Along_the_Wire I think I made it through 10 minutes of Annie Hall, don’t know if I’ve seen Manhattan. I really hate everything I’ve ever seen of his. Plus the pedo thing. He’s so bloody creepy.
Rate The Last Movie you Watched
Along_the_Wire yup, Hannah and her sisters too
Just watched Conclave with Ralph Fiennes, superb.
4 white smokes out of 5.
September 5 (2024). Not sure I needed to see this in a movie theatre. Felt like a made for TV movie with some good acting, but bad editing. It helped I didn’t remember what actually happened in the end. Still, meh.
I’m Still Here
8/10
Amps Interesting that you mention contrast, I suppose that’s why it works well in Oxford, given that medieval and modern are often shunted up against each other.
mono-stereo it’s not a hard and fast rule, more horses for courses, but with the brutalist stuff it has very narrow design choices so to an extent you can talk about it in broad ish terms.
General movie topic, a great new interview with Michael Mann about Thief and Heat 2.

deadhead Loved it, think it’s deserves better than an 8!
all subjective but I don’t know do you think it’s as good as City of God for example?
deadhead they’re different films, obviously, but they’re both 10/10 for me
Long flight to Vietnam tmrw so hopefully I may actually watch a film! It’s been ages since I’ve watched anything really decent. Society of the Snow was probably the last one (and that was a recommendation on here)
What would people recommend at the moment (no marvel, sci fi shite)
