  1. Stephen Brockmann's A Critical History of German Film's icon

    Stephen Brockmann's A Critical History of German Film

    Favs/dislikes: 1:0. From early masterpieces such as The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari (1920) and Metropolis (1927) to the post-1945 films of Fassbinder, Herzog, and Wenders, German film constitutes a crucial part of the history of world cinema. It helped to shape Hollywood cinema and had a major impact on other cinemas as well. This tried and tested book, popular in college classrooms and among general-interest readers, is the most comprehensive and readable introduction to the history of German cinema, specifically designed to meet the needs of those who want a comprehensible, accessible introduction to the subject. There is no other book that covers the history of German cinema in the same depth and also explores the genesis and meaning of the most important masterpieces in German film history. It does so in chapters devoted to each of thirty-two individual films and in seven interchapters that provide context for historical periods from early German cinema to postunification. The book now appears in an improved, expanded, and up-to-date second edition that covers five additional films, expands the coverage of women's cinema, and brings the history of filmmaking in Germany up to the present moment. The book is specifically designed to appeal to cinema aficionados and for use in college classrooms, where it has been greeted with acclaim by students and teachers alike. Stephen Brockmann is Professor of German at Carnegie Mellon University. #1: Early German Film History 1895-1918 #2-7: Weimar Cinema 1919-1933 #8-10: Nazi Cinema 1933-1945 #11: German Cinema at the Zero Hour 1945-1949 #12-15: Postwar East German Cinema 1949-1989 #16-25: Postwar West German Cinema 1949-1989 #26-32: German Film after Reunification 1990-2019

    Mark Kermode's 25 of the Best Films for Children

    Favs/dislikes: 1:0. In compiling this list of 25 great movies for children, I have attempted to bear in mind the vast range of films that I was lucky enough to have encountered at an impressionable age, and to acknowledge that, until fairly recently, young moviegoers were raised on a diet of movies that played to audiences of all ages. My choices range from short animations to feature-length live-action films, from silent films to foreign-language classics (I’m assuming subtitles aren’t an issue) from a century of international cinema. Along with the more obvious contenders, I’ve included a few titles that some readers may not consider to be children’s films at all. Fair enough. But, crucially, these are all films that kids could watch, if they wanted. The list is arranged not by merit but by date.
  4. The Playlist's The 100 Best Sci-Fi Films of All Time's icon

    The Playlist's The 100 Best Sci-Fi Films of All Time

    Favs/dislikes: 2:0. If there was ever a time where sci-fi was seen as something only for geeks, that time has long gone. You could debate the exact point at which it changed — when Stanley Kubrick’s “2001” had audiences dropping acid for a better trip, when the blockbuster success of “Star Wars” changed film forever, when comic book movies dominated screens, when CGI made it possible to do almost anything, when even nerdy old “Star Trek” got a sleek, hip makeover — but there’s no doubt that the genre is firmly within the mainstream. Indeed, looking at the blockbuster season ahead, there’s all kinds of science-fiction adventures to come, with this week bringing the second space adventure in three weeks, with Ridley Scott’s “Alien: Covenant,” which follows “Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol. 2” into theaters, where it’s currently doing gangbusters. And three of the all-time top-five worldwide grossers are hard sci-fi movies: “Avatar,” “Star Wars: The Force Awakens” and “Jurassic World.” Scott’s return once again to the sci-fi franchise he helped create has had us thinking about the genre’s place in history, so we decided to take our most comprehensive look at the genre ever, and pick out what, in our view, are the 100 greatest sci-fi movies of all time. It’s a genre almost as old as cinema, so it was understandably difficult to pin down, even with a few ground rules (most notably that we sort of consider superhero films their own thing). But we’ve found a list that we’re pretty happy with in the end, though we’re sure it’ll inspire plenty of debate. Take a look below.
  5. Empire's The 60 Best Action Movies's icon

    Empire's The 60 Best Action Movies

    Favs/dislikes: 2:0. "Action". To some it just means "violence", but the greats of action cinema give us something more, turning shootings, punching and explosions into a spectacular artform. From the taciturn classics of the '70s, through the one-man-army '80s, the mismatched-buddy '90s and on to the superheroic present day, allow Empire to guide you through 60 of our favourites.
  6. The Hankyoreh's 100 Korean Films's icon

    The Hankyoreh's 100 Korean Films

    Favs/dislikes: 3:0. For the 100th anniversary of Korean film, Hankyoreh and CJ Cultural Foundation organized a selection committee with 38 experts from the film industry, (including directors, producers, critics, programmers, and researchers of film history) to select 100 films to represent 100 years of Korean film. Top 11 in chronological order "The Border City" (2002) and "The Border City 2" (2009) are included together, but the former is missing on ICM and IMDB.
