i've never seen a joan of arc film. where do i start

>>134064239Death of Louis XIV and Story of my Death are good.

>>134064494turn on your television

>>134064494Skip Dreyer's theatrical piece of shit. Move to Bresson's sublime masterpiece and then to Rivette's 2 part epic.

>>134064474All the Cremaster films are on public trackers, I'm pretty sure.

>>134064474You don't "watch" his films. He is a fine artist and uses film as a medium to present his art. It's less of a "film" and more of an art piece, so don't go into Cremaster thinking you are going to watch a movie. Think of it as if you are going to a museum to look at a sculpture. And if you think that's a joke and bullshit, well, you do you

>>134064538Yes.

>>134064094Never saw the original, but I know this scene was intense in the remake.

>>134064239shitSHIT

>>134064507Birdsong is kino.

>>134064592Watch the original, it blows the remake out of the water

>>134064482My percentage hasn't changed since the last time. Still 470

>>134064351I go back and forth. I will say I think he's dead serious. if you watch his interviews, he is doing art like any other serious artist: exploring what naturally interests him, developing an abstract, conceptual language, and then finding similarly abstract yet appropriate units of visual data within that conceptual language and applying them and sticking by them painstakingly. He is most certainly a visionary. There are some caveats: his films usually don't justify the budgets or art-world resources he has imo. If you're a rich fucker who has continued to be a rich fucker and you're wasting my time with your personal vision, you better do all you can to seize on that and I feel like parts of his work don't (large portions of Cremaster just don't do it for me and, at worst, come off as masturbatory). Moreover, while I like the expansiveness of the concept of sculpture into moving pictures, I dislike the institutional baggage that comes with that, and simultaneously the responsibility of that pool of sources and traditions that sometimes he utterly fails to uphold despite reaping the visual benefits (e.g., the dude literally has the Guggenheim as a backdrop for a portion of Cremaster, yet completely fails to maintain the revolutionary potential of his material [this is more of an art-historical-theoretical point, so if you don't have the background, don't worry, this shit is tenuous and gets iffy real quick]). There are some images from Cremaster that absolutely sustain throughout, and for my money that's all video art should aspire to. So, yeah, I'd say (today) he is good and not just a meme.

>>134064589I will say this has always conflicted me because I will, in all likelihood, never experience barney beyond a computer screen whereas all his works seems like they demand maybe even an IMAX experience to maximize their effects. And i'm sure even if there is a massive retrospective in ten years it'll sellout immediately.

Matthew Barney sounds like a retarded charlatan in interviews.

>>134066301GREEN THEATRE>GREEN THEATRE

>>134066310The end breaks the wall, dispelling the myth of cinema itself. There are no symbols or esoteric identifications, but people playing in costumes with cameras on them. "All the world is but a stage" literally, but for the acid generation who was getting too far up their own ass.

>>134066341totally agree

>>134066349Yeah, most contemporary artists do. If that's the filter, then yeah anything post-Warhol probably won't do it for you.

>>134066310He sends the main character to just live his life. And he said something like 'we didn't get enlightenment or immortality but we got something else' (don't remember exactly) basically I take that as him denying both enlightenment and immortality (kind of in a purist taoist way)

>>134066276Get off film because I asked what Matthew Barney film yo watch and then said is cremaster a good starting point... and you snidely sperg ‘go to Netflix go to Netflix, you don’t watch it’s video art.’>>134066235I don’t have an anti-art theory I just don’t know why you’re being such a smug faggot about it. You give some person a little ‘artistic’ superiority and they become a good. I mean he did choose a Norman mailer novel, so how ‘profound’ could it be.... I’ll watch cremaster as an artwork then take it from there sheesh

>>134066392Yes, but it ultimately delivers on the esoteric promise. They did experience satori on the mountain.

Like holy shit I gave you a thorough explanation and you're still asking the title we're referring to.

>>134066584>person with boring outlook posts boring memeFitting

>>134066460The real Holy Mountain was the lessons we learned along the way.

