actually interested to see what she was up to

4chan films spreadsheet on directors (yes, you'll have to accept that there's a column for 'jewish' )

Yeah I'm super deep into a ww2 phase right now and can't wait till thread gets to '35 and on to check the hardcore propeganda out again. Same with Eisenstein, there were no HD versions of Nevsky or Ivan last time I watched them so I'm super excited to dive into those right away.

Leni's mountain films seem highly ridiculous but we'll see

i was slackin on the 20s but i'll try to keep up here in the 30s

saw a 35mm print of alexander nevskij last summer glorious

row 3 denizen at the cinematheque, right in the f***ing middle staring at the screen

I was slacking for alot of reasons but I'll be cramming the dust now six down for 1930 already

That's must've been amazing

gonna be slacking cause imma cram french films these next two weeks before my trip but i'll try to watch as much dust as i can

ngl print was a lil scuffed but still seeing it on a gigantic projection can't be beat

Dipped into my Vigo set for the first time in like 8 years underwhelming

they're having a john waters retrospective this fall, its time for divine to hit that big screen

no vigo slander

à propos de nice really set a tone for me regarding still photography, they're not many but the few shots of roofs or terraces from oblique angles hit hard for me. decent film but l'atalante is a diff breed

It was pretty cool to revisit since I've stayed there for a week looks more or less the same

Still just felt like watered down montage tho

the full version isn't available i think. the available 24 min one is heavily cut. it's satire/social realism inspired by the writing of eisenstein and the filmmaking of vertov.

i think the idea was to make a film like berlin: symphony of a metropolis but got vigo lost in the sauce while makin it and started satirizin

Didn't realize it was largely Vertovs wife with the editing assist as well honestly didn't realize it was a woman in the editing room the first couple times I saw it

damn was it vertovs wife or vertovs brothers wife?

france has always surprised me, like more than half of the french films i've seen the editing were done women and this goes for early films too

Vertov was filming his brother most of the time so technically that's "the man with the camera" and it was Vertov's wife editing

wait are we talking about man with a movie camera or a propos du nice rn

if so yeah my bad ye its vertov's waifu

Forgot about Humberto Mauro’s The Virgin Lips. Brazilian cinema

Any watchable eisenstein come out between now and Nevsky? One of these Mexico projects?

the battle on ice is cool but the aftermath of Pskov with these a******s too good

certified banger
