Was this supposed to be something special?

It certainly wasn't any good when I watched it.

Its a classic of the genre

>>82402706
it's a classic regardless of genre

>>82402821
good point

It exposed the crooked world to normies. Granny never was the same after.

Classic means jack shit. What's so special about it? I watched this, Laura and The Maltese Falcon and none are above 6/10.

Fucking this. Although i can argue that by classic they often mean groundbreaking.
Pic related was pretty boring but was nice to see almost every cliche on the book used for the first time

Proof /tv/ doesn't have patricians

>>82402056
Sounds like you got overhyped

It was nice to look at with some nice shots. Starred Orson Welles so it was popular

>>82402056
It was pretty good, the chase scene was kino

>>82403010

Didn't care for the other movies posted in this thread, but this was excellent.

>>82404640
honestly worth watching just for the chase scene

>>82402953
>The Maltese Falcon and none are above 6/10.
HOW

>>82404715

Because they didn't really engage me. Plots weren't interesting/exciting enough.

>>82404745
Do you just hate noir in general?

Have you seen Sunset Blvd?

>>82404768

No, I loved Double Indemnity. Haven't seen Sunset Blvd.

I thought it was kinographic.

Well yeah it only made dutch angles really popular for decades to come when hack directors don't know how to make their scene pop

>>82404836

I wish I was able to get anything out of fancy camera angles. Maybe then I'd enjoy Citizen Kane too.

>>82404920
do you not notice them?

>>82404920
Evert freshman student on every photography class:
1. Shoots B&W
2. Tilts his camera / experiments with angles

Conclusion: O.Welles was a noob

OP is King of the Plebs. Wouldn't know a great script if you stuffed one up his arse.

>>82402056
I bet you like Disney's Guardians of the Galaxy 2

>>82406999
Welles is the spiritual grandparent of the modern capeshit

>>82407028
FUN FACT: orson welles wanted to direct a black n White Batman movie after he made citizen Kane
