What the fuck are you smoking dude

it'd be better to curate than just list every director, since you can already get such a list on wiki

is there a nonpozzed site where you can record your watched films maybe with a short review on each one? preferably with a clean, simple interface not full of junk.

Is William Holden kino? I saw Satan Never Sleeps and The Lion but truth to be told I was on my phone throughout both.

Welcome to /film/, I don't care about the spreadsheets or the MEGA links (I don't curate that) and the charts in it.

New Seidl
>The second film in Ulrich Seidl’s recent diptych, which began with Rimini, follows the life of a pedophile who has not acted on his deplorable inclinations.
>Soft-spoken, doting, and seemingly impotent Ewald (Georg Friedrich) and his Romanian girlfriend are setting off for her homeland to visit her family. Their lacklustre relationship crumbles, and Ewald, a pedophile who hasn’t acted on his reprehensible inclinations, begins to fixate on scouting abandoned schools in various states of disrepair — which he plans to convert into dojos for prepubescent boys (played by local non-actors as part of a participatory and meticulously monitored production alongside consenting families). Ewald’s dubious endeavour is rounded out by visits to a nursing home inhabited by his father, who suffers from dementia and whose only lucid moments come through visits to the cemetery and songs from his days as a Nazi officer.

>Sparta is the second film in a diptych that began with Rimini, which screened in the 2022 Berlinale Competition and centres on Ewald’s brother Richie, a financially and morally bankrupt faded pop star in a permanent state of intoxication. With Sparta, writer-director Ulrich Seidl — notorious for tackling vexing topics — intended not to scandalize but rather to provoke conversation about a contentious issue. Partnering with his frequent collaborators, including director of photography Wolfgang Thaler and co-writer Veronika Franz (who attended the Festival in 2014 with her co-directed film Goodnight Mommy), Seidl — who was the subject of TIFF 2001’s Spotlight programme and whose other TIFF credits include Paradise: Hope (TIFF ’13) and Safari (TIFF ’16) — does not shy away from controversy, and pushes his oeuvre examining the most disturbing aspects of humanity.

No it doesn't.
