I watched Kobayashi in his prime when I was a child, and I am watching Kobayashi in his prime as an adult. Guess some things never change...
Also, Netflix does really know how to hype up, host and livestream events. They should try boxing. Like a youtuber vs Mike Tyson or something like that. Would sell well, probably.
Film School Drop Outs Challenge, Week 1: Alice Guy-Blaché
As part of my initiation through the film history, I decided to start this challenge choosing Alice Guy's films, and it was a great decision.
I've seen films by the Lumière Brothers and Georges Méliès before, but I didn't know Alice Guy's works.
In Les résultats du feminisme, I discovered a wonderful director who can film astonishing projects and, at the same time, attach morals and/or emotions with them.

The Best Years of our Lives is one of the most interesting portraits of the war consequences in the Hollywood cinema. Fred (Dana Andrews) provides a powerful insight of the PTSD suffered by Air Force veterans like the proper James Stewart once experimented. Homer (Harold Russell) shows the painful drama of the comeback, while a magnificent Al (Fredric March) completes the film with a comic undertone.
William Wyler was able to tell the hardest stories without becoming artificial or falling into a valley of tears.
