Earlier this year I watched Dusty Stacks of Mom with 2 film friends that both love experimental films. After 15 minutes one of my friends said: this is embarrassing right? And we felt a relief because we all found it unwatchable and cringy. I picked the film because of all the appreciation it gets h...

Every watchlist I have is always growing so big that I forget why I put certain films on there. Here I want to make a watchlist and describe the context of each film on it somehow.

Not much writing on his work, mostly on his feature film of course. This could maybe be nice: https://frieze.com/article/film-eduardo-williams That I'm Falling was his student film at Fresnoy (one of my favorite film schools); it might not be his best, but it's nice to watch it in this little overvi...

Thanks Flip! Wonderful list.
Out of the top 25 I still need to watch:

16. The Homesman (Tommy Lee Jones, 2014)
20. Winter Vacation (Li Hongqi, 2010)

A great new year’s resolution for 2020

Still in. No real preferences, but I prefer director and country slightly above year

I just added 3 films to my last tier that I watched last weeks (I left 3 spots open in my original ballot). Thanks Flip!

I'd love to watch Forget Me Not. Can anyone maybe help me with a link? I can't find it anywhere

I'm not sure if I have enough time, but if we do shorts I can manage (after all, I'm a short film programmer).

I will edit some later, but for now: 1. Certified Copy (Abbas Kiarostami, 2010) The Turin Horse (Bela Tarr, 2011) Stemple Pass (James Benning, 2012) Stray Dogs (Tsai Ming-Liang 2013) 0.5 mm (Momoko Ando, 2014) Knight of Cups (Terence Malick, 2015) Toni Erdmann (Maren Ade, 2016) Western (Valeska Gris...

How about King Vidor?

Have I seen only 5?

This is my most beloved quote ever: As I am putting these pieces of film together, this late evening, I am thinking about myself, I am thinking how during the years, I have covered myself with layers of civilization, so many layers that now even myself I don’t see how easily wounds are made deep ins...
