Re: What I Watched This Month......
only triple-bills this month, randomly selected directors and i needed ready access to three films so not many adventurous choices:
John Ford
The Hurricane (1937) - 9/10
When Willie Comes Marching Home (1950) - 7/10
Rookie of the Year (1955) - 4/10
Samuel Fuller
I Shot Jesse James (1949) - 8/10
Shark (1969) - 3/10 (disowned by Fuller)
Street of No Return (1989) - 5/10 (though maybe 1/10 or 10/10)
Terry Gilliam
Storytime (1979) - 5/10
The Legend of Hallowdega (2010) - 2/10
The Wholly Family (2011) - 3/10
Jean-Luc Godard (accidentally watched four, two shorts)
Le Petit Soldat (1963) - 7/10
Closed (1988) - 3/10
Germany Year 90 Nine Zero (1991) - 8/10
Une Catastrophe (2008) - 6/10
DW Griffith

After the Axe (1982) - 8/10
Final Offer (1985) - 9/10
We The Jury (1996) - 2/10
After the Axe - documentary/fiction hybrid with hilarious focus on the effects of downsizing on fired corporate executives, kind of fascinating

We The Jury - ludicrous jury deliberation fiction film
Tobe Hooper
Eggshells (1969) - 9/10
Spontaneous Combustion (1989) - 2/10
Djinn (2013) - 7/10
Louis Lumiere
The Photographical Congress Arrives in Lyon (1895) - 7/10

Re: What I Watched This Month......
Director triple bills are an interesting idea — nice mini thematic detours
Were the triple bills all in one day? I could see myself doing these more, but with 1 movie a night probably...

Re: What I Watched This Month......
some of them, when i had time! the gilliam, lumiere and villeneueve ones were easy to do in a day, because the films were all shorts. i ended up watching quite a few outliers in director filmographies, and in a few cases watched very early and very late films by the same director; sometimes it was interesting to see commonalities in those films, but sometimes they were so tenuously related that they might as well have been made by different people. if i do this all again, i might try to watch three nearly consecutive films from a director's filmography.Evelyn Library P.I. wrote: ↑Wed Nov 01, 2023 5:23 pm Were the triple bills all in one day?
