Evan C Posted July 31, 2014 Report Share Posted July 31, 2014 As someone who watched four episodes of The Decalogue in one sitting, as well as a double feature of Three Colors: Blue and White, with Red on the following night, Darrel's post may be slightly hyperbolic, but it's certainly more or less correct.

Anders Posted July 31, 2014 Report Share Posted July 31, 2014 Darrel is "objectively" wrong, since even if you don't like Tarkovsky (which I don't understand) you can at least have a nice nap through those two films, which might be difficult during a root canal. Anyway, about this list. I'm still very excited about it and hope to be able to add a lot to discussion as the voting gets closer. I was able to see a couple more films on the nominations list this summer and hope to get to more in the next month.

First time I've ever left the New Beverly between shows. A gorgeous print, but the subtitling for The Mirror was unwatchable. Lost at least 50% of the dialogue because the white subtitling almost completely blended in with the image. Couldn't bring myself to stay for Nostalghia for fear of the same thing.

Christian Posted August 15, 2014 Report Share Posted August 15, 2014 That's is the most depressing thing I've read all week. Oh, OK, it's not. World's gone crazy. But during a more "normal" week, the fleeing of Tarkovsky would qualify. Subtitles in The Mirror? Dialogue is the last thing I think about when I think of that film, but it's been a long time since I've seen it.

Dialogue is the last thing I think about when I think of that film, but it's been a long time since I've seen it. Perhaps the subtitles aren't necessary after multiple viewings.
