This is a letterboxd list I wanna see.

i could not think of a single film to put on it, outrageous.

casta diva - eric de kuyper (1982) how come all these streaming sites won't let me grab screencaps anymore? have to scrape the internet...anyway this is 100 minutes of staring at men doing mundane not-muchness. great. (why we gotta rely on gay men for this stuff, where's all the woman leering at men...

cross and mauser - vladimir gardin (1925) just mopping up some of my left-over 25s. soviet desire to smash the church makes a pretty sordid movie (but boring and long - my copy seems to be 30 mins longer than the ones on youtube, guess some bits were censored) https://i.imgur.com/OhGUqN5.png https:/...

so glad to see you both like forever amber. i've seen it twice now and it's seriously a favorite but i feel like the consensus on it is that it's bs / a mess. but it's a top shelf preminger for me. excited to rewatch it in 1080p this month. :) seems to be quite polarizing. on letterboxd all the (de...

https://i.imgur.com/xXf52D3.png this is THE perfect film to begin 1947 (given zynab's past username)....made by the army to berate the blind idiocy of british subjects, a reminder that cinema was historically one of the many arms of the military-industrial complex https://i.imgur.com/wjMpYNC.png wa...

next poll is 1947! i'm sure you can dig up some wonders for that!

final ballot: the bear's wedding - konstantin eggert, vladimir gardin the stationmaster - yuri zhelyabuzhsky, ivan moskvin namus - amo bek-nazaryan the case of the murder of tariel mklavadze - ivane perestiani lady windermere's fan - ernst lubitsch sunshine valley - emanuel gregers the adventures of...

pohjalaisia - jalmari lahdensuo one of those scandi-rural silents, and it almost works... the scenery is gorgeous and is filmed to comment on the action (best use of swinging well-bucket), the plot hints at an interesting examination of even good-hearted conflicting inflexible attitudes, and best o...

Only 'write-in' updates will be accepted after the deadline.

angel, i DM'd you, did you receive it?

rated what i remember, which is considerably less than what i've apparently seen. brain is rotting.

the years of the big heat - frieda liappa (1992) #CoMoΕλλάδα

manasse - jean mihail (1925)

here's another film that is incredible to see in 1925! the only thing that made it bearable (lol) was the panda eye

nick collins spree! at agios ioannis (2023) #CoMoΕλλάδα hammam (2018) #CoMoΕλλάδα trissákia 3 (2013) #CoMoΕλλάδα wittnerchrome notes (2018) #CoMoΕλλάδα absolutely love this guy. his greek films are like the time team version of jean-claude rousseau crossed with heinz emigholz https://i.imgur.com/4mu...

face to face - roviros manthoulis (1966) #CoMoΕλλάδα

the most '60s' film ever made in greece (in an enjoyable way)

move that piece there you idiot!

cheka commissar miroschtschenko - paul sehnert (1925) https://i.imgur.com/ovfDFJb.png my first estonian silent i think, and from this i gather that estonians must be optimists, since they're constantly amazed at the horror they find themselves in. a distinctly anti-soviet movie? https://i.imgur.com/...

beginning to think it was an obligation in silent movies

olla - ariane labed (2019) #CoMoΕλλάδα

ugh just gotta stop watching these modern movies

this 1490 manuscript is insane the red marks represent the wounds of christ and they think the black has been worn off the last page through devotional kissing. oh wow; this is so beautiful. thanks for sharing. do you know what the manuscript is called / where i can look at more of it? it's egerton...

still planning on submitting a ballot but it's gonna be last minute probably, sorry angel
