The Masters of Cinema
Video Overview & Insights
Welcome to a new episode of 'Foundations of Film', an ongoing series by The House of Tabula.
no Spielberg here destroys all credibility
Today's episode features an examination of the great auteurs of cinema and dissecting how each individual was able to build on top of what came before and add to the grand story of cinema.
Foundations of Film seeks to give a comprehensive guide for film studies to all interested in the field.
전체적으로 아주 훌륭한 리스트지만, 프랑스의 예술적 정수를 담은 장 콕토나, 장 비고. 누벨바그의 진정한 대표자인 트뤼포. 미국 영화의 구조적 완성인 니콜라스 레이를 놓쳤다. 또한 아쉬운 점은 클레르 드니나 레오 카락스, 알렝 레네같은 현대 시네마의 진정한 거장들보다 오락적 성취를 거둔 well-moviemaker가 더 많은 부분을 차지했다는 점이다

I respect your perspective but Erich Von Stroheim, Jaque Rivette, Bernado Bertaloucci, Jean Coceatu, Straub Huillet, Pedro Costa, Lav Diaz, Chris Marker, at least one great filmmaker from Africa & Latin America should've been there.

16:34 Buster Keaton
18:08 Charlie Chaplin
To say that some films are unenjoyable to watch, yet are necessary, is a sentiment I can stand behind only in the context of uncomfortable content; I completely disagree with the notion that there is any benefit to even making a profoundly boring movie. You rhetorically ask why the audience must watch such mundane activity for so long, and I non-rhetorically answer that there is no reason, and that such filmmakers simply know a certain filmgoing community will always break a leg finding the hidden meanings in such content. It is impossible to make a movie where meaning can't be found, but it is a waste to produce one that forces the viewer to create that meaning
20:31 Fritz Lang
22:34 Victor Sjostrom
One of the most useful videos on this platform, alongside your film studies viewing list.
That said, fuuuuuck Jodorowsky, that guy was a pretentious junky and his philosophy boils down to doing more drugs
THE GOLDEN AGE
24:14 Alfred Hitchcock
Thank you so much for this extensive work. I was expecting Woody Allen in the list 😅
27:03 Akira Kurosawa

John Woo
Chang Cheh
Lau Kar-leung
Mel Brooks
Denis Villenueve
Jackie Chan

You need to watch films by the great Egyptian director Youssef Chahine. Egyptian cinema has also produced great directors such as Salah Abu Seif and Kamal El Sheikh, and of course Shadi Abdel Salam, the director of the iconic film The Mummy.

1:00:20 Roberto Rossellini
1:01:19 Vittorio De Sica
This might be the most magnificent video I've ever seen on YouTube. I'm glad Lumet, Sheptiko and other lesser known masters are included. I missed David Lean and Milos Forman, but this is still a perfect list.
1:02:44 Frank Capra
1:04:04 Kenji Mizoguchi
this video should be part of film school course
1:06:43 Satyajit Ray

The dynamics of this exploding beach running shot has been stuck in my mind, would love to add this to my watchlist for that shot alone lol
THE MODERN MASTERS
1:16:56 Stanley Kubrick
It's exactly because of videos like this, I'll never stop loving YouTube. No matter how bad it gets.. it's honestly worth it just to be able to watch such a gem and others of similar quality. Exquisite stuff.
Thank You.
1:21:15 Sergio Leone
1:24:26 Jean Luc Godard

2:44:24 David Lynch

Great video, but if you have Miyazaki on the list(and rightfully so) then the lack of Walt Disney on the list is a oversight.
