Fantápolis

Pensado como cine.

[Lost In Film @LostInFilm]

Remembering the magical and poetic compositions of cinematographer Néstor Almendros, who was born on this day in 1930. A master of natural light who worked with some of the most important directors in cinema history, such as Truffaut, Rohmer and Malick.

Navi Pillay, Sept. 2012: “Charlie Hebdo is doubly irresponsible to publish these cartoons.” She called the cartoons “malicious and deliberately provocative.” Pillay “fully understands why people wish to protest strongly against the cartoons.”

الألمان لا يحتفلون بالهولوكوست.
اليابانيون لا ينزلون إلى الشوارع للاحتفال بهجوم بيرل هاربر.
الأمريكيون لا يحتفلون بذكرى قنبله هيروشيما وناجازاكي.
لكن الفلسطينيين ومؤيديهم ينزلون إلى الشوارع للاحتفال بيوم ٧ أكتوبر، اليوم الذي اغتصبوا فيه اليهوديات وقتلوا المدنيين وأحرقوهم أحياء...

This film is 100 years old.

AI still can’t replicate German Expressionism.

Indian Captain Smit Machchhar is a hero, not a coworker in a “mid-air altercation.”

He told Modi he was on the floor, still being beaten, and went for one last push to open the door. After 9/11, that door was built to lock killers out. This time the jihadist was already in the seat.

A Hindu from India, stabbed in the cockpit on the way to Tel Aviv, he saved 174 people because he didn’t surrender to jihad.

He should sue the BBC and every outlet that demonized him for fighting jihad!

Netflix refused to stream the NOVA documentary about the October 7 massacre because it was too political.

The documentary reconstructs the massacre using footage captured by the victims and the Hamas terrorists themselves.

More than 360 people were murdered at the festival and dozens were taken hostage.

Netflix looked at footage documenting exactly what Hamas did that day and decided its viewers should not see it.

Calling the massacre of Jews too political to show tells you exactly where Netflix stands.

Music is haram in Islam, so the Taliban recently collected and burned musical instruments in Afghanistan’s Logar province to enforce true Islam and Sharia law.

This is true Islam.

The Taliban enforce and impose true Islam. They are true Muslims and terrorists.

El mundo islámico es ultraconservador, ultrareligioso, ultrapatriarcal y ultrahomófobo. Es todo lo que la izquierda dice rechazar y combatir. Y ahí los tienes, haciendo una extraña causa común contra su verdadero enemigo; la libertad.

Pretty cool seeing how creatives like Karel Zeman in 1950s Czechoslovakia had to get so innovative before digital changed everything.

One of the most difficult shots I ever took. Favaritx lighthouse right before totality in Menorca, with my friends at photopills. Shooting from a boat in choppy water. Never again 😂

Some folks don’t believe that a “principled AI company” would destroy books after they suck out all the information for their models, even one-of-a-kind books and manuscripts.

Here it is admitted in open court.

@BruxistGrin @archeohistories Go back to school. Islam did not exist until more than 1000 years later, and Christians almost 600 years. Jesus was Jewish, either

[KIYASU/キヤス『映画探検ログ』 @kiyasu]

50年以上前に描かれた、人間が巨大種族のペットとして扱われる世界。奇怪で異様な世界と柔らかな色彩のギャップが美しく深い。SFアニメーション史に残る、唯一無二の怪作。

[Cuentos peronistas @ariel_kocik]

En el Día del Periodista, recordamos a un cronista que, a pesar de haber sido un ferviente militante peronista en 1946, encontró la muerte en las cárceles del propio justicialismo. Su trágico final ocurrió luego de criticar de forma moderada al poder y al régimen penitenciario.

La famosa escena del lago con la niña María en «Frankenstein» (1931), de James Whale, estuvo censurada de la mayoría de las copias en circulación cerca de 54 años. El metraje perdido fue redescubierto en el British National Film Archive y comenzó a restaurarse hacia 1985-1986...

Luis Buñuel’s ‘Un Chien Andalou’ premiered in Paris on this day in 1929.

The surrealist film was a collaboration between Buñuel and Salvador Dalí, sparked by the perfect alignment of dreams the two artists had. The result was a unique cult classic: dreamlike, anti-narrative, and deeply provocative, and built entirely to shatter the norms of bourgeois logic and mainstream cinema at the time.

RIP Marjane Satrapi, the great cartoonist and film director, best known for PERSEPOLIS. She was only 56. A great talent. She will be missed.
