This thread makes me so sad. In college I would watch so many films... so many weekends lost to cinema... but now I am older and I watch a good film maybe once every 6 months. Film used to be such a huge part of my life, I felt like Tarkovsky and Bergman and Rohmer were my mentors when I had no mentors in real life. Now all that is in the past and I still have no mentors. I don't know anymore what was a film and what was just a dream.

[Anonymous No.11161083]

>>11161061
Kubrick is the most goddamned overrated filmmaker. People act like he makes pure art for the sake of it, when in reality much of that is a bleed-over effect from space odyssey (which realistically was art for the sake of it) leading people to believe the rest of his films are the same way. There's no way you can tell me The Shining is better than La Dolce Vita, or in any way less of an entertainment piece. Plus most of the people who suck Kubrick off have only watched Space Odyssey (babby's first artsy film,) The Shining, and Full Metal Jacket. Not to say that's you, but he really is the Pleb's first line of defense in a film conversation.

Mishima is my favourite film director. He also had a good taste in film himself (Ozu, Matsumoto,
Mizoguchi)

most people refer to The Puppetmaster or A City of Sadness as his masterpiece, though I'd only seen The Assassin.
What I can said about TA is that its cinematography is probably one step higher in comparison to Malick's. though Edward Yang is probably the best director in Taiwan New Wave movement

>>11161451
I just saw The Merchant of Four Seasons (Fassbinder) recently. I thought it was pretty good. probably one of his best.

>>11161442
I've only seen a couple films by him, but A time to live a time to die struck me as the best so far albeit it's autobiographical portrait of the director going through the losses of loved ones at an early said

like the other guy said, Yang is probably the most notorious filmmaker that emerged from the Taiwanese new cinema, The Terrorizers is highly recommended

I'm glad /lit/ isn't infected by the obscurity malady that plagues /mu/ and /tv/. There obscurity is absolutely and positively correlated with "quality", but here we can discuss Joyce and Shakespeare without anyone coming along and saying "Shakespeare is for plebs, read Thomas Browne instead" or "Joyce is for the masses, read Hermann Broch instead". Here we don't have to pretend to like mediocre writers just to get hipster cred. God bless.
