Would love feedback to see where I can improve and discussion over whether my thesis is correct.
Edit: Thank you so much for all the feedback, especially the criticisms. They will really help me grow as an editor. I'll start working on my next video soon!
Hey all. Found this jacket and Iโm really curious about it. I know Quentin Tarantino is estranged from his dad, but I didnโt really know where else to go and couldnโt find anything like this jacket. Thought it would be a cool share anyways. Hope this isnโt against the rules, but if anyone can shed some light on if this is a legit Tony Tarantino jacket that would be awesome. https://imgur.com/a/YS6NoUS/

... keep reading on reddit โกQUENTIN TARANTINO + TONY SCOTT = TRUE ROMANCE....ONE OF THE BEST FILMS OF THE 90'S IS COMING TO MIAMI'S O CINEMA ON FRIDAY, MARCH 28...ONE NIGHT ONLY.. GET TICKETS HERE http://www.o-cinema.org/event/true-romance
Inspired by u/ PopeDarthPaul's post, I decided a year ago to start reviewing the many films I watch. Bit by bit, writing these short reviews, became my main creative project for 2021.
The combination of being retired, and alone, plus Corona, enabled me to happily watch an average of nearly 3 films per day, and reverted me to the old days 40 years ago, when I studied Film at the University of Copenhagen under Peter Schepelern, and learned about semiotics, history & film theories.
I enjoyed this year tremendously, and intend to continue spending (โwastingโ) my time exploring old and new films alike.
Below are some statistics and a short list of a few curious finds.
I called my project โ1,000 filmsโ but ended up seeing a total of 'only' 885. Out of these, 122 were documentaries, 41 Shorts and 10 were stand-ups.
I thought of myself as an an all-round cineast, versed in world cinema, interested to discover rare gems old and new. But sadly, after looking at my end-year summery, I realized that this was not the case and I am far from a completist: Only 302 were โforeign filmsโ and at least 198 (22%, and usually of my best-rated films) were films I had seen before, sometimes more than 2-3 times.
Of the โforeignโ films, 64 were French, 43 were from the UK, 40 from Denmark, 19 each were Japanese and Italian, 13 from Germany, 10 from Sweden, 9 each from Poland & Israel, 6 each from Iran, Mexico and Norway. Others were from Argentina, Armenia, Austria, Brazil, Catalonia, Chile, Holland, Hong Kong, Hungary, Iceland, India, Korea, Lebanon, Mongolia, Romania, Spain, Turkey, Uganda, USSR and Venezuela.
Initially I was hoping to take a sizable bite out of the many films I hadn't seen before. But the field is much too vast: There are too many masterpieces in Russian, Thai, Arabic, Flemish, Mandarin, Portuguese, Swiss and what-not that I may never be able to see.
In the process, I also fell prey to โNEWSโ, the 'Never-Ending Watchlist Syndrome', and ended up with a saved list of over 400 more selections waiting to be consumed.
The year was, to my surprise, also heavily populated by newer films, with 98 from 2021, 73 from 2020, a total of 406 from the last 10 years, and only 61 from before 1960. So, not much of Film-History flair either.
Of the individual directors, I was mostly taken by Anders Thomas Jensen (10 films), Agnรจs Varda (6), Cรฉline Sciamma (4), A
... keep reading on reddit โกDirectors often have preferences and cast into their films an actor more than once.
From the top of my head can remember a few examples:
-
John Carpenter with Kurt Russel;
-
Richard Linklater and Ethan Hawke;
-
Hitchcock with James Stewart;
-
Woody Allen and Diane Keaton.
-
Scorsese with both De Niro and Di Caprio (maybe he's drawn to that two letter middle name sound ahah)
Please give me more examples of this. Personally think that this dinamic and usual duos have potential to make good films great.
Really love James Stewart in Hitchcock's movies. They made a wonderful flawless team.
Hope this question is interesting or adds some value to you guys in same way and thanks in advance for all you comments and contribuitions!

