i foresee a joks rating of roughly 6.5 in the near future

serious answer (i.e. boring answer): been into film as long as i can remember. the three caballeros was my jam back in the day. we had two copies of it on vhs cuz i wore out our original copy, watching it over and over. we also had betamax for a little bit. used to watch disney's storybook classics,...

interestingly enough, i'd never seen any melville before (shocker, i know, n00b that i am); and apparently the flick is considered a sort of 'outlier' in his filmog, so i guess i started in an awkward place, but i gotta say, i really dug this one. it's got that wonderfully alien eurogaze of uhmurica...

l'aîné des ferchaux (melville) badasses doing bad things. four out of five. would make a great double bill with demy's model shop (heads up to curtis)

the mise en scene looks like that one sequence from ford's the rising of the moon but i know it ain't that

2013 i remember uchida's policeman being another one of those hard-to-find flicks

it looks like there's a copy of ajantrik on tube that's 1hr 36min 50sex. does that runtime sound accurate or would i be wasting an hour and a half of my life on an incomplete film?

sidenote: xavier dolan ripped off mamma roma big time with mommy and yet i've never seen the glaring comparison brought up elsewhere

i don't have screencaps either, bd. tbh i post pics that i find online (assuming champs in good standing aren't just reverse-searching the image to see where it came from cuz what fun is that amiright?)

i know i haven't voted yet but imo salo is like the artiest (in the best sense) exploitation movie ever made. not necessarily the best, but goddamn it's beautiful in its own ugly way

i'd like to think this pertains especially to me, since i'm notoriously noncommittal, easily sidetracked, and hopelessly unreliable (but at least i've learned my lesson volunteering for anything that requires any time and effort whatsoever)

i was psyched to see farah khan's name under the choreography credit in kabhi haan kabhi naa! not just cuz i really enjoy her flicks, but also cuz i'm starting to recognize names and faces in a film industry that used to be totally alien to me (and still is in countless ways)
