Thanks for a GREAT answer Parry.
Well, surrealism or surrealistic.. I don't really care. To me its just a
keyword to finding movies I seem to enjoy. (Even though I would argue on
early Lynch not being surrealism.., but thats not important..)
May I add some questions?
1. Why is Jean Cocteau a joke? I haven't seen anything with him, but I heard
he's done some good movies? Could you elaborate?
2. Jacques Brunius.. all I could find on him(allmovie.com) was that he's an
movies by himself as well?
3. How do you connect the movie Salo with the directors I listed? I know of
its reputation, and in some ways I do want to see it, but isn't that just a
gruesome gruesome movie with meaningless graphic violence and torture thats
been banned everywhere for ages(and even killed the director eventually)?
How is he connected with surrealism? Or with Lynch? Fellini?
4. Dario Areganto I could ask the same.. In what way are they similar to the
movies I mentioned? Do you mention them because you like both, or is it
something else as well?
5. I am just as confused with Tex Avery and Fleichers?
6. And last but not least.. Top Gun???
But thanks, a lot of the movies seemed really interesting.
These titles especially:
The Tenant
Paris Does Not Exist
The Monk
The Imitation Of The Cinema
Fata Morgana
Celine & Julie Go Boating
Peter Ibbetson
Suspuria
Les Yeux sans visage
Never Give a Sucker an Even Break
Perhaps Salo
So, thanks a whole bunch :)
Andreas
