Festival gives you a career

they boo films and openly mock them during the screening. taxi driver and pulp fiction were famously booed but won the palme d'or

>Sounds like he's pretty chill.
>is throwing a bitch fit because people said mean things online

Doesn't matter. John F. Donovan is already Cred Forumscore

A bitch fit?

wtf? did he trigger you? YOU are the one having a bitch fit

Dolan pls

why does he always looks so smug

>Pulp Fiction
The only boo I heard was from one woman who was escorted out...

Got anything else?

Audience members scream and fight during the movies. Also, people often boo during the awards ceremony.

>tfw want to fuck him, but also want to punch him
He's such a narcissistic cry baby. Every creator has their critics, but most of them don't bitch about it on twitter and every other interview they give.

Tree of Life got booed as well
It's actually rare for a film to not get booed at Cannes

Why? Was this always a thing or a recent development?

He's a gay artist (as opposed to entertainer). They almost always look smug. But they have reasons to be. They have some talent. in the movie indusrty, that's surprisingly rare these days.

Google you nigger

French people aren't a recent development

So French people being rude is not just pre-internet meme?

>people who stuff snails and frogs in their face are uncivilized
Well, color me shocked.

>narcissistic bitch boy can't handle the bantz

What a surprise. Good riddance to the useless faggot.

they've only developed recently though

Always been like that.

Mark Kermode got thrown out of The Idiots for 30 minutes of screaming that he was going to rape Von Trier.

im not sure thats what he said

kek, it sounds like a fun event, what's dolan's problem?

He just hates French people. Little known fact: French-Canadians HATE the French people of France.

He claims he screamed "Il est merde! Il est merde!" (It's shit it's shit), but people who were there claim he screamed stuff about rape.

Maybe my views are skewed due to over a decade on Cred Forums. But threatening to rape Lars seems a bit more excusable. It's so audacious and absurd that it's hard to take seriously. But just heckling a movie by calling it shit is lame on top of being low class.

I watched Tree of Life by myself and have never booed harder at anything in my life.

Twinks seldom survive turning 22, by 25 they're all ruined.

That said he's still pretty enough for me.

It seems he's a bottom.

i bet ur dad booed when you came out of your moms snatch

Bottoms can't get their dicks sucked?

My dad is Malick.

What now?

You mean stepdad
Malick has no children of his own, he's a cuck just like us

You are a fortunate soul

goes both ways

He'd rather suck yours

69 bitch

I know, but our hatred is adulterated and pure.

Why not just say you dont want to release an unfinished product? Seems unprofessional to throw in the boogeyman part.

Because he wants sympathy

>hey, let's give some untalented rich child, that keeps remaking the same film about gay people again and again, a bunch of awards
>wow, that couldn't possibly go badly

Cannes everyone

>ywn be a talented, pretty, gay dandy working in the art industry
I should have been aborted.

The word "trolling" was a mistake. It's now just used as a en excuse to ignore dissenting opinions

He thinks Funny games is a good movie so he's irrelevant at this point.

Second (of two) movies that I've nearly walked out of I was having such a bad time.

Normally I can get through a shit movie just by looking at it from a technical level but it was fucked even there.

I don't think you're supposed to have a good time while watching a movie about a family being tortured. Especially not from a moralfag like Haneke who made the thing to deconstruct the thrilling violence of horror films, and make the audience feel uncomfortable and complicit in what is happening since they're the ones paying to see it.

It's Haneke's worst film for sure, but it's not a bad movie by any means. And in Xavier's defense, he isn't the most cultured guy out there. I don't think he has really seen that many great movies.

I thought it was utter trash on every level, that's what I mean by "bad time". Never even glanced at the director's work since. Anything you recommend for a second chance?

>Second (of two) movies that I've nearly walked out of I was having such a bad time.

What was the first one?

>people who eat suspect substances such as pudding and sheep entrails are uncivilized
Shocking!

Not that guy but Fragments and Seventh Continent are the best though episodic movies are a dime a dozen in german-language films and his two aren't really elevated from the regular.

shit, no wonder Cred Forums loves that talentless hack

So he can't handle the bantz?

The Counselor.

jesus fucking christ. Every movie I've ever watched since has been given a free pass because it WASN'T The Counselor.

It had me literally doubt Ridley Scott for at least two more movies he made to prove he hadn't just fluked his way through.

fuck it, I'll give them a go before horror season starts and I just get miserable again

That's interesting. I didn't see anything wrong with it from the perspective of writing, directing, or acting. Except for the fact that its message is beaten into your head in the crudest way possible.

I think "Amour" is his most successful film, at least in the mainstream. Maybe start with that. I was really into "Benny's Video", but that was more due to some of my personal reasons rather than the movie on its own merit. I heard great things about "The White Ribbon", but I haven't seen it. "La Pianiste" is gross and unpleasant, but I enjoyed it thoroughly. For the most part it was fairly subtle. For example you're not told that the protagonist was pushed into being a piano player by her cunt mother, or that she doesn't enjoy her work. But you can gather as much by noticing that she doesn't even have a piano in her apartment.

What I really appreciate about his films is how grounded they feel. The only music you'll hear is the music the characters are hearing, and the camera tends to be static, it's angles neutral. There's no signaling that something awful is about to happen, or that this character is superior to the one they're talking to. It's almost a voyeuristic experience. Very clinical. Cold. Some people like it, some don't.

I haven't seen 71 Fragments yet. Seventh Continent was a bit too much for me.

I find it interesting neither of you have a common link. I'll give Fragments a go because it's his first, and The Piano Teacher because it's an adaptation.

Thanks guys.

Toughen up you little fairy.

You'd think that a guy who enjoys taking dicks up his ass would be able to take some banter.

Cache is lit

This interests me because I rarely get swept up in over analysis of creative media that are supposed to be heavily based on post-colonial guilt. Mainly because I don't have an ounce of it. I have plenty of empathy coming out of my ass but guilt for what others did? It just doesn't formulate whatsoever.

I didn't realise this was "hidden" which is on my Cred Forums reccommded-so-it-must-be-good lists.

Kermode is a based god and Cannes is a shitpile full of the world's most overpaid pretentious detritus.

Fuck Cannes, and fuck you OP :DDDD

I'd probably have a mental breakdown if i was presenting my movie and people were booing it, can't blame him

Gooby pls

>thinks the counselor is bad
>thinks funny games is bad
>thinks dolan is bad
Jeez just go back to redit already

Which is the best Dolan film anyway? I only watched two, one was interesting, the other was just pretty.

Which ones? I thought Laurence Anyways and Tom at the Farm were pretty good, I Killed My Mother a good debut but aimless and Mommy pretty bad.
Haven't seen Heartbeats yet.

Tom and Heartbeats. I liked Tom, but mostly for the complicated grief and replacement aspects. I think it would have worked better as a drama. Heartbeats was visually great, but I found the story dull and the characters profoundly unlikable.

Yeah he seems to prefer writing about unlikable characters
Laurence is probably the one decent protagonist he's written
It worked in Tom at the Farm because it was basically a chamber film with character tensions but in his other films you're supposed to feel sympathy towards people who are basically cunts

>characters profoundly unlikable.
Whenever someone says a movie is bad for this reason , I immediately throw their opinion in the trash

It's fine to write a story about shitty people if the story is good and the characters are interesting. But it's not and they're not, it's just a love triangle. No one develops in any way. No one learns anything. It was very unsatisfying overall.

kek

Fuck I'd love to destroy his ass

fak u dolan.

>tfw
and i'm not even gay desu
