The trickster.

Film is the language of dreams…of course the leftist hack thinks all movies should be verbose and unwatchable political screeds. Godard is so overrated and his jealousy of far greater filmmakers is laughable. He wasn’t even the best “New Wave” director. Demy, Varda, and Resnais understood the language of film much better than Godard. And spare me those quick “edits” in Breathless as if he invented the wheel. Take any Kubrick, Hitchcock, Kurosawa, or Bergman film and they’re doing things Godard could never conceive of. Just look at all the novel film inventions in Citizen Kane…Wells practically invented modern filmmaking but we’re supposed to be impressed by some jump cuts in Breathless?!? GMAFB. Godard is the quintessential pretentious director for pretentious cinephiles. FIN

Jean-Luc Godard on why he didn't like the movies of David Lynch: "Ah, I really don't like his style at all. Lynch's dreams only speak of him. In my opinion, in his films, there are beautiful images, from a photographic point of view, and yet the image has disappeared. On the enigma of the dream, the oneiric of life, I prefer to read Edgar Poe. I have nothing against dreams. It's part of yourself. I don't know if it should be used for making movies. What matters, I would rather say, is the derivation and observation of the world. The New Wave came from the desire to accept fiction through documentary. In my opinion, the two can only go together."

@zacncomics Make a new take on a classic character: "So that's kind of the process through which I try to travel when I make a new take on a classic villain. What are they about? What does it mean to me? How do I employ that or weaponize that in the book as strongly as possible?"

Scott Snyder on his take on Scarecrow in Absolute Batman. This is honestly so deep. I am so excited for this arc.

@mikra_namani Tell me more.

Why this novel never surfaces as one of the greatest in the last 20+ years is not a great mystery given the State of Literary Discourse

@MerriamWebster @learning_yohei

@learning_yohei Second one.

As a Japanese person learning English, which one should I write?😵‍💫

Keyword is LIGHT. TEXTURE I get. GRAVITY? Is GRAVITY common film vocabulary?

@photonisdead What an artist chooses to notice is already a self portrait.

@photonisdead Truly, there's the story we tell and then there is the story that our story tells.

all art is a self portrait of the artist

I missed whatever the stakes of the hearings were and because of that I didn't understand the relevancy of any scene, lol. It felt like scene after scene of: "Wow, you're Oppenheimer!" "Do they know your ethnic background?" "Do they know your politics?" "Nazis!" What interested me: how the opening quote frames the narrative and how "chained to a rock and tortured" may be illustrated by the narrative. how Nolan visualizes the ideas/physics. how the two narratives (Fission & Fusion) serve as a single narrative. Don't know when I'll finish OPPENHEIMER, but I've seen enough to know that the desire will come when the time is right.

@JasonianPress @filmstofilms_ But you! What are your takes or opinions?!

What’s the best movie from this list?

@fferkly2 @filmstofilms_ I know my experience would have be different if I would have seen it in theaters, but watching on my phone while in bed 🫠

@JasonianPress @filmstofilms_ Finally liking a movie from Nolan after the Batman trilogy hahaha kidding but I was like amazed for what I see and feel I was hyper excited. And in the same day I watched Barbie too!

Seen LOVE STREAMS (1984) once, almost two decades ago; couldn't tell you what it's about, but this moment has stayed with me.

Finish this unofficial trilogy. Setting: Los Angeles, CA Protagonist: ...