For context I'm a Refuse Driver (Garbage man) & today I was on food waste. After I'd tipped I was checking the wagon for any defects when I spotted a lone pea balanced on the lifts.
I said "hey look, an escaPEA"
No one near me but it didn't half make me laugh for a good hour or so!
Edit: I can't believe how much this has blown up. Thank you everyone I've had a blast reading through the replies ๐
It really does, I swear!
Theyโre on standbi
I've noticed this is a thing, every year, that a handful of the biggest award contenders, the ones all the pundits and insiders say is the thing to beat, is a game changer, etc. often get minimal ad campaigns, basically do not get released the year they're qualifying for and actually get a general release in mid to late January and are known about but barely seen for months if not a year in advance.
Is this just the scarcity principle coupled with a hype machine that relies on lack of access despite the high profile?
Is there a reason movies of this nature are held back until the last possible second or beyond that and don't get particularly expansive distribution or seemingly get released at the last possible second in the sense of something counting for that year?
I realize a lot of awards bait films or award contenders that get released too early lose their momentum as the year drags on (such as the Last Duel) and that's why so many awards contenders get released in late November and through the end of December (so Christmas, basically), but a lot of that stuff does ultimately get a fairly wide, general access release and there's still stuff that feels too... precious?
When I think about this concept, I am convinced that one day someone will make the greatest film of all time. It'll star everybody, it'll be written by like, a team of Tarantino and Tony Kushner and so on, etc. and nobody will ever see it except for anonymous sources that talk about how amazing it is and that'll be it. Just something nobody gets to see but whoever somehow is deemed worthy is sworn to secrecy and only general reactions, which are universal above and beyond praise- but nobody ever gets to see it and everybody buys into that without having an actual product.
At the end of the day, it's all just entertainment with some degree of art to it, so... is it just to avoid the crowded market? Is it to maximize the hype up until the last possible second? Is it that they know the awards crowds will love it but general audiences might not care so its sales/rentals/box office might not match up to the hype when compared to the tastes of general audiences?
Pilot on me!!

The director, who died at 82 on Thursday, was a master craftsman who used his wealth of film knowledge to create singular hybrids of the old and new
โComedy has to be built carefully,โ Peter Bogdanovich told Vultureโs Bilge Ebiri in 2018. At his best, the New Yorkโborn filmmaker was a master craftsman, drawing on his love and knowledge of classic Hollywood style and conventions to create hybrids of the old and new. In a rollicking road movie like Paper Moon, about an experienced con man who takes a preteen apprentice on a cross-country odyssey, every moment feels familiar yet bereft of clichรฉ; Bogdanovich didnโt just know how the comic mechanisms worked, but also how to keep them purring just below the surface. While rarely lumped in with the generation that reinvented Hollywood in the 1970s, Bogdanovichโs love of old genresโespecially screwball comedies and musicalsโyielded the same sort of postmodern pleasures as Francis Ford Coppolaโs updating of gangster picture myths in The Godfather. (To wit: If Bogdanovich is to be believed, he was offered the adaptation of Mario Puzoโs novel first.)
Bogdanovich was a raconteur and a gossipโin addition to the sterling books of film criticism he published during his 20s, he wrote and directed numerous behind-the-scenes books, articles, and documentaries, appearing in most as a vivid, polarizing character in his own right. Always good for a quote and gifted at intertwining narcissism with self-deprecation, he dined out on his โ70s successes while also owning the commercial failures (Saint Jack, They All Laughed) that led to his declaring bankruptcy by the mid-โ80s. In time, there would be comebacks for this compelling fallen figureโretrospectives and late triumphs, including a killer recurring guest role on The Sopranos and the release of his friend and hero Orson Wellesโs long-unfinished The Other Side of the Wind, a movie in which Bogdanovich brilliantly played a version of himself. He leaves behind not only several classics but a wide, varied, and almost uniformly idiosyncratic body of workโmovies, performances, essays, books, and one-liners. Hereโs our attempt at a Peter Bogdanovich syllabus.
The Wild Angels (1966)
As a young film critic, Bogdanovich hooked up with B-movie maestro Roger Corman, whose mercenary showmanship belied a similar appreciation for auteurism and aesthetics. (Among other things,

My two-cent takeaway: Lots of pushback on this list, but if you want to improve your craft, pick your favourite and focus on why you feel itโs written so well. Sopranos, The Wire and Deadwood, would be at the top for me (from what Iโve seen) including Curb Your Enthusiasm, Boardwalk and Oz.

โQuentin Tarantinoโs Attorney Responds to โPulp Fictionโ NFT Lawsuit: โMiramax Is Wrongโ
https://variety.com/2021/film/news/miramax-tarantino-pulp-fiction-nft-1235113383/
My two-cent takeaway: NFTs are confusing enough as it is, but Iโm confused as to how Tarantinoโs contract โis clearโ and he has the right to sell NFTs. Either some interpretation of legalese is at work or itโs a new contract, in which case wouldnโt Miramax have been clear that he couldnโt sell NFTs? Even though Tarantino has publishing rights to Pulp Fiction, Miramax owns the copyright and sees NFTs as a different beast, but since Tarantino is selling hand-written pages from his script, perhaps his position is that itโs an original piece of work.
