ITT: we post pure Kino.
>Pi (1998)
Seriously though, what is the difference between a kino and a movie?
>>70609875
Kino is Art.
Movie is some fun flick
>>70609543
Yesterday I was watching a directors roundtable that had Aronofsky in it, and he admitted to being embarrassed of Pi.

Best Score.

Normal Americans call it movie, normal Europeans call it film, autists call it kino. It's all basically the same thing.
>>70609964
It is a little pretentious, but I think that is what adds to the charm.
>>70610041
It's film student tier. Sure, for a first feature it's amazing, but compared to any of Arronofsky later work it's trash.

Is Lawrence of Arabia the GOAT?
>>70610476
You can do better anon
>>70610435
He was a good friend
I Stand Alone (1998)
>>70610615
Kek I wish they'd just cast and Arab guy for that role.
>>70610698
Agreed. All equal opportunity shit aside, it just looks dumb.
>>70610763
You do know that today is just a response to history, right?
>>70610889
i don't think i follow, could you elaborate?
This meme was never funny
Why are all of /tv/'s memes so shit?
>>70610954
Stop whining and post a movie or fuck off
>>70610949
Here's Catherine Hepburn as an asian.
They didn't want/couldn't hire minorities in Hollywood before, so white people played all the roles.
>>70611053
Except there's a massive amount of them in Lawrence of Arabia. For some reason Alec Guiness plays the Arab prince. He looks really out of place.
Much of this shit is hilarious in retrospect, but it shows you where the industry comes from.
Trying to push minorities into roles is the logical response now.
>>70611053
but what are you trying to say with 'today is just a response to history'?
did you mean that all the minority casting and SJW stuff going on today is just trying to make up for the lack of casting of minorities in the past?
>>70611116
Yes, without any big roles. Omar admittedly plays a large one, but he's British and Quinn is American.
Hiring actual minorities as anything more than extras was VERBOTEN of the highest order.
>>70611139
I think that was his meaning
>>70611139
I'm saying it's a natural evolution of the industry.
Have some Christopher Lee as FU MAN CHU
I just love these.
>>70610763
>>70610698
>wanting to watch some filthy dune coon instead of Genuine Class
The purest of kino
>>70611246
He wasn't a convincing Arab in the slightest. Took me out of the film
>>70611118
>pushing minorities into roles
i dont' think you have ill intent with this phrase but I think it's more of a return to the natural equilibrium than a 'push'
this
THE GOAT
Is there more pure horror kino than Begotten?

>>70611386

>>70611282
To be honest tho, he played Faisal very well.
>>70611333
I think if you're going to be making a movie for white audiences, which is what most studios do because white people just have the most amount of dispensable income, then you shouldn't try to play "oh we're trying to represent everyone". Making a white movie? Do your all white cast, and live with your choices.
One of the big problems I perceive with the shoving of minorities into white projects is the fact that minorities are always playing sidekick and minor roles. Over time, this has ingrained (and this might have been the intent) into everyone's minds that the important and most talented people are always white, and the token niggers, asians or otherwise are just there as their subordinates.
Here, have a black Angelina Jolie.
I personally think that it was okay that Faisal was played by Alec. But by the same token, blacks and asians ought to be able to play white characters too if they're good for the part.
But we can't have that.
>>70611500
Nah. Just have actors play characters that are their actual race. I don't wan't Jolie playing a black person because it looks fucking retarded. I don't wan't an asian playing a white person for the same reason.
>>70611400
Yes, Repulsion.
>>70611500
why are white people so scared of seeing other races in their movies? Don't you want the best actor to get the job?
For characters with pre-set ethnicities, play them as they were. But for new characters, wouldn't you want the very best actor instead of just the best white actor.
I see what you mean about sidekick minor roles, but tht'as only a product of your wish for white people to be mains in movies. And fuck, when rogue 1 had a female as their lead 4chan freaked out.
>>70611400
I got hard watching Begotten
