What I don't want is to turn every embarrassed guy in his movies into a stand-in for him. that feels smart for like 30 seconds, then it stops me from looking at what the scene is actually doing.

Paul in Dream Scenario is dealing with something he didn't choose. The guy in the essay is describing his own choices and how he thought about them. That difference matters before i connect anything.

The useful question for me is where a movie asks me to follow a character's feelings, and whether I start treating those feelings as the final word without noticing.

I can be more alert to that now without claiming I found the key to his whole filmography has knowing stuff about a director ever helped your reading of a movie without taking it over?

These are movies that I don’t want to watch nor consider/have any interest in watching as either I’ve seen clips of the film or have heard about/seen reviews of them online and they made me uncomfortable to watch the movie as a whole.

/r/TopFilms' Top 100 Films Of All-Time.

Sick of the downvotes or the circlejerk replies you get on /r/movies? Welcome to /r/topfilms!

A casual place to share your own top film lists or recently published lists from magazines or websites. They can be for all-time, a single year, a director, or any specific topic.

Letterboxd Thread - Please feel free to continue browsing and posting on this thread to find each other.

POSTING RULES AND GUIDELINES

1. Be respectful and civil.

The main idea of this sub is so that people with different movies preferences can come here to discuss their favorites and get and give recommendations. Basically, just respect what others think.

2. No bullying.

Similar to Rule 1. If you don't agree with what another user has said, don't resort to name calling, insults or general disrespect. We want this subreddit to be as pleasant as possible to others. Simple reddiquette.

3. Please source the website in your title.

So if you take a list from a website, please put the websites name in the title. It'll make it easier if someone searches for a post in the future.

4. Don't post unrelated content.

This subreddit is specifically for film lists. Don't post any other content that isn't related to movie lists that express opinion. For instance, a list about most disappointing endings are acceptable, but a list about a DVD collection that isn't ranked is not.

5. Self-promotion is welcome.

Don't be afraid to post your own lists and thoughts in this sub. We want to hear your thoughts and we want to generate discussion among other users but it isn't required like /r/truefilm.

6. Be creative!

Feel free to be as creative as you like. You could post a request asking for the top 5 films on Netflix right now or films set in a submarine, or anything like that. We welcome creativity and specificity.
