Recently, my favorites have been In time, truth or dare & dorian grey. I haven't watched your movies. I'll study that. For 7 psychopaths I think Farrell won't do better than phone booth.

Downloading (In time)..
As to farrell, this movie has a number of great actors & the story is soo good & funny, unlike his action flicks which I don't like.
The rarity of  recent entertaining action movies had me drawn to comedy.
+ there is nothing better than lmao to sleep after a long day at work.

For me In time really is the movie of the decade. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rAo19BkP1H0
Still, the CGI is a little weak sometimes. Before I chose equilibrium, it really is good too.

Equilibrium was great. It imagines the world minus an important component of life (emotions), a plot that's very similar to 1984.

There are also Fahrenheit 451, the world without books.
Children of Men depicts the world without any more child births.

These movies & any good stories similar are a must watch. Thank god our reality is a bit better.  :)

Naahh.. that's not for me. I like action movies with plenty of shooting, or horror movies with ghosts and stuff like that. Also, plenty of sex, violence and gore.  :)

If you've seen any good ones lately then your recommendations are appreciated.
I haven't seen a worthwhile horror/thriller/action movie these past few years with a few exceptions.
For this I've turned to a bunch of tv shows that compensate such as (The walking dead, game of thrones, spartacus, arrow, breaking bad, etc..).

Here's a quick question: when you guys download movies, do you watch them on your computer or on your TV? If you watch them on your TV, what method do you use? In my case if I want to see a video on the TV, you can right click the file and play on the TV, and it's all through LAN - there is no HDMI connection to the TV.

lately the best movie I've watched is probably dorian gray. I read its the unique novel of oscar wilde.
Recently I visited him to the pere lachaise. The glass barrier has been erected to withstand the riots of its fans. I would dream of having such a tomb, though Im wondering if this Egyptian style is adapted to oscar wilde:

I watch everything on my laptop.. even though I have an hdtv + the cable..

I downloaded the Dorian Gray movie as soon as you recommended the book.. Will watch it soon.. Reading literature is not my thing, non-fiction is much more enjoyable, preferably self-help, thought, history and such.  I've heard a lot about Alphonso De Lamartine lately, especially his work (History of Turkey). Will probably read that or at least skim through it.
http://archive.org/search.php?query=lamartine%20turkey%20AND%20mediatype%3Atexts

Wonder if he has a similar tomb?

Latest movies I've seen:

Man of Steel, Iron Man 3, and The Croods at the theaters.. 3D is an amazing experience. Once in a lifetime at least - a must.
Assault on Wallstreet - A good movie but the violence is just horribly too much?
Olympus has Fallen & White House Down - unrealistic & insulting to the viewers intellect.
They Live (1989 I think) a great movie very symbolic, a lot of lines from the movie were plagiarized in a certain pc game.
Evil Dead - Not bad.

Hey Scarface! I noticed the .mkv movie files on your PC. Do you watch the movies on your computer or on your TV? I'm asking because in my case, the movies I've downloaded that can be viewed on the TV from a flashdrive are .mp4 (X264), .avi or .aac. The TV won't play .mkv unless I convert it first. Other than a short clip, I much prefer to sit back and watch on the TV.

Since these files are Blu-Ray rips, I was going to ask how would you burn them to a BD. I'm seeing Burnaware also does this. I just checked and it was ready to burn one of my files to a BD disk, I just don't have one - nor a Blu-Ray burner either.  :)

Title: Re: good movies
Post by: scarface on July 29, 2013, 12:59 AM
I have no TV, its keeping me from becoming grumpy and silly and no dvd drive nor bluray drive (so I watched movies on my laptop, I don't do it any longer because I don't have the time). I just store them on a usb key. there is no difference between mkv & mp4 they are just containers.

to aa1234779: try "truth or dare", "the moth diaries" or "claustrofobia" (dutch). you shouldn't be disappointed. if you want a french movie, try le chomeur de clochemerle (1957), though I'm not sure you'll find subtitles.

lol

aa1234779 that can't hurt a fly doesn't enjoy violence at all. A horror or action movie that is great has to be realistic, so the violence just comes with the package, not a joy in its self.

BTW, the " les aventures de rabbi jacob" was quite funny..

This is a good site to dig into..

I know aa1234779 is mystic, I couldn't recommend a violent movie. There are scenes of violence, but overall the movie is great. Watch It and tell me.
Title: Re: good movies
Post by: aa1234779 on December 19, 2013, 04:44 AM
Against cruelty - humane maybe but not mystic whatever you mean by it :D
I can watch anything but there is no point in seeking out violent entertainment.. I watch the walking dead regularly because it's entertaining not because it's violent..
As to the movie.. The photography is amazing especially the seen of the hair transitioning into hay fields.. that was amazing..
The story is awkward & paranormal twists usually come with plot holes making them hard to comprehend..

Reminds me of..
Red Lights (2012)
Donnie Darko (2001) this movie is awesome..

Title: Re: good movies
Post by: humbert on December 21, 2013, 03:30 AM
I disagree. A movie is simply a movie and nothing more. I love movies with plenty of explicit sex and graphic violence. I also love those spooky movies with ghosts, demons and people getting killed.

Remember it's just a movie. In real life I'd never dream of engaging in any kind of violence. Explicit sex.... probably.  :)

@aa1234779 -> How do you find the time to watch all those movies you download? Or is it that you burn them to DVD and sell them?

Don't you hate that 2.35:1 aspect ratio some of those movies use and the letterbox image on your TV? Clearly this is to appease the movie theaters. Movie theaters are another technology on the way out. Good riddance!

I keep them on an external hd to watch whenever I find the time.. Last hd I stocked up took more than a year for me to finish them, not to mention the movies that are unworthy of being watched.. This is the benefit of unlimited bandwidth..  :)

QuoteDon't you hate that 2.35:1 aspect ratio some of those movies use and the letterbox image on your TV? Clearly this is to appease the movie theaters. Movie theaters are another technology on the way out. Good riddance!
I just got used to the format these torrents are released in as long as it's at least 720p & the video isn't compressed too much.
How are theaters on the way out? As far as I know, Hollywood is still making hundreds of billions from the business.
Title: Re: good movies
Post by: humbert on March 29, 2014, 01:29 AM
Sure enough, there are many movies out there that aren't worth the HD space. As for downloading all of them only because you have the bandwidth to do so, does having ample supplies of water mean you're going to drink 100 liters every or what?

As for the movies, let me clarify. Certainly Hollywood makes billions and will continue doing so. It's their distribution method that will change. It's analogous to what's happening to brick-and-mortar music stores or to businesses such as Blockbuster video where you physically have to go get a DVD to play. With faster bandwidth becoming more and more ubiquitous, more and more people will download movies. Since policing this will not work, Hollywood will do what the music industry did - "legalize" downloading by charging people an affordable price. Also, just a few days ago on the news it said the movie theaters are dropping their prices - attendance is dropping and fewer and fewer people are willing to pay the outrageous fees they charge.

Mark my words.

Post by: humbert on April 19, 2014, 04:05 AM
Scarface, et al. -> Many movies I download were filmed in the detestable 21:9± aspect ratio, which means when I play them on my 16:9 TV I get those disgusting black bars on the top and bottom. Can anyone recommend a program or some other way to "pan & scan" these to 16:9 and therefore get rid of those black bars?

I've looked around on Google and Youtube, but what I've run into confuses me more than helps me. My TV only stretches 4:3 to 16:9, which isn't what I'm looking for.
Title: Re: good movies
Post by: scarface on April 19, 2014, 11:38 AM
Any solution involves cropping or distorting the image...
You can try to reencode with handbrake, and put your own height/width or one parameter only with the "keep aspect ratio". There Is also the anamorphic option but its difficult.
You should read the handbrake settings topic and perhaps talk to Ahmad, he's undoubtedly the real specialist for this.
Title: Re: good movies
Post by: humbert on April 20, 2014, 03:33 AM
I wasn't aware that Ahmad was the expert on this. Since this is a public post, hopefully he'll read this and enlighten me.

I've been reading a little about this. What I'm trying to do is called "pan & scan". This involves cropping out a small amount of the edges on both sides (hopefully the least important) resulting in that the aspect ratio is reduced to 16:9. I installed Handbrake once but I didn't see any way to do this.

Any ideas?

Title: Re: good movies
Post by: Ahmad on April 20, 2014, 09:16 PM
Sorry humbert :(
I'm not that expert about that.

I never need to change the aspect ratio when encoding a video because it deteriorate the picture. Also I scarcely need to convert videos.

But you can use any program, like handbrake as scarface said, and write the width and height manually.
Also, you need to convert to a format that your TV will understand. I don't know if handbrake converts to a format other than h264 or not.

I tried a program before and it was sufficient for any kind of converting..
Its name is Format Factory (http://www.pcfreetime.com/).

Title: Re: good movies
Post by: humbert on April 22, 2014, 01:37 AM
The reason I'm trying to crop the edges of a 2:35:1 movie down to 16:9 is precisely to get rid of those horrendous black bars at the top and bottom of the TV screen. It's true that some of the edges need to be cropped out, but going from 21:9 to 16:9 isn't that bad. The real deterioration involves cropping it down to 4:3 to fill those ancient square TV's. Let me give Format Factory a try and see if that works.

The TV supports h.264 AVC mp4 files - there are some I get from Yify that won't play on the TV (all will play on the computer). I've been told it's probably some codec in the mp4 container the TV doesn't like. I can make it work by using Ultra Video Joiner to "convert" it to the supported format, but UVJ won't make it come out as 16:9. I'm doing all this because I hate watching movies on the computer, that's what the TV is for.

@Shadow -> When I used to rip DVD's, I used Slysoft's AnyDVD combined with CloneDVD. AnyDVD destroys the copy protection and any region code while the other one copies or converts. It worked great. You might want to check it out.

@humbert..

Format Factory is just more simple and every one can understand it easily, yet it has a worse AAC encoding quality than Mediacoder.

