City of God

[ono]

Just watched this again for about the tenth time. It's my favourite film bar none.





Who else has seen it? City of Men and Elite Squad aren't bad either.

Any other World Cinema classics you like? I think we should petition to get HTH to watch it. Broaden his horizons a little

An all-time classic for sure man! Love 'City of God.'

One of my favourite international films is 'Seven Samurai' by Akira Kurosawa. Just perfection...
It would be hard enough to get HTH to watch a subtitled film by itself, but add to that the fact that it is in Black & White and I think we can safely say there is a better chance of Bilbo not being a pedophile.

Haha i'll look out for that. There are a few on here that watch subtitled films. I used to be a right snob until i bought Tell No One, not realising it was in French until i stuck it on. After about 5 minutes i forgot i was even reading the subtitles. Have you seen city of men?

City of Men was a really good film in its own right, but City of God was a total masterpiece. The kind of film that comes along once in a blue moon really!

I've been watching subtitled films for about 10 years now, since I first saw Battle Royale on a really fuzzy and poorly received transmission of Channel 4. Great film! I think Japan has one of the strongest cinematic track records in the world. The sheer number of classics I have seen from Japan is just crazy.

Yeah City of Men can't help being compared to City of God which is unfair but inevitable. Same with Elite Squad. I first saw City of God on Film 4 i think. Channel 4 and Film 4 have been pretty good lately. Timecrimes was on last week and Tony Manero was on about 3 weeks ago.

Have you seen Sin Nombre?

City of God is in colour. And it's not about young boys. So no. The end. Seriously though, i reckon it would blow your mind.

Yeah sort of. Not at the end though. Actually it's not really a car chase. There's guns in it though. And sex, and violence. And a guy who looks a lot like Emmanuel Adebayor. If that doesn't swing it, then i don't know what will.

[Oggie]

Never seen Sin Nombre man, but I think I know the film. Is it about people from a country in South or Central America (can't remember where!) making a journey to the USA as illegal immigrants? Something along those lines anyway.

Yeah that's the one. It really enjoyed it. The girl at the start is so fit that i went and bought a film called Drama/Mex. Haven't watched it yet though.
