Aldrig mera vinter.

Watched the 72 min cut of the 35 days full length version lol

Et d'écouter le vent.

My own private Tunisia.

Possibly Rappaport's funniest one yet. Streaming free on Filmmuseum München's vimeo page until 17/3.

Pola Negri steadfastly rowing into the sea is a mood.

Ever since the womb ‘til I'm back where my brother went
That's what my tomb will say
Right above my government; Dumile
Either unmarked or engraved, hey, who's to say?

Lovely, deliberate intertitles by Hjalmar Bergman.

Jaw-dropping stuff. Can be watched here: player.eyefilm.nl/en/films/the-brilliant-biograph

Nothing puts me at ease quite like the rhythm of a J.C. Monteiro film.

Slap some Oneohtrix Point Never on top of it and *chef's kiss*

Felt a little rushed, as if I was watching a rough draft of the film. Maybe Petzold just couldn't wait to cast Beer and Rogonowski together in a film again and hurried it (who can blame him though after their stellar performances in the brilliant Transit). I was hoping the stripped down style would at least give off some nice modern RKO pictures quickie vibes, like the mermaid film Val Lewton never produced or a 21st century Night Tide...but in the end it just felt like a skeleton of a film without any meat to it.

Shines brighter than Ford's small-town Americana, despite the dimly lit DVD transfer.
