I liked the sex scene at the end
Need Lilith gf.
I thought she was the prostitute of babylon (aka the mother harlot)
same thing
This was the directors wife.
Only time I've ever been attracted to a French woman.
Happy Halloween.
this scene was good but the scene of her floating down was too over the top, they should have cut that to make the reveal more subtle
What about ~~*Eva Green*~~?
Also, you know they like anal because they're French.
Eva's rat face and gross excuse of a smile ruins her for me.
She married a pedo rapist?
Polanski has rizz, apparently.
She looks there like a faceapp filter of Dolph Lundgren.
Very hot in Frantic
i thought she was literally satan
Whoever She is I want to go on occult adventures with Her.
So did Polanski.
>Wojciech Kilar
Don't forget, same dude that wrote the soundtrack for Bram Stoker's Dracula.
pure mumbo jumbo
BOO
Did the wheelchair woman go mad after knocking him out?
There's a character like this in Foucault's Pendulum
Love it
The actor did a good job but I kept thinking it was supposed to be Christopher Lee
>criticizes rich occultists for their attempt to summon the devil with mumbo jumbo
>proceeds to attempt to summon the devil with his own mumbo jumbo
Balkin is such a pseud
>I like books
What boos?
>Just books
The book was unironically better than the movie but only if you like Dumas.
she was in the book i think
I thought it was prostitute of babylon and he was the devil without knowing it just based on the statement the old guy makes at the begining that he was always fond of stories where the protagonist was lucifer
it's alright. a little bit goofy. depp carries it the whole way
bad cinematography. looks like a tv mini series
Pure campiness, Depp kills it in this role.
what a pseud! You've watched too many YouTube vidyas
It’s a Cinemaphile favourite
>shit film
>tv favorite
yeah that makes sense
Mesmerizing
the hell was up with the ending
he fricked the devil
she had great breasts
She was the prostitute of babylon, not the devil.
i quite liked it
super comfy
ESL thread
I own it on DVD but lost the DVD so technically I can only say that bought it on DVD.
It’s dangerously based.
great chase sequences
the ghost writer is its sister movie
I had a thing for Lena Olin after seeing this movie.
for me it was The Unbearable Lightness of Being
I still haven't seen it.
definitely worth it, just for her wearing a bowler hat.
or the photo shoot seduction with her and Juliette Binoche
She was a cutie too.
very
I was late to that party too. Didn't really notice her until the English Patient. Where I also noticed Kristen Scott Thomas. Sheesh.
She's great too. There's a lot of good stuff with 90s euro films - the end of the cold war, the end of the millenium, classic beautiful women...
Oh well
I think Emmanuelle Beart gets posted around here a bit because of La Belle Noiseuse but this pic is from Un Couer en hiver
Ooh never heard of her.
i liked it until the moronic scene where the chick started doing karate and the guy ran away and she let him escape for no reason
it was one of my favourite teenage movies. i spent many loads on emmanuelle seigner.
I'm in the mood for a girl with green eyes.
I love her thick eyebrows too.
I liked it. Not great, but good. I liked Angel Heart is a similar but better movie imo. Not the book aspect, but as a satanic detective story.
comfy but overrated as shit
It's weirdly comfy with an almost melancholy feeling to it.
Good movie.
probably a top five film for me
It's alright, not as good as everyone here thinks, it's got some tonal problems imo
demons are just egregores created from human thought. you are the demon
I wish I could afford to collect fine books
I hope to learn German, French and Italian one day
>I hope to learn German, French and Italian one day
it's easier when you're young
Funniest thing after watching it again years later, was the scene where he runs out of the burning building and the secretary drops a grocery bag with nothing but oranges in it.
If you know, then you know.
WHAT DOES IT MEAN
What indeed?
The occult people will get it.
You will see it in many movies and TV shows now that I have pointed it out.
see
seinfeld explained it
fallen fruit?
by the woman
I dont get it
i think its a metaphor for adam and eve
Comparing apples to oranges? Whats the metaphor, that we shouldnt look into religious symbolism in this movie because it would be comparing apples to oranges?
>running away from fire
fire usually represents Gods wrath
>a woman in her absent mindedness creates fallen fruit
apples and oranges dont matter. they both represent fruit
she dropped the bag of oranges, hence it was falling fruit. maybe skitzo but that was my take
I just thought "that b***h really loves fricking oranges"
I'm trans btw.
if she dropped them, she obviously doesnt like them that much
i hate orcs and hook noses, btw
Orangeplay is a notorious lesbian sex activity
>a grocery bag with nothing but oranges in it.
>If you know, then you know.
>WHAT DOES IT MEAN
>here your just another apple, but there (japan) your an orange: which are rare there
>why did they bring us a bag of oranges?
Seinfeld knew
One of my top ten 90s films, and Polanksi's best
Extremely re-watchable Cinemaphileerary kino
about to watch
it better be good
Trust me, it is
I rewatched it 5 times already
Just another movie that serves as a confession for Polanski. Oh no, it was the woman that made me turn to Satan! Sure buddy.
It was almost really good
But in the end it was just sort of OK
Worth watching anyways, even if it was mid
I watched it while tripping and thought it was excellent.
I don’t get why people dislike the ending. He solved the puzzle. He found the gate. He entered it. The end.
Didnt it end with the twins showing the last page on top of a shelf? One of the ones he had was fake
there's a scene after that where he goes back to the castle with that page
Oh shit i completely missed that. I thought it ended with it showing the prostitute riding the beast
?si=q4SDZPre7DqEoIDs
lol you didn’t like the ending because you’d never seen it?
Welcome to Cinemaphile. Enjoy your stay.
