How does this make High Noon subversive or marxist?
it was written by a marxist and was an allegory for blacklisting, even the duke thought so
ignorant gaylord supports communism
enjoy your pinko movies, comrade
Worst bait ever or most "intellectual" post ever? The real question is why would it matter if the film is marxist or not. Still dumbfounded by niggas believing the unironically CIA funded marxist devil, atheist devil, communist baby eater propaganda in 2026.
ABSOLUTELY NOT
Impossible question.
because marxists want to destroy our way of life and, more importantly, make bad movies like high noon and parasite
Both good movies. Which way of life?
High Noon is alright, Hawks' criticism of it is not wrong though.
Those westerns you listed on the previous thread are all better than it indeed though.
i will now stop responding to this piece of communist filth
the only decent film he ever made was el dorado so idk what he's so proud of. westerns should be apolitical action movies with guys in brownface, great cinematography and possibly a cute girl who mostly just stands there
and all better than rio bravo, which is just as bad as high noon for pretty much the same reasons. if those were the first two westerns anyone had seen i think it'd kill someone's interest in the genre permanently
Based Farmiga appreciator
You'd enjoy la chinoise by Godard.
i will now stop responding to this piece of communist filth
I'm not even a leftist, but which way of life do you mean? I wonder how does the system help you.
wrong, i've seen that and thought it was bad. obviously you also need a decent budget and a large crew to make a good western
they want to end bourgeois property ownership and take our money away to feed poor people
I haven’t seen High Noon since I was 17 but I didn’t pick up on any subtext (did not learn the history in school) and the film itself left me uninterested and underwhelmed though I felt it was solid for the time.
they want to end bourgeois property ownership and take our money away to feed poor people
Unironically, that sounds like not having read Marx at all, but that doesn't even answer my question: which way of life will end.
dis nigga thinks the marxists don't want to overthrow the bourgeoisie and install a dictatorship of the proleteriat
A dictatorship of black Americans over world rule. That is the end goal.
I felt it was solid for the time
for 1952??? fuck no
What else is there to watch in 1952 as an American when the only J film you get at that time is Roshomon.
I'm just saying that sounds very much like a stock take on marxism. But you haven't answered the question.
Irl marxists are not any better, they literally don’t think about the implications of property violations if it is done to them vs some rando. This has been recorded many times.
Still evading the question. I'll just pass and assume you were trolling since the beginning and actually have no opinion on "the way of life which will disappear".

So you self identify as bourgeois? But anyway, marxism is not even a problem in itself, as its methods are very improbable to ever work. Modern day commies are kinda like the chinese: economically capitalistic while keeping a traditionally leftist emphasis for government and societal direction. The commie menace is really a thing of the 20th century, hence why it's weird to be "a marxist" in this time and day.
oh god i've been talking to /philm/ this whole time
it was written by a marxist
Ad Hominem. The work itself doesn't have any reference to the marxist ideology... or does it?
Yes, I expect some level of conversation in here. If I wanted some non-cerebral "discussion" I'd go to Anon Babble
you know we have a board for philosophy, right? go on Anon Babble. you can redefine what marxist means over there
You were the one that started talking about marxism without actually knowing what the fuck it means and how it applies today, and also don't understand /philm/. Another L.
i do know what it fucking means and as i was referring to someone from the 1950s i think it's pretty obvious i wasn't talking about "modern day commies" that have nothing to do with marxist theory that you're obviously ignorant of.
Another L
holy shit this is the guy who keeps calling me sus, shut up

that have nothing to do with marxist theory that you're obviously ignorant of.
Lol no. Of course, everything about you screams sus. I actually think you don't know much about anything and just posture as a knower when in reality you are pretty ignorant on both cinema and life in general. And the thing that makes you irritating is that you expect people to eat the bs you spout about watching 19h of films a day like we were children or something, or blabbing about the marxists when you don't even know anything about their philosophies beyond "they wanna destroy our way of life!!1!". L tat on your forehead.
you know we have a board for philosophy
WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY?!?!!
You BASTARD! You’re stifling discussion! You must let us talk off topic!!! We’re having fun!! The conversation is FLOWING. You’re being SELFISH!!! LEAVE NOW!!!!!!!
There is a new Mike Adriano joint with her. Just watched it low res, gonna wait for high quality upload.
lol your such a faggit lmao
Ass status?
I actually think you don't know much about anything and just posture as a knower when in reality you are pretty ignorant on both cinema and life in general.
that's you lmao, that's literally what you're doing. i actually do know these things which is why i talk about them, i don't talk when you're going on about things idc or know about
you expect people to eat the bs you spout about watching 19h of films a day
i don't do that every day but i do do it. i often stop watching films for up to a week afterwards after a good marathon
or blabbing about the marxists when you don't even know anything about their philosophies beyond "they wanna destroy our way of life!!1!"
i know what the dictatorship of the proleteriat is, i know about the marxist dialectic and i know that marx published his thesis on hegel. in short, i obviously know more than you. the fact that you have yet to recite a single point of marxist theory or ideology is just proving my point, that i obviously know more than you.
Yeah bro, whatever you say. Keep marathoning kino 48h per sesh. I guess you're also a fencing pro? Olympic medalist too?
couldn't even pretend to know anything about marxism, huh??? you just said it was 19 hours btw and i've never claimed to be a fencer or any of your other retarded shit. keep coping that you're an intellectual when you're too scared to go on Anon Babble because you're a pseud who can't even be bothered to read a fucking book and learn something about the topics you want to talk about
Brother, I've got a degree on literature and have read literally hundreds of books. I don't need to prove shit, specially to you.
degree on literature
you should put it on a wall instead lol. i also don't believe you considering how you obviously don't know anything about marxism AND YET ARE TRYING TO ARGUE THAT YOU DO???
I don't need to prove shit
that's what a discussion is dumdum lol
Dingo embarrassing himself
so it happened AGAIN
Well, it's a better thing to have than a Phd in Bullshitology, Big D. See ya later at like 6 am UK hour, I guess.
haters stay hatin' i guess
cutting and running
this means i win. you know what would be even better btw? you not arguing about things you obviously know NOTHING about lol
Any links to numb the pain?
Yeah, you win. 72h sesh when. I'll check your LB tomorrow when you log in the thousand joints you watched this week. Gotta give it to ya, you got discipline.
oh are you going to take a screenshot of me re-rating toy story or something??? just completely given up on marxism now you've been exposed huh????? /philm/ is no more, thankfully
All my niggas nazis, nigga Heil Hitler
Fuck yeah nigga, let's suck our cousins' dicks! 1488!
