The aesthetic of the Image: [world] cinema clips

"Film is a disease. When it infects your bloodstream it takes over as the number one hormone. It bosses the enzymes, directs the pineal gland, plays Iago to your psyche. As with heroin, the antidote to Film is more Film." - Frank Capra
Over 7100 clips!
Mostly world cinema/International/arthouse/‘experimental’ or 'indie' clips + cool Hollywood stuff...
Not really about 'famous' clips - but instead scenes where a particular image is paramount - though of course sometimes the two concepts are one and the same.
'Aesthetic' does not imply beauty as such - rather I try to vaguely interrogate what makes a particular image or set of images arresting or memorable. They might of course be beautiful, they could even be 'ugly.' I like cinema.
Lots (1700+!) of interesting playlists - directors/theme etc
All clips now also organised into year of release playlists from 1878-2023* -- (1968 seems to be current Top with about 188 clips so far!)
Nearly every year (1878-2023) has its own playlist

Never get tired of watching this tracking shot
Where can I find these illustrations online?
Relatable
Yes, I know what you mean!
I don't think I'll ever be able to assert such a conviction! So many (great) films, so little time...
Goya and Schnappi are always watching.. UwU XD Nuzzles you
Interesting. Not exactly as I remembered… instead of it blowing away he uses his ‘gilded’ hand to pick up the telephone to accept the ‘shady’ offer… Gold being the symbol of the eternal and incorruptible… Here contrasted with heightened sense of finitude and the venality he consents to become involved with, as if anointing his action with the purity of another intent. I can’t help recalling at the same time the Happy Prince.
Ten živý je vlastně taky mrtvý. Ale šance tu je a to Ježíš Kristus!
White for Purity.
The late critic Gilbert Adair regarded this as one of the great films of the Seventies.
Thanks for telling me about Gilbert Adair - hadn't heard of him! (But of course knew some of the films based on his novels) Thanks!
Another significant film I've not yet seen, except for this tantalizing clip just now. There is an air of venerability in the delicate and contemplative regard for the gold leaf, that time-honored element of artistic production, linking the character to so many forgotten forebears.
I love this film - here is a playlist if you don't think that a bit vulgar - ruclips.net/p/PLUTcPWY0FN2ERkdCAZ35pgWOVwtvau35m
Great clip. Perfectly shot. We've all been thru this - those of us that have attended carnivals. Love Truffaut!!!
Art as film. Thnak you for uploading this classic scene.
This unfortunate coda reminds me of the psychiatrist scene at the end of 'Psycho', both instances being illustrative of a time when audiences were deemed too emotionally fragile to contemplate horror as something inexplicable. Cinematic audiences, that is, as the original play of 'The Bad Seed' ended with the mother's suicide and Rhoda surviving to go on to an indefinite tenure of murder and mayhem, shielded from suspicion by her extreme youth. Even with the ridiculous death by lightning that the filmmakers felt compelled to introduce to the screen adaptation, they still felt the need to coddle and reassure the audience that all was well with the world, real children innocent and never capable of evil.
Yes, humankind cannot bear too much reality as T.S. Eliot observed, and that sanctified white picket fence must be re-erected after any potentially calamitous event, whatever the cost! (step forward David Lynch!)

