Christopher Nolan says younger audiences are utterly rejecting AI-generated slop.
“[My sons'] judgment of AI slop has been immediate and harsh. They see it for what it is very quickly – and it’s much easier for them to identify it, because it grew out of an online world they know really well.”

Krzysztof Kieślowski on how he watched movies, how they affected his life and his views on stealing from other movies:
"The truth is that I watched masses of films - especially at film school - and I loved a lot of them. But can you call that influence? I think that to this day, apart from a few exceptions, I watch films like a member of the public rather than a director. It's a completely different way of looking at things. Of course, I watch with a professional eye if somebody asks me for advice or something. Then I try to analyse the film, watch it professionally. But if I go to the cinema - which happens very rarely - I try to watch films like the audience does. That is, I try to allow myself to be moved, surrender to the magic, if it's there, on the screen, and to believe the story somebody's telling. And then it's hard to talk of influence.
Basically, if a film is good, and if I like it, then I watch it far less analytically than if I don't like it. It's hard to say that bad films have an influence; it's the good ones that influence us. And I try to watch - or rather, do watch - good films in the spirit in which they were made. I don't try to analyse them. It was the same thing at school, too. I watched 'Citizen Kane' (1941) a hundred times. If you insisted, I could sit down and probably draw or describe individual takes, but that's not what was important to me. What was important, was the fact that I took part in the film. I experienced it.
Nor do I think that there's anything wrong in stealing. If somebody's gone that way before and it's proved to be good, then you have to steal it immediately. If I steal from good films, and if this later becomes part of my own world, then I steal without qualms. This often happens completely without my being aware of it, but that doesn't mean that I don't do it - it did happen but it wasn't calculated, or premeditated. It's not straight plagiarism. To put it another way, films are simply part of our lives. We get up in the morning, we go to work or we don't got to work. We go to sleep. We make love. We hate. We watch films. We talk to our friends, to our families. We experience our children's problems or the problems of our children's friends. And the films are there somewhere, too. They also stay somewhere within us. They become part of our own lives, of our own inner selves. They stay with us just as much as all those things which really happened. I don't think they're any different from real events, apart from the fact that they're invented. But that doesn't matter. They stay with us. I steal takes from films, scenes, or solutions, just as I steal stories and afterwards I can't even remember where I stole them from."

Ludwig Göransson breaks down the score of ‘THE ODYSSEY’ in a new featurette.
This included rediscovering instruments from the Bronze Age as well as using bronze itself in the musical process.
‘BACKROOMS’ director Kane Parsons says he would get “no enjoyment” out of using generative AI on any project — “It defeats the purpose entirely for me.”
“I think I'm in the same boat as most well-adjusted people. If I could snap my fingers and make generative Al disappear forever, I probably would.”

the original iconic BACKROOMS photo was yellow because the camera incorrectly white balanced.
you can easily recreate the look by pushing your camera very warm to create a similar feel without editing.
this subway station in Toronto actually has white walls.
Olá cinefilia!!
Nas últimas semanas eu desenvolvi um site que é um arquivo de revistas de cinema antigas.
O foco é em fazer full-text search e facilitar a leitura (assim você não precisa ficar dando zoom em PDF).
