Painted Faces used to be on Shitflix, but isn't any longer (at least in Canada)... and it's on Yify, but the comments seem to indicate it's probably in Mandarin there (rather than the original Cantonese). If people are ready for it at some point, let me know, and I'll find it and put it in the plac...

FWIW.... I would read Zarathustra as my first Nietzsche like I would read The Republic as my first Plato or watch Madadayo as my first Kurosawa

i'll include T.O.B.I. as 1943 if that's the consensus... if not just don't include it on my list plz Shadow of a Doubt (Alfred Hitchcock, 1943) I Walked with a Zombie (Jacques Tourneur, 1943) The Ox-Bow Incident (William A.

My second-to-last European vacation was to Serbia and Romania, and Croatia is next on my wish list. Also eager to see Albania. Don't forget Macedonia... Skopje is one of the weirdest places on earth, these years That's on my radar too. My dad took a trip to Bulgaria and (now North) Macedonia a few ...

i like flapjacks well enough, i suppose, but what they were eating in that film are clearly pancakes. FLAPJACKS = https://images.immediate.co.uk/production/volatile/sites/2/2014/12/Flapjacks-8d9aee9-scaled.jpg?quality=45&resize=768,574 wait what... flapjacks are just synonymous with pancakes he...

i’m a diligent turn signal-user and people who don’t use their blinkers are undeniably assholes sorry not sorry what about people who sit in their car in front of their house, with their high beams on, for five minutes while waiting for something.... blinding you walking 4 blocks away... blinding y...

La Promesse

Seen 2. The Kid with a Bike is one of the "'pires" movies I've ever seen

only seen borat, which.... was nominated for awards........?

do hope to see minari one day though!

GREEDY GUTS?! NO!!!

only seen little otik aka greedy guts; it ruined my appetite for life

still not nearly as weird as Kapuskasing hosting the canadian open chess championship two years in a row

At least Mario stands with jiri this time... this round was the easiest to make a vote so far. i didn't watch any Hirokazu Koreeda yet. i can grasp that he is not a bad filmmaker and i can imagine liking some of his films (if watching them in the future) but somehow i was not able to tune in to thi...

exactly my point! i can teach basic spanish grammar fairly well, but ask me about the "english" and i'll say never heard of it! is it a new lawncare company? fights ticks? but "trust you to teach me english" sounds like trusting that they actually will teach me it (rather than ta...

man i do not want to put the horrible standard international english title for my #1 here instead of the flick's real title... but i will :oops: Our Little Sister (Hirokazu Koreeda, 2015) The Pearl Button (Patricio Guzmán, 2015) Demolition (Jean-Marc Vallée, 2015) Tough Love (Rosa von Praunheim, 201...

0__0 very cool! yeah i bet there are sometimes little things you don't know 100% native-ly and intuitively, which you might miss... but at the same time, i bet you know 'proper english' better than most native speakers, from learning it deliberately. ...like conrad and nabokov (no pressure). if i ha...

^ duly noted

and as always, almost everyone on my lbd seems to love duck soup while wba says it's one of the worst movies ever made... good stuff!

i was stressing out over 3 scfzers already having seen my pick for this round... but 12 have seen the other one outdone!

(and my flick is up in the place)

the version on KG might be a little bit better; can easily avail it if anyone is super interested! Do share, please! I watched a couple minutes and it looks lovely, but youtube's compression is an enemy of art. For sure! Posted in the place! Maybe there'll be an HD version one day, but this one is ...

I've never made a top albums list, but I have made a top 20 rap albums list. Strangely enough, not a single one of these rappers even makes my top 5 list, which consists of Dylan, Dylan, Dylan, Dylan, and Dylan... Boogie Down Productions - Criminal Minded (1987) The D.O.C. - No One Can Do It Better ...

only seen one, hated it... duck soup? more like (wolfgang) puck soup
