#70-year-old movies

[bixels]

Watched Rear Window last week. Went a little overboard on what was supposed to be a simple expression/design study.

Maybe one of the most bone-chilling scenes in film.

Individual shots:

i just remembered how many gold ships there are in JoJo like it truly does not get more wild. Every one hits in some wild offshoot bullseye

Mel Brooks's Young Frankenstein turns 50 these days. Feel old yet ?

50 years later, it seems director Mel Brooks and actor Gene Hackman (as the blind priest) are the only ones still alive among the cast of this great 70s movie (there's also Anne Beesley who played the little girl).

y’all seriously need to start making more fan works for strangers on a train 1951. like. more everything. more fanart, and DEFINITELY more fanfics. holy shit… some of those fanfics y’all write are SPICY.

emilia perez saw rocky horror discourse and decided to get in on that by being a million times worse in every way while being made in 2024 when people should know better instead of fifty years ago and also not being enjoyable in any way possible

halloween kills is so funny

because halloween(2018) goes out of its way to make it clear that they're scraping the whole laurie and micheal are family and he needs to finish the job thing at the beginning of the movies by having laurie's grand daughter correct her friends about laurie and michael being siblings, she says it's just a rumor.

so i just think it's really silly that this movie has like two narratives painting michael n two different ways

1. he lurks. he kills. he goes home.

2. he is coming to this mother fucking hospital everyone get fucking ready to shoot this lunatic that has already survived two missing fingers a shot to the face and a literal house burning around him. he is evil and he wants laurie and we have to kill him. OMG OMG HES HERE OH GOD.

like the whole scene where there's a false witch hunt and the cop guy is like "this is what micheal wanted he's turning us into monsters"

meanwhile micheal is killing cunty gay couple cause they're in his house (all people bleed red the shape does not discriminate)

like yeah he's evil and he's my goat so of course he keeps getting up and yall gotta handle that shit SWIFTLY

buttttt..... that guy yall chased down was like what? 5'5 and heavy set?

when you all know the boogie man is a tall fit mf??

and ur blaming my butch boyfriend Michael?

Nosferatu was a big…HUH.

Kinda wild that Fred Astaire was a famously private person about whose personal life we know very little and who literally put a provision in his will asking that there never be a film made of his life story and the guy who directed Paddington saw all that and said oh shit I have to make a biopic of this man
