Under the Influence: Mike Mills on Ermanno Olmi

[@flyboy1c]

I love your insight on Il Posto. It took a week to finish and at first it seemed anti-climactic, but after considering the viewport of an immersion into mundane adulthood and repressed inner passions... it's fantastic. Thank you for taking the time.

I am ditto to the point w/ Mike Mills exactly on these 2 films - Olmi is extraordinary, my favorite Italian neo-realist & creator of some of the most delicate, subtle, lovely, humanistic scenes and films ever made.

just saw "il posto" today and fuck, what an incredible film.

[@bkool24]

love both filmmakers and I definitely see/feel the influence

God bless Criterion. Another filmmaker I need to check out.

[@ToxicSpiker]

Good stuff Criterion! The Tree of Wooden Clogs and The Profession of Arms are also among my Olmi favorites.

I've been looking for Olmi's films but I can't find them! I hope some kindhearted soul or souls upload them on KZbin with English subtitles one day

IL POSTO and I FIDANZATI in a Blu-Ray Boxset? Please Criterion!