So, In the case of your TV (MP4, H264 encoding), I think scarface's recommendation about Mediacoder is better.

Thanks for the tip. I downloaded Mediacoder and I'll check it out later on. FF didn't do what I wanted. Despite the fact that my player identified the file as 1920×1080, the black bars were still there, it's as if FF believes they're part of the movie.

I just tested Mediacoder and it worked - it successfully cropped a 2.35:1 movie down to 16:9. What surprised me was that the output file was 664 MB, and yet the input file was 1.25 GB. All other converters made the file much larger than the original. Since I'm a newbie at all this, I'm wondering if this is the program or that my settings are off.
Title: Re: good movies
Post by: Ahmad on April 26, 2014, 09:02 PM
Size becomes smaller may be due to one of the following reasons:

1-) The resolution produced is much smaller than the original ..

Example in your case..
If the original video resolution was 1692x720 and you cropped it to 1280x720
This will lessen the total size of the video.
Note that the produced size will be much smaller if you cropped the video to a resolution much lower then 1280x720 .. for example: If you cropped it to 740x360 instead of 1280x720 , the size will be nearly the half.

2-) Also the value of the bit rate plays an important role ..

If the original resolution and the produced resolution are the same, but the bit rate becomes the half, in this case also the size of the video will be nearly the half.

I think those are the most important controllers of the video size.
Title: Re: good movies
Post by: scarface on April 26, 2014, 11:30 PM
Indeed, but I disagree with your calculation.
If You switch from 1280x720 to 1280x360, You should have half the size, unless Im wrong, then less with your example.
I dont know if You include the blacks bars or not in the format anyway, they take less space.

A long time ago I had uploaded equilibrium on a torrent site (t411), in English (2.07Gb). Its still available, if You want to see my standard in term of quality.

I didn't see this one. Overall, I'm not into zombies movies, even if I still have the first opus of Resident Evil.

QuoteI'm not the one claiming to like intellectual movies, you are.
Yes, but it's you who deemed the following movies not "intellectually challenging" http://www.nomaher.com/forum/index.php?topic=1782.msg13908#msg13908.
For most people, those movies are good movies, and for some, they are perhaps even difficult to understand.
But here, we have a demanding audience. In most countries, it's not the middle class who has an internet access and who comes here to read a forum in English. That's why I put different kind of movies, so that a lot of people will find here something they like.
Once again, I guess that most people prefer the movies with Van damme to the misanthrope of Molière (theater piece).

As for that site, IDM will download the movie for you, but only at 360p maximum. Clearly it's meant for watching on the computer. I HATE watching moves on the computer, that's what the TV is for.

Tonight, I'm going to present a new movie, titled 'Exam'. This British movie was released in 2009.
The story seems simple: The film is set in present-time United Kingdom in an alternate history. Eight candidates dress for what appears to be an employment assessment exam. They enter a room and sit down at individual desks. Each desk contains a paper with the word "candidate", followed by a number, from one to eight. The Invigilator, a representative of the company named DATAPREV, explains that the exam takes 80 minutes and consists of one question only, and that there are three rules: they must not talk to the Invigilator or the armed guard at the door, spoil their paper, or leave the room. Not obeying the rules will result in disqualification.
With such a plot, the movie is gripping from the beginning and the rest of the film make us wonder what is going to happen to the candidates.
Like the cube movies trilogy, there is always a troubling atmosphere and every single minute, it gets more suspenseful and engaging. it really gets you to think what is the question, which is so painfully obvious once you realise what is the question.

Depending on your country, choose whether you can see this movie:  Australia:M / Germany:16 / Japan:G / Netherlands:12 / Singapore:PG13 / South Korea:15 / Spain:16 / UK:15 / USA:Not Rated

1408 is an awesome movie. I saw it about a year ago. BTW, as for those ages per country you posted, since when do we pirates follow rules such as this? Just download the movie and to hell with everything else.

I didn't see 187, but I do agree that the educational system in this country is decrepit. It's one more way the oligarchy that governs this country stays in power - they make sure the people are kept ignorant and obedient.

And speaking of movies, check out "The Interview". It's the one you've been reading about in the news. The one Kim Jong-Un declared and "act of war" and subsequently tried to hack Sony and threaten movie theaters who show it. This dictator doesn't seem to understand that all he's doing is putting money in Sony's bank account, not to mention giving the movie such a massive amount of publicity Sony couldn't achieve no matter how much they paid their advertizers. To give you an idea, when I did a torrent search and found it, it had almost 26000 seeds and peers. In all the time I've been torrenting, never have I seen that number so high. And not just Americans - people from everywhere wanted it.

Remember this movie is a satire, and satires by their nature are exaggerated and don't exactly reflect how things are in real life.

I must tell vasudev that I didn't like the movie 'Now you see me'. In fact a coworker brought his hdd filled with 1To of mkv in bluray and I had the opportunity to take him a few movies, but most of them were american, brainless and finally bad. I wouldn't have watched it otherwise.
And this movie made no exception.
The plot was farfetched and despite a promising opening sequence, the movie was utterly lacking intellectual integrity. The explanations for the unbelievable twists were hardly expedient.

No, but I don't see any connection with my messages on the forum. By the way, the short Norwegian movie is freely available on another site.
Personally I don't think I provide copyrighted materials on the forum and if anybody thinks it's the case, send me a message, I will remove the links in question. To my mind the only things to be afraid of right now are overpopulation and climate change. Those who believe in God had better think he will help us.


QuoteOur Mature content is rated 15+, is it the same in france?
In France movies are rated 12+, 16+ or 18+. The latter is usually reserved for horror movies or pornographic movies. But most of the time French movies are rated "for all audience" even when the rating 12+ could be seen as obvious. For example, watch the movie "swimming pool", by Ozon, where you can see boobs and other stuff, it was rated "for all audience". Same thing for the movie "jeune et jolie".

And compare with the other ratings...
Argentina:16 / Australia:MA15+ / Canada:18A / Canada:A (Ontario) / Chile:14 / Finland:K-15 / France:Tous publics / Germany:12 (bw) / Hong Kong:III (original rating) / Hong Kong:IIB (re-rating) / Ireland:18 / Italy:VM14 / Japan:R-15 / Netherlands:12 / New Zealand:R16 / Philippines:R-18 / Portugal:M/16 / Singapore:R(A) (edited version) / Singapore:R21 (re-rating) / South Korea:18 / Sweden:7 / Switzerland:16 (canton of Geneva) / Switzerland:16 (canton of Vaud) / Switzerland:16 (canton of Zurich) / Switzerland:16 (canton of the Grisons) / UK:15 / USA:R (cut)

´Fixed, I was just a bit lazy.

I watched the main part. Skipped the obivous sex part.
But honestly, this seems very normal to me. This is happening all over the place, and I have several female friends who can witness about the groping(The pool). Them being the younger sibling, watching as people hit on your sister and it gets very uncomfortable.
People taking control of your phone and such.
And, people have sex, its quite common.
Honestly, this video basically describes norway. (And sweden I guess.)
The translation killed it a bit for me though. I'd prefer with norwegian sub, or no sub. Its just small things, like when they said "bye" at the house. They wave, and say "Have a nice time" but it was translated into "bye"..

Kinda pushy to say the least about the guys coming to the girls house. Thats pressure alot of people cant handle properly.

I'll try to get time to watch the other clip, but i watched this because it was norwegian ^^.

I watched Prestige a few years ago. It was a good movie, but for a film about magic, I preferred The illusionist.
And if you want to watch other movies with Bale, I advise Equilibrium, or the machinist.

If he can get himself into Canada he's in good shape. If he convinces Canadian authorities he's being persecuted in his country, all the better. USA not a good idea at this time, especially for Muslims.

It's the same thing in the United States anyway. I had an acquaintance over there who was 62. He had big dental problems (I think he needed a bridge. But it was too expensive: he had too pay 25000$. So he went to Bogota. But he fell in the coma and died over there (bad food?). Well, he was still working 50 hours a week, and he was indebted since he still had a mortgage.

Well, in certain places, access to a doctor is rare. If you were in Yemen, maybe it would be even worse. And since you used quotation marks, I guess you were not a real uber but a kind of "gypsy cab". In here those who are working for Uber are regularly protesting in the airports. It seems a cabbie's pay doesn't compensate for the backache.

But this is going to change. Failing to find new renewable energies, and after thorough testing, Chinese engineers found a new way to prompt people to get up earlier and be more productive. For this experiment, they chose the laziest worker and the outcome was a real success.
Once awake, no doubt this worker will go fruit-picking or harvesting in the fields.

You were sitting there driving your car and the pain came back suddenly? You weren't in an accident or make a bad gesture to cause the slippage?

Quote from: aa1234779 on April 01, 2018, 02:22 PM
The little money earned is not worth a moment of the pain.

I agree. As I understand it you were just driving. In other words, it seems you weren't doing anything you'd think would cause the slippage to come back. Right?

Being a bit over-weight (not obese) + 40 hours weekly driving + very unhealthy car seat = lots and lots of pain while driving and when resting because of all the pressure on the spine.

Tonight, the movie 1492 (relased in 1992), is available on the forum.
In English with English subtitles (French subtitles are also available).
Maybe Vasudev or usman already watched this movie.

https://ok.ru/video/217862507142

(http://www.kinocollection.ru/pictures/1492_conquest_bd_big.jpg)

Having convinced the King and Queen of Spain to finance his voyage, Christopher Columbus departed mainland Spain on August 3, 1492 in command of three ships: the Pinta, the Niña, and the Santa María. After a final restocking in the Canary Islands he left there on September 6 for what turned out to be a five-week voyage across the ocean. On October 12, Rodrigo de Triana, a sailor aboard the Pinta, first sighted land. Columbus himself later claimed that he had seen a sort of light or aura before Triana did, allowing him to keep the reward he had promised to give whomever spotted land first. The land turned out to be a small island in the present-day Bahamas, which Columbus named San Salvador. On October 28 he reached Cuba. Thinking he had found China, he sent two men to investigate. Not surprisingly, they failed in their mission to find the Emperor of China, but did visit a native Taíno village.

