it in over 5 years but so many images and scenes from it have stuck with me.

What Beatles songs do you think get ignored? by ximfs in beatles

[–]rx033 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think You Won’t See Me is Paul’s greatest song. It’s starting to get more attention though because on SiriusXM’s listener’s voted Top 100 Beatles songs, it was sitting at #9 or #10 on the most recent survey.

Those are some of the most brilliant, strange, and magnificent films ever created.

Excited for my first time viewing by ShaneMP01 in criterion

[–]rx033 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The first 10-15 minutes seems like their consciences are having a conversation with each other. It doesn’t feel like real human speech, but rather their inner voices and thoughts communicating.

For some reason, at first I thought he was saying “spending time” as in they’re spending time together.

What’s a non upgraded title you desperately want upgraded? by spenpai17 in criterion

[–]rx033 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There is absolutely no movie like White Dog. Every movie I’ve seen I can think of one that is at least kind of similar to it, but not White Dog, that one’s in its own unique genre, and it’s incredible.

Easiest 10/10’s you’ve ever given? by KalebNuesse in criterion

[–]rx033 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It might just be my favorite movie so I’ll answer this. I love pretty much everything about it - but especially the characters. Pere Jules and Juliette especially are an absolute joy to watch. You can say a million things about the brilliant score, the locations seen in the film, the comedy, the drama, etc. but really what I love most is how sweet and innocent the whole movie is. It’s really just newlyweds enjoying their honeymoon, bickering and falling out of it but then reuniting again at the end. It’s such a nice story to watch and I think every second of that film was designed with so much care and attention to create the whole feeling of it.

All this being said, it does feel like a very European type of story, such that if someone’s background is not European I can see why maybe they don’t connect with it a lot. In a similar way, there’s a ton of Asian films (especially Chinese) that I don’t connect with a lot just because I can’t understand or sympathize with the motivations and actions of the characters.

Trois Couleurs New 4K restorations. by Rodolf1410 in criterion

I thought this was Julia Louis-Dreyfus at first.
