I've always been a movie lover and have always been very good at picking what is good from what is not, but I always lacked the words to describe my choices. I think your 20-minute lesson provided me with the analytical terminology necessary to explain the Why behind my choices. I totally agree, some of these are not in my top 20 list, but they all illustrate really well the points you were trying to make. Well done.
@@TheMediaInsider12 Angry Men, The Matrix, Seven. 12 Angry Men because of how tension is built over time. The Matrix because of the revolutionary camera work and kick starting an existential discussion (changing public discourse and triggering a series of movies on the same topic). Seven because of how perfect every scene ties with everything else. Even the fact that the initial credits do not mention Kevin Spacey's name. There are many other movies, but I would be here all night. By the way, I am really happy that you asked.
This is silly. Saying you've "always been very good at picking what is good from what is not" is hilariously hoity-toity. Everyone is good at picking out what is good from what is bad... that's what makes movies good or bad: when lots of people agree that they are good or bad. Frankly, being proficient at film analysis has little to do with realizing some objective greatness of a film, and much more to do with appreciating its composition. Because, guess what, films do not have an objective greatness-only a subjective one. This is the beauty of art, and to say otherwise reveals only your naïveté.
Glad to see Children of Men on here. It’s one of my top five movies of all time. I love how it tells a story of a world without the need for exposition. Couple that with beautiful cinematography and it’s some of the main reasons I give it high praise.
This is so useful. I've always been interested in film, just as a hobby of course, and I'm so grateful to find so much good information for free. I am interested in film analysis because a lot of it could be applied to my other passions (and because it's fun) but I cannot justify formally studying it, so you putting this out there for anyone to enjoy and learn is so useful. Thank you so much.
So glad you are finding it useful, I have literally just posted a new video about film analysis in the last 24 hours and would love to hear what you think
Amadeus is also a fantastic example of adaptation. The stage play the film is based on is quite different in places, so as a screenwriter and editor it's valuable to understand why certain scenes were kept or changed or cut
Each platform requires very different technical and creative applications. You could just film a stage play and it is a filmed stage play. If you adapt it for cinema then it becomes very different.
It's great to watch this and learn about film studies. I didn't want to spend thousands of dollars at university on film studies classes. I get just as much value (if not more) from your film analysis for free.
It's great to see how much respect you have for people who literally studied films for 10 years at the highest level and designed an entire syllabus of around 15 weeks of class. If you think you got more value out of a 20mins video you are delusional.
Great essay. I love that you touched on a few obscure films, and of course several classics. 'Mise En Scene' is my favorite term, as a filmmaker myself.... not that that means much these days. LOL.

You ever regret learning to analyze films? You ever wish you could go back to a time where you were just mesmerized by a good movie without knowing why? Once you learn to break a film down into its component parts to analyze it's almost like you lose the ability to be immersed in the movie as a whole. Afterall the choices made behind the scenes are "behind the scenes" for a reason. Once you unmask the man behind the curtain you can no longer buy into the illusion. A bittersweet achievement.
That's an interesting point that I have been wondering myself recently as I am doing a course in Film Studies. I think you have might have a valid point there.
no not really. There is a period where one can be over analytical, or the analysis can either come between the movie and ones experience, or distort ones experience. However over time the analysis can sink below the surface allowing one to be an audience-person again... at least I feel that way
Watching 2001 was what got me interested in thinking ab what ppl were saying through film. I think that the monolith and the theme that goes with it inspire a sense of horror and I think it’s about the change of humanity. Each time the monolith appears, there is a massive time skip and a massive change in what Humans “are”. I think the fear is supposed to be the fear of change.
Looking back at the Mozart movie. Your video made me notice that it's from the perspective of Salieri (Don't know how to spell the name sorry). Maybe to his eyes, he's just a child, which is why he acts the way he does in the movie.
The original release was in 70mm 6 track magnetic sound - truly spectacular. A few aspects of the film were criticized but overall it is very solid.@@TheMediaInsider
This was very nice analysis, some great points for students and anyone wanting to learn more. Just a note that Biopic is short for Biographical Picture, and is pronounced Bio Pic, not Bi Opic. Not sure why people keep saying it incorrectly but I hear it from time to time. Thanks for the video!
A truly great work indeed, especially to watch as intended via 35mm film in a movie theatre. I screened a 35mm re-issue print many times. There's obviously thousands of films you could list in an analysis but for only 22 minutes we get a good cross section I think.
