Wonderful.

Best movie I watched this year and this video is one of my favorites on the movie. Thank you.

thank you, man! this video helped me a lot with my research for uni

great video man

I love movies and they entertain me and I love the history of film. It just is so interesting. I wanna analyze films, but I am a little slow. I have autism and ADHD and I wasn’t properly educated. A lot of the words you said here went over my head. Is there some help for someone that struggles with reading and writing but loves film? I want to understand them better, what makes them good, what makes them bad, and why I like them. I just have a hard time. Thank you for your video!

Hi Zac, I emailed you regarding an urgent help required. I really hope you reply back soon. Regards, Yubasana

Thank you. Super useful 👏🏻

NICE......

very helpful and impressive video! thank you! seems like a must see place for cinephiles

does anyone know if United States of America (1975) is on physical media?

THANK you for this video !!! so helpful. Lots of love from Rome, just wanted to visit cinecitta with my mother ;-)

Excellent, sir. Excellent. "Time is extremely hard to nail down because we're always here in the same moment. I don't know if time even exists."

Hello Zachary, I want to know if I can use some glimpse of your video for making a documentary about a video game made in Italy. You will be obviously credited. Thanks ^^

I'm here in 2024 bc I'm interested in film preservation. I'm 40 and only have a G.E.D. My fear tells me I'm not good enough, I'm not smart enough, I'm not rich enough. Also that I'm too old. But my heart tells me that old films are my passion and I'd love nothing more than to do my part in saving them. Here's hoping I get to achieve my dream career. God bless 🙌

great video! Congrats!

This was an amazing analysis thank you. I have a question - how does the aesthetic personality (i.e. Jesse) go about adopting an ethical personality? Should they even do so, or would that result in resentment so instead they should go about life embracing that aesthetic immediacy without the pressures of familial life?

This was great, thank you!

I hate starting a yt vid and hearing a british "person" smh

thinking of taking creative writing or film study for this spring. I'm already taking 211 writing so I don't think I wanna deal with anymore writing and film studies seems fun. I already have background in creating videos as self taught so I think this could help with that. We will see

Regarding your claim about "the partial visualization of HAL: Hyper-acousmatization" in the end, 'I suggest looking at 'acousmachine' in his book The Voice in Cinema page 42.

thank you, excellent work

rich in depth analysis and well cited. Impressive video. I am becoming a big fan of Benning as I became interested in his work last year in my freshmen year in film school. One film i recommend for anyone who lives in the united states is James Benning - the United States of America(2021). That was the first film i got into. To quote your video which will be the amazing way I will explain why anyone and why I enjoy Benning's work-- "The sheer length of each shot presents an exercise in perception. The closer you pay attention, the more information you will glean. This is a vital dimension of benning's films and a way in which he strives to challenge his viewers ways of looking and listening. Once this challenge has been accepted and met halfway and an endlessly enriching viewing experience soon follows !!!!"

Thanks a lot. Short and simple yet not too compressed summary of Chion's idea. Would love more quotes but maybe that's just me.

Thank you very much sir😊😊

Hey Zach, i’m an undergraduate from the US majoring in film studies and my school has a partnership with Oxford where it may be possible for me to receive my masters upon graduating. If possible, would you be able to have a short conversation about your time in the program?

Thanks for video, but I can't help being the one to point out that you are pronouncing it wrong, over an over, it's Cine Città, and that accent is there for a reason. Blimey!

The video really helps me a lot, thank you so much

Brilliant video! Thank you for organizing and presenting these ideas in such a clear way! Makes me appreciate philosophy even more!

Amazing video! I used this to help me with my humanities class, and it was a total godsend.

Amazing overview, love the ambiance and the voice, thanks for your work! M

really great video

True! Everytime I tell others about my major they will like "oh so you will be a director!"😅

Have an espresso or some sugar

One of my all timers

The slides are really great. I can learn from this when I am preparing for my PQA.

This is a great video but the flashing lights made it so hard to watch.

Went on a tour of the museum the other day, and the films after. Well worth a visit.

Great analysis

Thanks for the informative film. I can strongly recommend a visit and great to see Martin and Ronald still working hard to keep the museum going.

gorgeous stuff man, keep up the incredible work. this is really inspiring

Thank you so Much

James Dean 1955 - Porsche spyder 550 - he wa stopped for speeding in a 55 mph limit, he was been Followed by a 1955 Ford County Squire Station wagon pulling a trailer ! Also just watched KZbin video - James Dean's Spyder...Found? SEE 22 seconds says Serial number of car 550-0055-

hi, found this really interesting, and showed it to film students which was a great help in them grasping the topic, however, the background changing colors is very distracting and hard to watch

This a a degree for an entry level barista.

Great video! thank you so much for this💙

I wanna say, this is amazing! im trying to reorient into cinema and this video (and your blog) have such a simple and organic way that makes me hopeful! please keep going:)

I wonder how much of that standing "ROME" set was salvaged/retained from the Roman Forum set of CLEOPATRA, 1963.

I feel like Jesse is a narcissist and Celine is a realist who outgrows her infatuation with him once they actually live together.

One thing I noticed about Jesse is that he is quietly controlling and passive aggressive. That’s why Celine eventually finds him unbearable by the third movie. I think you captured that very well in this analysis.

Sir, I'm from Kolkata (Calcutta) India, the city of Satyajit Ray and Rabindranath Tagore. I'm right now persuing in M.A Film Studies at Jadavpur University. I want to get an admission in The University of Oxford at Film Asthetics Course (MSt). So can you please tell me the eligibility criteria of an international student specially for Indian students for the admission? Love From Kolkata, India. ❤️💯
