Japanese Anime Classic Collection
Favs/dislikes: 2:0. "This four-DVD set of vintage anime presents 55 titles from the 1920s and 1930s, the Golden Age of Japanese silent film." 1-12: Disc 1 13-26: Disc 2 27-41: Disc 3 42-54: Disc 4 Missing from IMDb: Shojoji no Tanuki-bayashi Ban (Disc 3) (the list includes both the benshi version and original version, but there is only 1 IMDb entry) Dobutsu-mura no Daisodo (Disc 4) Note: I am assuming that Deko-bô no jitensha ryokô is the same as Dekobo no Jidosha Ryoko (jitensha is probably just a misspelling). -

Kenji's The Caucasus
Favs/dislikes: 2:0. This neglected but fascinating region with high mountains and beautiful scenery, between the Black and Caspian seas, has produced some extraordinary and exceptional films. Most essential first here, the rest in year order. Sorry, I have let this list slip, will update to include more recent films soon. I thought we already had a Caucasus list here, we do have some that cover the area along with others, but i can’t locate one on the Caucasus alone. Turkey is on the edge of the Southern Caucasus, and to the North, Russia; here it’ll just be Georgia, Armenia and Azerbaijan, indigenous directors like Paradjanov, Kalatozov, Iosseliani, Abuladze, Peleshian and a couple of films by Atom Egoyan who is of Armenian heritage. I’m not including films set elsewhere, for instance Iosseliani’s French films, and Kalatozov’s in Russia (The Cranes are Flying…) and Cuba (I am Cuba), but i am including films by other Europeans like Since Otar Left and Journey to Armenia. See Noema’s list Georgian Cinema and "Kolar’’s list CINEMA OF AZERBAIJAN, invaluable resources that fill major gaps here. Good to see lots of Azerbaijani films now added to database. Parajanov’s Ukrainian-set Shadows of Forgotten Ancestors is a must-see too. The Iranian film Bashu the Little Stranger may also be of interest as much of it takes place in the Northern region of Gilan, which is next to the Caspian Sea and is thus culturally contiguous with the Caucasus (thanks to Chai Wallah for that info). The list is separated into a Top 14 and the rest, with both sections listed chronologically. Missing from imdb (mostly shorts): #70 Biri Vardi, Biri Yoxdu... (1967 Eldar Quliyev) #97 Untitled (1976 Hamlet Hovsepian) #119 Tənha narın nağılı [Tale of the Lonely Pomegranate Tree] (1984 Şamil Mahmudbəyov & Hasanaga Turabov) #150 A Night at Parajanov Museum (1998 Roman Balayan) #157 Impressions from Rustaveli (2001 Nana Tchitchoua) #186 Mayak [The Beacon] (2012 Fariz Ahmedov) #190 Ert katss vukvardi [One Man Loved Me] (2012 Ana Urushadze) -