(https://i.ibb.co/XCkjWkp/Columbus.jpg)

In retrospect, it is somewhat surprising that what is today considered one of the most important voyages in history was something of a failure at the time. Columbus had promised to find a new, quicker route to the lucrative Chinese trade markets and he failed miserably. Instead of holds full of Chinese silks and spices he returned with some trinkets and a few bedraggled natives from Hispaniola: some ten more had perished on the voyage. In addition, he had lost the largest of the three ships entrusted to him. Columbus actually considered the natives his greatest find. He thought that a new slave trade could make his discoveries lucrative. Columbus was hugely disappointed a few years later when Queen Isabela, after careful thought, decided not to open the New World to slave trading. Columbus never believed that he had found something new: he maintained, to his dying day, that the lands he discovered were indeed part of the known Far East. During his second journey he explored the south coast of Cuba, which he believed to be a peninsula of China rather than an island. He described the lands discovered during his third journey as belonging to a previously unknown new continent, but he pictured it hanging from China, bulging out to make the earth pear-shaped. Although Columbus was a gifted sailor, he was a terrible administrator, and the colony he founded on Hispaniola turned against him. After his third trip he was arrested and sent back to Spain in chains. Although he was quickly freed by the King and Queen, his reputation was shot. The Fourth Voyage was a failure by almost any standard. Many of Columbus’ men died, the ships were lost and no passage to the west was ever found. Columbus himself would never sail again, and died convinced that he had found Asia, even if most of Europe already accepted the fact that the Americas were an unknown “New World.”

Already has a BDRip version of Xmen apocalypse.
Who has a BDrip of Xmen apocalypse? the Pope? I assume you are talking about yourself in the third person. Julius Caesar did that. After all, If you do that it won't bother me.



Well you have to know that I won't keep the messages about Xmen apocalyspe though, I will delete them in a few days. This movie was bad. It's an euphemism. So once the link is dead I won't make a new one (and I have no more space on my mega account). I hadn't watched the movie before making the rip (out of a downloaded Bluray) and uploading it to the forum. But I should have been more cautious. Unfortunately most of the time, the movies with Jennifer Lawrence are taking part in deadening people's mind.

X-Men first class was probably the best of the series. And apocalypse is maybe the worst one to date.
The main scoundrel's motivation was bland (killing everyone to become the master of the world).
The way he "persuades" other mutants to join him is a nonsense - he basically just offers to increase a mutant's power and in return demands help to kill billions of people. Sounds like a fair deal. Like, Magneto gains the power to control pretty much all the metal on the planet at once, while Psylocke gains another special effect on her CGI laser beams or whatever it is that she emits. Apocalypse's abilities in general are largely undefined - at times he is shown pulling matter from objects around him to construct something, and then in the next shot he just makes solid objects like armor out of thin air. Another ridiculous thing was that they tried to make Isaac more intimidating by giving him thick soles so that he'd look taller, which is noticeable. What is more, his lines are cringe-worthy, but the problem is, so are everyone else's.
I think it was 720por 1080p. Damn good quality like Revenant you posted at Mega. My friends were spellbound after seeing the BDrip of Revanant and vowed never to touch DVDRip.

Maybe some of you watched the movie Swimming pool, available above.
It's not a masterpiece, I agree with you. You can probably find better movies on the forum.
But the movie is filled with symbols, and if you don't pay attention, if you don't understand the symbols that punctuate this movie, it can become dull very quickly.
If you watched it, I advise you to read my interpretation below.

Interpretation of the movie.
Sarah morton is an embittered and jaded woman who will relearn how to live through an intellectual and fantasy experience.
At the end of the movie, we are disturbed by the arrival of the publisher's daughter Julia and the mixture of the two images of Julie and Julia in the imagination of Sarah. This indicates that Julie and Julia are in fact the same person, one being the illustration of reality: a banal young girl with an ungrateful face and the other the representation of fantasy: a young woman with a dream body. This shows us that we have just looked at a story that we thought was real while we were immersed in the imagination of Sarah Morton: we observed elements and drew a false conclusion: the story that is happening is different from the reality: one of the themes is therefore the difference between what we believe to be the truth and the reality.
This difference is due to our interpretation influenced by our way of functioning and our fantasies. This theme is repeated in different moments of the film, especially when Sarah rolls the swimming pool cover, we think (like her) that she will discover a body when it is only a pneumatic mattress (which announces a future murder). Similarly, the scar of Julie is the illustration of the existence of Julie, it is the symbol of the reality of the body as a matter that can react, once again Ozon plays with us since we will learn at the end of the film that Julie is not real but imaginary.
Sexuality, death, blood are the universe in which we are immersed, in the heart of the soul of a frustrated and nostalgic novelist who says herself "she is passionate about crime sex and money. "
When sarah arrives in her room, she removes the cross from the wall: the cross represents the religion and its morality: Thus, Sarah will fantasize and sin and she removes the cross that calls her to order and we go back in her fantasies.
Sarah's absent lover becomes the absent father of Julie. The latter is looking for herself in her partners and hates him for abandoning her, leaving such a traumatism that she will even kill the waiter who rejects her and wants to leave: this revives her childhood trauma and this time she can make somebody pay for the harm done to her: she will kill this surrogate father: it is therefore a patricide that we are witnessing and not just the death of a waiter.
The death of the waiter, the death of Julie's mother announced by a person dressed in black, who ages too quickly (and thus dies too soon): All are symbols of death.
Finally the pool itself represents a place of rebirth: water symbolizes life: it is an amniotic liquor in which Julie is bathing from the beginning.

The writing of this book will allow Sarah to be reborn by the externalization of her fantasies, her frustrations, the monotony of her life, her lover who ignored her (this being symbolized by the signing of a contract at another publisher). She will discover the truth and meet the real daughter of the editor: Julia.

The latter is looking for herself in her partners and hates him for abandoning her, leaving such a traumatism that she will even kill the waiter who rejects her and wants to leave: this revives her childhood trauma and this time she can make somebody pay for the harm done to her: she will kill this surrogate father: it is therefore a patricide that we are witnessing and not just the death of a waiter.
The death of the waiter, the death of Julie's mother announced by a person dressed in black, who ages too quickly (and thus dies too soon): All are symbols of death.
Finally the pool itself represents a place of rebirth: water symbolizes life: it is an amniotic liquor in which Julie is bathing from the beginning.

The writing of this book will allow Sarah to be reborn by the externalization of her fantasies, her frustrations, the monotony of her life, her lover who ignored her (this being symbolized by the signing of a contract at another publisher). She will discover the truth and meet the real daughter of the editor: Julia.
I was confused at first but now with your interpretation it is easier to understand.

Quote from: Vasudev on December 11, 2018, 07:20 AMI was confused at first but now with your interpretation it is easier to understand.

Yes. Sometimes banal movies have a deeper meaning. That's the case with Swimming pool. That's the case with Fight club too. The movie is violent, but if you scratch the surface, it is calling into question a society based on efficiency and individualism.

Note that I corrected my review about Swimming pool, and therefore your message. Indeed, I jotted down a note in French, and then translated it with google translate. Not because I'm not able to do it, but because it's quicker. I noted that serveur had been translated incorrectly as server, but I forgot one occurrence. Indeed, serveur means both waiter and server in French.


By the way, here is an interesting review that I found about Fight Club:
The narrator's shifting from himself into Tyler Durden was a bit of a profundity because, when he was Tyler, he spoke with confidence and people followed. He was a bit like Jesus in the way he was charismatic.
Look at it this way, the Narrator (We'll call him Jack since that's who he is in the book) is always answering to someone. Jack doesn't have any real lust for life. He seeks answers but doesn't seem to find anything other than the superficial. It's bothering him. Jack can't sleep because he's never had a truly spiritual experience. Then, when he's Tyler, he confirms this because when he's Tyler, he says this:
"Man, I see in fight club the strongest and smartest men who've ever lived. I see all this potential, and I see squandering. God damn it, an entire generation pumping gas, waiting tables; slaves with white collars. Advertising has us chasing cars and clothes, working jobs we hate so we can buy **** we don't need. We're the middle children of history, man. No purpose or place. We have no Great War. No Great Depression. Our Great War's a spiritual war... our Great Depression is our lives. We've all been raised on television to believe that one day we'd all be millionaires, and movie gods, and rock stars. But we won't. And we're slowly learning that fact. And we're very, very pissed off."
Juxtapose that against what he said to Jack in the bar over three pitchers of beer which means that Jack had three pitchers of beer and discussed this entire thing with himself.
"We are consumers. We're the by-products of a lifestyle obsession."
The problem is that Jack is lifestyle obsessed. I mean he is absolutely consumed by it. He even states that he was nearly complete. What does that even mean.

Then Tyler starts to manifest. Just look at the guy. It's really obvious he doesn't give two shits what you or I would think of him. He dresses how he wants when he wants and isn't bothered by what anyone may think of him. He lives in a house that, by all rights, should be condemned. He's on the bottom, rock bottom and he doesn't give a ****. He's not a consumer. He's the kind of guy who doesn't give a **** about the latest cologne. He's Jack's exact polar opposite. Jack feels ineffectual, Tyler is charismatic and takes charge. Jack doesn't seem to have a lot of luck with the ladies, Tyler is into sport-*******. Jack is lying to police about his apartment, Tyler would be more than happy to tell the cops, " **** you guys I blew it up because I just couldn't take the soul-rending bullshit of being almost complete anymore."

Tyler amasses a following and Fight Club morphs into Project Mayhem because, in Tyler's Mind, these people want to be led to Tyler's promised land. There's adventure and wonder there. There's danger. There's the ability to be shaken up the core. Tyler has found a need. People no longer want to be chained to that nine to five where they have no incentive to pursue their dreams, these people that follow Tyler want to be anarchistic in their freedom. They want to answer to no one. They want what Tyler has. They don't want masters but they don't know how to get there so, for now, they accept Tyler as their master, knowing that, at some point, they'll be required to get from Point A to Point B on their own spiritually.

