      I always have a IMDb tab open when watching CineFix's lists. I just keep adding films to my watchlist as the video goes on. Currently have about 250 films that I still need to see and I couldn't be happier about it.

      Mubi is pretty good, is kind of like FilmStruck when that was a thing. I'd say 70% of films in theater are commercialized and uninspired, those are the money makers and keep theaters open. CineFix does a pretty decent job covering a lot of great films. If you get the chance to go to a film festival near you, that's another place to see inspiring non-mainstream films :)

    • @RabidArtists

      @Barbara Mulvaney good source for this is to look up legit filmmaker channels like Indie Mogul, Film Riot, Cinema Sins, etc, and see which films they suggest. Those are usually how I'm directed to the right ones to watch. Since you can't possibly watch everything, you need to find the 5% of gold mixed into the 95% of mediocrity. I work in film so it's easier when you're surrounded by it for sure, and my parents like really cheesy films so I ignore most of their suggestions haha. Hope u can find good sources!

      clearly there is no way to define original in film. hell the narrator said it himself.
      if that were the case, then the first time anyone did anything would be the most original of its kind.
      the problem is the definition of original. in this case anyway.

    • @Krimson5pride
      @Krimson5pride 6 년 전 +1

      True.
      I believe an original film is something that's groundbreaking and inspires a trend.
      Batman (1989) might not be a true adaption of Batman franchise, but it presented the superhero in an intriguing way that played a crucial role in the development of Batman: the animated series.
      If I have to pick the most original movie of all time, it would be Citizen Kane.
      You can see the movie has inspired even some of the modern directors like Martin Scorsese and Quentin Tarantino. (this is coming from a guy who watches movie for fun, so i m probably wrong, but that'[s my opinion)

However, I still am waiting for the day you finally namedrop Don Hertzfeldt and his wonderful animated short films, from the crude absurdity of Rejected to the ambitious Meaning of Life, his contemplative and experimental Bill trilogy (It's Such a Beautiful Day) and most recently, World of Tomorrow which contains more novel high concept science fiction ideas in 20 minutes than the past few years of Hollywood blockbusters put together.

      False, and an example of not knowing what the word pretentious means, obviously.
      Pretentious: attempting to impress by affecting greater importance, talent, culture, etc., than is actually possessed.
      I don't see film X. Film X is said to be brilliant because patterns were made by scratching during processing.
      Saying I'm being pretentious is wrong. It is simply a fact that that claim is false.
      Saying film X is pretentious is true: that's the definition of the word pretentious.

      They need a series of documentary lists. Unfortunately, the avalanche of great docs that people never get to see (I average three or four per year out of hundreds barely released) makes it hard to make such lists meaningful. Maybe a list of most ENDURING documentaries would have to suffice. Or the most impactful docs - those that actually altered the scheme of the subject matter they tackled. Those would narrow things down.

    You've approached this topic with so much thoughtfulness and presented such compelling arguments that I am extremely excited to watch all of these films. I'm disappointed that most people will shrug this video recommendations off as another listicle, because this "list" was really a meta-analytical video essay in five parts.
    Fantastic.

      "Perfect Blue"?
      Constantly shifting reality/gas-lighting to the point where the protagonist sees herself as a non-corporeal spirit.
      This spirit form seems to come to life at several points, having its own will.
      Not only is the protagonist suffering from a breakdown of reality, so is her attacker!
      The stalker takes on the victims persona from time to time...
      Even at the end, after the stalker is in Hospital, there are hints that our hero is not really living in our world.

      Perhaps some people don't expect a thesis on the title digging into every film ever made on the topic with narration of its entire premise. Occasionally less is more. Once a beautiful thing is described and dissected it often time looses something, something personal, bringing the subconscious into the conscious, taking that connection into the masses. An unknown lyric ironically at times sounds better than knowing the word, kinda thing.

    Very pleased with this list--especially to see "Enter the Void" and "Dog Star Man" featured so prominently, as these are pure cinematic creations, utterly unique in their execution. Leos Carax is another French filmmaker criminally underrated and overlooked. I think that if one Hollywood film could make the cut it would be "Wizard of Oz" which I can't imagine seeing when it first came out. 2001: Space Odyssey probably deserved an honorable mention as did Sans Soleil by Chris Marker which really blew my mind. As did Road Warrior which I saw at a sneak preview weeks before it finally got a wide release. In truth this list could have 20 or 30 worthy candidates.

    A few more original gems:
    Haxan-It's a documentary about witchcraft from 1929, which was already kind of unusual. But it has these insane recreations in it were it tries to capture the hysteria of the medieval religious beliefs and has a kind of self-aware, humorous quality to it at how absurd and ridiculous the shit that medieval folks believed in.
    Underground-Insane epic that tries to tell the story of the downfall of Yugoslavia through an surreal, comedic crime saga filled with Slavic polka, slapstick fight scenes and tons of sex and violence. I recommend seeing it very, very high.

    There's a wonderful little movie called "Bagdad Cafe" with CCH Pounder and Jack Palance in a completely non-characteristic side roll that I believe is one of the most visually stunning films I've seen yet. It's like each frame could be a poster. It also falls into this category as an original presentation. I think the ending got pretty corny but still didn't destroy it completely. It's one I like to show friends who've never seen or heard of it. It's like showing Dead Man to the Johnny Depp fans who claim to have seen ALL his movies yet never heard of it.

    Having seen (or just heard of!) perhaps one fifth of all the films named in this video, you've reminded me the extent to which the various channels and businesses of delivering film to audiences are broken. I seek out the unusual, the bizarre, the lesser-known, the forgotten, globally, through academic and enthusiast sources online, through streaming services, and (when I get the chance, which is rare) at art and indie houses. And yet I, with an open mind, undeterred by language difference, silence, colour or lack thereof, genre, method, style, or obscurity, have once again found a list of many fascinating gems that at age fifty-one I have Still. Not. Seen. THANK YOU! for this, for being new and unpredicted (to me, at least), much like the movies you mention.
    On the one hand, I could be grateful for the depth and breadth of cinema and the fact that I can always find new stuff worth my time. And I am! But the industry certainly could make it easier on people like me to find such works on our own, sooner, without having to discover them on a list somewhere, years or even decades later (and then, most likely, struggle for months or years finding a watchable copy to legally -- or not! -- download or stream).
    Could you please post a complete list of all of the titles (with year) mentioned, not just the five finalists? That would be helpful.

      @@ethancenteno6928 I certainly enjoyed Climax, but the end was incredibly self indulgent and verging on tedious

      Guile21 - I'm not bothered about likes, I made this list only for me and anyone else who finds it useful. If most people don't find it useful, that's cool.

      Ricehugs I feel ya, just where I live in Indy I couldn't get any of my boys to peep. I bring up Gaspar Noe and their eyes glaze over. But hey, their loss. They weren't in the rave scene like I was so they are prolly are weary of the psychedelic aspect. It's one of my favorite films ever and I connect with all the visuals, so I was so happy to see it on this list.
