This is the thread where we discuss matters pertaining to the detrius that accompanies the "End of the Year in Cinema" -- 2021

Zeros and Ones is a combo of director/leading actor who both annoy me badly, but somehow I feel like watching it.

I me mine:

Zola
Bergman Island
Shiva Baby
Malmkrog
About Endlessness
Summer of '85
Isaac

Tilda Swinton is no Jenjira Pongpas and Memoria isn't quite top tier Joe but it was still fantastic and right up there among my favourites of the year, along with Gunda, Ham on Rye, Malignant, Gaia and Another Round.

I watch it tomorrow.

I'd love to catch it again sometime

1. Titane
2. Annette
3. The card counter
4. Dune
5. Pig
6. The green knight
7. The last duel
8. Judas and the black messiah

dune
pig
evangelion 3+1

mandibules
the power of the dog
the last duel
no time to die
titane
the card counter
the suicide squad
spree

i really disliked shiva baby

i really disliked Titane

Favorite development of the year, even before having seen Drive My Car and Wheel of Fortune and Fantasy, is Ryûsuke Hamaguchi's unambiguous crowning as the new auteur superstar of the world.

i really disliked Titane

With his own Criterion package too.

I'm watching Wheel of Fortune and Fantasy.

― ignore the blue line (or something)

I can't fully embrace it because I simply don't care for that level of violence, but I found the rest an impressive tonal triumph. I was moved.

I found the other firefighters in the background a triumph of hot window dressing.

speaking of hot firefighters, I should watch Pig?

I keep thinking maybe I should re-watch Titane when I'm in a better mood but then again maybe not!

Cahiers appear to be first out of the gate this year, at least among the instutitons:

— Cahiers du Cinéma (@cahierscinema) November 29, 2021

Love how loyal to Dumont Cahiers always are

Also quite responsive to flattery vis-a-vis the W. Anderson?

I guess the rest of the world got First Cow earlier this year?

The best movie two years in a row! Not bad.

boy i did not watch a lot of movies this year. i think these are my faves as of the end of November:

Beyond the Infinite Two Minutes (2020)
Jacinta (2021)
Joy Ride (2021)
Titane (2021)
The Truffle Hunters (2021)
Shiva Baby (2020)
Flora and Ulysses (2021)
Gunda (2020)
The Assistant (2020)
On-Gaku Our Sound (2019)
Good Timing with Jo Firestone (2021)

Good Timing with Jo Firestone (2021)

What's this? I like her.

it's fucking great: she did a zoom class teaching senior citizens stand up comedy during the pandemic and this is their last rehearsals in person before a one-time matinee performance. available for free on Peacock if you're willing to download the app and for this you should be. firestone is a real treasure.

Cool! I'll look into it if its available in Canada.

Tequila Minsky!

oh man i forgot about eva 3.0+1.0, that’s on my list

i also need to see annette

no one has sufficiently explained to me why they hate titane

Well world, looks like Mike Lane’s tapping back in. @hbomax pic.twitter.com/V9Ce62n710

— Channing Tatum (@channingtatum) November 29, 2021

looks like the best movie of 2023 is sewn up

I thought I hated Annette but it keeps growing on me.

i also just watched another round on the plane and that is a v v enjoyable film

lol i guess it’s thoroughly from last year oh well

I'll be honest and say I can't really put my finger on what about Titane that got on my bad side.

why don't you take a drive

i like titane a lot, if only for it's inexplicablity and immense self-assurance but for more than that tbh.

Annette has cooled on me since watching it; I guess I like it? I wouldn't want to see it again.

I consider every movie made between November 2019 and January 2022 to have been made this year. COVID is a time machine.

Oh, and Passing wasn't a revelation or anything, but yes, I fall on the "better than expected" side here, especially when it delves into the commonalities of living blackness and living queerness.

The general suckiness of the Sparks songs keeps me from loving Annette -- and its running time.

I started to think better of Passing once I considered that the non-Ruth Negga scenes were purposefully boring in that way that, say, a Merchant/Ivory film is "boring."

The songs in Annette are terrible, yes (I have no real relationship with Sparks), but aren't they mimicking the expository function of opera? I say this knowing very little about opera, of course, so I could be way off.

but even so those opera bits aren't supposed to dull

I started to think better of Passing once I considered that the non-Ruth Negga scenes were purposefully boring in that way that, say, a Merchant/Ivory film is "boring."

― Les hommes de bonbons (cryptosicko),

reminds me of PBS.

alfred have you seen another round or is there an ilx thread where you’ve already discussed it lol

forks otm

alfred have you seen another round or is there an ilx thread where you’ve already discussed it lol

― STOCK FIST-PUMPER BRAD (BradNelson)

I have! I'm still unsure if it's a study of toxic masculinity or an indulgence of it

idk what came out in the non-year 2021 but from the film festival we had here last week I loved Memoria, Titane & hit the road

I have! I'm still unsure if it's a study of toxic masculinity or an indulgence of it

― So who you gonna call? The martini police (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Monday, November 29, 2021 11:53 AM (one minute ago) bookmarkflaglink

uhhh my guess is it’s neither!

It’s an advert for sazerac

this is true

another round is a great film imo and, quite intentionally and unexpectedly for all concerned in the aftermath of the director's daughter's death, a painful meditation on irrevocable loss and how to get through

Anders Danielsen Lie is the Hottest Man in the World.

Best Director: Ryusuke Hamaguchi, DRIVE MY CAR and WHEEL OF FORTUNE AND FANTASY (46 points)

Runners-up:
Jane Campion, THE POWER OF THE DOG (36 points)
Céline Sciamma, PETITE MAMAN (28 points)

— National Society of Film Critics (@NatSocFilmCrix) January 8, 2022

Anders Danielsen Lie is the Hottest Man in the World.