Tonight, the French movie Student services, released in 2010, is available on the forum.
Note that this movie might not be suitable for everyone of the forum, and I'm thinking about akaubee or usman.

After an initial stage of ambivalence and hesitation, I finally decided to upload this movie for the forum. There is no doubt humbert and aa1234779 will enjoy this film. But what about the school boys or the least fortunate of the forum, who could recognize themselves in Laura D.?
In all likelihood, this movie won't turn out to be a mirror reflecting their inner world.

My opinion: In the first 20 minutes of the movie, the predicament of the young student induces a state of queasy anticipation. The scenes with a world of lurid colors are intertwined with darker scenes. The viewers of the forum will certainly notice the stark contrast between the young student and the elderly customers.

The story:
Laura D. is a modern language student at a Paris university who desperately wants to do well in school. She works a part-time job but cannot make ends meet. One evening in which she is short of funds, she answers a personal ad online by "Joe," 57, who seeks a female student for "tender moments." The pay is  per hour. Laura pledges to do this just once, and three days later, she goes to a hotel room with Joe. And then her spiral begins.

In French with English subtitles.

Tonight, I'm going to talk about the movie Unseen enemy.

Unseen Enemy is an essential exploration of reasons 21st-century populations are experiencing a rash of diseases that were once only outbreaks, but have now become full-blown epidemics. This increased risk that we face, and the ways society and individuals can work together to reduce that risk, are explained to the public through the case studies of three epidemics: Ebola, influenza and Zika. Moving across the globe, we meet doctors, disease detectives and everyday people who have stepped into the horror of an epidemic and emerged deeply changed. Epidemics bring out the best and worst of human behavior, with effects reaching far beyond the tolls of sickness and death.

I haven't seen the movie but I do know the situation with epidemics is not as bad as it seems, and improving. Back in the 1980's HIV was a death sentence. Today that's no longer the case. A few years ago we were helpless against ebola. There are now vaccines and better methods of treatment. Cases or ebola are down, survivorship is up. Despite the fact that both your father and mine died of cancer, even there survivorship is much higher than it used to be, and slowly increasing as time passes. Some 12 years ago I survived cancer. If it had been 20 years earlier I would not be posting this message today.

What cancer did you have?
Concerning diseases spread by mosquitoes, I'm a bit pessimistic, because the effects of climate change will allow some species to go where they were not able to go before. Before 2008 there was no tiger mosquito in France.
For example, I was in the South of France this summer (actually somewhere between Lyon and Marseille), and I stumbled upon a tiger mosquito (I killed him so I was able to check that). I had never seen one before. some users of the forum like you, Maher or Vasudev probably know it already. They need warm climates but they are unable to live in the desert. With warmer Winters, they are rapidly spreading to Northern Europe and Northern America.

Esophageal. I felt some mild difficulty swallowing and at first thought nothing of it. Deciding to err on the side of caution, I went to the gastroenterologist where an endoscopy confirmed the results. I got 6 months of punishing chemotherapy followed by a month of intense radiation. The treatment was so severe I was hospitalized twice. In the end the tumor was eradicated and hasn't returned in 12 years. 20 years ago PET scans didn't exist. This meant the surgeon would have to cut me open and attempt to remove the tumor. This would not have worked in my case since the cancer was inoperable.

The Tiger mosquito (Aedes albopictus) is native to southeast Asia and is an invasive specie everywhere else. We all know what happens when a specie is inadvertently introduced to a place where it doesn't belong. History is rife with examples. Either way, I wouldn't be as pessimistic as you are. You know what happened to Ferdinand de Lesseps when he attempted to build the Panama Canal. Eventually the problem was solved and yellow fever eradicated. I've been to Panama twice and haven't seen a single mosquito. An even better example is South Florida. The Everglades are arguably the most mosquito-infested area in the world. It can't be sprayed because it would have an negative effect on the delicate environment. Despite this, the human population continues to grow and thrive.

Your survival rate was only 25%. You have been lucky.
My father has not been so lucky. I was a bit astonished to see that someone who is apparently healthy in October can be diagnosed with an advanced lung cancer in November and die 3 weeks later. But I found a similar case on the internet, here with user pol00lx: http://forum.doctissimo.fr/sante/cancers/cancer-poumon-foudroyant-sujet_158550_1.htm
Note that I'm wondering if sth has not happened to Maher (and to the users of the forum who have disappeared).

This baboon looks serene and intelligent. No wonder he was a God thousands years ago. And his haircut makes him look a bit funny.
Since nobody is posting photos on the forum, except me, you can be a bit flabbergasted when you discover it since it seems there are baboons everywhere.
But baboons are not to be taken lightly, with their sharp teeth they can be dangerous. However, they are much weaker than gorillas, who are very strong.

I had a friend with me once who was also fascinated with baboons.
He tried to lure a baby baboon with Raspberries in order to kidnap him from the tribe.
His attempt failed, and we fled the seen.

At this time, I had also made a review about the movie. And I kept it, since I deleted the message about it (the download link was dead). But you are lucky, because a new link is available below.
Stoker is the kind of painting that we observe, outside of the work, and that pushes us towards a slow fascination. Without identification, we are prisoners of an atmosphere, of this universe of tales for perverse persons.
In the hands of Park Chan-Wook, the camera is painting atypical actors. On this disturbing fresco, cracked by the smile of Matthew Goode, the blood is spurting, some pastel ribbons are twisting, nasty mortuary shadows are rising and bare feet slip into patent-leather pumps. This peculiar cinema haunts. The director is so specific about the details, so sharp on the beauty that they become unhealthy.

Tonight, another movie, titled "Look away", is available on the forum.

The story: Look Away is a psychological thriller that tells the story of Maria, an alienated high-school student whose life is turned upside down when she switches places with her sinister mirror image.
Note that this movie is probably not suitable for everyone on the forum.

If you experience lag with the streaming, try lowering the bitrate/resolution further.

The story: A man living in a futuristic sterile colony begins to question his circumscribed existence when his friend is chosen to go to the Island, the last uncontaminated place on earth.

Maybe some of you heard of the Theranos scandal, and how Elizabeth Holmes created one of the biggest scams in history. If you didn't, it's high time you watched the movie "Out for Blood in Silicon Valley".

Out for Blood in Silicon Valley is a 2019 American documentary film, directed and produced by Alex Gibney. The film revolves around Elizabeth Holmes, and her former company Theranos.

Maybe some of you appreciated the movie The island. In the same style, you’ll see that in a highly regimented boarding school, a pair of students discover that things are not as they seem.
While Vitamins prevent disease, humbert and usmangujjar are going to realize that the residents had better avoid them.

First choice: The three brothers, available here:

I watched Dorian Gray because you recommended it back in 2013. It was on TV in 2017 when I was imprisoned and recommended it to my cellmates & they liked it too.

Yesterday, I watched Black Mirror: Bandersnatch. I wish I hadn't. Having been a binge-watching fan of the series, this movie is a complete disappointment.

I'm not in the mood for horror or movies I've seen before nowadays. Still looking for something good.

I must say that it's easy to find good French movies, but there is already a large choice on the forum. If you find it, I recommend the movie "Madame Irma", with the actors of "Les 3 frères", but I didn't find any English subtitles.
I don't know if aa1234779, shadow.97, Fuj and the users of the forum will like Jumper. I hope they won't be disappointed. it's not an intellectual movie, but at least it's a bit entertaining.

Tonight, another movie, released in 1999, is available on the forum. At this time I went to the cinema to watch it. The forum didn't exist yet.
Maybe some of you heard of it: I'm talking about the movie Fight Club.


I must say that I didn't understand everything when it was released. Who is Tyler? Was it Jack? It wasn't clear.
In fact, Fight Club has one Kantian philosophical idea. The way in which we appear to ourselves is not necessarily who we actually are. The real Tyler Durden is unknown to us. All we have are these two images of Tyler Durden (Edward Norton and Brad Pitt).

The movie "Fight Club" boomed on the Hollywood scene in 1999; directed by David Fincher and written by Jim Uhls, who adapted the novel by Chuck Palahniuk. The film was highly controversial and not the type of feature most parents would feel comfortable allowing their children to watch. The core of this story hints around the conundrum of modern urban life. The main character and narrator of the film is an educated typical social construct named "Jack;" played by Edward Norton. Jack is a bachelor in his 30's whose biggest concern is how to decorate his apartment. Jack has reached a point in his life where he seems to be in doubt of his own existence, and simply going through the motions of life in a numb state. The beginning of the movie illustrates scene after scene of Jack boarding planes, and sitting at his desk at work. His entire life changes when he meets Tyler Durden, played by Brad Pitt â€" a witty, confident, and overall seemingly boundless personality.
Tyler Durden represents everything that Jack is not. Tyler is free from modern ritualistic routines and seems to have a mysterious and intriguing perspective on life â€" a keen ability to see through the social fabric of reality. After meeting the charismatic Tyler on the airplane, Jack comes home to find his apartment engulfed in flames. Not knowing what to do, or where to go from here, Jack calls his newly found friend Tyler. Together Jack and Tyler have a few beers at a bar where they discuss the mediocrity of the common consensus for the standard of living a modern lifestyle. Shortly thereafter, a scene in the film takes place behind the bar where Tyler asks Jack to hit him in the face, and shortly after, a small crowd gathers when they start fighting each other.

If we go to Palestine with the stars of the forum one day, humbert, Vasudev, usman... you are probably wondering if there will be a Fight Club too. Well, hopefully we won't have time to fight if we want to make some good goat cheese and barter it with local peasants. And maybe we'll have to make soaps too, in there is no more local marketplace. After all, it is the "yardstick of civilization".

