Don't mind me, I'm fairly new to film, so while I do believe I sort of know what's good and what's not, I've yet to see so much. I say this because the exclusion of names like Tarkovsky or Fellini are not because I prefer others, but because I've yet to see them.

That's too bad. I'm not the biggest fan of his older stuff, but it's his last three films that have me hooked. Try giving them another watch. I liked There Will Be Blood right away, but both The Master and Inherent Vice were films that I adamantly dislike the first go around, but now absolutely love
>>70275520
Interesting, I disagree with you about the acting for sure, maybe the writing as well. I also found it much nicer to look at.

Your screencap is a perfect example of why I find Mann aesthetically repulsive. His shit composition, his editing, his direction of actors, all give off a vibe of perpetual "offness". If you had to say Mann has any style at all, it's a kind of uncanny valley of filmmaking. Whenever I rewatch parts of his films, it feels as if someone made a movie and purposely tried to hit all the wrong notes.

I find it difficult to describe but that's probably due to Mann's inherent emptiness. Heat, Miami Vice, Public Enemies, Blackhat, etc. are like something that hollowed out actual films and is wearing their skin.

There should be a precedent that filmmakers be barred from making films after they become senile, lest they tarnish their legacy. Ridley Scott would have benefited from this as well

>D.W. Griffith is the 38th parallel of cinema. On each side of his filmography lives two separate epochs of movies. In the interest of full disclosure, I have to admit that I love Griffith. I go to a local restaurant here in town because he loved to eat there whenever he was in Santa Clarita. I imagine that the food and service must have been better there in the 1910s but I still go there as often as possible because it’s where he was.

It's badly written but I didn't know how to put how important Griffith is to movies. He's not given the credit he deserves because one half of one movies is racist. He, along with other pioneering directors for sure, created the language of film we have today and The Birth of a Nation put all these techniques together in one film and put it in front of a wide audience for the first time. The Birth of a Nation, Intolerence, Way Down East, Broken Blossom, are all amazing.

Griffith is the inventor of nothing, he just organized it and put it on the mainstream, yeah he's important but dont come with this history of ccinema 101 condenscending talk like he's one of the greatest ever when all he did was suck up to some italian guys
"half of one movie is racist"
Yeah, thats not it, the whole movie is racist and the reason often ignore Griffith is because classic cinema has aged like shit and the only watchable things made back in those days are the russians and some yrupeans and asia, nothing worth was ever made in america till diary cinema

Whether he did something first or not is irrelevant. His aesthetic is unique and original.

>i've never seen cabiria
>>
>>70286295
You're right, I haven't and there are many other films I haven't seen, either. Even if he was influenced by it, it doesn't have any bearing on whether he has a powerful aesthetic or not. If Giovanni Pastrone is as great as Griffith, that's great. Influence doesn't diminish an achievement.

Eseinstein idea of editing was the opposite of Grifiths and Vertov was against the romantic idea of cinema, read his kinocs texts and you'll see
>>
>>70286450
You're a moron. So Wagner isn't an innovative composer because he didn't invent the idea of opera? Look at the pre-1915 work of Griffith and Bitzer. They were creating the techniques that others would use years before they made Birth of a Nation. Even if they weren't inventing those techniques, which they were, they put them all together to create the long form narrative movie that is now standard. That's a huge deal that only became standard after Birth of a Nation. Those Soviet directors that you brought up were heavily influenced by Griffith, just read interviews by them.
