If you don't like it, leave.

>...on Netflix

Good taste! But I like Days Of Wrath a lot.

>>85774262
Bad taste! That's Dreyer's worst film

>>85774913
Why? Please expand on this, it's the only film by him that I consider great, passion of Joan gets mentioned everywhere as the best silent film but Foolish Wives is miles ahead imo.

>>85775193
It's pretty fucking dumb and melodramatic even for Dreyer

>>85775283
Surely you have some better criticism for it besides it being "dumb" right?

>>85775193
>Foolish Wives
not even the best film of 1922 let alone best silent flick

>>85773913
People like to pretend they genuinely enjoy Griffith just because "he made it all first".
Well yeah, but everyone after him executed it better.

>>85775349
If it isn't in your top 5 of 1922 idk what to tell you.

>>85775341
Surely you have some better justification for liking it besides "I like it a lot."

>>85775412
Watch more than 5 films from 1922 first.

>they're not available digitally

idk what to tell you

>>85775355
>People like to pretend they genuinely enjoy Griffith just because "he made it all first".
If that was genuinely the case, people would suck off Edwin S. Porter

>>85773913
So what you're saying is reddit likes poetic emotionally impacting visual storytelling while /tv/ likes technical sterile gimmick show-offs?

>>85775554
reddit fell for the "film is an aesthetic medium" meme

>>85775355
I like him because he made great pictures that literally changed the medium, his films are humanistic and poetic, there's no reason not to like him, unless you have something against silents, but even the talkies are good, unless you don't like 30s Hollywood.
>>85775492
I've seen more than 5 films from 1922, vato.
>>85775542
I like Edwin S porter.
>>85775428
I have, actually, would you like to read it just so you can call it dumb?

>>85775605
what are your favorite Griffith films? where should I start with him?

>>85775605
Anybody that thinks Day of Wrath is Dreyer's best film has nothing worth reading.

>>85775671

Watch the Biographs, some of the shorts are excellent

His features, I think, are largely over-rated although he was a racist so of course he's beloved here

>>85775671
Start with Biographs. But really, if you've seen anything by him and are not convinced, that's a taste problem, and that can't be fixed.

>>85775696
Ok then hide my posts and continue being afraid of discourse.
>>85775671
Start chronologically, I guess it's more rewarding that way, I don't think any of hia films are not as essential as others, check out everything you can find, and if you can't find one, make a thread here and I'll see if I can help.
My favorites would be the greatest question, intolerance, the struggle, way down east and the one that really holds a place in my inner circuits is the mothering heart

>>85775724
Find me 1 instance of him being explicitly racist. Give me 1 good reason why niggers should be considered human.

>>85775861
ah thanks anon, I'll ignore the shitposters and follow your advice, I'll start his filmography next week probably
cheers! its so hard to get answers like yours in this board lately