>>134066536check Rembrandt, Vermeer, Bosch, Dali, Munch, Monet or Durero. One will lead you to the other and the other and the other, just like in any art :)

>>134066653Thanks.

>>134066533That's where I disagree. There's a distinct tonal shift. The jig is up. Maybe we're just having a scope issue here where you value that moment of satori whereas I see it as undermined. I think Jodorowsky would certainly lean toward your interpretation as an acidhead himself.

>>134066584>Books? Sorry, I prefer rallying in the streets.

>>134066178Start with the Dutch.

>>134066160Wojciech Has does those themes so much better and actually has fun with it through parody and satiric strength. Jodorowsky isnt refined its all flatulence

>>134066651>The real Holy Mountain was the lessons we learned along the way.That's legitimately what the lesson is. The guy is following the fool's journey of the tarot, which ends with the fool gaining an understanding of the world but still returning into it, rather than ascending.

Also I definitely wasn't the guy you were replying to first. i never corrected your language because typically I don't care about that shit so long as your ideas are up to par. I was the guy who gave you a paragraph style explanation and you proceeded to ask more questions, to which I responded with "Yes" only to be met with "Cremaster?" as if this wasn't what we had been talking about in the first place after shifting the conversation from RoF to Barney's work in general (the only widely available of which has always been Cremaster).

>>134066982Yes. I hope that will be enough>>134067063Slovakia. There is nothing here

>>134067108Ah okay then sorry, I liked that paragraph and got confused by yous as I’m on my phone. Thanks a lot though.

>>134067027Ironically, no. I intensely disliked new MoMa, aside from the Modernist canonical stuff that they so intensely tried to restrict with their reinstall (literally cried in front of the Derain). The Met really is where it is at as far as canonical education is concerned. If you find yourself stricken with contemporary art, yeah MoMa is obligatory, but I disagree with a lot of their choices. It's like the fulfilment of Baudrillard's "Conspiracy of Art" mixed with all the political signalling you'd suspect.

>>134067240>>134067108What nyc museums would u recommend btw? Guggenheim, moma, the met

>>134067131I may out myself as a pleb here but I'd also recommended reading writers on art if literature is your kind of thing. Karl Ove Knausgaard, in particular, gave me a deeper appreciation of a few old masters.

>>134066980The Grapes of Wrath

>>134067247Damn I just saw all the Warhol and some Godard films at moma so I thought it’d be good. The politics had me weary, fuck that. How’s the Guggenheim?

>>134067247>literally cried in front of the DerainWhy, did they hang it in the bathroom?

>>134067316Haven’t read knasgaard yet, sounds interesting. I’ve been reading Joyce’s Ulysses and just finished journey to the end of the night

>>134067033>dubs>>134067069>>134067076>>134067332>no dubsguess that settles it

>>134067296Personally? I think a day spent at the Met is worth more than doing a whole art tour of NYC altogether. The ones you listed are obligatory (though the Guggenheim isn't too impressive aside from the architecture). I found the national galleries in DC to be more consistent. But as far as NYC goes The Met, the Whitney, The Met Bruer, The Studio in Harlem, The Brooklyn, MoMa, Guggenheim, the Frick, that should be a good start.

>>134066734Any books on the Dutch Masters or on painting in general you would recommend?

>>134066858The Tribulations of Balthazar Kober. When i first watched it i was just kind of bored and not really paying attention. But then the next day a strange sort of events unfolded that reminded me of what i loved most about Mizoguchi, the interactions of one man with a different cast of figures and characters around him trying to subtly and more directly influence his actions according to their motivations. You see this is The Saragossa Manuscript as well. One man, completely ignorant, wandering in confusion, with all these characters trying to unfold a secret plot around him. Usually trying to trick him into marriage and procreating a child. in Balthazar the forces are more unclear but still the same, the forceful drawing between him and Rosa into an inseparable union. When I got to my retail job the next day, this girl I had been working with appeared out of nowhere between the clothes racks, exactly how she would in a Has film and she was lusting after me in the same way. That broke my reality.

