i’m surprised roy andersson didn’t kill himself after making this

am i crazy or does this short not actually suggest that the HIV virus originated in a U.S. military lab, as i keep reading? is that a deleted scene or something?

the submarine scene is a top 3 m:i set piece

i’m not 100% sure, but i don’t think tom shoots or even holds a single gun in the whole film? which is huge if true

here’s my mission improbable ranking if you care. feel free to debate me in the replies (i won’t respond)

this whole film/series hinges on the idea that a guy is carrying a key worth 4 million dollars in cryptocurrency (plus a usb carrying said 4 million in cryptocurrency) in the chest pocket of his suit

”we both know you’re a good pickpocket. let’s see what kind of put-pocket you are.”

it also hinges on the idea that two of said key remain in the side pant pocket of a guy as he climbs on top of a moving train, gets down on his belly on that train, swings on the side of the train with a knife and does a drop kick, gets back up on the train, engages in a fist fight, gets knocked down, gets up again, and jumps off the train with the keys still in his pocket

ethan says that this was his first time in venice, and i just refuse to believe that

part 1 by ermanno olmi: amateurish, over-acted, old man drivel. made me hate cinema for a bit

part 2 by abbas kiarostami: i’d throw that bitch off the train

part 3 by ken loach: a simple morality play that grew on me as it went along. those boys were incredible. though i’d probably throw them off too

___________
i actually thought the 50-minute making off was more interesting than the film itself lmao

maybe it’s because i’m still on that big screen 35 mil’ high but i thought this was a god-tier reel of american photographic film. why do people never talk about strange days??? this is like total recall, ghost in the shell, minority report, and the 1992 los angeles riots all rolled into one and GOOD

ralph fiennes more like ralph FINE God dAMN i had no idea. we NEED to bring back blockbuster protagonists who are greasy and sweaty and bloody and bruised and move like snakes or perhaps worms. i’m tired of this glen powell BULLshit. i love me a protagonist that gets beaten up and tossed around in damn near every scene but still persists. that’s why blade runner is so cool

Interviewer: Water in your movies is as scarce as women are.
Kiarostami: Well, I think too much of either one can cause suffocation!

that odd joke(?) aside, this is easily the best kiarostami doc that i’ve seen so far. it’s just kiarostami leisurely walking along a body of water taking rainy landscape photos and honestly answering questions from film scholar jamsheed akrami as the cameraman seemingly plays around with the zoom feature on his digital camera

not as violent, heart-wrenching, or heartfelt as i would’ve liked. maybe it’s the language barrier, the non-linear structure, or the limited use of a score, but i just couldn’t emotionally connect with this one

uncomfy big screen watch i gotta say

you can’t go to a kiarostami screening without overhearing someone a row over explaining the plot of Close-Up to a newcomer

"Never. Oh, never—nothing will die. The stream flows; the wind blows; the cloud fleets; the heart beats. Nothing will die."

i've always thought that one of the greatest and most effective cuts in film history, behind the Lawrence of Arabia match(stick) cut, is when Anthony Hopkins says "you can speak." and they quickly cut to the clock tower.

…which i just realized might be because Lawrence of Arabia and The Elephant Man were CUT BY THE SAME WOMAN!  Anne V. Coates!

she was apparently also one of the editors on Fifty Shades of Grey. wow, what a career. RIP to a hero

what an asshole

i can't really say i followed the in-movie plot towards the end there as i kinda snoozed off (my first for a kiarostami film!), but i don't think that really matters as the actresses themselves weren't even (fake) reacting to the story being told, which kinda just makes me wonder what exactly kiarostami's thesis was. now it just reads as kiarostami making an elaborate screen test to see which iranian actress (plus juliette binoche) can cry the prettiest.

or, in a more cynical reading following mania akbari's accusations of kiarostami in 2022, it reads as kiarostami trying to work with and win the favor of as many professional iranian actresses as he can in order to protect himself were mania to have come out with her truth earlier than she did.

This review may contain spoilers.

i wish it was scarier! and had more of a central character! they clearly intended sammie to be the protagonist as it starts and ends with him, so why do they keep cutting away from him? and did we really need the scene with the vampire seeking shelter at the klan ’ house? wouldn’t it have been more suspenseful for his introduction to have been AT the juke t? with the audience not knowing his true intentions, just like the characters? 

but if you really wanted to have that dramatic irony, then i think they should’ve introduced the vampire much earlier, so the audience knows there’s an otherworldly evil lurking in the shadows. you could maybe even have the vampire ”disappear” some white and/or black folks in the beginning? or before the movie starts? so there’s already some tension in the air? or maybe not in THIS town but in a town a few miles over? you know what i mean? now it just kinda feels like the film shifts into fantasy horror-mode out of nowhere. it’s only really that expository opening scene that hints at any spooky stuff to come.

i also gotta say that my excitement for the film plummeted when i realized that the rest of the film was just going to take place in real-time in the juke t, with the opening flashforward teasing the END of the film as opposed to the midpoint. i wanted to see them wait it out and regroup in the morning! i wanted them to look for the vampires’ hideout during the day, think of new plans (to stay and fight? or leave and hide?), maybe fortify the t First Blood-style, lure the kkk there for the vamps as a distraction, idk, just something ”more”. i was not aware that the latter half of Sinners was a siege film à la Green Room. i need to rewatch it now with that in mind from the get-go.

