The fact of the matter is, no matter how hard you worked, how meticulous your notes have been written, or how good you are, if the film didn't catch, you get nothing. #FilmPhotographyFail #FilmPhotography #FilmIsNotDead #FilmWasters #Notebook #Notes #FilmNotes

Gimme Shelter dir. Albert & David Maysles and Charlotte Zwerin (1970)

—cocksucker blues might be better or more rock and roll but this is a more cogently put across story/end of the sixties fantastically captured/love the lawyer/when they watch the footage of the guy getting stabbed, mick’s face/hippies combing the hills at very end with the sun setting great expressive idea—

How to Survive a Plague dir. David France (2012)

—this was uplifting as hell/learned about from when peter staley and jim eigo came to Baruch College and was moved then as well/larry kramer breaking up the tumult at the meeting climax/events and footage that really need to be more widespread and understood/amazing how much occupy drew from ideas and organizational tools they set forth/Bob Rafsky and Spencer Cox’s deaths hurt now—

if... dir. Lindsay Anderson (1968)

—saw at anthology film archives/the café scene where they first meet the girl/I love how the B&W and color change more or less indifferently while the tone or style of the film changes in a very mannered fashion/every surreal or stylized element is well done/stealing a motor cycle/school massacre is tastefully done as I’ve ever scene it, pretty amazing/the guy in the suit of armor/’you, bastards!’ old lady—

Hard Eight dir. Paul Thomas Anderson (1996)

—amazing debut/phillip baker hall has some great one-liners/Scorsese influence in the long tracking shots/Gwyneth is sexysexy/ Grounded in central metaphor of the ‘Hard Eight’/like the motel scene and it’s intensity and funniness/Jackson has one of his best performances here or maybe its good writing—
