Here’s a great film entitled "David Lynch Teaches You The Art Of Life---Full Masterclass." It’s almost three hours long, but it’s time well spent to watch it.

Movie/film suggestions.
While this is of course a forum for the discussion of all things audio/hi-fi and music, pretty much all of us are also lovers of movies, the enjoyment of which is effected by the reproduction of the sound they contain (with the exception of silent movies 
).
I've been focused on David Lynch movies since his death, but with current events so much a part of our lives at the moment, I plan on re-watching a movie I’ve seen only once, and years ago. That movie is:
The Madness Of King George. Apropos, no?

+1 for Jean de Florette and its sequel, Manon of the Spring....breathtakingly beautiful and heart-rending Hear My Song...little known, funny, touching and wonderful music Chaplin's City Lights...maybe my all-time favorite Billy Wilder's The Fortune Cookie...seriously, Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau at their best Singin' in the Rain...hmm, maybe this is my all-time favorite Fritz Lang's Metropolis Everything by the Coen brothers Almost everything by Wes Anderson and about 1,000 others... |
@77jovian: I haven’t seen The Fortune Cookie, but I sure love Lemmon and Matthau in The Odd Couple. Who doesn’t?! Agree about the Coen’s, with the exception of Intolerable Cruelty. But then I haven’t seen The Hudsucker Proxy, Burn After Reading, or The Ladykillers (love the original). I love, love, love The Man Who Wasn’t There and A Serious Man. The Ballad Of Buster Scruggs is pretty darn great, and of course it goes without saying so are Fargo and O Brother, Where Art Thou?. Mean Streets was the first Martin Scorsese film I saw, which may be why it remains my favorite of his (well, it and Taxi Driver).

@bdp24 I admit that part of my affection for The Fortune Cookie is because I practiced law for 40 years and the TFC is a perfect send-up of personal injury lawsuits. And great in other ways, too. Probably my career also heightens my appreciation of the Coens' Intolerable Cruelty. I also loved the Hudsucker Proxy and Burn After Reading. The Ladykillers is good but not among their bests IMO. Surprising nobody has mentioned Blood Simple and The Big Lebowski as Coen essentials, too. |
