#RemyReviews 'The White Reindeer' (1952) patchy #folklore film in which a newlywed woman goes to the local shaman to get help with her love life & is instead turned into a white reindeer vampire... but not as good as that sounds my #movie #review @framerated.co.uk 🦌 medium.com/framerated/t...

black and white film still: a figure raises approaches another swathed figure or a strange antlered shrine in a snowfield where numerous antlers protrude from the snowscape

another of my all-time favourite artworks: “I Like America & America Likes Me” aka 'Coyote' by Joseph Beuys (1974–1976) incorporates performance, installation, #photography & conceptual art... my article @signifier.bsky.social asks where is the actual #art here? 🐺 medium.com/signifier/i-...

promotional poster for Coyote: in the dominant black and white photograph, Joseph Beuys reclines on a bed of straw, holding a walking cane, in the corner of a well-lit room with a coyote standing nearby looking toward the camera

Something I'm very aware of as a reviewer of so many films from around the world - often the original language, the dub, & the subtitles tell completely different stories... current AIs have no chance with such cultural subtleties.

#RemyReviews 'Ninja Wars' (1982) "...convoluted chronicle of ninjas vs. sorcery as an outcast seeks to defeat a power-hungry samurai who is in the thrall of an evil sorcerer & his five magic monks." my #movie #review of 4K restoration on #Bluray @framerated.co.uk 🫖 medium.com/framerated/n...

four film stills: Hiroyuki Sanada & Noriko Watanabe as Ladu Okyo are in a dark place (they're hiding inside a giant Buddha statue); Hiroyuki Sanada as Jotaro faces down the five immortal monks in the pool at the foot of a very decorative waterfall; Noriko Watanabe parts her veil to look toward the camera; Sonny Chiba as Shinzaemon, Akira Nakao as Danjo Hisahide & Mikio Narita as Kashin Koji - all with very different attitudes conveyed in their expressions.
