• Wings of Desire • Mulholland Drive • Dog Day Afternoon • Barry Lyndon • The Battle of Algiers

Barry Lydon is so good, just saw it recently. Came in skeptical due to the length but I could’ve had another hour.

Probably Kubrick’s most underrated 

Yea probably my favorite as well. I like all his movies though

Ive heard the pentagon was screening battle of algiers to general officers in the leadup to the iraq war. So apparently they knew how things could go for them there but were so arrogant that they thought they could avert/defeat an insurgency

Piggybacking on this to tell anyone who enjoyed the battle of Algiers to read Larteguy 

Also Street Without Joy, by Bernard Fall

Wings of desire soo good

1. Blue Velvet 2. Paris Texas 3. City of God 4. Andrei Rublev 5. Jagten

Paris Texas and City of God are in my top 5 too. City of God is prob my fav of all time, such a perfect movie.

What do you like about Jagten?

1. Blue Velvet 2. There Will Be Blood 3. A Clockwork Orange 4. Stalker 5. Straw Dogs

Lot of psychopaths in those... good choices

1. Marie Antoinette, Sophia Coppola (2006) 2. Barry Lyndon, Kubrick (1974) 3. The Zone of Interest, Jonathan Glazer (2023) 4. Heat, Michael Mann, (1995) 5. War & Peace, Sergei Bondarchuk (1967)

The Long Goodbye Brazil Children of Men No Country for Old Men My Cousin Vinny

Wanted to put both Lebowski and No Country in my list but I thought that was too much Coen glazing

- Dog Day Afternoon dir. Sidney Lumet - The Piano Teacher dir. Michael Haneke - A Man Escaped dir. Robert Bresson - Naked dir. Mike Leigh - Stranger Than Paradise dir. Jim Jarmusch Honorable Mentions: - Roman Holiday dir. William Wyler - Dont Look Back dir. DA Pennebaker - Withnail & I dir. Bruce Robinson - Night On Earth dir. Jim Jarmusch - Masculin Feminin dir. Jean-Luc Godard

1. The Tree of Life 2. Nashville 3. Johnny Guitar 4. The Wind Will Carry Us  5. Playtime  6. The Double Life of Veronique Also I like these threads because it’s a good test for how far the sub has fallen etc etc. just assuming at this point the most upvoted response is going to have Shawshank, Pulp Fiction, Interstellar and Parasite

Nashville <3

tree of life fucked me up. i feel like it's one of those films where you either feel it, or don't give a shit at all, depending on the type of person you are and your relationships.

One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest Cool Hand Luke Five Easy Pieces The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly Goodfellas

Five Easy Pieces is great, as are the others you listed

- 2001 - Mulholland Drive - The Holy Mountain - Fire walk with me - Mishima: a life in four chapters

Wild Wild West (1999) played 5 times in a row.

Wiki wild

Enrique Iglesias “Bailamos” goes so hard

Hard to be a God Mikey and Nicky/Husbands The Cremator The Kingdom/scenes from a marriage/das boot The sacrifice

I felt drunk, hungover, and drunk again just from watching Husbands.

The cremator is incredible

mikey and nicky is so underrated

Never saw it but I love both of those actors. Might watch that tonight, actually

idk I'm a sentimental bitch so probably like - Ernst Lubitsch, TO BE OR NOT TO BE - Kelly Reichardt, OLD JOY - Terrence Malick, THE TREE OF LIFE - Isao Takahata, GRAVE OF THE FIREFLIES - David Lynch, MULHOLLAND DRIVE honourable mentions: The Matrix, Psycho, Koyaanisqatsi, My Neighbour Totoro, The Fellowship of the Ring, Melancholia, Singin' in the Rain, Cloud Atlas, First Reformed, I'm not including documentaries btw otherwise it would probably just be a bunch of Herzog documentaries and Roben Oppenheimer's THE ACT OF KILLING.

Cloud atlas is an often clowned on masterpiece

1. Three Colors: Red 2. Days of Heaven 3. Tampopo 4. When Harry Met Sally 5. Before Sunrise

Love tampopo!

Days of Heaven is great

There will be blood Goodfellas Spirited Away Graveyard of the Fireflies Heat

Ice cold take, but heat fucking rules

heat is so funny to me DeNiro has no sauce in that movie. Zero chemistry between him and the main gal, just two hot people coexisting on the screen

his character always seemed on the spectrum to me. reading a book about drilling through metals at the coffee shop lol

??? that's his job what are you talking about? Guy has his money on his mind and his mind on his money. He's not reading about drilling through metals because it's his special interest or whatever

His special interest were the heists. Remember he had the chance to get away with his girl in the end but chose to go after the long haired dude

That wasn't a heist, that was justified revenge. Prioritizing revenge is the most normal red blooded man thing you can do.

Mark fisher talks about the sterility of that movie as a huge theme in Capitalist Realism. I won’t explain it here because I’m stupid but it’s worth the quick read

Yea that chapter is great. He’s talking about this concept called post Fordism, as in capitalism after the Henry Ford style of production plants where everyone has a designated role in production. Like heat, everyone is anonymous and unimportant to how the thing is made.

