>Greatest directors/writers currently working today.
Prove me wrong
They have to step up their game after Hail Caesar
they peaked with Miller's Crossing. The only great movie they've made since is Inside Llewyn Davis

I don't get what was so bad about it, I thought it was amazing.
>>69826725
they're so fucking based it literally isn't fair

I hate that i dont like their work.
It seems like im missing something cause most people really love their films but i seriously cant stand it.
I love the Coen brothers but Hail Caesar! was a piece of shit.
Among them, certainly, but Kiarostami and Malick are still working.
Hail Caesar was fine. Funny, very good, astute parody of that era of Hollywood. Somehow lost on memellenials.
>>69826804
I bet you enjoy the films of Wes Anderson

Did you know Boyhood took 12 years to make? That's amazing!
>>69826725
Don't like him !?
>>69826804
They are the master of the narrative !!!
>>69827640
KekNo. Each film is worse than the last.
>>69827679
He peaked with There Will Be Blood. His next 20 years will be his sad fade into obscurity.

Have you checked "Searching for Bobby Fischer" ? This dude really knows a work of the adaptation!!
>>69826845
Big Lebowski, you twit.
>>69828040
>lets just ignore the rest of his filmography because of memes!
>>69827679
One of the best auteurs working today. He keeps changing his style - both narratively in what stories he chooses and technically - going from his own Altmanesque style of showy camera movements, then to a restrained Kubrick.
>>69826725
Don't like Corkiness, anon ???
>>69828106
They're teenagers regurgitating a stupid redlettermedia joke because they can't come up with one themselves. Memes! xD
>>69827995
You are telling me this one is bad ?

I can't.

>>69828106
You mean like School of Rock?
>>69828154
Awesome !!!
>>69828286
Not the guy you're replying to, but yes, this movie is awful.
>>69826725
When are they changing their gender?

He couldn't watch it because it was rated r.

What did I even expect. This board needs to be cleansed of fucking milennials.
>>69826725
I heard this lady is making quite buzz at the Cannes this year. Don't like her !?
>>69826725
what is the Wachowski sisters
>>69827679
Amazing, and I disagree with him peaking at TWBB. I think that was the start of his upswing, and he's only gotten better with each film since
>>69828602
>>>>>>>>>>speed racer
>>69828452
Ohhh... I tried beef up this thread!! Geezas (〃￣ω￣)
>>69828286
Not bad, but definitely not good. And comes nowhere close to his previous films.
Coen Bros are so fucking good they made the Wachowski Bros turn into the Wachowski Sisters because they knew they could not compete with the Coen Bros, forcing them to move to the sisters making movies together as opposed to the brothers making movies gimmick.
>>69828638
>>69828612
>the start of his upswing
>not Boogie Nights
>>69828381
They need her permission to goof around Y'know!?!?
>>69828718
Of course that's his beginning, but I wasn't a huge fan of Boogie Nights, and the two that came after were only alright
i like em
>>69828748
Why's that?
>>69826725
Don't you ever leave this guy out "Chiraq" was awesome effort !!!

One of the most important theme throughout their career is characters trying to understand the absurd world that they live in. Every script is meticulously writen.They use melancholy music to contrast the absurd world and dark plots that are happening on screen. Another way that CB use soundtrack in each of their films is to design soundscapes to give the feeling of emptiness. The final way is use lyrics to comment on theme of the film. Over the course of their career there has been certain writing choices that have become quite common in their films. One of these is to present all character as having flaws, another is to use a lot of film noir elements in film plots, use of dream sequences ect. They like to experiment with genre as well, so for example in film noirs of the 40s the most remembered thing is use of dark imagery and shadow, and in a film like Fargo all of shadows are replaced by white snow. Or in a film like MC instead of getting gangster who rises to the top and wants more and eventually leads to his own dawnfall, what we have is a character who doesn't push he just listens and watches. And in the end we can look at the way that CB break the conventional screenwriting rules. In tipical script audience is expect to see that people who do good things are rewarded in the end, and people who do bad things will be punished. But in BAR all these rules are broken. All the character who preforme selfish and bad acts get away cleanly and all the good character end up dying. In terms of ILD we have another example of screenplay writing being turn on its head. In 2005 B.S. wrote the book about screenwriting called "Save The Cat" and the whole point of the title is that you're supposed to show the character early on in the film saving a cat so that way through out the film the audience will side with them, but in ILD, Davis constantly trys to save the cat and constantly fails.
