Portugal. Vive a vida, ou melhor, o sonho que levas. Nao julgues que por nao materializares o teu sonho na realidade que falhas a vida, e digo te isto pq com essas escolhas és realmente singular.
Recomendo te Raul Brandao, outro portugues, que escreveu a Morte do Palhaco. E o Eca realmente é mt bom, o meu favorito é a Ilustre Casa de Ramires.

Agradeço, meu caro, pelas doces palavras.

Ainda não li Raul Brandão, mas, graças ao teu comentário, já entrou na minha lista de futuras aquisições.

Aproveito e faço-te uma recomendação brasileira: Mário Faustino, poeta dos anos 50, nascido no Piauí, modernista e poundiano ao extremo, porém enriquecido por uma singularíssima veia simbolista às vezes quase romântica; morreu jovem, deixando poucos poemas, porém de rara beleza.

''Estava lá Aquiles, que abraçava
Enfim Heitor, secreto personagem
Do sonho que na tenda o torturava;
Estava lá Saul, tendo por pajem
Davi, que ao som da cítara cantava;
E estavam lá seteiros que pensavam
Sebastião e as chagas que o mataram.
Nesse jardim, quantos as mãos deixavam
Levar aos lábios que os atraiçoaram!
Era a cidade exata, aberta, clara:
Estava lá o arcanjo incendiado
Sentado aos pés de quem desafiara;
E estava lá um deus crucificado
Beijando uma vez mais o enforcado.''

Most of Kubrick's, Kurosawa's, Leni Riefenstahl(Triumph of the Will), Coppola's three or four main works etc. But we must acknowledge that film can never measure to artistic historicity because of its innate schisms. We can see it as a natural degradation and individualisation of the dramatic arts, for cinematography is in juxtaposition against it.

he didn't even reply to you anon, not even the common courtesy that you showed him out of no commanded, but good willed necessity. And now he throws you in the mug as you might imagine to know as you did as a child, filthy and wet; but enjoyable, you don't know this but it's fun, you understand what and why you'r in the mud. So why'r you in the mud?

--------------Because he Pushed you--------------

You always retaliate, it's in your nature; ever since primary school you never backed down, don't shame your father, you know too well this to be true, love him and make him love you. You shouldn't need to be told! GET UP HE SAYS>. Kill him even, its not mattering in things and it may in only your hopeful slightest get your father to notice you and so do it in spite of this anyway. Because you can and must because of this. Cowardice is the worst of things to be known in the parents shame as genes as their raising failed.

Do it

for your wish is what you are

>>13951124
>good taste in directors but what do you mean that movies are "a natural degradation" of "the dramatic arts"?
That's quite a large subject that I'm working on currently, I'm not sure I can tell you in its entirety. But look at Scorses as example, he makes good flicks but as of yet has not created a piece of art. A man with great technical aptibility but lacking in any ideal. There's only - and by the laws of all artistic supersession (also writing on this now) - an exterior self placement and creation of value. Shutter Island a perfect example. Even look to Opera, what are they singing to? - the Artwork as a whole, not themselves.

Continue to ask away but within what I have said lies much of what I would consider the natural degradation; though I have not even approached the literal and irreducibly chore schisms themselves. Mainly because it's something that must be understood from the entire perspective of cinematographic as well as that of plot and the aim of the work.

>>13951271
then youre going to have to define "art" because im not sure where the distinction lies between a scorsese movie and art. is it that you think scorsese's movies lack an "ideal"? what should that "ideal" look like in a piece of art?

>>13951307
For the sake of conversation just consider my critique of Scorsese lacking an ideal a specific identification, and my definition of art as broad contrast to a history oof the dramatic arts.

>>13951271
operas have composers. so why would you completely ascribe Shutter Island to Scorsese, ignoring the volumes of work done on the movie by actors, cameramen, makeup artists? every good movie is a group effort

>>13951333
but from my perspective scorsese and cinema are a PART of the history of the dramatic arts and not a contrasting force, which is why youll have to differentiate the two. i understand its a really abstract question but i think its also foundational, unfortunately

>>13951351
It's okay anon, though it might go along slowly; I'll start.

Would you agree there is a definitive distinction between the place of drama within modernity(20th century), and then within the 19th century?(and by derivative Wagner - the peak of drama - and the peak of modern drama) One is cinema and one is not. Now there must be a characterisque difference of the two, not just some sort of evolutionary survival difference maintained but an intrinsic effect on psyche(can you think of such difference)?

