    An excellent film about film making is 'Their Finest'. It works especially well if you have seen some British WW2 films like 'A Canterbury Tale', 'Millions Like Us', and 'Went The Day Well?', but it also stands on it's own for those who haven't..

  • @1165mac
    @1165mac 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Some movies, like Lawrence of Arabia and 2001, could easily become boring if not seen on the largest possible screen with high quality sound. In such films, cinematography and sound design are just as essential as any other aspect and I don't believe can be given due justice on equipment most people have in their homes. So, when someone who I know appreciates movies tells me they thought LoA was boring, I ask HOW they viewed it.

    Happiness isn't accepting how life is. I think it's realizing the changes needed to make life better and then aim for those. You can't fix things out of your control, but you can with what your in control over. To help yourself and others. Not that I do this all the time, going through other shit rn, but i think that's right to do. Artificial happiness can come from entertainment, but I think true happiness is what I said before. Recently been getting into philosophy and reading this stuff has changed my mind on some important things. I used to be pretty pessimistic, thinking the world is fucked and will never get better. I'm not 100% optimistic now, but I'm closer to that than the former.