Today, the movie Madame Irma is available on the forum.
There are no English subtitles available. But those who are speaking French fluently on the forum like panzer24 or humbert will probably watch it with great interest.

The story: Francis, who is in his forties, manages the French subsidiary of an American high-tech company. But the shareholders suddenly decide to close it. Depressed by the idea of being unemployed and the prospect of losing his second wife, Francis decides to consult a fortune-teller. The experience is a real eye-opener for him and the start of a new career: He pretends to be a fortune teller himself and turns into Madame Irma. How to explain that to his wife Clotilde?

Well, I know that aa1234779 and little usmangujjar are not only looking for documentaries or movies, they want to watch the most entertaining stories.
That's why I'm suggesting the movies Jean de Florette and Manon of the springs.
Jean de Florette is a 1986 period tragedy film directed by Claude Berri, based on a novel by Marcel Pagnol. It is followed by Manon des Sources. The 2 films take place in rural Provence. In the movie Jean de Florette, two local farmers plot to trick a newcomer out of his newly inherited property.

Some of you may have watched it when it was released, in 1991. But I don't know if some users like Vasudev or shadow.97 watched it, they were probably too young at this time. And yet, I wouldn't advise them to watch it at night.
Of course, I'm talking about the movie Terminator 2.

The story: Over 10 years have passed since the first cyborg called The Terminator tried to kill Sarah Connor and her unborn son, John Connor. However another Terminator is sent back through time called the T-1000, which is more advanced and more powerful than its predecessor. The Mission: to kill John Connor when he's still a child.

Its a bit scary.

I watched it a few years ago.
Not a bad movie.
It was something new to say the least.

These last few days, I watched a few good ones.

Upgrade (2018)
Set in the future, this is a great sci-fi thriller fit to be an episode of Netflix's Black Mirror.


Hard Candy (2005)
It's probably a movie to the liking of any pedophile hating person.
I'm sure everyone will like it, especially the forums (movies & beyond) specialist scarface.
(mature audiences only)

Captive State (2019)
Starring John Goodman & others,
it's a sci-fi thriller about an alien invasion with much originality, great acting, and lots of action.

They're all good movies worth watching by my standards.

BTW I watch only good movies to say the least, if not great all the time.
Maybe later I'll write something about the criteria I stick to on watching films & series.
Because we all have a lot of things to be busy with in our lives and don't have the time to watch something we might consider as "Not worth the 90-120 minutes or so" of our lives.

I'm an Arab & have nothing against my first language or any other languages around the world.

Yet I only like English speaking movies, even if dubbed, I don't care, but being distracted from the movie by focusing on subs is not my thing.

And as to Arab cinema & TV, it's the worst except for some rare gems every few years.

Speaking of, here is a list of 7 new Arabic films that I will NEVER WATCH ;D

That's true. But when you are looking for subtlety, it's pretty difficult to find good American movies. They are aimed at the general public and therefore they usually lack refinement. Some are made only to entertain, like Predator or Commando, there is practically no plot: the villain shoots, the nice guy shoots, and you have to see what happens.
But it's totally voluntary: with an IQ of 40 it's possible to understand the movie. And to watch the sequel, it's only necessary to remind you that the bad guy was killed at the end of the 1st movie.

We know that Vasudev knows the sequel of this movie, but I'm not sure he watched the first movie when it was released, in 1984, even though it might seem obvious since it's a good movie.
I'm talking about the movie Terminator. The first opus is probably more scary and more authentic than the sequels.

Tonight, another movie is available on the forum, titled Phone Booth and released in 2002.


Those who watched it a few years ago must be wondering why I didn't choose a better movie for the users of forum. Actually, there are already many good movies on the forum, and I must say I couldn't think of any other movies tonight. In my opinion, this is an entertaining movie, a one-time watch.

The Hitchcock influence is pretty obvious and the pacing of the film is just right. This is probably not the best movie of director Schumacher, who also made the movie Falling down. The lead could have been played by any yuppie looking actor but Colin Farrell does a good job anyway in a role that puts you in his character's place.

Vasudev certainly knows this movie, since it is taking place in the town of Kolkata, in India.

After all, maybe Vasudev hasn't watched this movie yet. It might be the case for shadow.97 or usman too, since this quite an old movie. And I want to warn you about this movie, If you are to watch it. Because it portrays a city filled with starving orphans, wretched slums and poor people abandoned on the streets, at a time when the fortunate ones were rescued by Mother Teresa.
There are certainly many poor people in Kolkata, but they are perhaps even more numerous in San Francisco or in Paris nowadays. And in India, half of Mumbai residents live in slums, far more than in Kolkata (or Calculatta?).
Besides, there is no mention in the movie of Calcutta’s beautiful buildings and educated middle class, or its history of religious tolerance and its vibrant literary and cultural life.

A few years prior to the events of the film, Skye was in a relationship with Paul Walsh, who (unbeknownst to her) had a daughter named Maya.

This was followed by Skye taking possession of the manuscript and publishing it as though it was her own. The beginning of the film showed Skye discussing the book, but she was later pressured by her publisher, Chelsea, to write a sequelâ€"despite the former's refusal to do so. It was during the discussion that she met Holly, who called herself a budding writer and a fan of Skye's work, and asked for the "author" to mentor her...

Well, I don't. The one above is only 480p and yet the quality is fairly good. If you remember the old "Dvdrip movies", you can consider the quality of 480p movies is already awesome.

Today, I'm going to do a review of Terminator dark fate since I finally watched it.

Reviews were mixed and I'm glad I didn't go to the theater to watch it.
Dark Fate is sadly another bad terminator flick. It is not only a blisteringly dark fate for this once storied franchise, but it also in many ways captures the dark fate of America’s mindless capitalism, a society in thrall to meaninglessly regurgitated pop culture symbols stripped of all that once made them great and then smashed out in great dithering waves to please the public

Terminator Dark Fate is putrid, insulting garbage. It was always probably destined to be that way, given what the last three films in the franchise were, and considering that most franchises are doomed to diminishing returns over time. And yet, foolishly, in some corners of the world where men are beasts and beasts are just the remnants of God’s light, hope endured. Hope that with James Cameron and Linda Hamilton returning to the project, it might be good.

But sometimes hope is just another fool’s delusion. And so it was. The first indication that this movie was going to be bad was that David S. Goyer wrote it. If we are being charitable, we might say that Goyer has contributed to some films that were good in the past. But his most recent credit was as the screenwriter for Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice, not just one of the worst super hero movies ever made, but truly a mark against human progress that a group of people, collectively, could have all looked at that script at any stage in the production process and believed that it deserved to be made into a movie. The other sign of trouble was the presence of Arnold Schwarzenegger in it.
But now Arnold is old. He is no longer an embodiment of unstoppable antagonist inertia. He has been, quite visibly, slowed if not stopped by time. And de-aging him would have been a disaster. So there weren’t really any good options. But nobody wants to see old Terminator. It’s just… not something we want to see.

That was a puzzle the story was going to struggle to solve no matter what. But it still doesn’t excuse how shoddy the rest of the film’s structure is. This movie just takes the template from the first two films and re-uses it, full stop. Instead of John Connor, now we have some new and totally forgettable future leader of the resistance who needs to be saved and we have a new guardian from the future and a new terminator trying to get them. Literally the only change is that the new terminator is a combination of the old terminator but this time with a liquid metal exterior.

Finally, this movie takes everything that was so good about the first two terminator movies - the imagery, the narrative structure, the characters, the ideas - and just recycles them in a shameless money grab that assumes the audience will be too brain dead to realize what is being done to them. It is an insipid, garbage film unworthy of the pedigree.

Note that the movie Terminator Dark Fate was removed. It's so bad that neither the forum nor the users deserve such a movie.
Instead, it's is replaced with another movie (reposted), titled Jumper, and released in 2008
Maybe some of you have already watched this movie. Like Terminator dark fate, it does not require a lot of sagacity, but at least it will be an entertaining moment.

Theater? Are there still movie theaters? This is obsolete, 20th century technology. Movies are readily available for download online and can be watched in the privacy of your home without having to deal with crowds or paying expensive theater tickets. Last time I entered a theater was back in the late 20th century.

Searching for Neverland will reveal firsthand the devotion Michael Jackson had to his children, and the hidden drama that took place during the last two years of his life.
Told through the eyes of his personal bodyguards and assistants in the waning years of his life (Chad L. Coleman and Sam Adegoke), Michael Jackson (Navi) struggles to find a home where he can safely live with his children.

Today, another movie is available on the forum, titled Super size me 2 and released in 2017.


Morgan Spurlock reignites his battle with the food industry - this time from behind the register - as he opens his own fast food restaurant.

The most interesting segment of the movie occurs as the buzzwords and their meanings are discussed. Having "nutrition" broken down from a marketing perspective truly exposes the outright fraud being perpetrated on the public. "Health Halo" is the moniker applied to descriptions like "fresh", "all-natural", and "no added hormones". Even "crispy" is used in place of the more accurate "fried", which is obviously a word no consumer would associate with healthy food. Spurlock is in his element when providing a startling visual for what qualifies as "free range" according to the FDA.

'Big Chicken' is compared to 'Big Oil', as 5 corporations control 99% of the chicken farming industry: Tyson, Perdue, Pilgrims, Koch Foods, and Sanderson Farms. We get an explanation of how these corporations apply enormous pressure on the farmers, keeping them in a constant state of debt - or worse for farmer Jonathan Buttram who has been blackballed for helping Spurlock make this movie. Spurlock bounces from Columbus, Ohio to Boulder, Colorado to Tennessee to Kentucky to Washington, D.C, to Alabama; and from Chick-Fil-A to Wendy's to 7-11 to Popeye's, and even to McDonalds - Spurlock's first visit in 12 years to the establishment that put him on the movie map.

Very little new information is provided here, but Spurlock does what he does best - entertain with examples of extremes. While his "fried grilled" chicken sandwich is a publicity stunt, the real story is how menus and labels are used to manipulate the consumer, many who don't seem to much care.