The Guggenheim never has a good show when I visit and their on-view stuff always seems limited. >>134067388No lol I honestly have no clue.

>>134067920No but they did reduce their classic collection a bit, for better and worse. Idk if I just went a particular route through the floors or what but there's definitely an emphasis on contemporary (a lot of fucking photography which is absolutely of no interest to me, for both personal and aesthetic reasons I think you'd agree with re: the tampon comment), and a sort of weird rehistoricization of certain things. Like they just casually compressed all their Picasso's in a claustrophobic way, took down some Matisses; the Derain I'm talking about was literally on the back wall beside a staircase whereas before it probably would've been positioned beside a Braque in the Matisse room. The surrealism stuff got a new swanky room for some reason, even though most of that stuff is visually one-hit-and-done. I don't want to bitch too much because some of it was great, but like it's MoMa, they're fucking loaded, and they have some of the greatest works of all time, they can take it.

>>134069425he does it in more of a tradition having to do with literary critique instead of like an allegory of human interaction. The first historical novels were all incredibly encyclopedic and the novel of Saragossa Manuscript is the same but it adds the element of stories being inside other stories that you have to slowly unravel. With Mizoguchi its the same they're not really making allegorical comments on human behavior but its more like a psychological thing having to do with the structure of your own personal mind in a sort of closed circuit. Like a novel being representative of one mans mind, so all these different figures and characters and their plots are different nodes woven over each other in pink fleshy masses. A film just takes it further by having these nodes become 3rd dimensional objects. Now thats not to say its something as simple as everything is just inside his mind so its so deep now or something, but the act of uncovering and creating new associations and connections between these nodes is a unique experience outside of psychology and really has much more to do at that point with historiography, anthropology and biology

>>134070010i appreciate his nervousness, his inhuman mannerisms and out-of-earth way of standing. it reminds me of myself

Did anyone finish downloading River of Fundament? Is the quality half decent?

Just watched close up, interesting film but overall very boring.

>>134070793Same exact impression. boring as fuck. The Kiarostami praise must be a critical point.

>>134065849Seen all cremaster and river of fundament parts, also the Bjork movie. Pick a random segment from cremaster and give it a go- if you like it then proceed, if not then you’re going to dislike everything else.

>>134070676>311 minutes>7.89 GB fileWell it won't be great>>134070793>>134070864>boring Non criticism. The film was beautiful

>>134070921Howd you see River of Fundament?

>>134070958Yeah I'm not making a criticism dumbass I'm telling you my opinion. And yeah it was beautiful but I wasn't in the mood for something beautiful when I saw it. I wanted a story and got a boring one.

>>134071032

Close-Up was entertaining and based

>>134071032>wanted a storyThen why did you pick a Kiarostami film you dumb fuck?

>>134069705holy fuck this is great. how do you rip from mubi i want to save a lot of this stuff some of its not even on rutracker

>>134071123What part did you find entertaining? I find the concept based in a Herozgian way.

>>134070676Only downloaded it to farm ratio. No interest in Barney garbage whatsoever.

>>134071170All of it

>>134071143Because someone on here recommended it to me asshole. Forgot you faggots digest a lot of shit for the sake of digesting it. >>134071170>Herzogianmy b

>>134070958>The film was beautifulElaborate.Personally, I disagree, Kiarostami's best when he's able to do long takes and film outside. I felt like the cinéma vérité thing he was going for was not very engaging and when it was, the novelty wore off quickly. Also ugly, you can barely make anything when the characters are obscured by huge shadows during the court room scenes. The first half and final sequences where beautiful sure, but then the other 70 minutes of the movie.

>>134071169MUBI is DRM protected and the way to rip is kept very secret.

>>134071193I love that scene.>>134071219I thought the setup was entertaining but by the time we got to the court scene I wanted it to be over.

>>134071193Pleasantly surprised at the quality, thanks

>>134071219>>134071123>Why do you like it?>Because uhhh movie good>Why is it good?>Because uhhh based?Can we nuke /film/?

>>134071275Why wouldn't you just screen record and adjust the quality? It's literally easier.

