Premium Member Jeff Bernstein Posted August 22, 2023 Premium Member Share Posted August 22, 2023 (edited) If anyone is interested in watching the rare Spielberg documentary (which now seems to be scrubbed from the Internet), I can post it for 24 hours (I assume). BUT I'm not bothering unless I get my image capability back. The historic Oppenheimer blast in months to come will appear here without a single image? At one point Spielberg looks into the camera and is obviously contractually forced to say : "I am filming a segment of Twilight Zone : the Movie." Imagine his vibe there. . . . Just imagine. . . . Because that's all you can do right now. . . . Edited August 22, 2023 by Jeff Bernstein Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eric Eader Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 Get Shorty And one I watched last night: A Paris Education; While not about Hollywood, it is about a French Film student in Paris with allusions to Hollywood movies. Rather slow, monochrome digital B&W photography (as in mostly gray, not much contrasting black), monotone dialogue, but always kept me guessing as to where it was going right up to the last frame. Interesting artistic choices and change of pace compared to Hollywood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eric Eader Posted September 18, 2023 Share Posted September 18, 2023 I hesitate to add this as I did not like it all, but: "The Lonely Lady" (1983), starring Pia Zadora as an aspiring screenwriter is set in Hollywood. Therefore it qualifies. Ugh! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Member Jeff Bernstein Posted November 1, 2023 Premium Member Share Posted November 1, 2023 Both De Palma and Scorsese said Scarface (1983) was about Hollywood. I think in the commentary to the film De Palma uses this point to explain Hollywood's original revulsion to the material. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