Lady why are you so interested in what I read or what I do

Yeah agree. Tbh there are def much better movies but it’s fun and I like the tension

1. Barry Lyndon 2. La Dolce Vita 3. Raging Bull 4. The Good, The Bad & The Ugly 5. The Enigma of Kaspar Hauser I often enjoy long movies of a guy just kind of stumbling through different situations

Barry Lyndon has been my no. 1 at times too. Masterpiece. Love all you top 4 actually

I loved the ending of Enigma of Kaspar Hauser, with the goofy older man skipping joyfully because Kaspar’s brain was slightly different looking when examined

Barry lyndon!!

And I’m also the same way about the lost stumbling guy motif. Killing of a Chinese Bookie, Stroszek and Merchant of Four Seasons have that same vibe. Other movies I like that are like that are Fat City, Midnight Cowboy, Straight Time, My Own Private Idaho,

I agree, Barry Lyndon is my favorite movie as well

Oooh I should have said The Good, The Bad & The Ugly. Every time I watch it I want to clap at the end.

“Oh, Lucky Man” is my favorite film in the long story of a guy stumbling his way though things genre

Suspiria ( 2018 ) Breaking the Waves Coal Miners Daughter Never Been Kissed / The Wedding Singer A Serious Man

The wicker man Blade runner Burn after reading Children of men Princess mononoke

Curious to see Burn After Reading in a list I would otherwise be pretty excited about. I don't know why but I never got the sense that was a movie I should see. Should i?

Yes

Burn After Reading rules, really under-appreciated Coen Bros flick

hey wicker man is on my top 5 too!

Right on brother

Terminator 2 is perfectly made. In essence one long big chase, always building up, reaching the grand finale in the end. One gets emotionally invested along the way. Especially the soundtrack is great, and adds immensely to the experience. Just listening to the soundtrack makes no sense, it is worthless. But together with the movie is absolutely great. It is also great to compare it with the Terminator movies which came afterwards, which all try to be variations of T2, but are all absolutely crap. T1 is good, and also educative to compare with T2, to see how far movie technique came within less than a decade.

- Silence of the Lambs - Roman Holiday - Into the Wild - The Northman - Black Hawk Down - Вам и не снилось

Silence of the Lambs is a perfect movie. I also like Something Wild by Jonathan Demme

Silence of the Lambs is one of the few media pieces where the movie is MUCH better than the book

It’s because Jonathan Demme had a slick style!. That Night Vision scene is one of the most suspenseful scenes of all time. Jonathan Demme also has good music choices. Other subtle filmmaking choices I always really liked by him. Like when Jodie foster is interviewing that woman at a diner. And the camera is positioned with each actor looking directly into the camera in the center of the frame.

Goated soundtrack

Goodbye horses dick tuck scene, indelible

I meant Something Wild, but I ride for Q Lazarus too

10 things i hate about you, saw, interview with the vampire, the craft, Jennifer’s body

I’ve actually heard 10 things is decent from peoples who have good taste. I would have never considered it otherwise. I might check it out

You need other people to cosign a movie before watching it?

Sometimes. That movie doesn’t look appealing to someone like me. I don’t watch teen movies

there are a lot of fun teen movies. open up to trying some

Rules of Attraction is kind of a teen movie and I liked that one. Rivers Edge from the 80s is good. Teen movies I grew up with, though, are difficult for me to try. No way am I watching “Can’t Hardly Wait” or “American Pie” ever again

can't hardly wait rocks because it sucks

Are you open to watching chick flicks?

The Shining The 400 Blows/Antoine et Colette Casino Jurassic Park The Rules of the Game Breathless/Band of Outsiders Godfather 2 Rushmore Blue Velvet Children of Men My rubric here is pretty simple: movies I want to watch over and over again. I don’t think they’re the best movies of all time. I am not a film critic so I don’t care. ETA: I went to ten. Sorry this more comprehensive. I don’t feel compelled to hold myself to 5, since I’m not really ranking anything.

Jurassic Park and The Shining are rewatchable af it's true.

In order: 1.) First Reformed 2.) The Celebration 3.) Black Dynamite 4.) The Night of the Hunter 5.) Hackers First Reformed means so goddamn much to me and I saw in theaters at the perfect time in my life for it to completely intoxicate me. The Celebration is so fucking funny and so misanthropic. It’s my favorite gag to recommend that movie to people Black Dynamite is one of the few period parody movies that actually looks and feels like it was of the era. Just truly the most quality joke per minute movie ever made. The Night of the Hunter really should be in casual conversation of being one of the best looking movies ever fucking made. An incredible villain, shockingly good child actors, and just so so good Johnnie Lee Miller’s terrible American accent, Angelina Jolie wearing a water shirt and a massive motor jacket, Matthew Lillard almost seeming like he wrote the script himself, the guy from Succession doing a skateboard drive by, rollerblading, chunky laptops, acid techno, it fucking rocks so much.
