SUBLIME CINEMA #673 - THE BEST YEARS OF OUR LIVES

Criminally difficult to find a good transfer of this film - Criterion has ignored It, and it's unusual for a movie that once took home eight Oscars to have been so forgotten. But this is a profound, understated masterpiece, with some incredible cinematography by Citizen Kane's Gregg Toland.

coming on here to say yall should go see SALTBURN!!!! bitches will try to say it isn't gay enough or doesn't make "good" commentary on class but I am begging you to go see it because it is, first and foremost, an insanely good satire and also it's just fucking insane????? I genuinely believe what Emerald is doing with Saltburn is what others are afraid to do. my favorite letterboxd review for the film says it's just "kink and filth." if that's not reason enough for y'all idk what is

Okay, Margot Robbie is a rich white woman who got to star in Barbie. This whole white feminist nonsense of her and ‘ the injustice of it all’ of no nomination when Black and brown actresses and directors being snubbed literally every year is annoying shit.

Gosling and Clinton should’ve kept those letters because it’s dumb as shit to act like a movie like that was something groundbreaking when there were other actresses of color who had eons better performance than a blonde white woman discovering men suck.

Where were these crackers when Angela Bassett and Stephanie Hsu saw a white nepo baby win for a cameo appearance ? Oh right SILENT. And they STAY SILENT when it comes to Black Women and being snubbed for stellar performances. Along with the fact America Ferrera is not being praised even though she was also in Barbie so frankly, it’s why I have been tuned off by the movie as a whole. White women are insufferable about how they show up for only themselves.

279 - Nope

With another Oscar ceremony coming to a close, it's time to crack the seal on the Class of 2022 movies and we couldn't wait to talk about Jordan Peele's Nope! Priming audiences for a big summer alien invasion film, Peele also delivered a film with a lot on its mind about society's relationship to witnessing and capturing violent spectacle, the film industry's history of disregard for Black artists, and how we package our own traumas. With a terrific ensemble led by Daniel Kaluuya and Keke Palmer as siblings who discover an unexplainable phenomena in the skies, Nope is perhaps 2022's biggest head-scratcher among films not recognized by the Academy.

This episode, we talk about the 2022 box office dynamic that unfairly tainted Nope as a box office disappointment and its many, rich avenues for narrative interpretation. We also talk about Kaluuya's underrated performance, Palmer's contrasting performance that was campaigned in supporting, and what makes the movie a monster movie vs. an alien movie.

Topics also include Gordy going off, Hoyte van Hoytema's cinematography, and breakthrough star Jean Jacket.

Academy Award Winners for Best Cinematography: 2022 — Greig Fraser, ACS, ASC Dune (2021) Directed by Denis Villeneuve Aspect Ratio: 2.39 : 1

Desert colors dominate throughout the movie, but Fraser, [production designer Patrice] Vermette and costume designer Jacqueline West went to great lengths to imbue that palette with subtle and organic variations of color. “We worked very hard to make sure the world of Dune was not monochromatic,” Fraser says. “For example, Patrice worked veins of reds and blues into the sand walls. He — and Jacqueline, who built these subtle gradations of color into the costumes — both did wonderfully subtle work, and I had to make sure we were capturing those subtleties."

“My approach was to pull as much color as possible out of non-colorful situations,” he continues. “It was all subtle differences, not necessarily bold color contrasts. Achieving bold color in film is super easy. Achieving depth [in the image while creating a natural-light look] when you’re working with a digital sensor and digital lights is harder than it might first appear.” — The American Society of Cinematographers, January 2022
