Film Scenes [Illustrated] - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

I invite any others who may wish to help proliferate this topic's aim, which is just as simple as posting a one-shot foto-still from any favourite, recognized, studio-produced, and cult films of your choosing. Oh. Though no pornography please (and no nude scenes either).

I will also try to enforce a simple yet effective model of how to go about submitting a "feature" here: it's as easy as uploading a scene of whatever film strikes your fancy, and posting the foto-still here. The caveat, though, in which I verily hope is respected and abided by throughout, is the simple formula of: listing the film credits.

Informational example of a conforming post - (Film title, dir. by Name: , year of release)
If the image contains any actors in it, it is your choice whether or not you wish to mention them in your post. That's all.

With the above preface out of the way, shall we begin the features, then?

I'm not yet sure whether or not I should include/allow cartoons and television series to mix into the well-water. I'm leaning towards a definitive "no".

Monty Python and the Holy Grail - dir. by Terry Gilliam and Terry Jones (1975)

In this clip:
King Arthur (Graham Chapman), The Black Knight (John Cleese).

A favorite movie of mine, especially this scene where the Black Knight reply to his injuries as "just a flesh wound!".

Very many thanks for contributing, freeload (and also, for following the formula to a "T").

I found it hilarious, light-hearted, and coincidentally-awesome that your film happened to follow my first post, and the personal commentary just set it right. I was also musing upon the idea of interspersing some film scenes, along with the dialogue that had accompanied that particular scene, to make it seem "complete" with its rightful context of where, exactly, any particular post here happened to pause in any random film that should appear here.

Well, enough about me, explaining and elaborating about/toward you:

Barbe-bleue (US: Bluebeard) - dir. by Georges Méliès (1902)

Miriam Bale explains the tale:

Quote:

Bluebeard was supposedly partially inspired by a 15th-century Breton serial killer named Gilles de Rais, but "Bluebeard" itself is a fairy tale. It was first written down by Charles Perrault who also wrote "Sleeping Beauty", "Cinderella", and "Little Red Riding Hood" and is known as the father of the modern fairy tale. But Bluebeard is remarkable for being a fairy tale without much magic; it's very much about real people. It also reads as fairly modern in some ways. It was written in the 17th century, but it's about a man who goes on a bunch of business trips and his smart, curious unsatisfied wife! Bluebeard is rich, generous and owns several beautifully furnished homes. He's also lonely and thought of as ugly (indicated by the hideous blue beard.) And he has a terrible reputation for marrying frequently and having these wives then mysteriously disappear. A young, unnamed heroine marries him anyway, with much pressure from her impoverished family. He gives her a full set of keys for exploring all the castle's innumerable treasures as he goes off on his frequent business trips, but he also gives her one small key to a room at the end of the hall that she's banned from looking in. Temptation! So, of course, she has to have a peek. She does and finds all the bodies of the previous wives in a bloody mess. A spot of blood gets on the key, and the only fantastic element of this story is that the spot won't disappear. Once Bluebeard sees the bloodied key he has to kill her, at least according to his rules. In the Perrault version, especially in the original French version, there's then this lyrical, haunting passage where, in the few minutes she's granted before she's supposed to die, she asks her sister over and over again if anyone is coming to rescue her. "No, I just see the sun with clouds powdering and the grass greening," or something like that is her sister Anne's poetic and feckless reply.

Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind - dir. by Michel Gondry (2004)

personal note:
Is it possible for someone to have watched this film, and still feel totally ambivalent about it, as I do?
All I ever hear is how much others either love or hate this particular endeavor in cinematic storytelling.

oliver9184 · 07-18-2010, 11:24 PM

I don't really love or hate Eternal Sunshine to any extreme degree but I'd say I come closer to liking it than disliking it. I plan to watch it again soon anyway so after that I'll perhaps have a more firm opinion. From what I remember though it has a pretty downbeat - galling even - conclusion that didn't sit well with people expecting a more traditional romantic comedy.

oliver9184 Psycho	I don't really love or hate Eternal Sunshine to any extreme degree but I'd say I come closer to liking it than disliking it. I plan to watch it again soon anyway so after that I'll perhaps have a more firm opinion. From what I remember though it has a pretty downbeat - galling even - conclusion that didn't sit well with people expecting a more traditional romantic comedy.
