Nogiku no gotoki kimi nariki (1955) wasnt made by Ozu, but it was very moving and also slow, but not as slow as your images movie.
I guess I found myself in a similar situation at one poing in my younger days. That is why it was so hewrt wrenching.

Kuraitokoro de Machiawase
Man accused of murder at a train station ran to hide in a nearby house.
The only occupant is a blind girl. He realizes this, and lives in her house while never revealing his presence.
One of the best movies I've ever watched, the plot of this movie was one of the best ever created.

I watched the new sci-fi film "Life" recently. It felt like a B-movie, but it had some actual A-list talent like Jake Gyllenhaal and Ryan Reynolds. Weird.
Anyway the movie was okay but I had to speed through some of the dumb parts. All I could think about the entire last half was how much better it would have been if a Japanese person had written it, because then the alien would have turned into a sexy girl by the end instead of a weird monster. The Sony execs need to start pushing for more Jap sensibilities in the movies they produce, the masses are ready for it.

>>391569And Satan's Tango, it's 7 hours, and 1900, with Robert De Niro, 5 hours.
Also most of Tarkovsky's films seem to last 5 hours, even though only one of them, Andrei Rublev, has more than 200 minutes.
The guy is a genius, but you should not start with him.
Also Gettyburg, almost five hours about the battle at the American Civil War. There's an even longer sequel too with Robert Duvall (Tom Hagen from Godfather), but I haven't watched yet.
Oh, and my favorite filme of all time, The Human Condition trilogy. When you put them together as a single film (they way it is) it has 9 hours, as long as Lotr.
My favorite film of all time, Lawrence of Arabia, has around 3 hours and 40 minutes too. So do Ben-Hur (1959), Gone with the Wind, Ten Commandments, Cleopatra, among others.

Watched Last Jedi yesterday. It was bad. Not anywhere near as bad as TFA. Better than episodes I and II, but still bad.
The story is very lame and the jokes were cringy, but we had three large scale battles, the only SW movie to ever give us more than one large battle was episode III (Coruscant, Kashyyyk and Utapau).

Finished Battlestar Galactica yesterday. Just so fraking amazing I can't believe it's finished. It's just so beyond Star Wars, Star Trek or any other western sci fi series I've seen…
Honestly, that was great, just check the OST.

>>405813Historic revisionism printed the movie and helped nsjw college campus neo-Marxism gain it's roots in our culture. When the world needed a call for internal reawokeened faith the movie pretty much gave us heresy and apathy. It's still the closest thing we've gotten to anything decent in like 30 or more years relating to anything to the crusades in film history. I dont know if we are ever going to get something anything close let alone ever better in the next 100 years. Honestly.

I almost instwntly regreted buying 1999's "Hell"or "Japanese Hell". I'm not one to complain about Japanese fantasy movies depicting hell or rather East Asian fantasy movies depicting hell sue to the fact that they actually trybto portray a somewhat Christian message or a message tha vsurprisigly encourages repemtwnce with a christian appeal. Rhe biggest one of course being 1960's Jigoku. The actors and those involved in the film mention the Christian undertones to the story. However I cannot say the same thing for 1999's "Hell/Japanese Hell". I can't bring myself to watching the movie and want to get rid of it. The trailer alone comes off as if by show casing the horror of hellit intends for You to end up there one day by mere content the viewer is exposed to instead of inspiring you to change your ways. It's not something I will ever advocate watching to anyone. I saw series puppetry skills in a cut scenephoto and thought I'd buy it since the whole hell gerne out of East Asia onlycuaght my attention for puppetry. Possibly the second now horrific works from this otherwise great filmmaker.

If you deny an ultimate form of good than you also deny any evil to ever exist as well, which is not logical at all when it is clear evil does exist.