I’ve been here for years and years, i just keep expecting better.
I'm gonna give you one for free. The secret to happiness is low expectations. You will never be disappointed and every once in a while you will be pleasantly surprised.
You are correct.
yup, being able to forgoe trailers and hype helps a ton too. typically just surf established directors I know but hard to do that in horror today
>“I’m the only apparition you’ll see tonight.
I think Corso might have been the devil
he's the beast of revelation.
she's the prostitute of babylon, who rides the beast.
It’s far more interesting if he’s the devil. Remember Balkin was trying to summon him and Corso showed up.
that would mean Balkin's book was enough from the start and the entire mystery and search for the other books was pointless, the LCF stuff was pointless, Balkan burning alive with the new page arrangement doesn't make sense, the last of the nine pages being found in the Spanish twins' shop was pointless. The whole thing becomes moronic.
Think less literally. Corso didn’t come into existence because of the ritual. He has been around. Balkan tried to summon him and Corso (not knowing he was the devil) sensed this was his chance to gather the map to the ninth gate.
Fun film. Its very entertaining for a film about books.
I wish more kino had this feel, I sometimes listen to the soundtrack in the bath.
It's good and the fact the industry/celebrities have been defending a guy who gave alcohol and qualudes to a minor before sodomizing her proves Hollywood is a cesspool.
SHE WAS A 13 YEAR OLD PARTY GIRL, YOU SQUARE homosexual.
Blonde girl had a great ass
we literally never see it
we do see the widow's ass a couple times though, and it was fat
Saw it during the sex scene
i noticed some people's blu-ray of this movie is starting to get disc rott
Those are fakes. Only one genuine blu-ray was ever printed.
>Only one genuine blu-ray was ever printed.
but 3 copies claim to be genuine. it is up to you to find out which is genuine and which are copies.
btw, there is no such thing as changing gender; if that matters
does mine have it?
if you guys want another bookworm mystery
check 'No. 13: A Ghost Story' MR James BBC adaptation
also Sean Connery in 'Name of the Rose'
I can't believe how hard that movie adapted from a brilliant book is slept on here when there's constant Ninth Gate begging threads
it's a murder mystery at a monk abbey that's all about books and ateliers and theology
well, I can't believe you missed my thread on it
I liked it, but I completely understand it not being as obsessed over as much as The Ninth Gate.
I read the book first and am pretty nostalgic for that specific period of film tech and set design aesthetic so it's peak comfy much like warmth and allure of 9G that Polanski is so good at
This?
?si=8uhybjEfiTXvnkCd
I bought about $500 worth of old and antiquarian books because of it
grow up manchild. books are for kids. the things gen alphie wastes their money on. no wonder they can afford houses
this was really great, it's pulp art-noueveau
comic noir vintage horror like Tales from the Crypt and it really delivers on aesthetic and atmosphere. Story is timeless with enough fresh twists. Gets me in the season headspace
oops thought I was in the /hor/ thread
mumbo. jumbo.
It could've been a top tier noir kino on the level of Chinatown and Rosemary's Baby but Polanski didn't take it seriously and by the end it basically becomes a self-parody. What you get is a movie with a cool story and comfy visual aesthetic but with a completely uneven tone. It's boring and uninteresting. I would really like to see this movie remade by someone who cares
agreed, I think by the time they get to the manor Polanski just drops the mystery and tension entirely
Agreed. The pacing in the third act feels really off. But also I think the atmosphere is kinda lacking the whole movie, it should have had a dark, rainy, Gothic atmosphere, but it doesn't, it's just kinda plain
Still enjoy it but feels like it could have been a 10/10 for me if it had some changes
>Polanski
isn't he the pedo that raped a girl and ran away like a little b***h?
no wonder he made two movies about the devil and the occult
all women are prostitutes and she was willing
Polanski did nothing wrong
Manson was thee fall guy
and Polanski was the punching bag
All to cover LA drug scene
>All to cover LA drug scene
sounds like you watch l.a. confidential toi many times.
remember believe all women. he raped a girl and needs to be treated worse than the other #mejewtoo cases
I have a hard time reading filipino
Like 98% great until the end. Still one of my all-time favorites, though.
Great movie. Jonny Depp before he was corrupted by his Jack Sparrow portrayal (and subsequently couldn't do any other character), fun, tense story telling, great ambience.
I did not like the ending but the rest of it was so good I can overlook that
I know a librarian who sold books to a specialized COVID doctor, who you might of read about, and who agrees on it was a plandemic, but this film 9th gate, the librarian loves to talk about it, as it has to do with books as rare artifacts, asked him what is his oldest book...the oldest book he has is from 1639, thought that was interesting...
>tldr
Johnny Depp reminded me of my dead uncle so I really enjoyed his performance 🙂
Got about an hour into it and turned it off. Trash
I really liked the movie. It has good pacing and an interesting premise. Recommend me another movie to follow up on it.
secret window, also with depp.
i liked that one.
btw, i hate cum dumpsters, if that matters
>secret window
much better than the 23 movie with jim carrey which is similar
The Talented Mr. Ripley
Not even remotely similar but I had both of them burnt onto the same bootleg DVD so I can't watch one without the other or it feels wrong
i watched that the other day, very entertaining, can't be made in today's climate cuz he's gay and insane
My gaydar's so bad that I was completely oblivious until the blatant stuff with Peter towards the end
Seconding Mr. Ripley. I ended up reading some of the books because I liked the movie so much.
the ninth gate is satan's pussy
>The prostitute of Babylon
YWN get your dick milked by the biblically best dick milker in existence.
what does demon pusy feel like bros?
like heaven
