This is from The Film Stage

“A cinematographer is a visual psychiatrist–moving an audience through a movie […] making them think the way you want them to think, painting pictures in the dark,” said the late, great Gordon Willis. As our year-end coverage continues, we must pay dues. From talented newcomers to seasoned professionals, we’ve rounded up the examples that have most impressed us this year.

Here's an excerpt >Although it could not have been planned that way, the forty-eighth Polish Film Festival will stand as one of the last cultural monuments of the outgoing far-right government that has ruled over the country since 2015. Along with socially intolerant and ultra-Catholic anti-immigration and anti-abortion policies, the Law and Justice party and its allies have promoted a version of Polish history that highlighted individual nationalist heroism, and downplayed, revised, distorted, or denied more awkward examples of collective complicity, such as the many historical instances of antisemitism in Poland. This promotion took many forms, from legislating against historical facts pointing to Polish participation in the Holocaust to removing dissident directors and curators from museums and other cultural centers. Most significantly in the context of the festival, the government promoted its worldview by controlling the finance of films and television.

Warner Bros. Discovery, NBCUniversal and Sony Pictures join forces with StudioCanal, soccer's English Premier League and the MPA to oppose new legislation that would end geo-blocking of film and TV content across the European Union.

Hello everyone,

Follow up from a thread I opened a month ago (https://discuss.tchncs.de/post/6090857)

The main issue I see with creating Movie Discussion threads in this community is that there is no way to link them in a megathread, as post links depend on your instance, and there is no way to have a link that would work for everyone (except relying on add-ons such as Instance Helper, but that's not idea). So for people to see them, you either need to have them pinned, cluttering the community, or you need to rely on people on finding them (e.g. adding a shortcut in the sidebar with a precreated search, however I don't know if that would work on mobile clients, and visibility wouldn't probably be the best).

One way to handle this would be to use another community dedicated to movie discussions threads, were only that type of content would be allowed.

There is currently !movies@lemm.ee that we do not currently use but that could fit that need.

What do you guys think?
