Is there any movie with more well developed characters and better acting?

Several
I mean I haven't seem all of them but they exist
>>64219595
The thing that I found fascinating about this movie is even though it had basically no plot I was never bored
What was wrong with Freddie? Was he mentally impaired? He saw through Master's bullshit.

Did they ever really play it as being bullshit though? In all the interviews PTA and PSH talk about how the Cause was actually really helping people and wasn't at all negative or cultish at that point in time
dude sex is funny lmao

There was that one scene where some random guy criticized the Cause and asked Master if he had any proof to back up his miraculous claims. Instead of give evidence to why the Cause's beliefs are solid Master flips the fuck out and calls the guy "PIG FUCK!". That set off my bullshit alarm pretty quick

that's true I think I need to rewatch it
>>64219595
That scene had my favorite line of the movie, "I like Kools...they're minty."

They had to keep redoing it because PSH kept screwing up. That's why even though Freddie just opened a pack, in the next shot you several burnt cigs in the ash tray
>>64219595
but the master doesn't develop the characters at all. that is part of the charm of the movie. the plot is thin, the characters are never developed, and the story meanders.

Rob Ager used to have a really good dissection of the characters on his YT channel but that fuckface rotates his videos out too much so it's not there any more

He does a lot of cool and in-depth dissertations on movies
Freddie wasn't well developed at all
They never even try to explain what makes him tick. Why is he obsessed with sex? Because he fucked his Aunt when he was drunk? Was he crazy BEFORE the war or AFTER? If he was crazy before the war how did he manage to get some normal chick interested in him? Wouldn't he have been smearing his feces around and masturbating in public already? Why did he even care about her that much? Why didn't he go back what changed him in the war? Did he have a drinking problem before the war of after? I find it hard to care about a character you end up knowing so little about. I don't even know his motivations. He never seems to buy into the cult for a second, but then after that he does he splits almost immediately.
And don't get me started on the Master we don't get into him at all or any of his motivations or even beyond his fake persona. The premise for this movie was so great. "A former GI loses meaning in life and goes to a cult for the answers" but it seems like everything was completely botched.
I'd say there were three amazing scenes in this movie that PTA wanted to do and the rest was just meaningless filler.

his clockwork orange video was pure gold, I used to think he was a hack, but after that I started drinking the kool aid.
I wonder if he'll ever put it up again.
>>64224402
was he the one that made the 2001 series
>>64219595
Turns out the master is his wife and Freddie is more masterful than cokeman since he can go on his bike wherever he wants
10/10 movie
