……my two fave films’. Both wonderful in every way. The acting by both lead actors’ was superb.

Good analysis of film topic, n theme, the plot, acting skills, dialogue, sound effect.

The only thing I griped with is Chani… She’s space Arabian wife, where be the civilizational difference :/ The relationship between Paul and Chani was among the only wholesome things in the books, which made her death and the destruction of that relationship all the more devastating. The film scrambled them early on which I don’t really appreciate. You guys have great chemistry, wish you success

Something that suggested later on, Emerald Fennel does it very subtle. Someone wears someone’s bathrobe and then their aftershave.

Melville really did not care about character development. At all. Delon said when he first went in For a reading of the script with Melville to see if he would be interested in the role, after a good 20 minutes he stopped and said to the director: We’re on the 15th page and there still hasn’t been any dialogue. To which Melville replied, That’s right, there’s very little dialogue in this film. And right then Delon agreed to do it bc he was so intrigued. Delon was the perfect vehicle for Melville’s technique bc he is riveting in the way he moves - panther like and stealthy … yet disturbingly elegant. Even when he does the most mundane things, such as laying on a bed contemplating the ceiling, it feels riveting somehow. One essayist described Delon’s mere presence as “static violence.” His beauty has often been described as “cruel” yet “vulnerable.” But most would agree he was much more than a pretty face and earned respect from critics for his genuine acting ability. Were he British, he would have made an excellent James Bond after Sean Connery retired the role. See: ANY NUMBER CAN WIN (Melodie en Sous Sol).

Saw the Elvis movie 5 times in the theater. It was perfect. I took friends that knew little about Elvis and they were enthralled with the movie. People cried in the theater at the last scene. The real colonel was only about wheeling and dealing. First hand accounts with the colonel relay some bizarre behaviors. I thought Hanks was good though the accent was over done. Austin Butler will be nominated for best actor. Hopefully, best costumes.

Pitiful! Best of luck!

You can also get 50% off all Criterion titles at Barnes & Noble during the entire months of July and November each year. I always go and limit myself to only buying one (most recently Inside Llewyn Davis, and I haven't decided what I'll get in November), but then I always end up ordering three titles during the website's 24 hour flash sales to avoid shipping fees (my recent order was Breaker Morant, The Graduate, and The Silence of the Lambs). I almost cried when I saw the movie Australia in the theater because I didn't think it was ever going to end after it felt like it was just about to at three different points in the film. Elvis was a little bit better, but I think Luhrmann's best work may be behind him as everything since Moulin Rouge only has gilmpses of the brilliance which filled that masterpiece. I'll be in Baltimore this weekend, and I'm hoping to catch Decision To Leave at the one theater showing it while I'm there. I'm also hoping to get to TÁR, Triangle of Sadness, and The Banshees of Inisherin for one of the best weeks of AMC A-List ever. Looking forward to hearing what you guys think of those.

My ranking of Alex Garland: 1. Ex Machina 2. Annihilation 3. Men 1 and 2 are a lot closer than 2 and 3. Men is one of those movies that I find I've enjoyed talking about more than watching. There's a lot to be admired but also a lot to be desired. I did enjoy it more than Crimes of the Future though.

I was wondering if you guys were going to wait and do a Mulltiverse combo episode with the new Dr. Strange which at this point could just be called Something Somewhere One After the Other. This is the first 2022 release I have watched more than once, and I was so happy I was able to get an IMAX viewing in before Doctor Strange took over the multiplexes. Before seeing this movie when I did my first Oscar guesses for 2023 nominations in the major 8 categories, I only had Michelle Yeoh in the mix for lead actress, but I think we can also expect nominations for Ke Huy Quan for supporting actor, Daniels for original screenplay, and even a best picture nom like Paul mentions. With some potential technical categories like editing and visual effects it could even be one of the top nominated films. I'm hoping they at least shortlist Son Lox for the score and the song This Is A Life that they co-wrote and performed with Mitski and David Byrne, which plays over the credits. I know Josh had mentioned he had also watched this one twice. Any other 2022 releases either of you have watched more than once already?

Love this disccusion!

I think I enjoyed listening to your conversation more than actually watching the movie. I have this movie ranked just outside of my top 20 for last year... though I wonder if I would have ranked it higher if I had the chance to see it before it started winning critic awards so that my only expectations were based on Campion's track record and her return to feature filmmaking after such a long hiatus. Now I want to make a parody trailer of The Piano as a romcom... that's hilarious.

Would be interested in hearing you guys thoughts on Red Rocket and The worst person in the world if y’all have seen them

Thank you!

Thank you!

Have you guys seen TITANE?

mana filmnya

Been listening to you guys for over a year, discovered you guys via the In the Mood for Love pod! Much love from Toronto, this was a great ep!

The life story interpretation at around 1:20:00 is really good

Hey you guys should watch a movie called Black Bear that came out last year, it has really went under the radar. Aubrey Plaza gives an amazing performance that is oscar worthy in my opinion . Don't expect you to review it on the channel since it's not brand new. But you should watch it just as a film fan. Also thanks for the great content lately and for uploading so frequently. You guys are great

The Coens are from Minnesota

Hey guys, will you be reviewing Sound of Metal? I just watched it, it's really good.

Great discussion guys

nice!

the taiwan cakeshop part is actually not because kim worked for geun-sae(basement dude). it's because a few years ago in Korea taiwan cakeshops were a popular thing and they were everywhere, but a TV program 'debunked' the cakeshops showing that most of the shops were unsanitary, using bad ingredients, etc. So a lot of taiwan cakeshops had to shut down and a lot of people became jobless

Will you guys be reviewing Day 5 Bloods or King of Staten Island?

