What are your thoughts on avant-garde filmmaking? What's your favorites?
It's pure trash, but I have some affection for Bunuel's later work. Phantom of Liberty and Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie.
I would post in this thread but I'm going out for food and then I have classes.
Keep this alive for another 4 hours and I would love to take part in discussion. I've just been getting into avant-garde lately and I've found it incredibly rewarding

most David Lynch
even Linklater applies unless some hipster comes in here that Avant Garde is a special special genre rather than any film that experiments

Uninspired drivel fed to the pen full of pretentious college undergraduates wearing all black.
I prefer motion picture that actually has inherent cohesive structure instead of "DUDE DEEP VISUAL SUBJECTION LMAO".
It stands for what every good film maker or admirer is against.

Here, have some Jan Svankmajer.
Most of his animated shorts are even kinda funny:

In general, avant-garde animation can be pretty darn weird though:

No thanks.
Go ahead, wank over an being cut while contemplating how cool you will look to your friends online when you say how much of an "avant-garde film fan" you are, I'm just clearly portraying you for what you are, insecure pretentious egotistical mongoloids that cream your pants over what other wank stains consider "though provoking". Hope you got your black turtle neck, beret, oak pipe with American Spirit organic tobacco and bongo at hand.

Mariola Brillowska is actually Polish and has been living in Germany for decades now.
As a matter of fact she only started doing animation work after moving to Germany.

Hey! The thread's still up, anyone here like to discuss? I think we should first try to determine what counts as avant-garde though. When I think of the term I am imagining more conceptual works than films like >>62894986
(though I love WR)

ONLY A FEW MORE MINUTES

He's right though, Un Chien Andalou is trash compared to Buñuel's later work.
>>62893317
well I watched them but I don't know if I found it Incredibly Rewarding like >>62889750