>>134071293I doubt this is all he has to say, user. We're just getting started here. Don't be a dick untimely, and don't act like you're above conversational flags.

>>134071275you serious?

>>134071293>it was bad because it was boring>it was beautiful but I wasn't in the mood for something beautiful when I saw it>wanted a story and got a boring oneAh yes, much better.

>>134071236>mub i'm a faggot who needs story therefore other people must be faggots tooKys

>>134071399Hey I'm >>134071374 don't start dicking out on me too faggot.

>>134071374I'm not but fucking elaborate beyond "uhhh you're wrong, movie good">>134071399I didn't say any of that, I did expand on why I didn't like it >>134071245

shut up faget

>>134071326Because recording the screen will get you worse quality than grabbed the stream directly.>>134071393Yes.

>>134071403Hey I'm just explaining my bad impression of the film. And don't act like you're so far up your own ass you eschew the primary function of narrative in cinema. Everyone watches for the story, no matter how much that contort that. Some of us just finished undergrad and have the self-respect to admit that rather than swallowing theoretical penis whole.

>>134071236>digest a lot of shit for the sake of digesting itthis is the /film/ forum, we are writing in the sand

>>134071245I thought the narrative was engaging and you are right about the look, it has very cheap look worn down look but that's what makes the moments of beauty so impactful. The ending is fantastic because of this and so is the beginning with the bottle rolling down the hill. It's engaging as a drama and the thin line between reality and fantasy is shown very well. The film explores these notions of reality and fantasy. Nice music too.

>>134071538tru

>>134071523Story is not important. The entire alienation trilogy from Antonioni, all those films have basic ass stories but they are great.

Another webmless thread

>>134071637>the act of conveyance itself isn't storyOh, god, you're not Bay shill are you?

>>134071637story =/= plot surely if you're into film enough to have read enough criticism to appreciate Kiarostami surely you know this

>>134070967Museum screening in Houston. Who gives a shit?

>>134071731>Who gives a shitThat's a clever joke, right? Because the movie is about shit. I'm interested in how many people see Barney irl. Don't be so defensive.

>>134071669Well yes i'm. The story is the logline, the basic events in the film.>>134071720Story is plot.

>>134066683kek

>>134071804Aight dude we disagreed about this before. I went the extra step to read up and understand a bit how you came to your view, and I empathize with you more now. Are you really so disingenuous and close-minded you didn't reevaluate your own opinions on narrative in film? Take your autism meds, mate, or at least admit you have a drastically slanted view on cinema.

>>134071553>it has very cheap look worn down look but that's what makes the moments of beauty so impactful.That's true, the sequence when he meets the director he was impersonating was beautiful, I didn't think the movie was ugly until the court room scene and I wish we would of had less of that. It was interesting exploring the mentality of someone who wants to make art but doesn't have the means/income to do so but it's not a film I'd watch again or own. I guess I'm jaded on the "based on a true story"/whatever trope because I didn't find blurring of narrative and real life to be all that interesting after the original impression.

Have any of you guys made a film/short? is it good? i mean all those hours watching kino have to payoff, right? do you have the balls to share it?

>>134071523>everyone watches for the storyPlease explain to me everyone who watches Stan Brakhage films and what they’re watching for

>>134071804Also for the record you couldn't talk your way out of a fucking YA novel you so clearly lack the basic understanding of narrative functions. Really blows me away that you enjoy film unless your exclusively a tech guy.

>>134071931>who watches Stan Brakhage films and what they’re watching forIdk who watches Brakhage, but I watch to see what he's doing with the camera, which in itself is a narrative. A highly abstract one, sure, but if you really just think you're watching pictures move in the same sense that Stockhausen generates arbitrary strikes in a song you're retarded. It's all composition.

>>134068034not really>>134067808check out movies by Masahiro Shinoda, like Killers on Parade or Youth in Fury. Not quite as theatrical but it nails the 60's japanese new wave/pop aesthetic

Now that we're in the topic of films with no real story, favorite non narrative? For me? It's Satyricon
