I mean I think we're talking more about films released in the 21st century regardless of setting. There's certainly an interesting conversation to be had about the trends in science fiction over the last 10 years or so, with Julia Ducournau and both Cronenbergs' work especially. Really excited...

I'm surprised no one's mentioned some of the slow cinema practitioners of the 21st century. Can't think of a clever name for this list but my contributions would be the works of Apichatpong Weerasethakul, Jia Zhangke, and Nuri Bilge Ceylan.

An interesting flipside to this - not toxic nor exemplary, but perhaps meditative or redemptive? Notably the two examples that immediately jump to my mind are First Reformed and You Were Never Really Here, both from auteurs established in the 20th century. Essentially films following isolatos...

Much of A24 falls under this. Subsuming some of the great filmmakers they've put on the map under the name of a distributor I think devalues their work (like the Safdies) by placing it alongside the dreck you're talking about, so while I don't disagree with @catalog I think it's worth the effort...

I'm not familiar with any of those writers, I'm sure I'd agree with you if I were

Figured out the light meter. Will keep you all posted on my progress. I'm big on the Hudson River School as far as landscape paintings, but my goal is to create images as evocative of Kelly Reichardt and Larry Gottheim, to name a few, as possible.

The thing I find myself most intimidated by is picking the actual film to use; are there any you'd recommend for someone currently wanting to take pictures of the east coast of Scotland? I also haven't yet figured out how to use the built-in light meter, but I may just give up and use an app or...

Going to start film photography since a friend gave me an old Praktica LB and film as a gift. Any tips for beginngers? I'm mostly interested in landscapes.

Saw this last year, not bad https://letterboxd.com/film/altiplano-2018/

Listened to Blue the other day. I initially thought KC was joking when he said Joni's music made him respect and empathize with women more but now I am in complete agreement. Thank you Joni for saving my future marriage

I am going to prove to you that there is in fact an "in between" using your spine as an example

I was in Berlin a few weeks ago and yyaldrin is right it really is something in the spring. Botanical gardens were a revelation

Is there another Ian? Is he lengthy?

But I do suspect KC might like those more. A lot more Dylan covers

JGB and Legion of Mary I've barely touched. I'm still trying to figure out if I prefer the dead in the late 80s, early 70s, or 77

You guys responded quicker than I had time to read the posts succeeding that one. I demand an explanation of the man and his history with this place

Han was on here? A friend was just talking to me about writing his dissertation on the guy, is he worth a gander?

I haven't listened to any of the VU's live work, so I'll do that then report back. But as far as the discussion that's already been had, I don't think I can argue @padraig (u.s.)'s points about influence. I'm drawn to the dead for Jerry much more than any other member, and even though my dad is...

I've just started reading a book on Canyon Cinema, the distributor founded by Bruce Baillie, that's still very active if you're looking for modern stuff.
