Teorema on November 10th. Is this the first Pasolini film to appear on TCM? When can we expect to see Salo?

It's up On Demand right now by the way. The second half is very good but a bit sad seeing her describe their tumultuous affair and ups and downs.

Definitely agree about the private letters and diaries. You could see the emotion in her eyes as they were read. I also agree that she is a very beautiful woman.

I noticed on a broadcast of Chicago on the THIS channel, they edited the line "single, my azz" to "single, my eye." Instead of leaving the scene blank, they edit the dialogue. In Aidan Quinn's Crusoe, they also edited out the sacrifice scene and the "I have no one to sell you to!" scene.

I liked this one a lot. A very close intimate look into the lives of Bergman and Ullmann and it holds nothing back. In many scenes, Liv clearly tries to hold back tears when thinking about how much she misses Bergman and how much they fought while also recollecting the happier times they had together. With segments titled "rage" and "loneliness" the documentary did not gloss over their fighting. There was also a bit of self-deprecating humor from Liv Ullmann on Lost Horizon and being compared to Greta Garbo going to Hollywood - "I did what Garbo never did. I bankrupted two studios." This was an interesting one and I'm glad it was shown.

I thought that the music was catchy and had a nice message. I think another part of it is that the original is such an amazing classic that it pales in comparison to that. It is certainly not as good as the original but it is very fun for what it is.

All very good films that I enjoy. Don't listen to the haters.

The one guy in the Off Topics who used to spam nothing but tweets in the anti-Trump thread left a little while ago. I generally hold the same sentiment but the TMZ tabloid style "you will NOT friggin believe what Leo is hiding" title is a bit much.

The first one sounds a bit like Hotel Berlin.

Woody Allen is not even in the Liv Ullman and Ingmar Bergman documentary. A decades old, 3 minute bumper of Allen discussing Bergman's films is being shown as a commercial and that is why the OP is upset.

I see a bunch of threads discussing older films alongside newer ones. If you want yet another subforum like the other ones which are virtually dead and get maybe two replies a month then have at it.

Along with Welcome, No Trespassing, this is one of my favorite satirical "dissident" films of the Eastern Bloc.

On the first page alone, I see a Cry Havoc thread, I just Watched (usually discussion of 30s - 50s films), Best director of 1939 and Brief Encounter.

This is a movie discussion forum and TCM is not a Studio era only channel. The Lost Horizon musical was just on and it is certainly not from the studio era. People want to discuss both Studio era and newer films. If you want to make a thread about a specific actor, film, studio, etc. you are free to do so.

No Hannah and Her Sisters?

The version of Emigrants they show is usually dubbed but New Land is usually shown in the original Swedish (it's only been on twice before though). New Land is memorable to me because of that very brutal scene where a fetus is cut out of a pregnant mother and crucified on a cross. I'm surprised they are showing it so early in the day because of that scene.

So then who should they get to talk about Bergman's movies? The point of the bumper is to promote the lineup of Bergman films on Liv Ullman day. I see lots of "I... I... I.." Other people watch the channel besides you.

If Riefenstahl or Polanski had footage played as bumpers on TCM, I would not care. The channel bumpers are discussing movies, NOT condoning their personal lives or politics or any of that.

Also Cobra Verde is a great film. Definitely worth watching.

Even if you end up disliking it, it is barely over an hour and fifteen minutes so it's not a long slog.

I was genuinely trying to be supportive. Making a thread to "prove something" is NOT going to make you feel better about yourself.

You made this thread because the one poster (fxrey I think?) criticized you, right? It's healthier to just ignore it and not let it get to you.

I consider the rest of the films to be 10/10 but my personal favorite of them is probably Aguirre. Very crazy performance from Kinski.

Well they're not for everyone. I have seen the entire day's line up except the 2012 documentary on Liv and I will be sure to record it.

Woyzeck and it's not even close. This is the shortest one and yet it is by far the most boring. I was waiting for him to just kill her the entire first hour. The film moves at a snail's pace. We all know he wants to kill her so he should just do it. The drum major sleazeball who helps commit the adultery also faces no retribution from Kinski. w-t-h? Just let the cheater walk free? Good one, Herzog. Wacky characters like the doctor who drop cats out of windows and prescribes eating only peas to everyone just come across as lame and annoying to me. The only redeeming scene is the great finale. The rest of the films are all 10/10s for me but this one is like a 5/10. There was an interesting concept but this was just boring. This was shot in under two weeks and really feels like he had an interesting idea but just hurried through it.
