Can’t stop thinking about that flash back in Possible Love where she wakes up early in the morning and eats the apple. It’s the only time when she’s not being watched :(
This line is specifically so key to her character and how it informs her filmmaking style; ‘trying to love these people’ by ostensibly giving voice to them but ultimately you see her increasingly wanting to project her own narrative and imagination to their stories.
@schmcgloon From 2007. The cut of the picture to the score can be found on internet archive. It robs the picture out of all its comedy, but it severely highlight the drama. Hisaishi rightfully views The General as more of an action picture.(It sounds like it’s straight out of The Wind Rises)
Watching The General (1926) with the Joe Hisaishi score kind of ruins the picture. Every time you watch a screening of it afterwards without the Hisaishi’s score you can’t help but think “I could be watching this with the Hisaishi score…”
Cho Yeo-joeng does such an incredible job playing the most unlikable snake ever. It’s incredible how hatable her character is. This scene made me so sick.
Gladiator (2000) was made to be watched while downing 3 glasses genesis with your boys, riffing over all the dialogue scenes and shutting the fuck up during the coliseum scenes. Ridley Scot is the best.
Vimeo took down all of my films! Which is okay! It’s a dead site. Will be drip posting all of my work in the next few days over to YouTube. It will also be where I host all of my work from now on. Subscribe to my channel to check out my MP4 cinema. 🔗 in 🧵