Thank you for this video and selection. Some films I never heard of (sound of metal) or other I want to re-watch (Amadeus). I have to say i’m not a lot into film analysis, I take some but more often I would leave a lot. For me if the director is not giving his real intentions on a scene every analysis is subjective. For example if someone says to me that «The Searchers» is a masterpiece I will respect that but at the same time I could give many points why I found the film over rated. But your video is not making too much, you give hints on how to see these elements that can create a film. Nowadays I found that moviegoers are analyzing every frame, every sequence, etc. it’s too much.
Absolutely agree! I think the key is to find the thing you enjoy analysing, be it cinematography, the narrative, the characters, the art direction, or a bit of all of it!
so inappropriate to show a sequence from the Lord of the Rings to reference some "movies just being a visual experience [...] and less about narrative".
How is that inappropriate? That's the main complaint of Peter Jackson's films, relying too much on flashy cgi instead of narrative. Tolkiens family disown the Jackson films for that very reason.
This is a great list. I appreciate the inclusion of a few non-american films, but also a bit dissapointed at how american this list looks, but also I understand that we would need a much bigger list to talk about all the amazing films out there.
Weird to see Horse girl among these other movies... But made me think about rewatching it. I didn't like it at all when I saw it. (Me sorprendió mucho ver Horse girl en esta lista de buenas películas... No me gustó nada la vez que la vi pero este video me hace pensar en volver a verla, pero con otros ojos esta vez.)
I do know what you mean! But remember, these aren’t necessarily the greatest films of all time, or even ones which I loved, but they do illustrate something, and the discombobulation in this film was very effective!
These are great examples of movies and how subsets of movie depiction can be broken down in to analysis. However, in all honesty i did not learn film analysis here.
butch cassidy and the Sundance kid, the girl that acts in "the graduate" to, so I think you missed that movie to. // Children of the men is something that some cultures nowadays have started to deal with like korea.
Hello sir, my name is Mahdi and i want to apply for M.A in cinema and media related courses in UK but i have some questions about it, including the A.I impacts on these fields in future. would you please tell me how can I talk to you about it? I'm sure it would be helpful for others as well.
If you're still curious, these are the new guidelines that resulted from the writers strike: "The new agreement states that AI shall not write or be credited for literary material. Additionally, material created by artificial intelligence shall not take credit or copyright from screenwriters. According to the agreement, screenwriters can use artificial intelligence when providing writing services, but only with the consent of production partners, and they cannot be compelled to use AI. Studios must disclose to writers if AI-generated material is used, and using scripts by writers to train AI is prohibited". This only affects hollywood right now but will likely become industry standard. If you're intimidated by AI I would say there is nothing to really worry about. Art is about human expression and the experience of life which is impossible for AI to create since it has not lived. People will always have a greater appreciation for storytelling that is authentic and genuine. Unless they're brainwashed or something.
There was a 1992 movie called The Player where a studio gets bought out by a Japanese conglomerate, and as part of cost cutting someone comes up with the idea to remove writers from the creative process and base movies on newspaper stories.@@sebastianmontano9979
Not mentioning a david lean picture is not good. it's not like lawrence of arabia inspired most of the filmmakers like spielberg etc.. also haven't seen any scorsese film aswell. How can Christopher Nolan be there but not David lean looool or even tarantino. Just the intro alone of inglorious bastard is a copy paste of the intro from the good the bad and the ugly
Excellent point! My primary focus was picking films that illustrate aspects of film analysis, rather than most culturally significant films, but I’m very aware I’ll have to make another video asap
@TheMediaInsider well again spielberg said that after watching lawrence of arabia he started to analyze and tried to comprehend how that film was made with the magnificent 70mm shots etc... most of the well known directors based they're work on the classics. Lean, Hitchcock, John huston, Corman etc...ua-cam.com/video/kSMk4d-cJqY/v-deo.htmlsi=rVaBouBWGUPjz8cR
Dude, you've had years to watch these, and most of these are extremely well known. It's safe to assume most people watching here would've seen most of these movies, otherwise, why the hell are you here? If you're too lazy to know even the most basic shit, that's on you. And how the hell did he give anything away on any of them, and what the fuck did you expect? You somehow expect him not to analyze movies in a video on movie analysis?
Some input. Dont want this on my feed. It all denotes their places of inscription. All of them their proper nouns. Their proper nouns. There is nothing nor other things being said. "Of all time" is something that does hold in their proper noun sense.
