đ The 101 best sex scenes in movies of all-time Written by Tom Huddleston, Geoff Andrew, Dave Calhoun, Cath Clarke, Trevor Johnston, Joshua Rothkopf, Keith Uhlich and Matthew Singer
Even if youâre an espresso-sipping, chain-smoking Francophile, youâre going to find something that surprises you. To make it easier for you to take the leap, weâve ranked the 100 best French movies ever made, from famous crowd-pleasers like AmĂ©lie to the more challenging â but no less rewarding â work of mavericks like Jean-Luc Godard and AgnĂšs Varda. But if you continue to immerse yourself, youâll also discover pleasures unlike those found anywhere else in world cinema. If you dive into the French film canon, youâll encounter plenty of philosophical musings, arty embellishments and impenetrable characters.
But in popular consciousness, âFrench filmâ is effectively a slur â coded language for âpretentiousnessâ. Few countries can claim to have exerted such a strong influence over global cinema the New Hollywood revolution of the 1970s wouldnât have happened without the nouvelle vague.
#FINAL FANTASY SPIRITS WITHIN IMDB MOVIE#
After all, itâs where movie culture, if not moviemaking itself, began: the first commercial film screening in history occurred at the Grand CafĂ© in Paris in 1895. That was just asking for trouble.Every serious cinephile eventually finds themselves in France. And I still think the film would have done just fine at the box office if only the (doomed) distributing company hadn't been called 'Square Pictures'. These range from interesting tidbits to some more questionable inclusions, and together they just about double the documentary's running time. On top of all this information, there are a whole bunch of short interactive side tracks (I lost count at 17) that the viewers can choose to pop up and interrupt the documentary. So Randy Thom uses animal sounds and when these don't suffice, he makes some himself. Sakaguchi wanted a unique sound for this movie. It turns out you need a lot of footdust when a crowd of phantoms is running, so that becomes some people's day job on this show as well. Spencer Knapp goes deep sea diving to simulate the effects of the High Density Gas (HDG) as seen in the film. For instance, Takao is supervisor of the Phantom project. On a project like this, everybody has a cool sounding job. It turns out that one of them, Matt Hackett, was the facial inspiration for General Hein and not Jack Nicholson (or voice actor Jimmy Woods). Bits from the blooper reel pop up again and as usual all the whiz kids and animators are recognizable by wearing goatees or big soul patches. What we get instead is a lot of useful insight into the development of the movie as conceived by Sakaguchi san that is all about the Gaia theory (in fact, the original title of the film was Gaia). Most of the big name stars do make an appearance, but none are on screen for very long and some can literally be missed in the blink of an eye. Don't expect a lot of input from the voice cast going in. And it leads directly into the extra features menu, with emphasis on this 30 minute main documentary (which in my book justifies me writing almost an entire paragraph about it). Unlike other DVD menu's that you want to skip immediately and get to the content, this one has so much stuff to look at it's a shame you can't pause and rewind it. The second, extra filled disc that comes with some versions of Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within is almost as inventively done as the movie itself, starting off with a brilliant little intro that sees Aki and other animated characters walk off the set and into the real world.
Luckily a lot of them introduce themselves. This fast paced documentary has it all: production art, pre-viz, block models, motion capture footage, boards & blasts, concepts, but what it doesn't have is any body's name on screen whenever one of the behind the scenes people speaks.
