funny that peter hitchens' journalism inspired people who neither read it nor understood it. podcasts with ""culturally christian"" nodding heads, hoping that someone will listen; but they never have and never will. many such cases. trapped between racialists and hyperliberals.
.@cfdownes We sixties veterans remember the US officer who destroyed a village in Vietnam 'in order to save it'. I doubt you have any clue what your ideas would mean in practice. Few teeenagers do. If you get your way, others will need to forgive you, for quite a lot.

sorry for conservaposting. his specific situation here struck familiar to me though in broad strokes. i remember watching his poetry recital as a child on a bbc political panel, and i agree with him more here than other culture writing (incl hitchens' own) youtu.be/BHoAQW_DBI4?si=JLYU…

since my tl is talking about 'ran'; honestly, this film has one of the most impactful title cards i've ever seen in a film. the pure energy and murderous intent in nakadai's eyes, the cut to symbolise the kill itself. no matter how many times i watch it i will never tire of it.

this is true. i also think of it as a generational shift. we're now no longer living in a world where blockbuster cinema is defined by spielberg etc., but the successors of their successors. we lose understanding of kurosawa's importance and formal mastery in the process
I get why A. Kurosawa has dimmed for some, at the very least because a plethora of Japanese masters have since been able to be more widely seen outside of Japan, but for me he's less dimmed than shown to be amidst an absolute embarrassment of riches.

broadly i don't like godard('s pre 68) work, but his images will remain unique whereas kurosawa's innovation has become so thoroughly absorbed by modern visual culture that you have to *actually* look at the images, an activity among film-watchers that's becoming rarer by the day

the most homoerotic experience most straight men get in their life is probably getting their hair cut
