Last Film You Saw

[fanatic1]

I loved “The Duelist” -is this cut of the same Cloth?

The Duelist wasn't bad but the basic premise was odd. Two French cavalry officers (Harvey Keitel and Keith Carradine) fighting a succession of duels over the years over some perceived slight. You half expected them at the end to fight in wheelchairs with zimmer frames as weapons . The Last Duel is the better film with much more plot and action.

The substance.

I enjoyed it up to a point. The ideas were predictable but how they were done wasn't if that makes sense. Tooo long. Probably would have made a better short movie.

Definitely a quirky film - but yeah,could have done with a good 15 mins shaved off.....

Ridley Scotts The Last Duel (2021) shares most of its DNA from Akira Kurosawa's Rashomon (1950), except Rashomon did it better 70 years ago.

The closest film to The Duellists (1977) is Stanley Kubricks Barry Lyndon (1975) in terms of style, setting with added painting like cinematography.

Yes that’s the one, it was a bit gripping at times

We’re all going to the world’s fair. (2021)

Watched this in advance of I saw the TV glow, but I might swerve it now as this was shit

I saw the tv glow is one of the worst films I've ever seen.

Wasn't a fan tbh, 4/10

Harsh i think the film got its point across well 8/10 for me.

Sidney Pointier got an Oscar to boot.
