The 5. 0 Best Movies on Netflix Instant (My Version)After coming across Josh Jackson’s recent list over at Paste Magazine, I thought: it’s a fine list, but my version would be considerably different. So, since I really really like compiling things, I decided to give it a go.
A few constraints/parameters: (i) Despite the title, my list doesn’t pretend to be a “best of” list. It’s just a list of my favorites.(ii) I didn’t repeat any of Jackson’s selections, even though he chose a few I might’ve included, like Jean- Pierre Jeunet’s Delicatessen and Spike Jonze’s Being John Malkovich.(iii) I only used one film per director, even in instances when I could’ve easily done multiple (Catherine Breillat, Wong Kar- wai, Buster Keaton, and Jean- Luc Godard come to mind).(iv) Omissions abound, obviously. Watch Mike Tyson: Undisputed Truth Hindi Full Movie.
No room for Olivier Assayas’s Boarding Gate, Michael Haneke’s Funny Games, or Stephan Elliott’s Eye of the Beholder, to name but three of the missing I’d have liked to include. Then again, I enjoy the incompleteness of lists like these, that they can never truly be comprehensive is part of the fun I derive from composing them.
Always, there will be a mistake. Always, they will be lacking. The Simpsons Season 23 Episode 7. What a truly wonderful revelation!(v) I started off intending to emulating Jackson’s numbering system, counting down from #5. I decided against it because it only reinforces the “best of” model by saying #1 is the best of the best and #5.
Instead, you can just think about the fifty films listed below as one big assemblage of moving, striking, compelling, and provocative artworks I consider kick- ass and well worth your time. Otto; or, Up With Dead People. Directed by Bruce La. Bruce(2. 00. 8)Let’s begin with the undead. Given the recent surge in popularity of zombie tales such as The Walking Dead and Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, it would seem the last thing we need is another one. Unless, of course, it was radically different.
Otto is most certainly radically different. Lara Glenum and the Montevideyo crowd (how’s that for a band name?) turned me on to this one. Writing for the New York Times, Nathan Lee described it as “straddling the line between art and smut, the underground and the indie scene.” I would add that it’s also a sad beautiful existential homosexual zombie film with a film inside it.
Sleeping Beauty. Directed by Julia Leigh(2. I could tell you how haunting this film is, could extol its quiet elegance, but I think the best way to convince you this one is a keeper is to share a couple of “negative” reviews. James Berardinelli, for instance, writing for Reelviews, gave it two out of four stars saying that “with an emotional temperature approaching absolute zero, Leigh finds it difficult to accomplish more than present a pastiche of artistic images signifying little.” Are you kidding? That sounds awesome!
Emotional zeroing. Artistic images signifying nothing, how is that a bad thing? Dear Berardinelli, have you never read Macbeth, dude?
Remember the Act 5, Scene 5 soliloquy, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing, etc.? Or consider Peter Debruge, of Variety, who described the film as frustrating, “more tiresome than anything,” and having “a distinctly first- draft feel.” I want to ask Peter Debruge: you do realize that art is meant to be frustrating, right? You’ve read at least an intro to Adorno, right? And I mean, I’m sorry, but if you don’t find a film with “a distinctly first- draft feel” exciting and interesting as hell, then you and I are worlds apart.
The Shape of Things. Directed by Neil La. Bute(2. 00. 3)A play before being transformed into a film, this — like most of Neil La. Full Episode Of Steven Universe Jailbreak. Bute’s stuff — is mean. For a long time I avoided his films because of how mean they are. But Jon Erickson required me to watch this one for a graduate class at Ohio State on Ethics and Aesthetics. I’m glad he did. This captivating and heartbreaking film brings performance art to a whole other level, while exploring the connection between art and cruelty.
Blue Steel. Directed by Kathryn Bigelow(1. Steven Shaviro dedicates the first chapter of his amazing book The Cinematic Body to a close examination of this film. He writes, “Vision in Blue Steel is excrutiatingly, preternaturally vivid; reality is heightened into feverish hallucination. Such hypertrophy of the visual is Bigelow’s way of undoing the security and possessiveness that have conventionally been associated with the “male gaze.” She pushes fetishism and voyeuristic fascination to the point where they explode.”The Man From London. Directed by B. The thing I love about Tarr is how he does black and white cinematography better than nearly anybody, how he moves the camera better than nearly anybody, and how he paces things.
It’s mesmerizing. Should also credit cinematographer Fred Kelemen, who is a genius and obviously a big part of creating the look of this film. As for the pacing, you could maybe locate it somewhere between Pedro Costa and Tarkovsky, or at least at their end of the pacing scale. Despite being his eighth film, this was his first to premiere in competition at the Cannes Film Festival. Sadly, it won neither the Palme d’Or (Cristian Mungiu won for 4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days) nor the Camera d’Or (Etgar Keret and Shira Geffen won for Jellyfish) nor any other prize.
Pity, really. This movie rocks. Irr. In the opening scene, the camera is rigged into this gyroscopic mount that flips around and around as though you are strapped into that amusement park ride called the Zipper (you remember that ride?), and the audio excretes a particular frequency that is said to induce vomiting. So there’s that. I’ll borrow critic David Edelstein’s description for the gruesome parts: “First comes brutality so extreme that it borders on pornography: a man’s head being battered into mush in close- up, an anal rape of Monica Bellucci that lasts nine minutes—filmed in one take with a stationary camera.” So there’s that, too. I chose this one over the other No. Inspired by One Thousand and One Nights, this jawdropper was one of the most expensive films made in the 1. AFI listed it at #9 of the 1.
Personally, I love watching it and imagining the audience who watched it for the first time, sitting in a darkened, smoke- filled auditorium, dressed in suits and flapper dresses, chugging illegal booze from smuggled flasks, hooting and hollering at the screen. Audition. Directed by Takashi Miike(1.
Thanks to my brother, I’m fairly well versed in Miike’s oeuvre. If you’re new to his work, this could be a pretty good place to start. Along the lines of No. He thrives on transgressing taboos (Visitor Q) and pushing boundaries (Gozu). However, Audition is a much more subtle psychological horror than other of his films, believe it or not.
Well, until the last ten minutes or so, at least. Beware, once you hear Eihi Shiina say, “Deeper. Deeper.” after pushing long needles into her victim, it’s hard to erase that sound from your memory. It’s like she’s cooing. It will really haunt you. Seducing Time: Selected Prize Winning Videotapes 1.
Directed by Lynn Hershman Leeson(2. Pioneering multimedia artist Lynn Hershman Leeson spent most of the 6. Currently, she’s the Chair of the Film Department at the San Francisco Art Institute. This fantastic set of films offers a rare glimpse into the evolution of an artist concerned with issues of gender and identity in a time of consumerism, privacy in an era of surveillance, interfacing between humans and machines, and the relationship between real and virtual worlds. About an hour and half into this, Kathy Acker appears in a cafe, and talks about her writing a little bit.
It’s a real treat. The Living End. Directed by Gregg Araki(1.
