Why, something familiar?

@somethingaboutthemovies5116 what's the connection with this one? They don't seem to have anything in common...

@@kinghailz786 In my view they do, although I'm always careful and not completely sure of my observations and therefore I put them out in the world to see if there's anybody else who has this kind of connecting experience. If I could say it better I should have made a better video, but I think it's clear enough, depending of course on the viewer. Thanks for the question anyways.

@somethingaboutthemovies5116 so what? The fact that both kids ride on something indoors? That it's snowy outside. That Kevin and his mum share the "shining" power.. etc? Please try and include you points in the video so we know what it is you see first. And if there's any additions, we can add on.

@@kinghailz786 Clear. I will save this in the back of my mind. Thank you.

Cool that you say this. I don't really want to break rules or something, like that would be my main goal; but idd I do feel this is the most free form to me.

Thanks, appreciated.

Vielen Dank für Ihre Schriften.

Unalived?

That's the best way to watch. I found this montage somewhere on the timeline of an old project. I almost deleted it, glad I didn't do it. Thanks for your writings.

What hesitation do you mean?

@@somethingaboutthemovies5116 The slight pause in the music, then the resumption at full volume.

...1:56

@@thesprawl2361 Okay, then I misunderstood you. That pause in the music - if you mean the "hesitation" in the music during the black frames - that one was just already in the music. But I thought it turned out well, so I left it in. Cool you noticed this.

@@thesprawl2361 Okay I see, thanks.

This bothers you, huh. I honestly think your imagination on CE3K is pretty cool in some sense. I heard a statement the other day, written by Nicole Kidman for the people at the Venice International Film Festival this year: "The collision of Life and Art is heartbreaking." I don't know, this popped up when I went through your writings. This problem in my view is timeless and repeated through Spielberg's (and Kubrick's) work on and on and on.

Your comment was hidden due to possible offensive language. That is why it has only now been published. I find the line of text very fascinating when seen along this video. Thanks.

Just squeeze out the first thing that comes up with you when you're seeing 12-13-14. I'd be interested to know what would be.

Thanks for your writings.

@@somethingaboutthemovies5116 You're welcome. These videos are very cool.

Also, apologies if I freaked you out with the collaboration suggestion I posted on a previous video. You didn't answer(you might not have seen it tbf) but I thought it was worth a try. I've been looking for someone with an eye for beautiful visuals and for the kind of elegant free-association of imagery I love so much, for whom I could compose music, and then release it online. You have taste in films too. I have a vague memory of a conversation in a comment thread of yours a while back, where I was quite pretentious and garrulous, and rambled on and on about the creative process, and you attempted to explain how you come up with your videos. And a few months later I thought 'he/she/they were interesting, and their videos are stunning, so let me at least reach out.'. Anyway, there's your explanation for the sudden, out-of-the-blue comment I left on another video. It must've seemed a bit...I don't know. I don't think these things through that much before I do them, I just do them. Cheers, I do genuinely think these videos should have many times more views. They're gorgeous. And, frustratingly for me, the music's always perfectly chosen. So it's not like I can make the argument that 'well, your videos look good, but damn the music is _rubbish_ and you need someone else's songs playing over them.'. The music is always spot-on. Still, I think it could be very interesting to collab if you ever feel like it. Have a nice day, and I'll stop typing now, and will probably delete this reply later so it's not on show for everyone in embarrassing fashion.

@@thesprawl2361 Oh, I didn't see that comment. Which video was that? If you want, you can contact me at: pipovanelli@gmail.com

The Speculation and the Evolution lines are taken out of the book Creative Evolution by Henri Bergson. There's enough context in this book. Hmm, "who or what", that's a good one. I personally think that the Form line is about how to be really different.

the POINT of view, as in the BIT of the axe. Jesus Christ, I never even thought about this. Thank you.

@@somethingaboutthemovies5116 😀😉

Is there something with "42-Shell-Concave"?

youre not dumb its pretty random

I'd say, just take from it what's attracting, that's how I watch movies. Then I try to understand the attractions by making these videos about them.

