What are some of the best movies that are seemingly never talked about on here?

That's a fantastic film OP. Winter's Light isn't talked about enough here, even though it's high quality Bergman.

Fuck this Korean thriller meme. The Chaser, The Man from Nowhere, Memories of Murder, The Yellow Sea, A Bittersweet Life - all fucking barely above mediocre. All too long and obsessed with knives and pornography.

Harakiri is actually one of Cred Forums's staples

I've never seen anything by Robert Altman or Roman Polanski (cept Rosemary's Baby) here.

Under the Boardwalk

Basically any canonized director who isn't the most obvious upper echelon or never made overtly masculine films is ignored here.

what about lesson of the evil?

this.
>if it's on Cred Forums it's a must-not-see.

If you like this you might try twilight samurai

okay I watched Repulsion recently so I'm gonna talk about it.

Totally blew me away. Every frame is gorgeous. Love that high contrast black and white cinematography, especially with Carol constantly glowing in white among gray backgrounds and battling men dressed in black. The soundtrack with jarring repetitive noises works in disturbing the viewer more than a typical score would. Especially liked in early scenes where the two sisters were just talking and there's faint screams in the background. Got pretty freaky as it built up so it succeeded as a horror movie.

Can't say it's an all-time favorite yet but I could see it becoming one as time goes on.

Also had a hard time wrapping my head around the renowned statutory rapist Polanski making a blatantly feminist film about rejecting society's standards of sexuality.

Memories of Murder is really great. I think it totally deserves it's reputation. Oldboy on the other hand is the most overrated film of the 21st Century so far.

The Yellow Sea is mediocre with one great sequence (planning the murder around the staircase lights then using that knowledge to see how his plan is blowing up)

The Man From Nowhere was terrible. The super cool loner with a heart of gold and penchant for violence who befriends a little girl seemed like every NEET/anime fan/pedo's fantasy but they played it totally straight. Corny nonsense

All in all I agree. Korean is a meme

Has some shitty moments, but Miike is a double edge director and at the end you find it really entertaining.

It's shocking how little Fassbinder gets posted here. Tbh I hardly ever see German film discussion except the occasional token Lang thread. I think it's because modern German cinema has fallen off and the only "old" (like pre-90s) movies Cred Forums watches are American or Japanese.

This as well.

These are unpopular here but I still see them occasionally.

>rape is against societies sexual standard
>hard to imagine why a rapist would make a movie shitting on social sexual standards

I think Fass i just hard to get into because he has so many films and no obvious entry way. His two most known titles are both long television works, and the length probably makes them daunting. That and his status as a melodrama director, which doesn't appeal to most young male movie watchers.

source: ive never seen a fassbinder myself, but out of laziness

Start with Angst Essen Seele Auf, it's accessible and generally considered one of his best.

...

but its an anti-rape film?

...

That's how he gets you user I'm shitposting stop giving me yous

Sorry to be an annoying pointedexter, but while good, Welt am Draht (World on a Wire) is mainly popular in predominantly male, nerdy communities such as this one. Maria Braun is a far more renowned film. assuming you were talking about WAD and BA

>scenes women will never understand

>ophuls
implying Cred Forums could ever into ophuls or angelopoulos.

angelopoulos would go right over their heads and they would hate the storylines of any ophuls films because of muh feminism.

I was and I assumed the same thing.

...

Posting something pertinent that isn't Asian.

Visitor to a Museum is good too

only contrarians who don't understand beyond surface level criticisms dislike this masterpiece

just watched this. really surprised me. good stuff.

I tried bringing up Brick a couple times on Cred Forums. Its a total love or hate movie.

No one talks about Taiwanese cinema.

this

Committing sudoku looks like it would be extremely painful.

For anyone, really.

Yeah. Repulsion is classic psychological horror, and should be mentioned more.

Honestly, we don't even talk about Hitchcock.

This one was really good. I enjoy the neo-noir tone in the movie.

Also I never see anyone talk about pic related which is a good coming-of-age-story.

Manliest movie ever made by our lovable right wing Hemingway of film: John Milius.

Headless (2015)
Sort of sequel/spin off to Found (2012) which is also great but I liked Headless better

for you

My first time on this board but I've never seen anyone talk about Office Space

Every good movie made before 1990 that isn't sci-fi/crime genreshit.

Harakiri is the best movie of all time

It was meme'd to hell and back

Ah, shame. When, out of interest?
Feel free to post some : )

Because you can't see the majority of it in anything but awful 90s laserdisc quality

you take that movie over Conan?

...

Another survival/chase film, the granddaddy of them. It's simple almost to a fault but has a ton of charm. Practically wordless and driven only by motion and drum beats

Amazing movie. Best aussia kino. Bad Boy Bubby is another good one.

I just DVR'd this off of TCM. I'll try to watch it tomorrow. :)

They are different takes of the same flavour, Conan is a Nietzchean fable disguised as a fantasy flick while TWATHL has a more classic style, whit a total 30/40s feel.

I love them both.
