Looking forward to the American remake of Anatomy of a Fall where the blind kid is played by Timothee Chalomet.

idk where to post this but I stumbled across this video last night and it's a banger from start to finish, like Les Blanc by way of Christopher Guest: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ixNAKjALO7c

CatstropheWaitress posted:To add to my last post, after sitting with it for a bit, I think All That Jazz might be one of the best movies ever made? Or at least a new favorite, personal top 5 easily. Have seen a lot of movies do similar stuff with fantasy elements compounding until they take over the flick, but never with as much grace and charm as this one does. Bojack Horsemen immediately comes to mind, but I think the "this is your life" episode there doesn't resonate as strongly as Joe's song and dance numbers do. When his daughter does the solo performance of "hey you're not going to be around to see me grow old", just oof. Yet it never loses the wit in Joe's sarcasm and self-destruction. Fosse was amazing, Lenny and Star 80 are both grimy must-sees. His choreography also was obviously next-level - mean, kinda hosed up, harsh and menacing. He could take a piece of anodyne nostalgia like Sing, Sing, Sing and turn it into a coked-out fever dream by pushing the dancers absolutely to their limits: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nEOQll6252o The sense of too-muchness and self-destruction is always the first thing that gets scrubbed from his choreography in revivals, lol. It bums me out that Kander and Ebb never got to do a They Shoot Horses musical with him because I think it would've been a perfect combo, though I think his depiction of them in All That Jazz as fussy little f-slurs probably killed that collab.

It's kind of a shame they didn't bring back Bertie Carvel, who originated the musical role as a kind of psychotic panto dame, but Thompson was serviceable. Tim Minchin's score is fabulous either way.

Maxwell Lord posted:It's hard to say what's the best but it definitely feels like Nope is the most refined of his movies so far- like his skills as a director have clearly developed a lot in the making of all three movies. I see it as more like comparing, say, Cronenberg's Shivers to The Brood. Both very good movies but you can see him learning more in terms of pure technique and visual flair. I still don't think it quite stuck the third-act change in tone, but scene-by-scene Nope is hit after hit after hit in a way that feels oddly rare for a film of its scale these days. It's got the rewatchability of something like Twister or Tremors.

It's funny to me that people mostly just know Wallace Shawn as a silly little gnome-like character actor because all of the plays he's written are harrowing, scalding nightmares.

Peter Greenaway produced six of my favorite movies from 1980 to 1989.

HUNDU THE BEAST GOD posted:https://x.com/WillSloanEsq/status/1786825517208846767 I want to say I Love You, Daddy is CK making GBS threads on Woody Allen but he also invited Allen to play the pedophile character in it after collaborating with him, so I have no idea what happened there (also the other stuff lol). Either way, I hope they both die soon.

Phantom Menace got a lot of post-release mileage out of its insane marketing campaign, but I'll never forget how Attack of the Clones sucked all the air out of the room.

Sweeney Todd is such an unhinged grand guignol powerhouse onstage that it's impossible to see the movie as anything but a frail shadow.
