"Place is perhaps not the primary thesis of his filmography as a whole, but it is certainly a guiding principle."

“4 Little Girls,” a documentary about the bombing of the 16th Street Baptist Church that killed 4 Black Girls in 1963; & big budget features like “Inside Man” & “BlacKkKlansman,” for which Lee won the Oscar for Best Screenplay in 2019.
#SpikeLee found success through perseverance, creating a path & opportunities for other #Black #directors in #film & #television.

Francis Ford Coppola's latest film, "Megalopolis," has been pummelled by reviewers. But once upon a time, he made great films — in particular in the 1970s when he directed, in just seven years, "The Godfather," "The Conversation," "The Godfather Part II," and "Apocalypse Now." The Ringer's Miles Surrey makes the argument that this is the greatest four-movie streak in history, and breaks down the other filmmakers that might compete. Take a look at the article and tell us which of these directors you think comes out on top — specifically in this totally arbitrary and meaningless category of four consecutive great movies (due to the limitations of our poll, we have omitted some of the possible answers from the story; feel free to make your own suggestions in the comments).
Послухав трохи дряхлого і спитого Кустуріцу, який вмикається в ефіри русні, окрім його бреду в словах, добре було бачити його життєвий світ:
– повсюди бухло, порожній графін, повні пляшки на фоні
– інтер'єр помешкання в стилі жлоб-арт, масивні шкіряні крісла, Пшонка б плакав

If enough #writers, #directors, #actors and #crew learn how to #fundraise, #market and #distribute #movies and #TV themselves, the companies now facing a strike and refusing to talk become irrelevant. Thank you @EntPartners.
