No one expected her to be this good...

The thing I notice about geniuses, is that they always have common themes that they know very well, expressed in their works.

[@coreyhoward4397]

Nail on the head, but it does make me wonder if they're kinda doomed to be repeating themselves in many ways. I've been at least kinda curious about looking into non commercial chameleon directors who can have really found was to seem to speak with someone else's voice.

Corey Howard someone like Rob Reiner fascinates me. Directed maybe 3 very well known, beloved films, all in completely different styles (and some stinkers too)

[@dunkyourdonuts2282]

somehow, I've literally never watched a Sofia Coppola film, but this video made me want to. I googled her inspirations for "Lost in Translation" after seeing the snippets here and wasn't surprised that she named Wong Kar Wai! The color grading, the cinematography and movement (maybe since tokyo and HK are quite similar cities as well) reminded me a lot of Chungking Express!

[@jassemmanuel7558]

You should have included her last film The Beguiled, it was such a great attempt in her filmography. Love Sofia Coppola

[@Indietrix]

It's a really fascinating film; I like how she uses the adaptation to shift the focus more onto the women of the story. It's sort of like a mirror to The Virgin Suicides; there a group of teen boys observe a group of girls, while in The Beguiled a group of women observe a man. Unfortunately there's only so much space in a video!

Indietrix Film Reviews i mean that’s understandable however it’s problematic when you know that it takes place during the civil war of the confederate south and it leaves out a lot of the heavy racial context that was referenced and important in the original novel and Clint Eastwood film, especially the black female slave character, Hattie, who’s considered the most complex and overall best written character in the story.

[@jassemmanuel7558]

Indietrix Film Reviews exactly! The new perspective she achieved with her version of the film was pretty singular and I like what you say about how it’s a mirror to The Virgin Suicides, I never noticed about that

Sofia Copolla. One of the best Woman Film Director in this world.

[@elleyeah746]

No, one of the best directors period.

[@Kamandi1971]

Any tips on how to identify an auteur’s style through visual observations?

Rumor in Hollywood is Steven Spielberg died 😢

[@marcjenson9902]

i love her films

[@oglifeline1005]

i just cant connect with her movies but some of the concepts are so alike to what i think of myself when writing. so in a way she is a blessing and lesson to me in what not to do. or at least what i would prefer not to.

[@desireandfire]

sofia coppola is one of those directors who's movie concepts are GOOD but they don't EVER hit well as you'd want them to because she's not talented much

[@merewang3287]

maybe she intended to do so

[@soonsuicidal]

Is she not that good or people just foesnt get her style... it may not be appreciated now but who knows the next generation will appreciate her.

[@chipmunkpark8826]

Pff maybe you aren't smart enough to understand her movies. Go watch MCU garbage🤣

[@toxic1strike167]

I’d disagree. They’re meant to be quiet and intimate, but big and loud. Maybe that’s why you don’t find yourself liking them, but I adore a lot of her work

[@jordanwebster1728]

@@chipmunkpark8826 saying someone isn't smart enough is ignorant, prove him wrong with her films, she's a good director.

[@SarisChannel18]

Sofia Coppola, riding high on her father's connections, and name, mostly in general public obscurity, is peak current Hollywood. Her most famous movie: Lost In Translation, is not even Bill Murray's best movie, or even his second best, and if you count Caddyshack and Kingpin.. it's not even a top 5. If you believe she deserved her Oscar you bought the publicity machine's hype.

[@miabortion]

not true, her style of filmmaking is inherently female, quiet, and intimate often leaving things implied and unsaid. u probably just enjoy a more masculine style of storytelling which is fine but it doesnt make hers bad. Im a teen girl and the way she portrays concepts and themes is top tier and thats probably cause her directorial sense is automatically thwarted in the demographic of artistic teenage girls. I watched the godfather movies and i always thought they werent anything to be hyped up about but thats probably cause im a girl but that doesnt make it an objectively shitty movie franchise

[@SarisChannel18]

@@miabortion Females aren't all quiet, or understate their feelings. Subtlety isn't just a female trait. If you're lulled into that type of thinking you'll find it hard to escape when bad situations calls for it. Yes, the Godfather movies are overrated. Sofia will always be overrated and a product of family connections in the showbiz industry.
