Wrap Shot - The Life and Death of the movie trailer
Can anyone confirm Des Mangan showed a violent movie in the early 2000's (made in the 90's probably) about a fight to the death tournament style movie? The main fighter had razor blades in his hair. This movie exists but NOBODY can seem to find it. The search for this movie has been going on for years.
I also had recurring nightmares about him. In mine, I was in a glass room, and he was pacing around outside watching me. It was dark but I could see him there. Then I couldn’t see him anymore, and when I turn over, he is right next to my bed.
Blows my mind what some people are happy to have themselves filmed doing. Esp local government councillors. The collective intelligence is abysmally low, whilst the hubris is through the roof
0:36 I also have heard it called "Soccer Before Sex" (and vice versa). Loved Des! Saw many great cult movies introduced by him on Monday and Saturday nights.
I am dismayed that with all this talk about Des, there was no mention of the greatest movie of all time, written and voice acted by the man himself, "Hercules Returns". Do yourself a favour. I checked and it's on Brollie.
Oh don't worry - follow up video coming!
@@samjrankin Huzzah!
One of my favorite recent slow cinema discoveries is Landscape in the Mist, from 1988 by Theo Angelopoulos. Stylistically, it’s reminiscent of Dreyer and Tarkovsky, but it is a wholly unique and beautiful cinematic statement, using extremely elaborate long takes to guide us through each scene and emotional beat with total precision.
The American tv machine has writers on set a lot and we're definitely seeing it more & more here. Hi Sam, great video!
That’s awesome to hear! It sounds like this is becoming the norm, especially for TV
His swan song When the Devil Knows you are Death is awesome and a bit underrated ❤
This video is incredible and so inspirational! I really want to dive into low and slow cinema now.
BELA TAAR'S MOVIES,. i.e, SATANTANGO, TURIN HORSE , MAN FROM LONDON etc.
Great stuff Sam, looking forward to seeing your work as a filmmaker more!
Thanks champion!
I don't know if you can consider this what you call "Low and slow" but i love "The naked island" from Kanedo Shindo, but the cuts aren't as completely still as some examples on the video (because yeah its not really clear) so to name one iwould say "GoodBye dragon Inn". Good subject overall, thanks
Elisha Cook Jr in anything.
I watched The Killing with him quite recently, he was incredible!
Anyone from Todd Solondz' movies
Oh hell yeah, Happiness is riddled with em!
❤
I knew i recognised a fellow aussie, good shit man. Subbed.
G'day cobber, thanks!
I’m Writer/Director, in my early stages as a filmmaker, watching your videos, reminds me of my passion for film. Thanks man <3
Thanks dude!
I love arthouse movies. ❤
I feel like Bela Tarr also deserves a shout out. His films are oppressively bleak, and the slow nature of them really hammers that feeling in.
Yeah absoutley. I think a part 2 will centre a lot more from pioneer filmmakers like Tarr.
I wonder if you might like Kelly Reichardt’s movies. A lot of her films are considered slow cinema. I haven’t seen anything else than this, but Certain Women (2016) was a fantastic movie and a great example of slow cinema.
I've only just gotten to know Kelly Richard's work - I watched First Cow recently and loved it, it was so tender and funny. Definitely will check out Certain Women next.
My favourite "low and slow" film would have to be Tarkovsky's Stalker. There's just something so special and meditative about it.
Love this film. I'm going to have to do a part 2 and talk about it I reckon!
yeah, my mind didn’t go to Stalker when i watched this youtube vid (review?) but Tarkovsky broke the mould with that film. i’ve seen people watch that film for the first time and be impacted majorly, as i’ve seen people watch it for the fourth or more time (this screening in the beautiful main ACMI cinema, Melbourne) and have to walk off without speaking to the people they arrived with, they were so impacted by it. the first time i watched Stalker on strong recommendation from a director i was working for on MTVs it was a VHS tape playing on a little 12” camera split monitor (an old CRT back in the 90s) and i was sick with a cold and wrapped in a blanket. . my friend who graduated from Swinburne film school (melbourne) was also watching Stalker for the first time. when there’s that cut that swaps from one film stock to another stocker we just looked at each other in amazement, silent and in awe. to me one of the top ten films of all time and that’s gotta be one of the top ten edit cuts in a feature film of all time. thanks for reminding me to find my Tarkovsky DVD box set in storage boxes. i need to watch him again. what interests me so much is how people will say unequivocally after seeing it, Stalker is about [big theme] and yet it’s always a different idea for each person. the stuff of dreams.
Great video!
Thanks so much!
What is slow cinema??
Lav Diaz is one of my favourites, and I can highly recommend Norte The End Of History. Novel-like, inspired by Dostoevsky, but especially how he lets life happen on screen in the most uncomfortable situations.
Great video!
