Persona


#472 Ingmar Bergman: Persona (1966)

I can freely state that Bergman is one of my favourite directors. I am working slowly through his repertoire, having seen some of his movies while still in school, and only now reaching his masterpiece 'Persona'. His movies are atmospheric and very intimate, the performances some of the best you'll ever see on big screen. The intro was somewhat confusing, and one second of seeing an erected penis out of any context does buffle you, even in this day and age..!
At times you are not sure what you are seeing, if you are missing a meaning...If I am not mistaken, the world's most renowned movie critics also have different takes on the subtext of the story. But one thing is certain, it grabs you and leaves an impression long after you've seen the last take showing the cameraman, well, closing the last take.

L'Age d'Or


#54 Luis Buñuel: L'Age d'Or (1930)

I love movies that are quirky and original, I love Salvador Dali's art, and I love Luis Buñuel's expression: somehow them coming together didn't exhilerate me as much as I hoped. Reading about the movie later on made me realise I have missed on so many references, so I guess it's not a surprise? However I found it very amusing the liberal take on sexuality, and this here is my favourite scene of the main female character suckling on a statue's toe :)

Updates

2) April 2018 UPDATE:

In a year and a half straight, I have only enriched the overall number by 13, which seems poor, poor indeed..! During a year working on a ship I was more enwrapped in TV series, I guess mainly cos I needed amusement in a shorter format. I have gone up by 1%, next 1% I will reach in three times less the time, at least that is the aim. All the movies seen since first publishing the list on this blog, will be marked red. The movie titles that are followed by a sign have been removed from more recent editions. Oh and, I haven't seen any of the new dozen...shows just how 'updated' I am.

1) The list is so long, I thought I'd keep the updates in a separate post, as to avoid scrolling all the way down the list. So what do the numbers say?

First of all I'd like to say that I have been considering this list for quite a few years now. But there have also been some wonderful surprises, when I'd run into a ( usually great ) movie on TV and later realise it is on this list. Doing the first stats just now I was surprised with two things: that the decade with most listed movies are the 80's, and that my highest percentage of seen movies per decade belongs to the 00's (rather than the 90's, the period of idle youth when at times I rented three videos per day. Well as they say, quantity don't mean quality..!).

Stats are as follows:

00's-10's: 2/5 (40%)

20's: 11/45 (24%)

30's: 31/90 (34%)

40's: 38/94 (40%)

50's: 46/133 (35%)

60's: 50/156 (32%)

70's: 56/160 (35%)

80's: 68/162 (42%)

90's: 83/157 (53%)

00's: 69/121 (57%)

10's: 25/54 (46%)

Intro

This blog is just my way to keep track of the movies I've seen...specifically the movies that have been included in all the editions of  the 1001 Movies You Must See Before You Die series. I am by no means an expert in the world of the cinema, but have always been a movie fan, and have seen a portion of these movies years before this book/list even existed. Well I am 38 and have seen the likes of The Apartment and Taxi Driver while in primary school; it has been a long journey so far, but I hope to make it longer still and am set on discovering the early treasures :)

That said, I have an abyssmal (not exagerrating!) memory, and most of the movies checked on this list will have to be seen again to be included in the blog, aforementioned ones included. At the moment I am watching the Cabinet Of Dr. Caligari (silent movies I tend to break in 2-3 sessions as my concetration tends to weaken when there is no dialogue, is that some kind of cheating..?!) and as soon as I've seen the somnambulist, I thought 'this looks familiar...' It feels like I have seen it sometime, someplace, a long time ago...I used to (and still do) have lists of movies seen in various notebooks, but then I forget which notebooks lol.

I will next post the complete list of 1177 movies, some of which have been removed from editions over the years - 1st edition was published in 2003, and the most recent (9th) one in 2015. In paper I own the 5th anniversary edition (but 3rd overall) from 2008, with Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom on the cover. As I was living in London in 2009 I was lucky to walk into a local Oxfam store and find it for 5 quid! And while in England I've used the chance to rent movies from Blockbuster per mail, as they had quite a few old classics on repertoire. Now of course its all about downloading, and quite a few movies will be tough to find. But its an enjoyable process and by no means do I put pressure on myself to finish the list at any close date :)

To bring this intro to an end, I will just add what kind of movies I generally like - and there is no simple answer of course! The variety is the key, but overall I will enjoy quirkiness, inovation, atmosphere, realism but also surrealism, and of course good acting. The less preferred genres would be war and sports movies, so I can foresee prolonging those...action movies can go both ways, these days they mostly bore me. And for horrors I simply have too feeble a heart. Those will be the toughest!
