smallmouth posted:I watched Thelma the other night. It was a bit slow, but overall good. I really enjoyed how it led you to believe her parents were super repressive. They were, but with reason--I liked how they weren't just a cheap caricature. She ends up killing her father in the most horrible way possible. And she heals her mother who is a paraplegic, despite her mother insisting her father kill her. Her mother was traumatized by what happened to her brother and tried, and failed, to take her own life

gey muckle mowser posted:completely depends on licensing, sometimes the Criterion release will be the first time a movie has shown up on blu, other times it could be years. Or in most cases, likely never! Is uncut gems like one of the fastest turnarounds on a film being released and it getting a criterion release? Guess The Lighthouse might be one of those “couple of years” or “never” movies, although I hope it eventually gets included if only because it feels like criterion’s become a proving ground for “legitimacy” or staying power with art films and I don’t want it to be a flash-in-the-pan. Then again Punch Drunk Love is the only PTA work in the criterion collection and you’d be hard-pressed to find anybody, even anybody at criterion, who thinks it’s like his best work or “better” than like Magnolia or TWBB. trilobite terror fucked around with this message at 14:30 on Sep 1, 2021 |

TychoCelchuuu posted:I've only watched 17 of them so far, chronologically from the beginning plus The Skin I Live In, but I wouldn't say that any of them haven't aged well. I don't think there's anything in any of them that someone might be unhappier about today than many people would've been unhappy about the day those movies were released. He has a lot of stuff that can rub you the wrong way, and for me the rape stuff in a few films doesn't work, but I don't think that's at all to do with changing norms. There were plenty of people upset about any given topic that he touches on in his films back when those films came out. I don’t think anybody would really disagree that it is more frowned upon/scrutinized to flippantly use the sexual assault of a character as a dramatic tool or plot point in 2021 than it was in the 1970s-90s.

Huh, Beasts of No Nation is on Criterion. Wasn’t that film initially backed by Netflix? I wonder if there are other Netflix movies on Criterion...