Life is too short for this kind of garbage.
Molière - Arianne Mnouchkine(?) 1970s (5h)
Makes me think of the film Patterson. there is a secret here, in the almost quiet. The wind moving leaves.
Ironically you talked a lot this video
The Assassin 2015 👌🏻
aftersun, i thought it was so boring and then the last scene happened and i couldnt stop sobbing
Holy moly I love when a movie does that. It sounds like it was working it's way into your heart and you dind't even know it until the last scene.
@@samjrankin absolutely. it snuck its way in!
the film Fittcarraldo (1982) by the great German director Werner Herzog does this excellently. The film moves with the same slow momentum of actual life, as we follow an incongruous steam ship and passengers down the amazon river, on a quest to spread opera to the deepest parts of peruvian rainforest. as an onlooker, you feel apart of the motion, you feel as though you have entered the surreal universe of the film itself, as though you are one of the crew-members. it alters your perception of time, allowing nights to pass seamlessly into day, as though you have rested. I love it and would recommend to those who like to move along the narrative in real-time. So much attention to detail is paid; the film really sticks with you.
fav low and slow-enternal sunshine of the spotless mind ❤️🩹
I love how Noah Baumbach tells stories. My favorit slow movie of his is the Meyerowitz Stories. It is not as dramatic as say, Marriage Story which is a great movie in its own right. But Meyerowitz is something else. I play it often when I need to be in my room and do chores.
Love the video. What one piece of media would you personally reccomend for someone trying to develop their understanding of film? could be book, documentaries anything. I know all the big seminal ones, subjectively what's your favorite one?
Thanks so much! Would this be from an appreciation/crituqe perspective, or like a behind-the-scenes how to be a filmmaker approach?
@@samjrankin Just personal appreciation. When i ask for reccomendations people generally just give the same 10 books all the time so i like to ask for personal favorites instead :)
Bela Tarr
Are you sure you have seen these films? It could just be a mistake, but you mentioned Chantal Akerman;s first feature Jeanne Dielman etc, when Je Tu Il Elle is 1 hour and 26 minutes long, and came out the year before. Interesting video other than that.
Yeah that's my mistake! I hand't seen it and in my research believed it was a short film, not a feature length film. Thanks for the catch!
@@samjrankin I figured that was the case. I haven't seen it either, but I looked it up at imdb. Anyway, thanks for letting me know about a bunch of films I have never heard of.
Thanks for sharing the slow films, that can sometimes push you emotionally! We did one in the mood of Rope…it’s call The Last Passport. We have been blown away by how folks love the different pace. Thanks again.
Ackerman was also high on the fumes of her own pussy, so... yea do with that what you want...
anti micheal-bay films is fairly accurate although, micheal bay does not deserve to be mentioned that much without mentioning that he does not deserve to be mentioned that much. and that is too much effort after all. so slow movie it is.
My favorite slow cinema director is named Bi Gan. His two films Kaili Blues and Long Day's journey into night are two masterpieces (in my opinion)
My favorite slow movie is Oslo, August 31st. I think it's brilliant and deeply empathetic
Looks very interesting, will check it out!
Good video, even though I completely disagree with just about everything in it. This type of cinema is the preserve of those who don't have the talent to make something compelling and then call it avant garde to hide that failure.
Definitley a lot of people feel the same way, thanks for getting involved!
1) nobody calls slow cinema avant garde. It has existed long before you did. 2) Define compelling. You are arbitrarily defining the whole principle as not compelling, and then retro-engineering insinuations about the thought process of people making such things to justify your own perspective when you haven't even bothered developing one. It's just arrogance poorly disguised as criticism.
Sharunas Bartas (Few of Us), Mother and son, by Aleksandr Sokurov
Great video! Missing: Pedro Costa’s films🇵🇹 An elephant sitting still😢 Tarkovsky
Thanks so much! Yeah so many more to check out, which Tarkovsky is your favoutite?
i love watching early works of Bong Joon-Ho like Mother and Memories of Murder !
Mother is one of my favourite films ever!
Great video!
Thanks mate!
i love your channel! i recommend bleak night by yung soon-hyun, 2010. i read somewhere that it was his directorial debut. ITS AWESOME. it's slow paced and builds up till the end. its about three bestfriends, who have an imperfect friendship. one of them commits suicide and his grieving father tries to reach out and find out why he died. the colours, the aesthetic, the plot everything about it is indeed bleak, but also amazing. its so well done, i can't love it enough. my all time favourite. please do a video on it 🙆‼️
Thanks so much! I've added it to my watch list. I reckon I'll need to to a part 2!! Have a great day.
maybe jim jarmusch's only lovers left alive
Yeah I loved that film, reckon it's time for a rewatch!
Great insightful breakdown my brother.
Thanks so much, have a great day!