Up there. Just discovered Jonathan Bailey, who cuts a similar silouette, in the last week.

Anders Danielson Lie was very appealing in Reprise and Olso, August 31st, am looking forward to seeing Bergman Island and The Worst Person In the World

I never know how they make these determinations, but how is Ruth Negga a supporting actress in Passing? Wasn't she in almost every scene? Maybe I'm not remembering right.

she and Tessa Thompson were both great in that film, but hers did feel like the supporting role

I should have checked before posting--I have their names backwards.

Yeah, remind me to stay far away from Better Than (or whatever that was)

Knowing a "not his kind of movie" swept the critics awards, I had to see what the gargoyle JW was saying in NSFC's wake. Was not disappointed.

Drive My Car is a morose, slow-paced film about coping with grief and long-festering guilt (i.e., the trials and tribulations of grief monkeys). It’s strictly an art-house sauna movie for elite, ivory-tower critics — a respectable effort by any measure, but a movie that resides in its own cave and doesn’t begin to even try to capture or engage with or reflect anything about mainstream life in the years 2020 or ’21. It could have been made in 1957 or ’63 or ’86 or ’92.

NextBestPicture‘s Matt Neglia recently had the temerity to suggest that Drive My Car, having won Best Picture trophies from NSFC, LAFCA and the NYFCC, is cut from the same cloth as Goodfellas, Schindler’s List, L.A. Confidential, The Hurt Locker, The Social Network and Spotlight. Neglia is one of those film nerd types who lives on his own planet, or, if you will, inside his own rectum. There’s no reasoning with guys like this.

Even better, with shades of Hedda and Louella:

https://www.showbiz411.com/2022/01/08/three-hour-japanese-drive-my-car-wins-national-society-of-film-critics-group-seeks-to-make-awards-even-more-irrelevant

I wish I knew what the point was of all this: the National Film Society of Critics voted Best Picture to “Drive My Car,” an almost three hour Japanese film that most people know nothing about. It’s a very good film, and a long one, but it was already named Best Picture by the New York and Los Angeles film critics groups. So what’s the point?

Frankly, this was a big “f-you” to American and British filmmakers and films made in English. It was the same to the larger film going audience. The NSFC could have shaped the conversation about a group of films headed to the Oscars and struggling at the box office. But the message is “We’re so cool we don’t have to like anything you’re being offered.” So why should anyone bother going to theaters if the critics say forget it?

I’m not talking about giving awards to blockbusters like “Spider Man” or “No Time to Die.” With good movies from Spielberg, Branagh, Campion, PTA, Joel Coen, Villeneuve, Miranda, Sorkin, not mention “CODA,” and so on, it’s kind of insulting to thumb your nose at your own business. (I’m not supposed to say this, but the film critics still don’t get if they don’t support the movie business, they will be out of jobs.)

I know there’s a Film Twitter feeling that “Drive My Car” will be “Parasite,” win Best Picture and really up-end the film business. If that’s how the Oscars seem like they’re going, no one will watch the broadcast on March 27th. This is what’s happened to the Emmy Awards: the statues go to shows with small audiences, minuscule, no one watches the Emmys as a result. If the point is to make all this irrelevant, we’re headed in that direction very fast.

Neglia is one of those film nerd types who lives on his own planet, or, if you will, inside his own rectum. There’s no reasoning with guys like this.

People who live in glass rectums shouldn't throw farts.

I thought the point was that the critics' group liked the movie.

Little of column A, little of column B ...

DRIVE MY CAR isn't my choice for movie of the year, but it's the perfect choice for movie of the year that will flummox people who think the role of critics awards is to shape the Oscars race.

— A.A. Dowd (@AADowd) January 9, 2022

Theory about why Drive My Car gets critics'-group awards, look at critics' year-end lists, imagine the Venn diagram: it brings together various artistic tendencies that other films isolate. Not a consensus film by design but by accident.

— Richard Brody (@tnyfrontrow) January 9, 2022

I know we're all ignoring the Golden Globes this year and, with mercy, from here on out.

BUT ... I also celebrate every time Belfast doesn't win.

The winners are unexpectedly...fine? I liked the Lucy film more than I expected, maybe Sorkin's best script? And Kidman did evoke the rather sour late middle-aged grand dame on '70s talk shows.

This may surprise you: I finished Tick on Saturday and, after surviving the first eight minutes, thought Garfield fine.

I don't blame Garfield. TTB is the worst of Jonathan Larsen + the worst of Lin-Manuel put together in a perfect shitstorm. Garfield is proper playing an annoying artiste.

BAFTA longlists ... the big scandal being that they completely ignored The Souvenir Part II. Oh, and pretty much any performances not in the English language.

— Erik Anderson (@awards_watch) January 27, 2022

the presence of Belfast is really the only bleh thing xpost

CODA too.

I dislike BELFAST, TICK TICK BOOM and KING RICHARD more than CODA, but I at least understand the appeal the other three have over the cliche nothingness that is CODA.

CODA was a conventional coming of age movie and was very clichéd, yes, but watching it felt like a relief from all of the dysphoria of 2021, and the story got to me in the end

Marlee Matlin, Daniel Durant and Emilia Jones and Troy Kotsur were all pretty great and the family seemed real

I saw it in August and wondered why the hell Matlin wasn't cast in other movies besides one in which she plays a Deaf mom. I would've loved her as Lucille Ball

from what I've read Matlin made an effort to assemble the actors she wanted to work with in that film

I've never watched a film about a deaf family before

2021's Oscar Nominees

Some fun lists:
