New French Extremity
Favs/dislikes: 2:0. New French Extremity (New French Extremism or, informally, New French Extreme) is a term coined by Artforum critic James Quandt for a collection of transgressive films by French directors at the turn of the 21st century. The said filmmakers were also discussed by Jonathan Romney in The Independent. While Quandt intended the term as pejorative, many so labeled have produced critically acclaimed work. David Fear indicates that the lack of humanity beneath the horror represented in these films leads to their stigma, arguing that Bruno Dumont's Flanders (2006) "contains enough savage violence and sexual ugliness" to remain vulnerable to the New French Extremity tag, but "a soul also lurks underneath the shocks".[3] Nick Wrigley indicates that Dumont was merely chastised for "letting everybody down" who expected him to be the heir to Robert Bresson. Tim Palmer has also written about these films, describing them as constituting a "cinema of the body". Palmer has argued that such films reflect a large scale stylistic trajectory, a kind of avant-garde among like-minded directors, from Catherine Breillat to François Ozon, along with contemporary figures such as Marina de Van, Claire Denis, Dumont, Gaspar Noé, and many others. Palmer places this tendency within the complex ecosystem of French cinema, underlining the conceptual diversity and artistic scope in French cinema today. -

Watchlist since 2011 (most acclaimed)
Favs/dislikes: 1:0. Challenge for 2024 The (arguably) most acclaimed unwatched movies since 2011 (the year I started actively going to arthouse cinemas), mostly but not entirely based on TSPDT. Mostly made for the catchup of the years after 2013 where my cinema-going was rather inconsistent and I often didn't follow recent releases in my movie-watching. 10 movies per year, 5 for 2011-2013. Goals: watch the top 3 of each year, watch 60 overall from the list.
