Was reading Baudrillard and then I was thinking about art and had this idea - if you compare Au Hasard Balthazar to Wild At Heart, both are opposites in their depiction of reality. Bresson hires non-actors and makes them re-read lines and tire them to make them lose any semblance of theatrics. Whereas Lynch obviously encourages it to create a totally surreal feeling. Lynch’s kind of purposeful parody of reality using surrealism to me seems more similar to Bresson’s pure realism than either of them do to a typical new Hollywood film. Bresson rejects the spectacle and Lynch parodies it. Does anyone know if this kind of idea is expanded on or talked about in any art/film theory? Or maybe you think this is retarded, either way I would like to read your thoughts on this. Thanks

No, that's based. I can do what non-actors do in my house. I can't do what Daniel Day-Lewis does.

Not everything is about you or your propensity to idolize faggot hollywood actors whose only skill is to pretend to be other people. You could do what Daniel Gay-Lewis does if you got off this website for once, stopped using words like 'based' and sucked off a few old jews

Reading "art theory" is a huge waste of time, any artist who's anything will tell you this. Baudrillard has seemingly already given you all the tools you need to analyze cinema this way. Honestly, writing down that paragraph probably helped you more than reading an essay or whatever ever could. Explore the idea. Write.

Probably right, I'm gonna read more philosophers that are considered important and enjoy more art rather than twist myself up into some 86 IQ sperg out.

So he wrote on art theory and you're using him as an example against studying art theory?
And I'm the brainlet...

Not against studying art theory, just against reading books labelled thusly.
BTW the funny cartoon man was supposed to be me, didn't mean to call you brainlet.