i also don’t really know how to feel about films that do sentimental flashbacks to scenes that happened just an hour earlier. it’s like, yeah, i that, i just saw it. i also think some things were a bit clumsily done? like grace and bo’s arc, as shown by film twitter/threads/bluesky having had a bit too many covid-era anti-asian posts with thousands of likes on there for the last week. it’s never a good look when the writer/director has to make clarifications in interviews about how they don’t wish for their depiction of minorities to be misconstrued.

but other than all of that i thought Sinners was a great time at the movies! it’s a fun, sometimes dumb, genre mishmash with memorable characters, performances, and standout musical elements. i went right after sunset for the optimal viewing experience, as i believe everyone should.

is this michael b. jordan’s best role(s) so far?? i legitimately forgot he was playing stack as i was watching it. i only recognized him as smoke.

ONE FINAL THING. and maybe this is a bit insensitive, but, you had a movie that features vampires, devils, the KKK, AND a character nicknamed Preacher Boy… and you didn’t show any imagery of burning crosses??

”According to Boyle, the funnel shape of the [space suit] helmet was influenced by the character Kenny from South Park.”

this is the most simon & garfunkel-coded movie. whoever scheduled the cinemateket programme and chose to screen this half an hour after my own private idaho; bravo. two american road movies about male-on-male relationships where one party is more reluctant than the other to take the relationship further, both featuring some of cinema’s greatest campfire confessions scenes. 

Old Joy: I miss you, Mark. I miss you really, really bad. I want us to be real friends again. There’s something between us, and I don’t like it. I want it to go away.

My Own Private Idaho: I’d like to talk with you. I mean, I’d really like to talk with you. […] I really want to kiss you, man.

i’ve never wanted to gatekeep a film more in my life than my own private idaho. this is MY movie and no one else is allowed to watch it. 

all the gorgeous scratches and dust and dirt of the old print only enhanced it. i never want to watch the remastered version ever again. the campfire scene is so much more warm with all the flickering white dust specks looking like little sparks 〜 ݁₊𖥔.⊹

some of my favorite pieces of trivia from imdb:

River Phoenix wrote the campfire scene in private, on little scraps of paper. Gus Van Sant was under the impression that he had been writing song lyrics, and was surprised when River told him he'd re-written the scene. Van Sant liked what River presented, but didn't know if Keanu Reeves would be up for it. River assured him that he'd already privately talked to Keanu about it, and he was fine with everything. Gus Van Sant says he had to give complete faith to River, since he was completely left out of the loop on the whole scene.

This film was the result of three projects coming together. The first was a modern adaptation of Henry IV called "Howling At The Moon", about street kids in Portland, written entirely in Shakespearean verse. The second was "In A Blue Funk", about two Spanish cousins living on the streets of Las Vegas, who decide to go to Spain after seeing their last name on a Spanish map, and find out about themselves and their family. The third, titled "My Own Private Idaho", and was about a hustler who gets picked up by a German auto parts salesman and "kept" at his house. Gus Van Sant had trouble finishing the scripts, so he merged them together.

During the press junket at the Venice film festival, the actors were bombarded with questions about how playing gay street hustlers could harm their careers. Flea eventually got fed up and said, "Hey, some of my best friends are street hustlers, and I've seen more hustling going on at this festival, than I've ever seen with them." This, however, only resulted in even more questions.

The image of the falling barn was something Gus Van Sant used to paint for years. He said it represented leaving home and knowing you'll never be able to return.

an incredible look into the psyche of the working-class iranian boy in the late 1980s. my heart breaks for these fractured boys who are able to rattle off all the different ways they are punished in school and in the home but have no words to offer when asked about the last time they were praised. praise, encouragement, and reward may as well have been foreign words to them. my only hope is that these boys did not grow up to repeat the mistakes of their parents.

that last boy needed a hug so bad! i honestly can’t really blame him though for breaking down with the heavily backlit, sunglasses-wearing kiarostami towering over him in this tiny dark room, ominously inquiring about whether or not he has done his homework. i’d be crying too!

A list of films that I have, at one point or another, fallen asleep to, gotten very close to falling asleep to, or in general been in a state of half-awake to, that either/and/or (1) increased the quality of sleep with the pictures, sounds and overall mood it put me in before and/or during the sleep, (2) increased the quality of the film by adding a layer of trance-like tranquility induced by my sleepy state, or (3) didn’t ruin the film’s pacing and/or plot comprehension by me having to rewind multiple times whenever i awoke, which in turn sometimes would add to the dreamlike state i was in by experiencing an induced state of déjà vu after seeing scenes I had already seen, listened to with eyes closed, or listened to and incorporated into the brief dreams I had when I was asleep; making the film into something more than a film; a dream; a memory; a feeling. 

the films should be loose, preferably plotless, with no real conflicts and/or character turns, with naturalistic to minimal dialogue, with plenty of music at pivotal scenes in the beginning, middle and end, with increased opportunities and chances to fall asleep, if you so wish, or in general help you get into a medetative state to help ease the stress and/or anxiety that ails you, and giving you a nice rested sleep, with strange and wonderful dreams, and a feeling that you can’t wait for nighttime so you can do it all again.
