The only time I faced a full-scale riot in my film class happened while showing Playtime.
They calmed down when I explained it's a dud as a comedy but a solid example of visual and sound design, use of long shot, of showing how America looked like in a post-World's Fair climate, etc.

Some of it must be lost in translation, Playtime is hilarious.

Watching this pretty good early 60s sex farce I never saw or heard of before. Caste is a perfect time capsule of the moment.

Lead actress’s father’s first wife is on a little later. Think the two families were neighbors when she was growing up.

Although the ex-wife was married to William Wyler in between! #onethread

Some Help!-level spy stuff featuring Dom DeLuise, which is reasonably enjoyable.

Paul Lynde disguised in a long beard and glasses!

Started it last night too! I've been watching Kubrick all week for a Zoomcast with some friends. (Watch out for my dad's cousin, Nick Dennis, one of the slaves--short Greek guy.)

Nope. More like "lost in pacing."

(xpost) I called him a short Greek guy; Peter Ustinov says something like "He's small, but compact," then goes on to say he seems smaller than when in the gladiator ring. Ustinov's hilarious in Spartacus.

He and Olivier and Laughton are the best things about it.

Haven’t seen in forever. Don’t remember who is in the cast but I can velieve it.

A laughton is nothing to sneeze at.

when I think about the work involved in compiling these ballots, with no nomination list, I would not be surprised if it took quite a while
― A viking of frowns, (Camaraderie at Arms Length), Tuesday, 13 July 2021 22:03 (two years ago) link
Yeah exactly.

I think he's clearly giving those who have the Bergman box set a year to try get through it before voting.

dang, my ballot sucks too much to request a tiny mod, but i'd have to put Hunger in there somewhere. sheesh louise.

I'll send mine now lol.

It was kinda hard to tell whether a deadline actually happened so disregard my submission if it's easier.
― billstevejim, Thursday, 15 July 2021 16:02 (two years ago) link
Nah, it's still valid. Honestly, I keep getting sidetracked and, yes, this poll is so all-encompassing that filling in ballots is taking about 10x as long as it has in the past.

Yeah, figured there was a combinatorial explosion in the amount of work to be done in this, the Mother, or Bitch Mother, to steal a phrase from Will Shortz, of All Polls.
