Asking other people what art to enjoy certainly isn't "/fa/".

If you're a pleb, you'll enjoy pleb movies. If you're educated and have taste, you'll enjoy art films. You won't like something because you force yourself to watch it - since you won't understand it, intellectually and emotionally.

Can you recommend some art films to watch?
>>
>>10659528
I have not seen a single of these films, but why would my opinion matter to you? Should you allow someone's opinion to lessen your enjoyment?

>>10659529
Lynch - Mulholland Dr.
Tarkovsky - Stalker
Haneke - La Pianiste
Kurosawa - Rashomon
Eisenstein - Battleship Potemkin

I guess those are considered "entry level".

I really love Russel. If you haven't seen much of him, he is very similar to Fellini and Greenaway imo. Devils is so underrated because retarded WB is still "ashamed" of producing it. It's still censored and WB doesn't even want to bring blu ray out of it.
I have BFI edition of it and British Film Institute (that is state-funded if I remember correctly) tried to get in touch with WB about uncut release even offering them 100% of cash-return from sales or something like this. I don't understand why WB refused it.

What was the point of Rashomon? That meaning "truth" is just a matter of who we prefer to believe? What was the point of the scene with infant? Could you explain that movie to me?

Consider suicide m8 this movie is pure shit
>>
>>10659676
Well, I think the point is that people are crap because they can't stand up to truth and all believe in whatever they want to believe in (everybody tells in story showing him or her in a better light). In the end the monk, who basically lost all hope in humanity hearing all these lies see that there are still nice people out there. They aren't perfect because woodcutter clearly stolen the dagger and lied about it, but they can still do good things to redeem themselves.
That's how I see it.

>movies
movies aren't really /fa/, neither are flicks

try delving into film, cinéma and the occasional piece of kinography instead


Miami Vice = cinéma
Ali = film
Public Enemies = movie
Collateral = flick


here are some pointers:

- Plot is for babies; it is a visual medium, to be used as so
- Star Wars is for 5 year olds
- Digital Mann is superior to all other Mann, though Collateral is his most pleb film
- Stanley Kubrick is a slight step above pleb but nowhere near patrician
- Christopher Nolan is pleb tier director; none of his work reaches film status and often time delves into flick tier
- European Cinema is objectively better than other any cinema
- Book adaptations are pleb trash fit for only the unoriginal
- Steven Spielberg is intro to pleb tier; no argument can be made against this
- Animation is for children; kill yourself if you enjoy any of the sort and you are older than 10
- CGI is below pleb tier and is automatic filth
- Dialog is for babbies; it is a visual medium, to be used as so
- Naturalism is best style; everything else is commercial shit that are dated before they even leave the editing room. The first film that will be shown to patrician extraterrestrials will be from the realism school
- Remakes and sequels are cancer; no exceptions

>Book adaptations are pleb trash fit for only the unoriginal
Then why almost all of most important movies like Rashomon, Snasho The Bailiff, CLosely Observed Trains, Salo (and most of other Pasolini movies) are adaptations?

why cant the visual medium animated?
>>
>>10659904
movie means "moving picture(s). Animation are moving pictures. Animation are movies. The other anon is pseudo-cineaste. No knowledge, but shitting out as much "professional" knowledge as possible. I bet he is one of guy at Letterboxd who delte movies out of their favorites because they either were watched by more than 200 people or getting Criterion release.
>>
>>10659676
>Could you explain that movie to me?

It shows how ultimately even the people bad-mouthing the "bad people" are bad themselves - everyone is "sinful".

The great point I think is the contrast between story and reality - the two great swordsmen fighting over a honorable maiden, contrasted with a dilemma between 2 cowards and an utilitarian woman. It has very many other points - such as the hateful toxic "oh so noble" samurai, etc.

The strict story telling mode - trial and baby scene is also very enjoyable to watch.
>>
holy shit you guys are vapid

so you guys would rather watch a movie that other people think are /fa/, even if you don't like it, so you can appear to be cultuured, in lieu of actually

how about you watch more movies, then decide which ones you like? how about you experiment... find something you like... look for more like it... and really try to understand why you liked them and moreover what you want to see in movies. nothing is more /fa/ than having your own opinions and being able to discuss/defend them at length because you genuinely believe them.

and if youre' trying to make a thread for recs, got to fucking /tv/. this cross-board bullshit is going too fuckign far.

Nothing. Criterion is best thing along with Arrow Video that happened to home video market. They do what studios don't - care about non-profitable yet important movies.
What I meant are these hipsters eho hate Criterion because whatever movie they release actually gets viewers (which is very important thing Criterion does - introduces people to world cinema) so that they can't beling to their elitist "only 10 people saw this" club.
>>
>>10660651
That's what I was looking for, the reasoning why you would think such a psuedo cinephile would hate criterion, even though they have done gods work, figuratively and literally. Thanks for the answer, didn't know they only restored the more niche works of the market.
