Grim (1985) (Short, 8mins)

Takashi Ito
A sensuous ghost haunts a flat in this unusual ode to plain, generic areas.
"Film is capable of presenting unrealistic world as a vivid reality and creating a strange space peculiar to the media. My major intention is to change the ordinary every day life scenes and draw the audience (myself) into a vortex of supernatural illusion by exercising the magic of films."
- Takashi Ito, in Image Forum, Oct. 1984

Punishment Park (1971)

https://archive.org/download/punishment-park-1971/Punishment%20Park%20-%201971.mp4
Director: Peter Watkins
'In this fictional documentary, U.S. prisons are at capacity, and President Nixon declares a state of emergency. All new prisoners, most of whom are connected to the antiwar movement, are now given the choice of jail time or spending three days in Punishment Park, where they will be hunted for sport by federal authorities. The prisoners invariably choose the latter option, but learn that, between the desert heat and the brutal police officers, their chances of survival are slim.'

David Lynch Cooks Quinoa (2007)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=11p0y9z1XOU
Director: David Lynch
(Short documentary, 21mins)
full recipe:
Yield: 1 bowl
Cooking Time: 17 minutes
Ingredients: 1/2 cup quinoa
1 1/2 cups organic broccoli (chilled, from bag)
1 cube vegetable bullion
Braggs Liquid Aminos
Extra virgin olive oil
Sea salt
Preparation:
* Fill medium saucepan with about an inch of fresh water.
* Set pan on stove, light a nice hot flame add several dashes of sea salt.
* Look at the quinoa. It’s like sand, this quinoa. It’s real real tight little grains, but it’s going to puff up.
* Unwrap bullion cube, bust it up with a small knife, and let it wait there. It’ll be happy waiting right there.
* When water comes to a boil, add quinoa and cover pan with lid. Reduce heat and simmer for 8 minutes.
* Meanwhile, retrieve broccoli from refrigerator and set aside, then fill a fine crystal wine glass—one given to you by Agnes and Maya from Lódz, Poland—with red wine, ‘cause this is what you do when you’re making quinoa. Go outside, sit, take a smoke and think about all the little quinoas bubbling away in the pan.
* Add broccoli, cover and let cook for an additional 7 minutes.
* Meanwhile, go back outside and tell the story about the train with the coal-burning engine that stopped in a barren, dust-filled landscape on a moonless Yugoslavian night in 1965. The story about the frog moths and the small copper coin that became one room-temperature bottle of violet sugar water, six ice-cold Coca-colas, and handfuls and handfuls of silver coins.
* Turn off heat, add bullion to quinoa and stir with the tip of the small knife you used to bust up the bullion.
* Scoop quinoa into bowl using a spoon. Drizzle with liquid amino acids and olive oil. Serve and enjoy.

The Pervert's Guide to Ideology (2012)

Director: Sophie Fiennes
'The Pervert's Guide to Ideology is a 2012 British documentary film directed by Sophie Fiennes and written and presented by Slovenian philosopher and psychoanalytic theorist Slavoj Žižek.[2] It is a sequel to Fiennes's 2006 documentary The Pervert's Guide to Cinema. Though the film follows the frameworks of its predecessor, this film's emphasis is on ideology itself. Through psychoanalysis Žižek explores "the mechanisms that shape what we believe and how we behave.
... Full Metal Jacket, The Sound of Music to the political dimensions of Jaws. Taxi Driver, Zabriskie Point, The Searchers, The Dark Knight, John Carpenter's They Live ("one of the forgotten masterpieces of the Hollywood Left"), Titanic, Kinder Surprise eggs, verité news footage, the emptiness of Beethoven's "Ode to Joy," and propaganda epics from Nazi Germany and Soviet Russia all inform Žižek's psychoanalytic-cinematic argument.'

Nice! I suppose the idea is just a basic curation of available internetarchive (and some other sources) stuff. The criteria is also basic: stuff I like or want to watch lol.
IA can be difficult to sift through. Hence this npub. And luckily kinostr.npub.pro shows the posts in a really nice way. I will add some more genre tags at the top at some point.
Tbh I cant stand commentary during films.
But maybe I’d be curious to read or hear e.g. nostr:npub1xtscya34g58tk0z605fvr788k263gsu6cy9x0mhnm87echrgufzsevkk5s comments while watching/listening to a e.g. tech podcast/interview.
You could have a scenario where you have film studies notes, or the director, director of photography etc as separate note tracks to pick through. Like a dvd menu. Something useful like that. But not sure I personally would find too much use for social notes on films 🤔
Wonder if it could be useful tho. I suppose I probably wouldn't use it unless it was a rewatch. Could be interesting in the same way dvd commentary tracks can be.
(Also a bit like Dark Souls online notes for films and other stuff lol)

The Electronic Super Highway: Nam June Paik in the Nineties (1995)

https://ubu.com/media/video/PAIK_ELECTRONIC_SUPER_HIGHWAY.mp4
'Jud Yalkut
1995, 40 min, color, sound
This portrait of Nam June Paik was produced as a "video catalogue" for the national touring exhibition The Electronic Super Highway, which premiered at The Museum of Art in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. This work features recent installations, historical background and interviews with the artist. The title refers to a 1974 report that Paik prepared for the Rockefeller Foundation, entitled "Media Planning for the Post Industrial Society." In it he predicted much of the technological transformation we have experienced in the past twenty years, and urged the creation of what he termed the Electronic Super Highway. For this exhibition, Paik has created his own version of the "Cybertown," or smalltown America in the electronic age, a new community founded on moving images.'

The Girl Chewing Gum (1976)

https://www.ubu.com/media/video/Smith-John_%20The-Girl-Chewing-Gum_1976.mp4
'The Girl Chewing Gum is a twelve-minute 16 mm film made by British artist John Smith in 1976, when he was a postgraduate student at the Royal College of Art in London. Shot primarily in Dalston, close to the artist’s home, the film is at once a portrait of street life in East London and a wryly funny critique of the myth of documentary neutrality.'
