If one person got this, I'm already happy! That is, in my opinion, the main strength of the film. As someone who knows Lisbon quite well, because I lived there for a year, it's insane how well the...

The copy I own (which is in portuguese with no subtitles, starts 1:06 before that, but it's basically warnings against pirating. The first scene of the film is that one.

Vertigo (1958)

American Movie (1999)

So... This will be a pretty unpopular write-up, I guess.

I watched American Movie for the first time for the Doc HoF some years ago. I didn't love it, but I also didn't...

Yes, I ended up using Stremio, which is a cool platform and the sound was ok. As for the subs, I always use subtitles if it's Shakespeare. The text is so rich that even if English is your native...

Les dimanches de Ville d'Avray (1962)

Does anyone have a link to Sundays and Cybelle?

And what about Chimes at Midnight with a good sound quality? I just tried watching it and I can't understand a word.

Quite a solid adaptation of a book that remains painfully up-to-date.
The whole film is powered by the dynamic of the duo Laughton (God, what an actor) and March. Didn't...
