Kolar's Faroe Islands
Favs/dislikes: 0:0. Cinema of the Faroe Islands The cinema of the Faroe Islands does not have a long history.The Faroe Islands has a small population, and due to the high initial cost of movie making, the islands’ cinema history is modest. (On the other hand, writing and book publishing is very popular). The first director of the Faroe Islands was Katrin Ottarsdóttir. Her first film set in the Faroe Islands was Atlantic Rhapsody in 1989. However, the first feature films in Faroese language with full Faroese castings (“Rannvà”, “Heystblómur” and “Pall Fángi” were made in the mid-seventies by Miguel M. Hidalgo, a Spaniard who stayed for several years in the Faroe Islands. Recently self-taught Johan Rimestad directed the self-financed feature Karrybollarnir, which takes place in Tórshavn. Faroese films or set in Faroe Islands on Mubi (More films coming soon…) Missing from icm & imdb: 1. Heystblómur (1976 Miguel M. Hidalgo) 5. Páll Fangi (1977 Miguel M. Hidalgo) 6.

La vida útil's Top 20 Argentinian Films of the '80s
Favs/dislikes: 0:0. In English (via Google Translate): We decided to make a kind of canon over the period we were revising. For us it was a deep viewing, an experience at times not very rewarding and for others a little fun. It was even more intense than can be perceived in the texts. We could not choose twenty films that we fully defend to use as a declaration of principles. There are not so many. We have some, and we have pieces of others. Each has its own peculiarity and all, even the most horrible of all, have something, a resistance that persists in the face of the categorization of “cinema of the eighties”, with all the characteristics already recognized. Perhaps that is our declaration of principles: to find the particular, the unclassifiable, the surplus of the crystallized of a paradigm, in each of the films we see. In original Spanish: Decidimos hacer una especie de canon sobre el período que estuvimos revisitando. Para nosotros fue un visionado hondo, una experiencia por momentos poco gratificante y por otros un poco divertida. Incluso fue más intenso de lo que se puede percibir en los textos. No pudimos elegir veinte películas que defendamos de manera completa para usar de declaración de principios. No hay tantas. Tenemos algunas, y tenemos pedazos de otras. Cada una tiene su particularidad y todas, incluso las más horrible de todas, tiene algo, una resistencia que persiste frente a la categorización de “cine de los ochenta”, con todas las características ya reconocidas. Quizás esa sea nuestra declaración de principios: encontrar lo particular, lo inclasificable, lo que sobra de lo cristalizado de un paradigma, en cada una de las películas que vemos. Note: Some films are from the 1990s, either in the source or in imdb, or both; I don't know why they're in the list.

NZ Herald's The Best Kiwi Films Since The Piano
Favs/dislikes: 0:0. 26 Apr, 2019 10:18 PM By: Tom Augustine It's been 26 years since Jane Campion's [url=https://www.icheckmovies.com/movies/the+piano/]The Piano[/url] graced the big screen, arguably the finest film ever made in New Zealand and a masterpiece of the New Zealand Gothic genre, the most revered and influential of New Zealand cinema movements. Its shadow looms large, an almost impossibly beautiful film that is complex, poetic and haunting all at once. And yet - in the wake of this colossal cinematic achievement from one of the very finest Kiwi artists, New Zealand film has continued to pursue greatness - and often achieved it. We thought it was a great time to consult local critics to come up with our picks for the 25 best films made in New Zealand since The Piano.