..make it Suntorrance Time (?)

Keitel was *not* in Tom's role!

@stepha5926 I discovered that after posting, but, I still think the point stands

@@_scabs6669 well don't forget they are actors! And while Tom may or may not be greedier and more of a sociopath in real life than Harvey Keitel, I think Harvey absolutely could pull off that kind of a role!

@stepha5926 right, the old "they are actors after all." Many ppl forget that. Keitel is acting in this very interview. BUT. Many directors say that it's more about casting than acting. Get somebody who already has the look and the persona you're going for for the character. Say action and they can be themselves in front of the camera, you never have to direct. Of course Kubrick was much much much to nth degree more detailed than this, but it's true to a point with any production. Kubrick needed somebody who was a little dead inside. Doing that many takes weeds out the ones who have life in their eyes, or kills it. I think that's kind of what he was going for in a way.

Not how I would direct but I can understand a facet of the process I hope

He might be underrated but he's not a 'genius'. He's just an actor.

This is seriously some thing to think about. Thank you.

He only does that to certain actors - and very debatable whether it's actually bullying or not. In The Shining, he did it to Scatman and to Shelley - *NOT to Nicholson.* In Eyes Wide Shut, he did it to Tom Cruise and Keitel - *NOT to Nicole.* Maybe he had a thing for people with Nicole or Nichols in their name 🤔

@@stepha5926 yeah I’m just making a joke that the worst take of the movie was Nicole Kidmans forced laughter

then my problem is that i'm doubting pareidolia.

Nice insinuation about Keitel's appearance 😆

@@stepha5926 I mean come on!! He’s naked in almost every movie 🤣

@@quarantinebored1427 he is? All I remember is the 2 Tarantino films, & the 2 Scorsese films.

@@stepha5926 he was definitely shirtless in a few movies in the early 70s and 90s. Even in a wes Anderson film, he was shirtless haha

@@quarantinebored1427 no shit? 😆 I'll never look at him the same again!

Thank you for sharing this and being so open. I feel sorry for the losses you have had to experience. I just have no words for this. For what it's worth, I saw some (very simplified) similarities between your problems to walk around and my 'learning to walk again' recovery process, although that's some time ago. It also showed me that their are real people behind the accounts. Also, I feel I cannot reply in a proper way, because I'm on vacation, but I had to reply to this. And yes, I think movies, as you say, have a certain quality, that give you the possibility to relate to it in a most personal way. Again, thank you for the share. Most appreciated.

Only to respond to what movie was the opening from and the last shot. You mean the first used shot? That's from Eraserhead. The last shot is Blue Velvet. Btw, what you said about "therapy" stuck with me. It says a lot. Thanks.

Thanks for getting in touch. It's funny but yesterday I was gonna inquire as to when u were going to put something new up. I've really missed your vids. I've tried actual therapy several times but they've never worked. I never get to what's wrong and typically just have a conversation about movies really. The last time I tried after my life and body fell apart I didn't like the therapist. She came off like a snooty bitch to me. I was and still am perplexed at how events I actually see are described in the news as the literal opposite. The joke is Trump broke it all in someway it's his greatest accomplishment. He revealed the Left are authoritarian fascists the Right are Rino do nothing get alongs and the media gaslights us on everything either lying or just hiding stories. It's gotten me to the point where even historians are gaslighting and lying on current historical events. So if there can't be widespread agreement on the Trump near assassination and that he was shot when u have Wray the FBI head who under testimony state that he didn't know if Trump was shot how is any historical event to be trusted that it was presented truthfully. I love history but now I kinda refer to it as historical fiction. If I didn't literally experience it how the hell do I know it happened. Sorry for the tangent. I've read and have watched several interviews saying therapy isn't very helpful but just keeps people bemoaning their lives and not living it. It's the true problem with every generation after GenX imo. Also, therapy is great for the industry in that you're never well enough to stop. In these articles and vids. doctors say that the old adage of just get over it or the sports axiom.of rub some dirt on it and get back in the game is far better that rehashing your Mommy issues or playground bully problems. Again, sorry for the free flow of shite. Guess u can see hoe this is kinda my therapy. One question I hope you'll answer for me about this vid. Who is the little girl in the thumbnail and what movie is it from. The vid has her early in the vid walking thru a church. That's what I was questioning. Where is that from. Thanks again for letting me lie down on your couch and please upload something soon. I miss your work. Take care,Jeff