>>13951339
Anon I would very much like to call you a fucking idiot, but it seems I'm bent on being polite this morning. Do you think every single composer choreographed and wrote the libretto as Wagner did? And do you think it would be without the directors means to approach these various areas (actors, cameraman, makeup artists etc) himself? - that is if we take it seriously and not just simply as a stupid distinction with no grounding but to play along - for example Mel Gibson both played and directed Braveheart and it's one of the greatest films ever made.

>>13951391
i agree that there is a distinction in the form that drama took between the 19th and 20th centuries (opera and plays vs cinema) but i think youll have to establish the difference in their "place" within their respective centuries for me because im not aware of any difference. i also am not willing to say there is a different effect on the psyche, youre gonna have to make that leap for me.

>>13951425
Remember anon, I don't wish to say in its entirety. So think this way, do you agree there is a difference between the 20th century art and 19th century art?

Also have to sleep soon so if I don't respond that's why.

>>13951449

and i guess i would agree there is a material difference in that 20th and 19th century art is influenced by 20th and 19th century political, historical, cultural and intellectual movements respectively. if youre asking for my preference i generally think 20th century art is better but thats not really material to what is objectively different between 20th and 19th century art

I'm sorry for the short reply cause sleep but I'll say this: find that difference and you have my complete answer. What is noticed in film, and what is not? What is necessary to interjoin an artwork together beyond technical capability? What effect does Opera (As in singing and music to express individual emotion) over and under the individual word? What does the rejection of camera angle and perception have over and under the various cinematographic forms? What in and how do these various factors culminate?

>>13951556

>>13946376

>>13951569
how can you expect anyone to take you seriously about movies if you think the pinnacle of the art is Braveheart and the example you deploy to contrast 20th century cinema with 19th century opera and “plays” is a mediocre 21st century mainstream film?

ill answer your questions one by one i guess
>what is noticed in film and what is not?
cinematography and the stage, respectively
>what is necessary to interjoin an artwork together beyond technical capability?
the concept of art...? for example i would say that something like welding takes technical capability but its not art unless somebody views it as such
>what effect does opera have over and under the written word?
i wouldnt say any effect over or under... music appeals to people in ways that are different than other mediums but i wouldnt say it really has advantages over other forms of art
>what does the rejection of camera angle have over and under the various cinematographic forms?
again i wouldnt compare the two in terms of advantages or disadvantages, i think the absence of cinematography makes operas and plays appear more "objective" and films more "subjective" but again i wouldnt say thats really better or worse?
>what in and how do these various factors culminate?
idk mate you tell me

Starsector and Modern Warfare 2 because I am a child.
>Historical leader
I don't know if you could call him a leader but Alexander Hamilton is a personal hero of mine which embarrasses me thanks to the musical. If it has to be a head of state I'll go with William the Conqueror, though.

In my defense, I am far more /fit/ than /lit/

I heard the Legends of The Fall book is very different from the movie. You should try reading the book. I think Jim Harrison is talented.

Rating simply by how surprising/original/non-obvious the list is by /lit/ standards. Very common favorites reduce score, unusual ones increase it even if they are extremely normie. Extremely obscure / normie tastes next to /lit/ tastes are more surprising to me than a list of purely normie tastes or purely obscure tastes. Most ratings will be low. This is not necessarily criticism or praise.

Whenever something like this comes up, you can just sniff out the posers who will pick something obscure as their "best ever" simply to appear interesting. No, that obscure Norwegian pulp writer from 1934 is probably not better than Shakespeare. In keeping with the Lindy effect, it should actually be expected that most picks would be well-known artists who stood the test of time.

>>13953241
I agree, tried to account for that by not falling for people who clearly, deliberately chose obscure picks

tbf, tards who like video games waste way more than a mere hour on that shit

>>13953310
A lot of them do, but to imply that there is no way to responsibly use leisure time on video games is silly. They are extremely entertaining and some of them are quite beautiful. If done well they could realistically combine all the most compelling aspects of literature, visual art, and game logic to create something more engrossing than any book or film. I don't think this has been achieved yet, but it's a young medium - eventually there will be a game that can stand with the best.

>>13953117
Thank you for the suggestion, mate! It never even occurred to me until you mentioned it. It just went to the top of my reading list.

>>13953358
I know it's such a normie example but I think Dark Souls will be remembered as one of the first video games with artistically meaningful game mechanics. I'm excited that we're starting to see more of that lately.

>>13953145
You seem to have good taste, and a rational way of responding to multiple posts. Do you have a list of your own I would be interested at looking at some of your picks.

>>13953476
I'm not well-read nor do I have unusual tastes, most of my choices are extremely /lit/, but I will say in my defense that I discovered and liked most of them before I found this board. I know more about video games and contemporary music than anything else by far.
