Bill Burr on French Cinema

[@christorres7916]

I’ll never forget watching a Bill Burr podcast and he recommended A Prophet. I gave it a watch and was blown away. Never in a million years would I think Bill Burr would recommend a foreign masterpiece

excellent film. amazing performance from Tahar Rahim

This is why I know Bill Burr has a way to go - a critic is a person who adds information to your consuming of the media. A critic doesn't need to be negative - they just have to add a new dimension to your perception a media.

I still say anatomy of a fall in an OTT Bill voice whenever I see the movie on my shelf

[@alexcoyg3281]

Dobermann (1997) is one of the best fun french action movies

[@WalterBurton]

Bill gives me hope for the future of the humanities. Seriously.

“Samurai “ is cool. 😎

[@Torus2112]

Circle Rouge is an excellent heist movie.

[@whobitmyname]

That's the point of Irreversible... You watch the whole day play out in reverse knowing from the start what a horrible f-ed up scene is waiting for her.

[@jamesbrinner3678]

Alain Delon. Best film is arguably Le Samouraï. Were he was the first 'cool' hitman

[@SamL12345]

If it ain't Bill Hader, it's Bill Burr 🤣

Anatomy of a Fall not "Fail"

[@alexchernandez88]

Will be cool to hear him talk about Bresson when he gets to his filmography on criterion(mainly A man escaped, pickpocket and L'Argent)

[@jcole4517]

Agreed. I can see him laughing at Balthazar for the most part, but still be aware of what makes it effective. I think he knows it’ll be hard to sell that movie to others in his own words, to non-film people 😅 However, he’ll definitely rave about Pickpocket and A Man Escaped, and might skip Mouchette altogether, which would be criminal.

The Family (2013 film) --- co-written and directed by Luc Besson based on the French novel Malavita (Badfellas in the 2010 English translation) by Tonino Benacquista. Robert De Niro, Michelle Pfeiffer, Dianna Agron, John D'Leo, Tommy Lee Jones Filming took place in the locations of both Gacé and Le Sap in Normandy AWESOME . . . . . . . .

Hilarious title

[@slon911]

Bill is cool, makes good points

[@Heavenly.Harlot]

Look at ole Billy Frenchman ovah heeah

[@electricwizard3000]

Irreversible - the film every edgelord claims is brilliant.

[@WalterBurton]

Oof. Them fighting is too real. Some characters are almost gratuitously real to me. It feels like the writer 's gone too far. Like they're poking me. And I'm not talking about body drama stuff; taking a shit or whatever. No, just facade. It's as if the writer interrogated me in great detail about exactly how this or that person ... irked me ... and then they make me experience that personality again, fully realized. It's a terrible thing to do to a person. Which makes that writing so great. Those writers so great. Scaling that level of intimacy is no small thing. Obviously, first you have to notice it. This is not a subtweet of Skyler White.

You should see what the US Government did to the actress Seberg from Breathless because she donated money to the Black Panthers...thank Goodness for the USA being the world's moral authority

The Dog killed the husband because it was depressed that the kid tried to poison it
