Metropolis (Fritz Lang, 1927)

[nopefer-art-tu]

Home is where I want to be, but I guess I'm already there

I come home, she lifted up her wings. I guess that this must be the place

I can't tell one from another—Did I find you, or you find me?

There was a time before we were born

If someone asks, this where I'll be

Where I'll be

[nemotakeit]

no one touch me

Leave The City was "One day I'll leave this place, but right now, I can't. In the meanwhile I'll fight to stay alive and not lose hope about making the final escape. We're in this together."

Paladin Strait is "I'm risking death to return to the very place they battered my soul in to dismantle the whole system and thus make the final escape. We're in this together."

TIL that The Silence of the Lambs (1991) was designed by a woman named Dawn Baillie. She isn't even mentioned in the movie's Wikipedia page and her individual Wikipedia page doesn't contain any images of her work. This iconic poster is characteristic of Baillie's signature simplicity, subtlety and cleverly hidden symbolism within her design, giving just enough to intrigue the viewer and entice them to watch the film. Her work for The Silence of the Lambs received numerous awards, most notably named "best film poster of the last 35 years" at the 2006 Key Art Awards. Her work also includes other iconic posters, including Dirty Dancing, Little Miss Sunshine and Isle of Dogs.

When asked to choose her favorite poster she's designed she said, "As a mother, I love all of my children. Each poster has its own story of love, challenges, tears, and triumphs. I love the first one, for “Dirty Dancing,” because it gave me confidence, and I love the last because it proves I’m still capable."

Not explaining this lol

I WILLEXPLODE INTO ONE BILLION PIECES IF YOU DRAW CHERIK PHYSIO ART pls plspls

(Charles wheelchair representation enjoyer anon here) to the anon that was talking about X2 YESYESYES !!!!! You get me!!!!! For me it’s the scene in DofP where Charles chooses to not take the medication and asks Hank to help him to his study I ugly cry watching it every time. Most disability representation in film around that time was like “disabled character exists solely to teach the able bodied lead that they should live life to the fullest and then they die and the death is usually seen as a good ending for them” so seeing Charles actively choose to reckon and come to terms with his disability and not give up on life because of it AND THEN HE GETS TO MEET A FUTURE VERSION OF HIMSELF THAT IS SO SECURE AND CONFIDENT AND HAS GIVEN SO MANY OTHER PEOPLE LIKE HIM A SAFE SPACE AAUUGHHGGJ GOODBYEE

IN DUE TIME MY FRIENDS I SWEAR TO YOOUUU 🫵🫵

AND SOOO TRUE ABOUT DOFP youre so right .... god youre so right ...

Metropolis (Fritz Lang, 1927)

The Forgotten (Don't Look in the Basement, 1973)

"Perhaps I shouldn't have come here at all."

"I don't think there's any point in our talking about your leaving, Miss Beale. You forget, you were very anxious to take this job. I made special provisions for you to be here."

"I realise that, but I don't know what to do!"

"I'm the doctor and you're the nurse, and what I do decides what you will do!"

🏳‍🌈🌈Movie Recommendation 13

Edward II (1991) 💖💖💖

Edward II (1991) by Dereck Jarman ( a very modern adaptation of Christopher Marlowe's play), is one of my favourite movies; it may not be perhaps to everyone's taste.

I always wanted to do a video of Edward and Piers' tragic love story. It took a while but I finally did it, I hope some of you will like it. You can see it on my fanvid YT channel.

Here is a scene of Edward II and Piers with Annie Lennox singing a Cole Porter song in the background...💖💔🎵
