I remember catching a late night showing on TV in the early 80's pre-restoration. It was trimmed to fit a 90 minute timeslot (including commercials). Not only did it not make sense, but the film print was also so faded that it looked a muddy pink and brown.

We watch Netflix and Amazon movies, and other streaming services. But because of the ads and asking us to pay to view movies many of which we have seen our entires lives for free. We have branced out to free movies from libraries and any where else its free. we also really enjoy movies and series from Japan, Korean and China, Thiland. I really love seeing the world from very diiferent prespectives. And hate the reinterduction of commercial ads.

Classy lady. I watched her on The Robert Cummings Show and Mildred Pierce. One of a kind. Interesingly she agreed with Christina Crawford's abusive experience with her mom Joan. Recently her grandson Casey Le Londe is trying to improve Joan Crawfords image by trying to shine up her persona. He does speaking engagements and interviews now. His mother was one of the twins she adopted.

Thanks for the articulate analysis. This is a stunningly well-crafted film. It's categorized as a "who done it" but while the mystery is what propels the action, it's really first and foremost a biting satire on the nature of Hollywood personalities, where the scriptwriters clearly feel there are no interpersonal relationships that aren't financial/transactional .... which is why the closing music of "Friends" is so perfectly apt.

I have the Spanish blu ray which is the version that apparently is selling the most. The movie's racism is NOTHING compared to movies like, say, Jezebel or The Little Foxes. My issue with it is merely that it just isn't all that good -- it's no The Ugly Dauschund but it isn't a Bedknobs and Broomsticks either. I object to it being vaulted. Let people see it! I was hoping that Tokyo Disneyland would stay firm in their refusal to change, but I guess they gave in, too. By the way, I would also love for Disney to release correct versions of Fantasia, without their self censorship. Original versions don't even exist on their legacy VHS/Beta or Laserdiscs, unfortunately.

The problem with the current studio system is that budgets are too high, insanely high aversion to risk, lack of genuine creatives in the writing room and that the executives don’t know what they’re doing. The whole system will fall apart in the next 10 years or so if they don’t clear house and follow a different business model.

Yes, Paramount was the cable giant par excellance until the new streaming model catastrophically disrupted the cable business. They put all their eggs in Viacom and Tom Cruise. Baby Reindeer is the grim reaper striking fear in many a legacy studio. It is as anti American as it can get, and as UK content is an exprrssion of liberal anti-Americanism and anti-MAGA, Hollywood is quaking in its boots. Hollywood is screwed like Biden in the CNN debate.
@KawafuchiSensei Ай бұрын
Baby Reindeer is interesting for many reasons as you have cited above. However, it IS low budget, with I believe the entire series being budgeted less than one episode of The Acolyte. As such, as a financial model it is okay (niche made good). On the fringes, which is where renaissances start, Hollywood is not screwed. Certainly at least SOME of the studios have pivoted far away from the anti-American, anti-midwest, anti-audience ethos that can only reign when things are going exceptionally well. Unfortunately, during the heyday, too many bad projects were green lit that have now spent too much money (meaning MORE than WB had blown on Batgirl) to just abandon. It will be interesting to see what Disney attempts with Snow White. To me, they are throwing very good and needed money after the bad, but there's always 2025 for another take over attempt -- this time likely to be hostile.

@@KawafuchiSensei Angel Studios is the one to watch; it is the only response to the British challenge.

The problem is that they, like most of the rest of Hollywood, thought that streaming was a license to print money, no matter what they made, because of China. When China pulled out, as Japan did in the 90s (indie production companies like Carolco and Orion) and Germany did in the early 2000s (for first run syndication), it left the town completely flummoxed even though this happens on a depressingly regular basis.

Great video! For me personally, working on my books, I like to think of the midpoint as the moment where the Hero's Ugly Truth is demonstrated to them. Not said, but seen, cause it's not really excepted until that 75% breaking point. This Ugly Truth idea came from a Michael Arndt video, and it was like a big light bulb for me! It might be the same thing as "Need" as opposed to Want, but Ugly Truth does something visceral for me.

I made a comment below to agree with one of many posts here that disagree with your suggestion that the restored version was botched. And to all those who posted here, I wanted to share a valuable link to an interview of James Mason, shortly before the new restored version was officially presented. In the beginning of the interview and near the end Mr Mason seems to infer he has seen the restored version and praises the restorers for the work done, using stills artfully and creatively to tell the story visually and align with the VoiceOver. He also relays facts about the original film and puts 100% of the blame all on Harry Warner, the brother of Jack Warner. As Harry wanted to make more money. And Mr Mason states as a fact he is certain that Harry demanded the film be cut. He mentions George Cukor was out of the country at the time and in no way would have allowed this if he knew Harry was doing this. Mr Mason said he heard nothing about the film being too long for viewers. In fact he said the audience loved the original version. Mr Mason did praise Jack Warner for having the courage to do a 3 hour version knowing it was a masterpiece, but blames Warner for being stupid as a film leader to not have done an intermission. Instead he listened to Harry. Mr Mason also gives credit to Sid Luft and to Judy. He states that he had no issues with Judy during the making of this film. And furthermore he is extremely pleased with the results of using stills in the sequence actions as so creatively done that he feels future film makers may copy this effect! I could be wrong but in the very beginning I think Mr Mason relays to the interviewer that he will not be present for the official showing of the restored version. I am very disappointed in your accusations that the restored version was botched. Considering it was done during a time when there was limited or no computer technology, it's quite amazing the segue done. I respect your opinion but I agree with the many here who feel it was beautifully done. As Mr Mason himself praises the restoration... kzfaq.info/get/bejne/htR_ecSl1pO5c30.html

@KawafuchiSensei 2 ай бұрын
There is no correct or incorrect answer to this. Different writers will approach it from different angles. The only thing that is a definite in doing creative work is to never bore your audience. It also depends on who your likely buyer is. For example, creating a lower budget feature film for an A24 is very different from a cost-no-object tentpole. In my own experience, I found that backstory can be introduced during the course of your regular story when its revelation becomes relevant. Think of Baby Reindeer -- Episode 4's revelations could have come much earlier or even as late as the final episode because knowing exactly why Donnie allowed certain things to happen to him works well in a number of places. It also depends onw hat the intent would be on the part of both the filmmakers AND Netflix (and any potential advertiser who might like the enthused audience but might NOT like to have the story associated with their product).

This was a very well presented lecture. I graduated film school a little over a decade ago primarily for screenwriting and in all my time there they did not tell me how to get a job. I remember even asking if you're supposed to get an agent or something and still didn't even get a clear answer on that. That would another good topic to discuss. I came across your video because of the idea of backward engineering a script. I'm one of those people that can come up with ideas all day everyday but struggles at discerning which ideas are worth pursuing and which to just let go so I can get one of them done. So I've been approaching my next screenplay as figuring out what are elements that make a screenplay obviously good and creating a story to fit that framework. As a big fan of existential creators like David Lynch and Charlie Kaufman, I think the best films are often not what I would call obviously good, but taking this approach is a way to be more decisive and work on a project more likely to actually sell. A great script might not hook the audience from the very first moment, but like what you say, it's better to hook the audience from the beginning and thus I feel an obviously great script must have the goal of hooking the audience from the first moment. I think in general, an obviously great script is almost always going to follow convention or at least be very coherent about it.

It sounds like you have the makings of a development person, a distribution person, or a producer. That is where ideas and synergies are key. It is amazing how important a good foundation is -- the saying, "if it isn't on the page, it isn't on the stage" still is today, but too many people ignore it in favor of spectacle.
