I seriously hope that Hollywood media just fails for a while so companies will finally realise how important their actors and writers are. I hope they come to see that ai can’t be used for everything. Also I find it funny how these companies think that we’re not going to support the strikers just because we won’t get some new Hollywood media for a while. I think they forgot that Hollywood isn’t the only place in the world creating amazing tv shows and movies. We have k-dramas, Thai-drama, anime, Tollywood and Bollywood movies. This isn’t the end of entertainment for us. If we don’t want to watch foreign media we still have old shows and movies that are great. I mean I can finally start watching those old Hollywood movies I’ve been planning to watch. So sure threaten us with the lack of media…we still having everything we need. The only person who’s in trouble because of the strikes is the goddamn companies. So screw you and have fun not making any money.

ITALIAN NEOREALIST CINEMA MEETS THE FERVENT SOCIO-POLICIAL CLIMATE OF '50s NORTH AFRICA.
FILM: "The Battle of Algiers" (1966)
CINEMATOGRAPHY: Marcello Gatti
DIRECTOR: Gillo Pontecorvo
SCREENPLAY: Franco Solinas
GILLO PONTECORVO: "The writings of Frantz Fanon were also very important for Franco Solinas, the screenwriter, and myself. We were there for a few months before the liberation and we saw everything, the hope and the joy, and we remember young people talking on the street all night. During the long months of preparation and of talking with the people, we saw that the struggle against colonialism diminished the mental state and the customs of the people. To fight colonialism they had to change themselves from what colonialism had made them."

El Fantasma de la Opereta (1955) is now available subbed from the Phantom Retrospective channel.
Please note that this isn't a Phantom Retrospective original translation. Not to be confused with the 1960 Mexican film of the same name starring Tin-Tan.

Scooping that shit out like a popcorn bucket
*for real though, Where Evil Lurks was a very good film, and I’m super biased against possession films. This one was interesting seeing the differences in culture of possession. The gore was 👌 top notch if that’s your thing. The whole film is subtitled, and absolutely worth the watch.

Lagaan might just be one of my favorite films. I am so glad I was able to get ahold of it. Certainly, it is the best sports film ever made. The soundtrack bangs, and the antagonists are absolutely hateable. It was so fun and thrilling.
I bet this would have been a hit in the U.S. if mainstream audiences even bothered with foreign films.

hating the British empire and wanting to kick their ass at cricket
This is your call to action. Set aside four hours and go watch Lagaan.

The WP map shows my hits have come from  19 countries around the world! Kenya and China still in the top ten is amazing. I’ve gotten several new followers as well but I’ll doing a reduction for the new year to delete ones that aren’t ‘real.’ I’m not interesting in numbers of editing services or sites that can increase my following etc.  Most popular post was one of my Friday Flashbacks.

I love watching old foreign films with my family now because sometimes I get some out of pocket commentary
We watched High and Low together and when Tatsuya Nakadai came on screen for the first time my sleepy mom was like: oh! he looks different.
Me: ?
Mom, quietly: he's handsome.
Me: ?!

theres a movie about a musician who like thinks hes either john lennon or john lennons son or something hes a light skinned east asian dude hot and looks like if john lennon were just a whole different guy that didnt abuse asian women for decades and then his kids anyway can anyone think of its name? i think the actor was kinda famous at the time in the country it was from and it was maybe in the 90s-early 2000s?

DOUBLE LOVER (2017) Grade: C-
Little cheesy the more the plot developed. More of an old school Hallmark type thriller but with a more serious tone. The ending was kind of silly.