Researching the film for a video angle. Interesting breakdown. I caught a few soundbites. I'll check out the entire show. Subbed👍🏼

Great video guys, thanks for the content.

Can you do Portrait of a lady on fire

Thank-you for excellent content. The most intelligent discussion on RUclips about this classic film. Cheers!

Parasite is a def movie classic for all time! I know I've just had an inexplicable movie experience, i read the movie end credits up to (c) 2019 CJ ENM CORPORATION, BARUNSON E&A ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.

🍉🍓🥭🍒🌽🍑🌶🍐🥨🥔🥭🍅🥑🌶🥔

I am so happy and energised by your passion! I share the exact kind of passion for this movie that you guys do. I listened to the whole thing with a smile on my face! As you said at the end, I hardly ever wanna watch another film, until it's time to watch Parasite again! Great podcast! Thank you!

An unbelievable ride! Love this!

"Drugs"?? I think you both got lost in the translation. When the wife said "give me drugs" while making out with her husband in the living room, she was ROLE PLAYING as they were also referring to the lost panties from earlier. Recall, they discussed the possibility of cocaine or meth being involved with the lost panties earlier in the movie. It also shows her naivete as a house wife in regards to the poor and drugs in general. What kind of drug user says, "give me drugs!"?? lol

Great reviews!

@1:33:30: You're exactly right; *in Asian societies, you say the last name first:* which is why you'll get names like "Mao Zedong", "Ho Chi Minh", "Kim Il Sung" or "Moon Jae-in", where *the first syllable is the family name* (or presumed, adopted family name). They do this everywhere across Asia-Pacific except the Philippines, where you'll find Spanish-style names.

I feel your great passion about the film !!!

Just FYI, the story is based on bong joon ho's own experience as a tutor when he was in college. His gf was a korean lit. tutor for the son of a really rich family and they needed another tutor to teach their son math too. So she suggested her bf (bong). And then once bong was hired, he was actually going to introduce another friend who was an art major but bong got fired after 2 months so that never transpired lol! He said it during a Q&A but I forget where (it's on RUclips, I'll link if I can find it again)

There is no “possibility” in the ending of the film. The last scene is Kim Ki-woo in the semi-basement dwelling writing the letter to his father-and it’s intended, at least, to be _very clear_ about what the reality is-Ki-woo will never be able to earn enough to buy that house. Bong Joon-ho very deliberately ended the film that way, calling it a 확인사살-which has the original meaning of shooting someone an additional time to make sure that person is dead (it literally means “a confirming shot to kill”). In other words, Bong wanted to eliminate the possibility for the audience that there was any chance that the son’s plan would come about. Bong said in an interview with _Vulture:_ “It’s quite cruel and sad, but I thought it was being real and honest with the audience. You know and I know - we all know that this kid isn’t going to be able to buy that house. I just felt that frankness was right for the film, even though it’s sad.” And the song at the end, sung by Woo-sik Choi. who plays Ki-Woo, and written by Bong Joon-ho, is about how Ki-Woo is trying to work and save his money. The song’s original title was _564 Years,_ the amount of time Bong calculated it would take Ki-Woo to earn enough money to buy the house.

Who else thought this was the full movie?

1. Many tea cake(?. In Korea it's called Taiwan styled castella) shop owners were ordinary people who struggled just to survive the day as many entrepreneurs in Korea also do nowadays. 2. One producer intentionally misinformed the viewers that the castella was made from cheesy oil so that he could get high numbers of view. 3. After that report was broadcasted, many shop owners went bankruptcy. 4. Both low family father and you-know-who lost fortunes from that incident. One became helpless leading-figure of his family, another one went down to basement to escape the Korean gangsters who'd sell his organs to get their money back. Song = song gang = not kaeng go(a)ng ho = as in simple 'ho'

The art is from an international poster. Thanks for all of the comments!! Can’t wait for this to come out on video to dissect it even more!

Who did the drawing in your still picture? What a perfect representation of the film!

This film has so many great payoffs without seeming obvious about it. It was just so organic, like how the CCTV didn’t capture the father sneaking back into the house via the garage because the former housekeeper cut the feed earlier. I can’t wait to rewatch it again

You forgpt how Bong hid a clue for he old maid husband. Mr. Park in one scene said how he will miss the old maid cooking AND how nice she is eventhough her portion when she eats is for 2 persons. 2 persons guys

I love your cover. It is kind of spooky and classic. Very nice. I have watched it three times, and you are right. I see new things every time. It was funny, heart beating and sad movie altogether. Oh, you know something else? In the US, it's not that difficult to find this kind of labor, but in Korea it seems that there are not any jobs period. The father says there will be 500 candidates who are college graduates to be interviewed for a security guard job. People are not stupid, uneducated, or even lazy. Further more, they are not ripping the family off by conning them or stealing from them. The drug isn't the big problem there but the drunken people could be like the one you saw in the movie. They all work hard to meet ends meet and that makes it much more desperate and sad. The whole different level of economy than the US. I really enjoyed your video.

so bongtail it is :>

Just finished it, great podcast! Really liked the format of this one at least, will hear some other episodes too. Really good discussion, I have a similar view as the Actor (?) regarding this movie :)

Ah, this is great. There aren't many podcasts about this movie and I watched it yesterday
