  • The Fall

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Fall_(2006_film)

    Singh stressed the importance of on-location filming and lack of special effects, as he found that modern techniques would not age well in comparison.

    When shooting scenes of the blue city in Jodhpur, Tarsem provided locals with blue paint to refresh the paint on their houses. This alternative to post-production effects resulted in the vibrant blue of the city in the film.

    This entire film is practically a love letter to early film practical special effects. Is it the best story? No, the story is flat in many respects. Yet the film to this day is visually stunning, and stands as one of my favorite films due to it’s visually captivating presence. The film surely does have small amounts of modern special effects, but by and large Singh worked very hard at producing mostly practical effects.

    I know Seinfeld is just a piece of shit, but…

    Isn’t Patinkin saying as much because he sees the genocide being committed in Gaza and thinks that it will hurt Jewish people worldwide to have such a heinous crime hanging over their shared culture? That he’s rightfully worried that the world will turn on Jewish people worldwide after seeing the horrors of what Netanyahu has done in Gaza?

    A quote from Patinkin:

    “How could it be done to you and your ancestors, and you turn around and do it to someone else?”

    Huh, sounds like he understand the situation pretty well and isn’t peddling total bullshit like Seinfeld.