Seeing that you seem to be quite into movies, are you also into books?

I've been trying to force myself to read more. It's not going well. I need to increase my reading comprehension to learn to take in information in a more effective way.

I picked up 'Before the coffee gets cold' yesterday and started reading.
After 14 pages. Including white pages, I had to recap multiple times to make sure I wasnt missing important details.
I also keep zoning out and having to re-read pages due to that. It does get tiring. But I need it.


If any members are avid book readers with information I could see a need for a new topic to be created. For now I feel it's OK to be here, as many times books and movies go hand-in-hand.

Seeing that you seem to be quite into movies, are you also into books?

I used to read when I was younger, but unfortunately I stopped reading altogether (I read newspapers insted).
I liked geography books, the books of Emile Zola (Les Rougon-Macquart series) and notably "the Beast within", a book that you should try. I used to read some books of Agatha Christie too, like "Ten little niggers" or "Evil under the sun", I have the latter in English among the few book I keep with me, an excellent book. If you can read books in Spanish like me, I advise you to read "La noche boca arriba" and La puerta condenada" by Julio Cortazar. Finally, I advise you to read The Metamorphosis By Kafka.
And If you aren't afraid of getting bored, you can also try the remains of the day of Kazuo Ishiguro.
Note that I can't stand Proust who is heavy, prolix and wearisome. But if you like the wordy style, you can try "In Search of Lost Time", a novel in 7 volumes.

Tonight, the legendary movie "For A Few Dollars More", by Sergio Leone, is available on the forum.

For A Few Dollars More is it not an American movie but an international co-production among Italy, West Germany, and Spain. It was shot in Spain, and released in 1965 in Italy, with the original title "Per qualche dollaro in più", and the film was only released in 1967 in the United States with the title "For A Few Dollars More".
This movie was a real success, and after its release, the profession of bounty hunter became the choice of occupation of Spaghetti Western heroes in films like Arizona Colt, Vengeance Is Mine, Ten Thousand Dollars for a Massacre, The Ugly Ones, Dead Men Don't Count and Any Gun Can Play.

In English, with many available subtitles.

To put it bluntly, I must admit this is not the best movie in this topic. When I posted the recommendation above, I had not watched the movie yet, and I have to tell you I don't know if I'm going to watch the end of the movie. Btw, did you mean "although" or "I liked"?

I was able to get Z (2019) to play online. For some reason it refused to play on Firefox, so I brought up Iron (Chromium based copy of Google Chrome without tracking - highly recommended) and it played. Some sites prefer Chromium browers and some prefer Firefox. Why, I don't know - my addons are the same ones.

Unfortunately the highest available resolution for Z is 720p. I searched all the torrent sites and couldn't find it in 1080p, let alone 4K. The strange thing is that all kinds of movies can be found in 1080p, but not this one. Must not be very popular in the torrent community. I hate watching movies on the computer and my 2 TV's are 4K, which is why I'm looking for at least 1080p.

Quote from: Shadow.97 on June 10, 2020, 10:44 PM
Seeing that you seem to be quite into movies, are you also into books?
I've been trying to force myself to read more. It's not going well. I need to increase my reading comprehension to learn to take in information in a more effective way.

I picked up 'Before the coffee gets cold' yesterday and started reading.
After 14 pages. Including white pages, I had to recap multiple times to make sure I wasnt missing important details.
I also keep zoning out and having to re-read pages due to that. It does get tiring. But I need it.
In a previous message, shadow.97 told us he was reading books.
I'm going to suggest two books: Madame Bovary and Bel Ami.

Mme bovary, available here: https://www.gutenberg.org/files/2413/2413-h/2413-h.htm

Here is a famous passage:
Then there came forward on the platform a little old woman with timid bearing, who seemed to shrink within her poor clothes. On her feet she wore heavy wooden clogs, and from her hips hung a large blue apron. Her pale face framed in a borderless cap was more wrinkled than a withered russet apple. And from the sleeves of her red jacket looked out two large hands with knotty joints, the dust of barns, the potash of washing the grease of wools had so encrusted, roughened, hardened these that they seemed dirty, although they had been rinsed in clear water; and by dint of long service they remained half open, as if to bear humble witness for themselves of so much suffering endured. Something of monastic rigidity dignified her face. Nothing of sadness or of emotion weakened that pale look. In her constant living with animals she had caught their dumbness and their calm. It was the first time that she found herself in the midst of so large a company, and inwardly scared by the flags, the drums, the gentlemen in frock-coats, and the order of the councillor, she stood motionless, not knowing whether to advance or run away, nor why the crowd was pushing her and the jury were smiling at her.
Thus stood before these radiant bourgeois this half-century of servitude.

For the users who want to watch the new movie titled "The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It" and also known as "The conjuring 3", this movie is available on the forum.

In 1981, only a few years after Janet Hodgson's blood-curdling Enfield Haunting case (in The Conjuring 2), the experienced investigators of the unexplained, Ed Warren and Lorraine Warren, found themselves in Brookfield, Connecticut. There, Ed and Lorraine encountered something they'd never seen before: after the challenging exorcism of eight-year-old David Glatzel, Arne Johnson, a young friend of the Glatzels, began exhibiting increasingly strange behaviour. Then, more and more, the suffocating stranglehold of evil tightened around everyone involved, leading to murder and Johnson's incarceration. But, according to Arne, evil forces were at work. Did the devil, indeed, make him do it?

Maybe some of you have watched the movie “The conjuring 3”. I watched it and it was an excellent movie. And yet, the conjuring 3 might not be suitable for Vasudev, usmangujjar and shadow.97 because it is pretty frightening.
At the beginning of the movie, the exorcism of eight-year-old David Glatzel was meant to end months of torment. The demon was gone. But for Arne Johnson, it was the beginning. If you are willing to see the most sinister discovery of paranormal investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren, watch this movie with the link above, at your peril.

Actually, I watched this movie with a cousin, and it was obviously in French. Unlike Russia, in the movies dubbed in French, there is only one language (In foreign movies dubbed in Russian, you can still hear the original language with the Russian dubbing).

Subsequently, I’ve been to the theater several times in the 90,’s.
Note that "going to the theater is an American expression to say "to go to the cinema", in England you say "to go to the movies", and in French  you say "aller au cinéma" or "aller voir un film" whereas "aller au théâtre" means "to see a play" which also means "to go to the theatre" in England.
But each time the movie was in French (Edward scissorhands, The virgin suicide, The 5th element, Fight club, Blair Witch 2, Resident Evil, The men in black, The lord of the ring, Titanic...). At this time, I was living with my father in a small town in the Drôme department (for some reasons my mother didn’t want to raise a child).
In the 90’s, very few movies broadcast in English with French subtitles...because few people were speaking this language. Even in the TV series, the opening credits were adapted.
Maybe you are a fan of the TV series Dallas, with Bobby and JR. In the early 90’s I was watching it with my paternal grandmother, who died in 1996 of breast cancer). Here you can see the French opening credits, which were adapted. They were an ode to the glory of Texas. You are going to be dumbfounded: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rlfHcCLn4pk
But Nowadays, you can find many theatres with films in original version with French subtitles  (in French: version originale or VO avec sous titres). However...it mainly depends on where you live.
And you are lucky: for you, I found a study conducted by a movie specialist and translated it:
"Most cinemas do not necessarily offer original version en French version. On the two anamorphosis maps below, the bigger a department, the more its inhabitants are offered sessions in VO (in red) or in French (in green).

(https://i.ibb.co/VgFCS7d/france-vo.png)

(https://i.ibb.co/By5VVLk/france-vf.png)

In some regions, the original version is reserved for small downtown cinemas or arthouse cinemas. But some multiplex networks also schedule a large number of original sessions, such as UGC. If we go to the city level, it is of course in Paris that most original versions are offered. But the suburbs and a few towns in province are quite good, such as Montreuil, Biarritz and Hérouville-Saint-Clair in the lead, before the capital if we take into account the total share of the sessions in original version. Conversely, there are parts of France where no theatres are offering original versions. You have probably noticed that the following departments are missing on the red map indeed:
Ariege
Creuse
Haute-Saône
Indre
Orne

Here rarely does anybody say "go to the cinema". More often than not we say "go to the movies".

I am convinced that the movie theater is another old technology that is headed for extinction. Every day that passes getting the latest movies becomes easier while large TV screen gets cheaper and more ubiquitous.

Actually I knew it and it was a mistake or rather a confusion.
And if you use the expression "go to the cinema" in Texas, maybe someone will ask you where it comes from and you'll say: it's a Gallicism: I'm learning French on a forum and I now speak it so well I'm mixing English and French !

In the US, the handoffs from French called gallicisms are probably pretty rare, but as I wrote in a previous message on the forum, anglicisms are unfortunately more and more common in French. For example, a few days ago I stumbled upon an article of le Monde titled "La valorisation de la recherche doit être remise en haut de l’agenda politique et scientifique". The problem is that "agenda politique" is borrowed from the English expression political agenda, and it doesn't mean anything. In French the word "agenda" means calendar, or schedule in a figurative sense, but it doesn't mean program.
However, it would have been correct to use the expression "être au programme politique (to be on the political program).

Yes but it's not very popular.
One of the reasons the US-style Halloween celebration hasn't quite taken off in France is simply because it's too American. This alone has led much of French society to turn their nose up at the holiday. The locals see the celebration as being too commercialized - another reason for supermarkets and other stores to sell more candy, costumes, and alcohol. This is why you won't see as many shop windows decked out with elaborate Halloween displays.
Actually, despite having its roots in the Celtic cultures of Europe, Halloween is not a traditional holiday in France and came from North America in the 1990s and early 2000s. When I was young, it didn't even exist.
What's more Halloween is largely overshadowed by La Toussaint, a widely celebrated national holiday in France, which takes takes place the following day - November 1st - and traditionally sees the French honor the dead through flowers and special events.
Also known in English as All Saints Day, it is a widely celebrated national holiday in France.
The French don't say "trick-or-treat", instead they say "candies or a spell" (des bonbons ou un sort). However, there are not many costumed children who knock on front doors in France since this tradition isn't very strong.

