Sana'a
Quoted from Rdoyle1978:To be fair, not even David Lynch REALLY knows what that movie is about. But it’s a fair shot more accessible than say, Lost Highway
He told me personally that it's a story about a ghost that does not know it's dead (I took all the pronouns out to not ruin the movie for someone who never saw it, LOL)
Quoted from TheLaw:Why did he tell you; you already knewm what it was aboot!
We were at a party and I told him it was my fav film by him and when I read Ebert's review, it was clear he did not understand it at all.
We both burst out laughing
Quoted from TheLaw:Crazy, where would he be without you to clue him in on small town movie reviewers' hot takes!
He'd be totally lost on the highways.
(btw, before he died, Ebert was probably the #1 movie critic in the States)
2 weeks later
Quoted from Pinstein:Can folks add an additional top 5 for international films?
5. Train To Busan (2016) Korea
4. A Clockwork Orange (1971) UK
3. Run Lola Run (1998) Germany
2. Urotsuki Doji (1989) Japan
1. Ichi The Killer (2001) Japan
Quoted from Monk:I feel like people are coming up
With movies that others don’t know, just to say how have you not seen that. You don’t know movies. Out of 5 movies I get having some that people don’t know, but 5 somewhat obscure movies seems like “look how much more I know than you”.
And that's a good thing.
Nobody wants to read 200 posts where everyone lists Citizen Kane, Shawshank, Shindler's List, and Godfather.
Those are knee-jerk answers from people who hate cinema.
I'd rather watch Polyester than slog through Birth Of A Nation, no matter how **groundbreaking** the critics say it is.
Quoted from mtn-:Thank you for reminding me about Polyester! Haha. Im gonna watch it later, and I hope its as funny as I remember it 25ish years ago. I just love movies with shoe obsessed perverts.
You will laugh 100x more about the Boston Foot Stomper, than you ever would from Duck Soup