Movie name?
I love critic Jonathan Rosenbaum's description of this wartime epic (one of his personal favorites) as (and I paraphrase) "coming across like the greatest Flash Gordon serial ever made". Though my own feelings on this historical spectacular are more mixed, I think it likely that this is the greatest filmic achievement from the Soviet Union during that terrible decade of the Forties.
Always green, ever living.
Beautiful quote from the scene.
It's extraordinary how much incident and feeling can be packed into less than a minute of cinematic time. While the beautiful Delon is always easy to look at, that bandaged brow gives a welcome mundane touch to that too perfect face.
Yes, he got that bandage after winning a boxing match earlier. The cut and plaster makes him look a bit like a faux working class gay icon type - the kind of image that Morrissey would put on an album cover* if you know who he is (I am sure you do!) * Oh, wait - of course Morrissey already has featured a still from a Delon movie on The Queen is dead - ruclips.net/video/T51mPWAPst0/видео.html
@@AestheticOfTheImage Oh yes, I had my Smiths/Morrissey kick back in my angsty adolescent days in the Eighties. My first cousin, a bit younger and much more in tune with the musical zeitgeist, introduced them to me (I never did invest in any of their records, content to just listen to my cousin's tapes). And that's remarkable to learn just today that it is Delon featured on that album cover--all this time I had assumed it was James Dean.
The first footage I've seen of this silent classic, after decades of familiarity with published stills of the iconic procession over the ice, often reproduced in film histories. This was the evident inspiration for a similar scene in Eisenstein's 'Ivan the Terrible', where the citizens of Moscow snake in procession across a wintry landscape in appeal to the self-exiled Tsar to return to his capital.
Interesting link - I know the bit you mean in Ivan the Terrible. Good excuse to watch it again, and maybe even attempt part 2 which I don't think I have watched. Expect clips! By the way I already have six clips from part 1 shoudl you be in any way interested (or have the time!): ruclips.net/p/PLUTcPWY0FN2ExrAf_Lwe3KWhArkp40neq Thanks for your excellent exegesis as usual. I learn a lot from you!
Looks good to see you in the morning ❤you have a wonderful time
A classic scene. It was brilliant of the writer to add this scene to the movie as a cameo. The horse owner says "... an' 'e's a brarn 'owse an' 'e answers to the name of Dennis ... "
Best line ever!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
He reminds me of Woody Allen.
These modern suburbs of Rome look very much like my own city, Brasilia, the capital of Brazil at the same time, when the latter was almost uninhabited. Jean Paul Belmondo was here a little later, filming That Man from Rio (1964).
Incredible ! (Thank you for posting this)
Thanks! I have a Theo Angelopoulos Playlist here, in case you are interested: ruclips.net/p/PLUTcPWY0FN2GYQEHr1TnoYnKgRWlHvCrX
Clean potatos, it's charmaine...
Truly unsettling. I've not seen this film, apart from a few stray clips such as the one offered here, but have read praise for Bancroft's portrayal. This scene captures so vividly that sense gotten of a social situation going horribly wrong, and the party hoping to maintain propriety being unsure of what exactly to do in the face of such a breech of civility and (here) of sanity.
Yes - the sanctity of social mores; the terror of being exposed. Anne Bancroft is imprisoned both by the hairdryer hood above her - and the loony to her left. Nowhere to run. You should watch the film if you have time - a good copy on youtube.
Divine was a trooper although, oddly, this isn't the worst scene in the film (the chicken scene).
Yeah, that's pretty fucked up too
Bouleversant, bien sûr.
I've tried not to judge others, as I myself wish not to be judged for my indiscretions. However one needs to ask themselves this question: Is this the type of filth that you would watch with small children after a family meal for TV night? Do not counter with "porno", because porno, though rough, is a dark display of natural human inclination and desire. This thing on the screen had the audacity to call itself "Divine". Is the world a better place for such a display? Holy Moly, what has happened to us to consider this entertainment?
This is the best version of "A Star Is Born" that was ever made. The BEST.
I feel like I’m watching a Led Zeppelin music video
I love when he says "The difference between you and me? You're not allowed to smoke"
I immediately thought of l'Eclisse after hearing the news of Delon's passing. Great film. Thanks for uploading the clip, I'm glad to discover your channel!
I don’t know If you take requests but if you do could you post the clip from Le Cercle Rouge with Gian Maria Volonte and Delon smoking in the field? It is my personal favorite Delon moment
I already have this clip: ruclips.net/video/39e2uIajxmI/видео.htmlsi=DFC_d4JVfGI-aqHH Is this (part of) the clip you mean? -
@@AestheticOfTheImage yeah it is right after that one ends, Delon flips him a cigarette and they just smoke together and stare wordless for a minute or so
Nice.
Oh dear. Terrible news.
By the sound of his feuding remaining family, he's well off out of it (!)
