[Зеленоглазка]

Четыре Куросавы сразу.

[ORANGE'71]

51. A Clockwork Orange (Stanley Kubrick, 1971, UK) - 137

 

Это получается, три моих любимых фильма попали в топ-51!

 

 

Из 2010-ых остались только Древо и Паразиты, или забыл кого?

 

Кстати, Джокера так и не было? Если так, то в топ-50 уже вряд ли попадет.

 

4й эпизод в топ-50, так понимаю.

 

 

В топ-10 вангую как-то так:

 

 

THE GODFATHER

CITIZEN KANE

2001: A SPACE ODYSSEY

PULP FICTION

MULHOLLAND DR.

PARASITE

VERTIGO

8 1/2

SEVEN SAMURAI

PSYCHO

 

[Evil.man]

 

4й эпизод в топ-50, так понимаю.

 

 

87 votes

 

102. Star Wars (George Lucas, 1977, USA)

[ORANGE'71]

87 votes

 

102. Star Wars (George Lucas, 1977, USA)

5й выше, получается..

 

"Хищника", кстати, в тысячу не завезли. Ну да, топ-25 составить и отправить это же не то же самое, что в опросе тыкнуть в один пункт..

[GlitchMob]

Кстати, Джокера так и не было? Если так, то в топ-50 уже вряд ли попадет.

его и близко к 1000 месту не подпустят )))

[kennyfisher]

Всегда поражало это наяривание на бензопилу

[MysteryMan]

"Хищника", кстати, в тысячу не завезли. Ну да, топ-25 составить и отправить это же не то же самое, что в опросе тыкнуть в один пункт..

 

Брэнд просто поздно узнал об опросе

[empathy]

Кстати, Джокера так и не было? Если так, то в топ-50 уже вряд ли попадет.

 

думаю, будет.

 

В топ-10 вангую как-то так:

CITIZEN KANE

2001: A SPACE ODYSSEY

PULP FICTION

а как же

 

in the mood for love

yi yi

spirited away

 

 

[GlitchMob]

ой, ну если Джокер попадёт в топ-50, то это величайший рофл )) сам не против этого ни разу, но поржу однозначно

[ORANGE'71]

думаю, будет.

 

 

 

а как же

 

in the mood for love

yi yi

spirited away

 

Да ну, не верю по обоим пунктам.

[Зеленоглазка]

По поводу "Крестного отца". У них есть примечание:

 

Please note that if a film trilogy or multiple films were chosen in one position on a ballot, the one vote for that film selection was split. For example, if a voter selected The Godfather Parts I & II in one position on their ballot, then each Godfather film received 0.5 votes.

 

Т.е. некорректное заполнение некоторых бюллетеней может снизить общие баллы каждой из частей. Я все-таки думаю, что КО-1 будет на первом месте, но кто знает, могут быть и сюрпризы.

[MaximumCoool]

Кстати, Джокера так и не было? Если так, то в топ-50 уже вряд ли попадет.

Это топ американских критегов? Если да, то его там не будет, они его сильно хейтят, даже в топ 1000 не было бы.

[Rertern]

TSPDT - попсовый рейтинг.

[MysteryMan]

Это топ американских критегов? Если да, то его там не будет, они его сильно хейтят, даже в топ 1000 не было бы.

Outside Noise (Ted Fendt)

 

 

trailer

 

Ted Fendt’s body of work is at least in part characterized by its very purposeful progression. His films are all dryly comedic character studies of some sort or another; his earliest works were short comedic sketches akin to those of Eric Rohmer and Luc Moullet, though transposed onto contemporary Haddonfield, New Jersey, the director’s suburban hometown. These sketch-like films gave way to the Philadelphia-set features Short Stay and Classical Period, which embraced a similar sense of humor and 16mm aesthetic, while obscuring the set up/punchline structures of his earlier work between these two.

Fendt centers on three young women, Mia, Daniela, and Natasha, who exemplify a comfort with normal social situations elusive to the director’s previous protagonists, yet who still find themselves burdened by a general sense of restlessness and dissatisfaction. Outside Noise takes great pains to avoid complicating the lives of its protagonists, instead refusing them much forward momentum at all, their cross-continental trek from New York to Berlin to Vienna hardly registering as more than an abrupt change in scenery (and even then…).