I'm happy that I have seen many of these films, but saddened that Tarantino is in here. I understand that you like him but I can't stand the way he markets cynicism to an already cynical audience.
I agree that Snowpiercer is not as good, perhaps Bong's worst film. It's in Parasite that Bong finally figured out how to fully convey his message about social classes more effectively.
Seriously though... 2001: A Space Odyssey is a massive waste of time! Most overrated junk ever! It has the slowest scenes ever, it's slow and boring and dull and the story goes nowhere and ends up in an absurd gargantuan baby floating in space with zero context to explain it. As a narrative, it's not good. It will never be good. Everyone knows it's not good, but they have an emperor's clothes attitude towards it. Anyone saying it's good is either high on drugs or is trying to prove something.
Interstellar is not a masterpiece in any sense of the world. Love can travel through time and space bullshit, to bad exposition scenes to explain basic stuffs to non-science background people to a poem being repeated a dozen times, in certain timestamps, it becomes unwatchable. I am not being harsh but for me Dunkirk, The Prestige, Dark Knight, Inception, and especially Memento are way superior pieces of cinema.
Not harsh at all - everyone is entitled to their opinion! I love everything Nolan has ever made, but for me, Interstellar communicated some huge ideas and used every aspect of the medium - music, cinematography, performance - to convey the relationship between him and his daughter so well. II think it really spoke to me as a Dad as well as a film fan.
Film appreciation is as subjective as there are personality types. We all see things a bit differently. What is a masterpiece to someone is not liked at all by someone else.@@TheMediaInsider
Bro be like: "I'll show you how to learn film analysis. But I'll just name a 20 films and vaguely describe what tropes are they most known for, with zero to little analysis of my own." Most of the people already know those movies and probably why they are special, with better knowledge about it than described. What a bore.
Mate if you’re going to put up film analysis reduce it to a few and expand. Your content on each of these movies is very sparse. Very disappointing. I only comment constructively hoping you’ll listen and try do more dense content. For instance a whole episode dedicated to Psycho would be better than the sparse 20.
Thanks for the feedback: I suppose my argument would be that this is very light touch as it’s intended as a jumping on point for new film analysts. I totally agree that each of these films deserves a 15 minute analysis, but those are different videos. Check out my video analysis of Burch Cassidy and the sundance kid - I think that’s more what you were looking for. Thanks for watching and leaving feedback.
Agree - this is not intended to be an in depth analysis - it is an introduction to analysis using a non-definitive selection of films - we can all list hundreds of favourite films. And each one of those can take hours of analysis. Can't see how there are complaints about this video.@@TheMediaInsider
Guardians of the Galaxy vol 2 has the best story, characters, dialogue, pacing, editing, tone and cinematography and set design of any movie shown in this video.

Wonderful video! Perhaps a little slip-up: at 15:59, I think you may have meant "allegories" instead of "analogies."

Film appreciation is as subjective as there are personality types. We all see things a bit differently. What is a masterpiece to someone is not liked at all by someone else.@@TheMediaInsider
Bro be like: "I'll show you how to learn film analysis.
But I'll just name a 20 films and vaguely describe what tropes are they most known for, with zero to little analysis of my own."
Most of the people already know those movies and probably why they are special, with better knowledge about it than described. What a bore.
Mate if you’re going to put up film analysis reduce it to a few and expand. Your content on each of these movies is very sparse. Very disappointing. I only comment constructively hoping you’ll listen and try do more dense content. For instance a whole episode dedicated to Psycho would be better than the sparse 20.
Thanks for the feedback: I suppose my argument would be that this is very light touch as it’s intended as a jumping on point for new film analysts. I totally agree that each of these films deserves a 15 minute analysis, but those are different videos. Check out my video analysis of Burch Cassidy and the sundance kid - I think that’s more what you were looking for. Thanks for watching and leaving feedback.
Agree - this is not intended to be an in depth analysis - it is an introduction to analysis using a non-definitive selection of films - we can all list hundreds of favourite films. And each one of those can take hours of analysis. Can't see how there are complaints about this video.@@TheMediaInsider
I've known more than a few women how possessed the male gaze. And men who have the female gaze.

Guardians of the Galaxy vol 2 has the best story, characters, dialogue, pacing, editing, tone and cinematography and set design of any movie shown in this video.
Say "literally" one more time.