AMP's 20 Great Bangladeshi Films of the 21st Century
Favs/dislikes: 1:0. September 22, 2020 By Fahmidul Haq After the advent of new technologies such as satellite TV, CD/DVD in 1990s and Internet streaming in 2000s, Bangladesh’s mainstream industry, which was once vibrant, started declining. Meanwhile, since the mid-1980s, there was a slow but steady growth of independent cinema which started representing the national cinema of Bangladesh by documenting politics, culture and society, both in fiction and documentary genres and by participating in international festivals. Primarily these films were artisanal in look – short in length and technically ordinary; gradually they started to be more mature – full length in duration and comprehensive in film techniques. Since 2000 and onward, Bangladeshi cinema is trying to find its own voice internationally, which is often overshadowed by Indian Bengali Cinema that reached its peak by the contributions of Satyajit Ray, Ritwik Ghatak and others. In the new millennium, Bangladeshi cinema has elevated from the ‘artisanal’ to the ‘global’ stage. Also, there was an evolution in the themes of Bangladeshi Cinema– from rural to urban and from traditional-cultural archetypes to post-modern and post-globalized complex realities. Except one or two, the selection criteria of the following 20 films was the intend to portray the broader culture and society of Bangladesh instead of just telling a good story or entertaining audience or even just experimenting artistically. The themes of the films are diverse and deep rooted in history and culture of Bangladesh as a nation. The films are described here in temporal order. The selection includes three documentaries. -
AMP's The 20 Best Post-Liberation (1972-2000) Films from Bangladesh
Favs/dislikes: 1:0. December 29, 2020 By Fahmidul Haq Bangladesh started producing film regularly since the mid-1950s, when it was part of Pakistan. Due to the colonial military rule by the central West Pakistan, there was a rise of Bengali nationalism and people of East Pakistan started revolting. The East did not get the power even though their political party Bangladesh Awami League got absolute majority in 1970 Pakistan election. The people of the East got increasingly agitated and there was a military crackdown in the midnight of March 25, 1971 and the war started. Through the resistance of freedom fighters and the diplomatic and military support from India, Bangladesh got liberated from Pakistan on December 16, 1971 . This article selects the 20 best films in post-liberation (1972-2000) Bangladesh. The country had a vibrant mainstream film industry in 1970s and 1980s. Since 1990s, the industry started declining due to many internal and external factors. Meanwhile, since the mid-1980s, there was a slow but steady growth of independent cinema which started representing the national cinema of Bangladesh by documenting politics, culture and society, both in fiction and documentary genres and by participating in international festivals. Until mid-1990s, independent films were artisan in look – short in length and technically ordinary; however, gradually they started to be more mature – full length in duration and comprehensive in film techniques. Except one or two, the selection criteria of the following 20 movies was the films’ intend to portray the broader culture and society of Bangladesh, instead of just telling a good story or entertaining audience or even just experimenting artistically. The themes of the films are diverse and deep rooted in the history and culture of Bangladesh as a nation. The films are described here in temporal order. The selection includes 2 documentaries and 18 features that comprise 5 war films, 6 rural based, 3 city centric and 1 children film. It is also interesting to note that 3 rivers are mentioned in the titles of 3 films and 3 films are set in the coast of the Bay of Bengal. It is quite natural that the rivers, the sea, and the boat would be the characters in the films made in Bengal Delta region. Two films (“[url=https://www.icheckmovies.com/movies/palanka/]Palanka[/url]” [1975] by Rajen Tarafdar and “[url=https://www.icheckmovies.com/movies/padma+nadir+majhi/]Padma Nadir Majhi[/url]” [1993] by Goutam Ghosh) might be included in the lists, but those were co-productions between Bangladesh and India and the director is from India. “Titas Ekti Nadir Naam” by Ritwik Ghatak was also directed by an Indian citizen, but it was solely produced by Bangladesh, hence included in the list. Moreover, Ghatak was born in Bangladesh and lived here until his early youth. -

Cine21's 30 Films That Brightened Korean Cinema
Favs/dislikes: 1:0. (Google translate; original Korean after) [Special] 30 films that brightened Korean cinema and the stories of their directors Written by Cine21 Report Team 2019-04-10 <Cine21> 24th Anniversary, 100th Anniversary of Korean Movies Special In celebration of the 24th anniversary of <Cine21> and the 100th anniversary of the birth of Korean films, 30 Korean films were carefully selected. Rather than the concept of'best' competing with each other, it was chosen as a film by 30 different directors that span each period. 1960 of three directors who led the heyday of the Korea Film Shin <of romance ppappa > (1960), Kim Ki-young of < maid > (1960), Yu Hyun-mok of < ohbaltan > (1961) to start yiduyong of < a witness of the last "(1980, ) and Im Kwon-taek of < mandala "(1981), Lee Jang-ho 's < home of the Stars " (1974), and Bae Chang-Ho of < whale hunt "(1984), bakgwangsu of < chilsu and mansu > (1988) and Jang Sun-woo 's < the road to Racetrack > (1991), Park Chan-wook 's <Old Boy (2003) and Bong Joon-ho 's Memories of Murder (2003), Lee Chang-dong 's Poetry (2010), Hong Sang-soo 's Bukchon Direction (2011), Na Hong-jin 's Gokseong (2016) and Lee Gyeong-mi 's Secret These are the films of different directors representing the last century of Korean cinema, up to (2016). One director's work was selected, so the unfortunate work that could not be mentioned was referred to as a sub with the director's other work. Some directors and works were not included in the regret.

Cinema, Nation, and Empire in Uzbekistan, 1919-1937
Favs/dislikes: 1:0. Between the founding of Soviet Uzbekistan in 1924 and the Stalinist Terror of the late 1930s, a nationalist cinema emerged in Uzbekistan giving rise to the first wave of national film production and an Uzbek cinematographic elite. In Cinema, Nation, and Empire in Uzbekistan Cloé Drieu uses Uzbek films as a lens to explore the creation of the Soviet State in Central Asia, starting from the collapse of the Russian Empire up through the eve of WWII. Drieu argues that cinema provides a perfect angle for viewing the complex history of domination, nationalism, and empire (here used to denote the centralization of power) within the Soviet sphere. - List of features included in bibiliography
