Re: Library DVD Collection Advice?

Coppola shouldn't be there imo. I was the first to name him but not really as a distinct director, he didn't really develop a style of his own but, in the peak of Hollywood's new approach to cinema, made three (arguably four) of Hollywood's most memorable masterpieces in its best decade, before trag...

Re: Library DVD Collection Advice?

And to get through the silent films: These seem like harsh limits, but what are the 2 essentials of early Soviet Cinema? The 2 essentials of German Expressionism? The 5 essentials of silent era Hollywood? And to round out at 10 silents, can we think of one more definitive film? Not so harsh really ...

Re: MOM July 2012

I'll break the tie:

Big meat eater
Iphigenia

Also, 'Morning Departure' was perfectly mediocre, an incredibly dry film. I couldn't get through the first act.

Re: Library DVD Collection Advice?

which sub-genres, film movements, and prolific directors should I highlight? If it was up to me I'd look at things more from this approach rather then directly naming films.

Re: MOM July 2012

On a sidenote, 1. It has ten or less ratings on Criticker; excluding users like imdb, RNG, etc... 2. It is available through either Netflix or Youtube. 3. It is at least ten years old.

Re: MOM July 2012

It didn't leave any great impression, but I guess that's the point. Like there's nothing to impress into, or stick to - everything slides off into time and radio chatter* and cheap dresses. [...] *While the editing often feels borrowed and translated from European cinema, the use of radio and other...