Outside Noise becomes a bit of a balancing act, pushing the script as far away from archetypal film narrative as possible without losing pace or structure. In managing this, Fendt accomplishes an equilibrium without signifying much exertion, producing a work that reveals itself in unforced fashion, moving toward an emotional spectrum out of the reach of most filmmakers.

 

Topology of Sirens (Jonathan Davies)

 

 

 

The way in which people interact with the archaic or outmoded is an ever-evolving proposition. Especially given the unbelievable pace of the 20th and 21st centuries, where innumerable technologies have been developed, widely used, and then abandoned for the next shiny thing, devices that once were widely taken for granted just a decade or so ago take on a different aura entirely, one almost akin to uncovering a buried, obscure treasure.

Jonathan Davies’s Topology of Sirens, one of the most assured and evocative feature debuts of the past few years, which premieres as part of the FIDMarseille International Competition, takes this paradox as one of its primary animating forces. It follows Cas (documentary filmmaker Courtney Stephens), a sound engineer who moves into her deceased aunt’s home in what appears to be an unnamed neighborhood of Los Angeles. As she reconnects with her friends within the local experimental music scene, she discovers within a locked closet of the house a rare hurdy-gurdy. Inside the outdated instrument are seven answering machine mini-cassette tapes, each labeled with a mysterious symbol and containing different varieties of soundscapes and audio effects. This cryptic find begins a loose series of wanderings across the greater LA area, as linkages and coincidences pile up without necessarily coalescing into a unifying purpose or meaning.

Much of what compels about Topology of Sirens stems from this approach to narrative and how it maps onto Davies’s contemplative style. The film feels very much of a piece with Tyler Taormina’s Ham on Rye from 2019: Taormina and Davies are part of a drone music duo, produced each other’s films, and both films are gorgeously lensed by Carson Lund (disclosure: all three are friends of this writer), but while that film adhered to a clear if powerful structural trajectory, no such net exists for Topology. Instead, the film feels refreshingly charged in its conviction that any situation, any encounter, can unlock another link in the chain toward comprehension, and that the strength of the revelation can be felt much more than it can be explicated.

In an interview for FIDMarseille, Davies attributes the governing aesthetic and narrative principles to ‘90s PC point-and-click adventure games, but Topology of Sirens unfolds in ways that hew much closer and deeper to typically cinematic means. Shot mostly in master shots, which frequently move with gliding precision across rooms, the film’s quiet nature — there is relatively little dialogue in the film, charmingly credited as “featuring dialogue from the cast” — allows for both a bounty of interstitial moments of natural and suburban landmarks and a series of truly startling and magical ruptures.

 

Beatrix (Lilith Kraxner and Milena Czernovsky)

 

 

A directorial debut so strong that it was selected for both FIDMarseille’s First Film section and main International Competition, Austrian entry Beatrix is a major discovery, the work of two directors and an actor at the outset of their careers already with a defined perspective and a deft understanding of cinematic language. Though all involved have worked in the film industry and with each other in various capacities, Beatrix marks the first instance of Lilith Kraxner and Milena Czernovsky co-directing a film together, with their star, performance artist Eva Sommer (who was awarded Best Actress in the First Film category), also newly acquainted with the feature-length medium. A new configuration for this team and likely their most involved undertaking to date, but one wouldn’t so easily discern this watching Beatrix, an intimate, plain-spoken film, obviously the creation of artists thinking on a higher level.

Kraxner, Czernovsky, and Sommer wrestle with the idea of how to depict the undepicted, particularly how to capture those moments where we are totally unobserved and vulnerable without indulging cinema’s tendency toward voyeurism. Sommer’s performance is essential to the project in this regard, entirely improvised though resembling something much more workshopped, a la the films of Maren Ade. She is able to negotiate the camera’s gaze and the need to achieve a sense of naturalism, essentially performing a non-performance. Kraxner & Czernovsky build on their actor’s work savvily, confronting the audience with her vulnerability, often presenting Sommer nude in the casual fashion one adopts when home alone, creating brilliant tension between camera, subject, and audience. Beatrix instantly establishes Kraxner, Czernovsky, and Sommer as major artists, pursuing lofty, risky ideas with verve and ingenuity — so exciting to see in a debut feature!