Playback's Top Ten Canadian Films of the Decade
Favs/dislikes: 0:0. Your picks for the top ten Canadian films of the Decade We asked you to name your picks for top Canadian films of the last decade and you did. And what a list... By Brendan Christie December 10, 2010 The top ten films of the new millennium In 2002, Playback polled the industry in order to find out what you thought were the greatest Canadian films of all time. With the first decade of the new millennium done and dusted, we thought it was time to check in for an update of sorts, and name the top films of the last 10 years. We opened the Playback site for suggestions and received hundreds of film submissions – truly a testament to the strength and variety of Canadian film in the past decade. In the end, two films tied for top spot – Jean-Marc Vallée’s quirky C.R.A.Z.Y. and Sarah Polley’s heart-wrenching Away From Her. Interestingly, Polley, who wrote and directed Away From Her, also starred in our previous top film, Atom Egoyan’s classic The Sweet Hereafter (1997). Also, as your top 10 selection included two feature documentaries, we included an extra two films in the list so that the fiction folk would have a complete top-10 list as well. -
Portraits of America: Democracy on Film
Favs/dislikes: 0:0. Recently completing one of the longest shoots of his career with The Irishman, most other directors would consider that an accomplishment enough, but in between takes, Martin Scorsese somehow found time to construct a new curriculum as part of his “The Story of Movies” film course, produced with his company Film Foundation. This latest edition is “Portraits of America: Democracy on Film” and is free for students. However, if one would just like to follow along with their own personal screenings, the full list is available. “We all need to make sense of what we’re seeing. For young people born into this world now, it’s absolutely crucial that they get guided,” Scorsese says (via IndieWire). “They have to learn how to sort the differences between art and pure commerce, between cinema and content, between the secrets of images that are individually crafted and the secrets of images that are mass-produced. We want to teach our students to try and be critical thinkers, and now we have to teach them to be critical viewers as well.” Beginning with The Immigrant Experience and, of course, Charlie Chaplin’s The Immigrant, we move through The American Laborer, Civil Rights, The American Woman, Politicians and Demagogues, Soldiers and Patriots, The Press, then conclude with The Auteurs, and cheekily end with one of Scorsese’s own features. For students the course includes a number of chapters within each section for deeper study. Module 1: The Immigrant Experience (Films 1-5) Module 2: The American Laborer (Films 6-10) Module 3: Civil Rights (Films 11-14) Module 4: The American Woman (Films 15-21)* Module 5: Politicians and Demagogues (Films 22-25) Module 6: Soldiers and Patriots (Films 26-32)** Module 7: The Press (Films 33-37) Module 8: The Auteurs (Films 38-42) *Films 15-17 are grouped as a single chapter entitled "Through a Woman's Lens". **Films 27-29 are grouped as a single chapter entitled "Private Snafu's Private War - three Snafu Shorts from WWII". I don't know which 3 shorts are featured, so I added the first three produced. Full Curriculum here: https://www.storyofmovies.org/login?returnUrl=%2fportraits-of-america-democracy-on-film -

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 30 Asian Zombie Movies That Are Worth Your Time
Favs/dislikes: 1:0. March 25, 2019 By Don Anelli Ever since it lurched onto the silver screen in 1932, the zombie has become one of the most prominent horror figures in the genre. As they are responsible for numerous adaptations, retooling and reboots over the years, the popularity of the genre has waned over the years here in America which is pretty much barely an issue in Asia. With plenty of incredibly enjoyable titles in their long history that simply don’t get the publicity in America due to way too much coming out here already, it’s time to offer a spotlight on some of these under-appreciated and overlooked gems from Asia. The Haunted Cop Shop 1 & 2 are counted as a single entry -
AMP's Ten Masterful Asian Film Trilogies
Favs/dislikes: 1:0. August 4, 2018 Panos Kotzathanasis Movie trilogies have emerged in world cinema during the last decade or so, as one of the most favorite medium of films, and probably, as a countermeasure to the growing popularity of TV series. Evidently, this does not mean that there have not been trilogies in the past (who can forget “The Godfather”, “Star Wars” and many more), but it seems like, at the moment, this is where the movie industry is heading. In Asian cinema, though, trilogies have been a favorite medium since the 50’s, with their impact continuing to these days, although not in the same extend as in Hollywood. Filmmakers of the magnitutde of Satyajit Ray and Yasuhiro Ozu felt that a single movie could not contain their vision, and proceeded on shooting trilogies that include some of the all time, international masterpieces. The tendency continues to later decades, with a number of the most acclaimed Asian directors presenting their own, either loose (Park Chan-wook and Wong Kar-wai) or as a single story presented in parts (Infernal Affairs) Here are 10 of the greatest trilogies of Asian cinema, in a list that focuses on diversity in themes and aesthetics, although not so much on country of origin. -
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. -