@@jeffreysmith694 Thanks once again for your writings, it always has a nice cadence and blended very much to the point. I see what you mean, as far as I can see. About the girl in the video. That's from the musicvideo "Hey Boy Hey Girl" from "The Chemical Brothers". About new activities, I rather never speak about that (not that you asked but anyways) , like in "My Big Fat Greek Wedding 3" , they say something like: never talk about it, cause it brings bad luck. All the best.

I see. It was intended from a cinematic point of view.

Seriously? Never knew.

@@somethingaboutthemovies5116 Never thought I'd give u some Kubrick knowledge that u didn't know already. That u connected Close Encounters and used Carey Guffey was just kismet I guess. In hindsight I'm so glad Kubrick used Danny Lloyd instead. He worked so well because he was an unknown. If Carey were used instead all u would think about would be Close Encounters and it would have taken the audience out of the movie imo.

@@jeffreysmith694 I don't think I know that much about Kubrick. I'm attracted to his makings. And then the trouble starts. Btw, where could I find the source about the relationship between Guffey and The Shining, as you said. This thing completely escaped me.

I​@@somethingaboutthemovies5116 More than likely I saw a UA-cam clip on it. I just googled Cary Guffey and The Shining and got several articles on it so it's not something new. He was the 1st choice of Kubrick but his parents found the source material too questionable so Kubrick than had a country wide search for Danny Torrance. One of the articles was interesting. It had the recommendations that King had for the movie and how he was so upset with who Kubrick wanted to cast. King had Wendy as a blonde cheerleader type and u couldn't get any more polar opposite than that with Duvall. Nicholson was the 1st choice for Jack but Robin Williams and even Harrison Ford were Kubrick's picks. King had a suggestion of Jon Voight for Jack and that would have been an interesting choice imo. One of my favorite bits of trivia for The Shining is the way Kubrick used the VW Bug to put King in his place. In the book the car is red but in the movie it was a pale yellow. When Scatman is driving through the blizzard he can be viewed passing an accident in the snow. It was a semi truck jackknifed and overturned crushing a red VW Bug underneath it. It was a subtle not so subtle message to King to just stfu. Yes, Stephen u wrote the book but this is the movie and it's Kubrick's vision and not yours. I always have loved that and I lmao whenever I get to that part in the movie. It took me a while to completely warm to your site. At first I was hit or miss with it. Either I got what u were doing or was just confused. I has to learn to just groove with it and enjoy it for what it was. I have to say I'm probably 50/50 with understanding your intent but I'm never bored and visually they are all quite interesting. I gotta stop 💋 your ass so much. I tend to do it at the conclusion of most of my replies to u. As always looking forward to whatever comes out of that head of yours dealing with the Master.

@@jeffreysmith694 Thanks for your answer again. I just looked it up regarding Cary Guffey and The Shining and it is indeed on Wikipedia, which I think is a reliable source, so thanks again for sharing this connection. It's interesting because CE3K appears to be a Kubrick favorite. I never heard Kubrick himself say it. By the way, it's strange that you mentioned Wendy on the day she died. I read a short article yesterday about her and in particular The Shining was mentioned a lot and (of course) the way Kubrick dealt with her. It did something to me. And then I really start thinking about what priorities you have when you make a film. Would I go that far if I were to direct a film? No. Do you happen to have any thoughts on that?

Thanks for your nice energy transfer. As always.