This past Halloween I didn't even buy candy. Nobody knocked on my the door. This wasn't the case in past years.

I'm not too sure exactly how Halloween relates to the Celts, but I'm pretty sure the idea of dressing up and collecting candy did not start with them. I'm not even sure if it was the Americans who started it. From what I'm seeing Halloween is worldwide with the exception of totalitarian regimes such as North Korea. A few years ago I was in Colombia on the night of Oct 31st and there where children in the street going door to door collecting candy.

Commercialized? Absolutely!! Anything to make a dollar. Money is the one true god.

Storyline: A reporter is drawn to a small West Virginia town to investigate a series of strange events, including psychic visions and the appearance of bizarre entities.
This movie was inspired by the real life events that took place in Point pleasant in 1966 and 1967, a 13-month period during which paranormal activity was brought to a level that infected the entire town. Then, a New York-based journalist named John Keel came to the city to investigate the phenomenon. What he discovered was a place where unexplainable things occurred with staggering regularity.

Like Lisa Simpson once said in one of their episodes, Christmas is a time when people buy people gifts they don't need with money they don't have. Only the merchants make money.

Ever wonder why it's celebrated on December 25th? Missionaries were trying to impose their religion on Druids and others who lived in the far north. For them winter solstice was very important because it's the day the sun slowly returns after so much darkness. They came up with this outrageous lie that Jesus Christ was born on the winter solstice. The date came to be December 25th only because it's 3-4 days after the real solstice (Dec 21st) that the return of the sun becomes apparent in the Northern Hemisphere. In reality nowhere in the Christian Bible is there any mention of Jesus' date of birth, assuming he even existed at all.

Naturally I don't celebrate it. Went to work as usual.

Today, the French movie Student services, released in 2010, is available on the forum.
Note that this movie might not be suitable for everyone of the forum, and I'm thinking about akaubee or usman.


After an initial stage of ambivalence and hesitation, I finally decided to put a link for this movie on the forum. There is no doubt humbert and aa1234779 will enjoy this film.
My opinion: In the first 20 minutes of the movie, the predicament of the young student induces a state of queasy anticipation. The scenes with a world of lurid colors are intertwined with darker scenes. The viewers of the forum will certainly notice the stark contrast between the young student and the elderly customers.

The story:
Laura D. is a modern language student at a Paris university who desperately wants to do well in school. She works a part-time job but cannot make ends meet. One evening in which she is short of funds, she answers a personal ad online by "Joe," 57, who seeks a female student for "tender moments." The pay is 100 euros per hour. Laura pledges to do this just once, and three days later, she goes to a hotel room with Joe. And then the spiral begins.

https://www.nomaher.com/forum/index.php?topic=1023.msg29638#msg29638

At that time Humbert asked "Your link says the movie is in 720p. This is pretty low considering it's 1.75GB in size. Why not get movies in 1080p instead?". His question was not answered at that time. First and foremost, movies are not always available in Blue Ray version. It's particularly true for old movies. What's more, even when they exist, you have to be aware that a new version was released and be able to get it.
For example the movie "l'aile ou la cuisse" (the wing or the thigh) was released in Blue-Ray only a few years ago (it's here: https://www.nomaher.com/forum/index.php?topic=1023.msg29243#msg29243).

They don't necessarily have to be Blu-Ray. On http://yts.mx (http://yts.mx/) (my favorite movie download site), the majority of movies are WebRips. I have a 4k TV and it's easier to upconvert 1080p, which is why I'm asking for them. I've seen movies on that site as old as the 1930's upconverted to 1080p. I don't know how they do it.

BTW, 4k is rapidly becoming the standard. 8k will soon follow. Today even cheap TV's are available in 4K.

The previous ones were encoded with the x264 codec. Those ones are encoded with the new x265 codec. They are smaller in size and yet the picture quality is better. In fact h.265 can deliver similar quality at 2/3 to 1/2 the bitrate of h.264. But it's not very popular because it takes much more CPU power to encode and decode. What's more if most new devices support both, older devices do not support h.265.

She's no match for Bebel's tricks, despite cruel abuse, but the gang also annoys the public, including the dumb police commissioner. After a mix-up between their bomb-alert prop and a real terrorist group's African embassy attack, Bebel's bunch is condemned to pass their exams or go to jail, and the commissioner, charged with supervision, is in no mood to let them off easily.

Hey Scarface. I know I'm off the subject but just a quick question. I noticed that dégradé has 2 letters with accent (é) in the same word. French also has vowels with (è) and (ê). I refer to the letter E in this post, but I assume the same applies to other vowels. Is this because they're pronounced differently or what?

I'm curious because as you know, in Spanish there is only one accented vowel per word (e.g., é) and it indicates strong emphasis on that vowel. There are no (è) or (ê).

I'm glad to see that humbert is making huge progress in learning French. Usually one is wondering how to pronounce the words of a language when one is already able to speak it.
When I was young I was already reading some books in English (such as the remains of the day), but I had a terrible accent because the English language is not always logical. Let's take the example of the word "country": I was pronouncing "coontry" instead of "contry". This word is derived from the French substantive "contrée" (which means land, region...but not country) and the pronunciation is actually pretty close, but you see that in English the word is spelled with "ou" and in French "ou" is pronounced "oo" as in the word "cool" (note that in Spanish they don't use "ou" but just "u"). As for the letter "u" in French you don't pronounce it "ou" but as in the name "Hulk".

After this little digression, let's go back to the question of humbert. I guess Maher, iih and Gulliver are also waiting for answers.
Actually there are 3 types of accent in French.
We are going to see the use of these accents on the letter "e" essentially. But you have to know that when a word ends with the letter e, you don't pronounce it, as in the words bouteille (bottle), table (table), immeuble (building). If you want to have a different sound, you need to use an accent.

Let's begin with the acute accent (é), which is the most common.
Basically, you are pronouncing "é" as you would pronounce the last "e" of "siempre" in Spanish.
Many verbs in the past participle ends with "é". If we take the word "dégradé", it's the past participle of the verb "dégrader". Like in English, you can use the past participle of a verb as an adjective.
Note that in the infinitive, dégrader and dégradé have the same pronunciation (if you see a word ending with "er", you have to pronunce it "é". In Spanish you pronounce the r in the word "comer", but it's not the case in French for the verbs accepter, abandonner, marcher manger...

Now let's see the grave accent (è). it is also placed over the e but can also be used over other vowels. It only changes the sound over the e, however. This accent points upward towards the left, so is like the opposite of the acute accent. It produces an "ehh" sound like that in set or get. An example of the use of the grave accented e can be found in "très" (very) or "chèvre" (goat).

Finally, let's see the circumflex Accent (ê). It can sit on top of any of the vowels a, e, i, o and u. It has three functions.
Firstly, according to certain French language rules, it can change the pronunciation of the vowels a, u and o but never of e and i. 
Secondly, it is used to show where another letter once existed in the Latin word the French word is derived from. For example, the French words "forêt", "hôpital", or "crête" were written forest, ospital or crest in the Middle Ages. The English language kept the old form with the s. The word hôpital used to have a "silent" s. It indeed comes from the word "hospitalia" in Latin, which gave "ospital" in old French. The "s" became silent in the 11th century and was replaced with ^. Some words of the same family, such as "hospitalisation" (this time the s is not silent), came after the 11th century and took the original Latin word as a template.
Thirdly, the circumflex is used to distinguish one word from another that is spelt the same way but pronounced differently. An example would be "sur", meaning on, versus "sûr", meaning sure (actually I found this explanation but I would pronounce them the same way). However, in some words the circumflex has no known function.

You have forgotten the umlaut (ë), but I can talk about it here.
It is very similar to the German umlaut, and is formed by two dots that are placed over the second of two consecutive vowels. It is to show that the vowels are sounded separately, for example, it is used in coïncidence (ko-ehn-see-dahns), which in English means coincidence.

Scarface: Thanks for taking the time to explain the difference between the different types of accents used in French. It's a little hard to understand. Later when I'm less tired I'm going to read it more carefully.

French has umlats (ë)? That's news to me. I don't recall seeing one in any French text I've tried to read.

Spanish, Italian, and even Russian are very phonetic languages. You write it the very same way you say it. English isn't phonetic at all and there are no accents to help. French isn't very phonetic either and is full of silent letters. I heard all words that end in a consonant, the consonant is silent. I also heard that the letter (e) at the end of a word is always silent unless it has an acute accent (é). Is all this true?

At least there are different types of accents that help you pronounce.

Actually you could probably replace the ë with è, it wouldn't change the pronunciation of these words (Basically you pronounce them like this : Noèl, canoé, Israèl).
However you can find it on the "i" of many words, meaning that you have to pronounce a or o and i separately, as in celluloïd, haïr, laïque, païen, coïncidence, maïs, baïonnette, coïnculpé, hébraïque, mosaïque, paranoïa, héroïne, naïade, polaroïd, égoïne, héroïque, naïf, stoïcisme, camaïeu, faïence, inouï, troïka, Caraïbes, glaïeul, laïque, ouïe, Zaïre.
The 2 letters "ai" are normally pronounced "é" or è, and the rule is roughly the same in English (liaison, aimless). In fact, the French language is more logical than English because Zaïre, which is spellt Zaire in English (with the same pronunciation), is not pronounced "Zère".

