Good illustration of the difference between beginners, intermediates and pros/experts. And it is vast.
In the film’s context, I prefer Anne’s and Heath’s version of the scene. It is integral to their already-revealed characters. Out of the context of the film, I think Nina’s and Logan’s (the non-Oscar pros) version is better as a disconnected scene.
Nope. That’s the elementary school reading of Nietzsche.
Now to what ol’ Friedrich was actually getting at. He was saying that all knowledge and progress is from a perspective, and furthermore was observing that with the loss of binding religion that had pervaded all culture, we’d need to create new horizons and values, of many different kinds, all instantiated by and for humans rather than handed down from some higher power or metaphysical authority.
In other words, we must become the god we killed; Nietzsche was not saying all hope of a shared future or futures was lost, but that now we were wholly in charge of creating any of that.
As I’ve said before, the philosopher Baby Queen understands Nietzsche better than most people who read him, including Nils Gilman.
I love how bass-heavy this version is. That bassist has such a unique style and playing method, too. I think she holds it like that because she’s small, but it’s really good no matter. Mazzy Star is one of the few bands that I listened to in the 1990s that I enjoy the same amount today, and listen to fairly often still.
This is great. It really nails the Phil Spector-esque “wall of sound.” It even has the appropriate key change in the last 1/4 of the song. So much fun.
I don’t like this song for itself much, but from a nostalgic perspective I do. It reminds me of Riot Grrrl and when feminism was actually good. That’s back when we were all attempting to have fun, before identitarian BS took over and before men were treated like default rapists 100% of the time.
The song has all of two chords and is very repetitive, but in its own way it’s still fun. Though I won’t listen to it again.
This is one of the many reasons copyright needs to die.
I don’t give a fuck about copyright and I’d eliminate it 100% tomorrow if I could. As it is now, copyright is mainly a weapon to wield against opinions and ideas that large corporations dislike. But even if it weren’t it’d still be better on net to nuke it.
If you’re not violating at least a few dozen copyrights a day, are you even living?
Sรฉ que querรญan que ella estuviera mรกs libre paโ moverse, pero ese micro no me mola nada. Suena sรบper plano. Eso sรญ, buena actuaciรณn y me flipa su intensidad.
I love this entire set of scenes; a masterclass in filmmaking. And it’s all so nasty. You feel kind of dirty after watching it. Which is, of course, the point.
But it’s all so perfect. Juliette Gariรฉpy just nails the creepy psycho vibe (very hard to do for an exceptionally beautiful woman, by the way!) and the music intensifies the feeling of dread that is and dread to be. I also like it because the director (et al.) made sonic and blocking choices I never would’ve considered — and these made the scene so much better than my tendencies here would have. (And yes, the entire film is in 4:3 format. It’s not some YouTube upload issue.)
Apologies, this is all in French with no subtitles and I’m too tired to translate, but the visuals, music and non-speech here are what really matter anyway.
I actually like Emily’s version better than the Waxahatchee original. Just has a little more melancholy and whimsy. And is much better-recorded and less repetitive.
And Beth! We miss you1! She was my second-favorite character on The Walking Dead. When she died I stopped watching the show for months. Emily did such a great job with her portrayal of Beth. It’s rare that an actor can play someone who is a bit naรฏve while also having them be realistically strong and capable. And demonstrating growth over time.
