In Reply to: Movies with subtitles- how much is missed? posted by Bambi B on March 4, 2010 at 19:46:39:
Bresson was a master photographer so no doubt the reason you remember that part by heart.
I remember in " Au hazard Balthasar " one of the most erotic moment when Anne Wiazemsky is semi naked, the erotism between the eye ( Bresson ) and the object ( ! ) of desire is interacting so strong that its mark, indelible, will be engraved like letters made of fire on my retina.
Das Boot is just utterly German, in every moment it is. The whole mentality and way of being is.
Not one I love, but one I can contemplate from the distance between the action and me.
An excellent film and very true.
It may sound futile but when speaking of U boot films I love " Red October ", it just has that mix of action and solid craft I like.
So but back to subtitles.
The problem is you always will missing something. The spoken text which is always shortened as subtitles because of practical necessity, will divert you from the pictures, and trying to cope with both is an act of balance... Where I excel meanwhile...
But with time and repeated viewing you will soon delete more and more that script as you knows it by heart.
It will become more of a " canne " helping our semi blindness...
Opera houses like the one in Paris have started long ago to project the text upon the scene, which is distracting but useful.
Now we all have our own sensibility and way of interpretation for every work, which make it a kind of " Russian Roulette " as to really understand what the author in the end want us to share with us.r
Bu the poesy of a work will always shine through and that is what matter, the whole and to an lesser extend the details.
I see our ways are similar, that is also the reason why we can you and me communicate and feel the other.
Ah! " L´enfant Sauvage " was made to sound like in a classroom, like a scientist explaining to a given public the rational of an experience, hence the clarity for you.
YEs you put 100% like a lecture, I read.
One don´t want to miss the plot, but one may also has confidence, living his uncertainty to hell, and trust oneself.
Like a livret you once read and only retain the main lines.
Avatar will be a forgotten movie I would like to think, but made history, wrongly as an old concept, for 3D, just look at Titanic at King Kong how its visual impact are unbelievable now-days! And the script, poor as one can be, is just ´to laugh at.
Remember the silent days in movies?
That will be my answer.
PS: Yes Star Wars redux.
PPS: A Coffee anytime, and to no excuse, but with the uttermost pleasure.
Bonne Journée,