Quote from: humbert on October 16, 2022, 06:19 AMI heard all words that end in a consonant, the consonant is silent.
It's probably true. However it can change the pronunciation of the word.
For example let's take the verb "accepter". If you say "humbert et Maher doivent accepter de jouer au tennis avec scarface" (humbert and Maher must accept to play tennis with scarface), you use the verb in the infinitive and you pronouce it "accepté". Now if you use the sentence "humbert accepte de jouer au tennis" (humbert accepts to play tennis), you would just pronouce it "accept"

Quote from: humbert on October 16, 2022, 06:19 AMI also heard that the letter (e) at the end of a word is always silent unless it has an acute accent (é). Is all this true?
This is also true. But this is also the case for many words in English.
In fact the letter e in French is spelled out phonetically as ə. If you want to get trained, think of it as the "meuh" of the cow: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y5fSWknQFQM
This sound can appear in English with the letters "a" or "e", for example in the sentence "a trip to the North Pole" but the a is then pronounced differently between 2 consonants, which is not logical (the a of "Japan and "take" is pronounced differently whereas it appears both times on the first syllable and between two consonants).

Note that I encoded the bluray of the movie "the cow and I", known as "la vache et le prisonnier", in x265 with burned-in subtitles, but after looking at the results, the picture is sometimes "noisy". Maybe it's due to the fact the the movie was released in 1959. However, I think it wasn't the case with the DVD edition. I'm trying to encode it a second time with strong denoise settings. If the result is conclusive, I will post it, Vasudev, aa1234779 and shadow.97 might be interested in this movie.

I'd go as far as to say ANY language is more logical than English. The spoken language is OK, the problem is how you write it. Even then, a campaign to make it more phonetic is bound to fail. Why? As you know, in Spanish there is the Real Academia de la Lengua Española in Madrid. They write the dictionaries and keep the language updated. All this is then forwarded to the 20+ countries where Spanish predominates. English has nothing like that. British English and American English have different spellings. Not even in England is English the official language! The USA has no official language either, at least not federally. You can pretty much write it any way you want. BTW and before you mention it, I believe there is an equivalent of the Academia in Paris, for French obviously.

Just curious: have you been to Spain? If so, did you communicate OK?

Finally: I'm sure you read my post about my concerns for Daniil? What do you think?

Tonight, another movie, titled the cow and I and known in French as "la vache et le prisonnier" is available on the forum.
This movie, released in 1959, is based on Jacques Antoine's 1945 novel, Une histoire vraie (A True Story).
Encoded in x265 with English subtitles. The movie was "denoised".


Story: Charles Bailly, a French prisoner of war in Germany in the summer of 1943, decides to escape from the farm where he is forced to work and go home to France. Observing that a man with a cow and a milk pail passes unnoticed in the Bavarian countryside, his plan is to take one (whom he names Marguerite) and to walk with her to Stuttgart, where he will leave her and hide aboard a train for France.
Their epic journey takes weeks, during which the two meet many people, some sympathetic and some not. They get into many situations, some dangerous and some hilarious. For example, on a narrow pontoon bridge over the Danube, Marguerite will not budge when a company of German soldiers tries to cross.
Reaching Stuttgart, Bailly has to part from Marguerite and jumps on a train. At its first stop in France, he gets off but is challenged by French police. To escape them he jumps on another train, which viewers can see is heading for Stuttgart.

Tonight, another movie is available on the forum.
This is the movie "les 3 frères", released in 1995. If you don't speak French perfectly it's not a problem: this movie has English subtitles.
If you want to watch an excellent and funny movie, I recommend this one.
Encoded in x265.

Three half-brothers are reunited at their mother's funeral. After being told of their inheritance they quickly spend the money, only to find out that they will not receive it after all. The men grow closer while deciding how to proceed.

It's the "Inconnus"'s first movie for the screen and they made a funny and entertaining comedy. Three men who are very different are discovering that they are brothers. They 're also discovering that they're going to inherit a fortune that used to belong to their mother. But the inheritance is cancelled and they must escape from the police, the notaries, the bailiffs. Now that they are in the street, they've got to beg for but at the same time, they're learning to know each other better.... The film won the Oscar for the First Best film in 1996.

In 19th-century France, Jean Valjean, who for decades has been hunted by the ruthless policeman Javert after breaking parole, agrees to care for a factory worker's daughter, known as Cosette. The decision changes their lives forever.

Tonight, another movie, titled Germinal and released in 1993 is available on the forum.


Story: In mid-nineteenth-century northern France, a coal mining town's workers are exploited by the mine's owner. One day, they decide to go on strike, and the authorities repress them.

In French with English subtitles
link: https://ok.ru/video/6176092785223


Gulliver and maher are certain wondering why the book is titled Germinal. In fact, it's because something is germinating. And you can read it in the following passage, taken from the book : "But now, deep in the earth, the miner was waking from his slumber and germinating in the soil like a real seed; and one fine day people would see what was growing in the middle of these fields: yes, men, a whole army of men, would spring up from the earth, and justice would be restored."

Tonight, another movie, titled Delusions of grandeur, is available on the forum.


Story: Power-hungry tax collector Don Salluste de Bazan (Louis De Funès) is banished from the Spanish Court and decides to use his valet, Blaze (Yves Montand), to take his revenge. In disguise, Blaze fills Don Salluste's vacant position and plans to have an affair with the queen (Karin Schubert), which the vengeful ex-collector will then reveal to the king (Alberto de Mendoza). Instead, Blaze and the queen fall in love, and the valet uses his newfound power to help end mistreatment of the poor.

In French with English subtitles.
Link: https://ok.ru/video/6076380154439


For the anecdote, Karin Schubert, the queen in the movie, came out of nowhere and sailed high into an international career opposite Richard Burton, Yves Montand and another tragic blonde star, Dalida. She gave fine performances in everything. After these successes, Schubert shocked audiences when she abruptly moved into hardcore sex films in 1985 before vanishing from the public eye without a trace a decade later. What the public didn't know was that Karin Schubert's segue into hardcore wasn't a capricious choice on her part. Her son, who was desperately addicted to drugs, had become so out of control that his mother became the target of his violent outbursts. Schubert left her career behind and fled to Spain initially before agreeing to pose for the hardcore pictorials to earn the money needed to get her son treatment. In 1994 she was placed under the care of a psychiatric hospital.

Hello everyone, today I'd like to present a movie as well. It is called "Life and Extraordinary Adventures of Private Ivan Chonkin", made in 1994 in a Czech/Russian/French/Italian/UK co-production. The screenplay was written by a czech playwright/actor/writer, but it's based on a satirical novel written by soviet dissident Vladimir Voinovich, which depicts the daily absurdities of the soviet regime and expresses strong anti-war sentiment. The movie is, at its heart, a comedy, and it ends on a more lighthearted note than the novel. A short description from IMDB reads:
Quote"Set in a small Ukrainian village during the outbreak of war with Germany in 1941, Private Chonkin, not overly endowed with intelligence, is left to guard a downed military aircraft. The authorities appear to have forgotten about him so this leaves him free to work his charms on the village postmistress, Nyura, until the local militia are tipped off."

I think some users of the forum, humbert for example, could find it very interesting, and still relevant in the present day.

You can watch the movie here in czech dub with english subtitles: https://vimeo.com/834341988 (https://vimeo.com/834341988)
There is also a russian dub available, for those who will find it easier to understand, like Daniil. You can find it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sx_X7WHWhFM (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sx_X7WHWhFM)

I assume humbert watched a few of the movies available in this topic. Perhaps maher and Guliver watched the excellent movie "The Little Girl Who Lives Down the Lane", presented in the previous message.

If you want to watch another movie, I' going to present misery, released in 1990.

The story: After a famous author is rescued from a car crash by a fan of his novels, he comes to realize that the care he is receiving is only the beginning of a nightmare of captivity and abuse.

Analysis:
The most unsettling thing about "Misery" is that Annie seems to have no endgame. Almost from the beginning of the play, it's clear that nothing good can come from trapping a famous writer in her cabin for months, with the world searching for him and a sheriff occasionally knocking at her door.
Misery is rather a psychological thriller than a horror film. As such it does not feature the sheer number of jump scares, moments of violence, and high number of deaths as was a convention of other horror films in the nineties. Of course, Misery is still frightening; and I don't know if I would advise it to Vasudev.

Hey Scarface. I know you do some video editing and [I believe] use programs like handbrake. Is there any way to enlarge a video while limiting grainy pixelization to a minimum? I know this can be done with image files, but not sure about videos.

Some videos I have are almost the size of a postage stamp when put on a 4K screen.

Hi humbert,

In fact I used to do that, indeed. if you want to reencode a video, you have to know that re-encoding almost always results in some loss of quality. However, the loss can be barely noticeable if you use the right settings. I reencoded some videos using the x265 codec, to reduce the file size, since x265 can deliver similar visual quality to x264 at lower bitrates.  But enlarging  the video resolution is probably the worst thing you can do. Because your playback devices is probably much better at "upscaling" if needed. Likewise, increasing bitrates from a low bitrate source won't add any quality improvements, instead you're adding only more useless data which results in a larger file for no good reason.
Yet, if you still want to enlarge your video, you can load it in handbrake and then put the resolution limit and then check the "Allow upscaling" checkbox. In the example below I put a 720p video that could be re-encoded in 1080p.

Scarface - thanks for answering.

Logic dictates that video quality will be compromised if you try to enlarge it. The idea is to enlarge and mimimize degredation.

Basically you're using handbrake to enlarge and re-encoding to x265? Is this just to save space? Can degredation be minimized if you use x264 assuming space is available? Remember that with today's drives, space is no longer the problem it used to be.

I never enlarged a video. However, I re-encoded some videos to save space.
x265 demonstrates superior compression performance compared to x264, with bitrate savings reaching up to 50% especially at the higher resolutions.
Therefore, with a 1080p video encoded in x264 at 3 or 4 Mbps, I re-encoded them in x265 at roughly 2,2 Mbps (vs 3 Mbps for the source video for example) or 2,5 Mbps (vs 3,5 Mbps or more for the source video). With the same resolution, the difference is not visually noticeable.

(https://i.ibb.co/wY3SLgt/h-265-vs-h-264-bitrate-1024x1024.webp)


You can see the results with a few movies available on the forum - all these videos were previously in x264 and re-encoded in x265:
