The aesthetic of the Image: [world] cinema clips
"Film is a disease. When it infects your bloodstream it takes over as the number one hormone. It bosses the enzymes, directs the pineal gland, plays Iago to your psyche. As with heroin, the antidote to Film is more Film." - Frank Capra
Over 6900 clips!
Mostly world cinema/International/arthouse/‘experimental’ or 'indie' clips + cool Hollywood stuff...
Not really about 'famous' clips - but instead scenes where a particular image is paramount - though of course sometimes the two concepts are one and the same.
'Aesthetic' does not imply beauty as such - rather I try to vaguely interrogate what makes a particular image or set of images arresting or memorable. They might of course be beautiful, they could even be 'ugly.' I like cinema.
Lots (1700+!) of interesting playlists - directors/theme etc

That bass riff kicks in… Train to Nowhere (by the Champs). Love the music in this movie.
Faster!!!
Why is this filming her walking for 10 min then cuts off
This is basically a dumpster full of scraps these monsters didn’t finish eating 🤢🫨😬
Awesome ! ❤
The slow zoom-in...epic video making. Lolol!!??
What looks oppressive and dehumanising in 1967 looks like luxury to a modern office worker.
first
Love ❤️ love love this movie one of kind and is set apart from other one especially back then as well as today cause their is no women like Noal Darling she was Insatiable especially her sexuality and I personally got it cause yes like men she’s gota have it too
:)
that eiffel tower grew hugely in seconds it took pee wee to approach the podium! also, i didn't know the tower was out in the countryside? perceptions shattered! thanks peewee, for setting me straight. awesome movie. 'the story about a man and his bicycle'- i can totally relate
Neat. But how do we know it's supposed to be cocaine? That kinda resembles me when I used to do heroin 🤷
Well, in Modern Times (1936) Charlie 'accidently' (again!) does cocaine too - but it is referred to as 'nose powder'. I think in both cases it is assumed to be cocaine as there is nothing else it could be. The Brits have always had a longstanding affection for cocaine apparently. I remember reading that when Queen Elizabeth's grandfather, George V was on the brink of dying (1936), his personal doctor finished him off with a hearty dose of cocaine so that his death would be in time for The Times headline the nest morning!
Thank you, thank you for posting one of my favorite scenes in this movie, or any movie. "Hairspray" was so boundary crossing on so many levels. I feel better knowing that I live in a world that John Waters also lives in. He must never die, just get older and finally turn into something good to eat.
Hard to believe soon it will be 1 year since his passing 😢😢😢😢
RIP Pee Wee Herman thank you for the best memories of our childhood
That's jaws not 1941 you got the wrong movie
I think we can safely assume it's a typo - not a genuine misconception on my part, lol! Thanks anyway - have cleared up the title now...
This movie is such a classic i love it.....

This thing made me vomit
The greatest film ever made. Should be taught in schools.
Yes, who needs Tarkovsky when you have John Waters?
Nice!👍🏼
Might be on an Island of One with this 🏝; Michelle Pfeiffer (sp.) Is a *Very* Talented, Underrated, ..Beautiful Actress. 🫶❤️🔥🎭
No offence intended - but I don't think your desert island scenario with Michelle Pfeiffer is going to be happening any time soon (!)
@@AestheticOfTheImage Lol. 😅😅😅 None taken. Antman, meet Wasp.. .. Wasp. - Antboy. 🤝 Lol
ps. She still looked hot(ish) two years ago aged 64 - celebwell.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2022/05/GettyImages-1391537607.jpg?quality=82&strip=all - though not sure if she would still make your Desert Island criteria, though?
@@AestheticOfTheImage My desert island reference was with respect to.. there being a (certain) given unknown about if there are others that would state this Lady is underrated talented beautiful.
This scene is his whole mood...infinite blue
They tinted it blue for early morning
I was reminded of this scene while reading “Nausea” by Jean Paul Sartre. It seems to me like the whole of Nausea, that is, the whole book can be incapsulated beautifully in this brief scene.
The greatest movie ever. The script, the dialogue, the actors, the music score, the photography.........perfect on every level.
Love the paintings of girls in the background, wonder who made them.
So true
Hughie Green!
Did he just dip a shoelace in a bowl of water?
Thank you so much for this clip.
You're very welcome
An incredible opening scene
Just saw the movie and hands down - probably the best and courageously made end-credits I've seen so far. So good you put it up! THX!
I always wondered why the truck driver kicked the fuel tank
It amazes me that I have yet to see this infamous once-underground classic all the way through. I caught the tail end (no pun intended!) on Turner Classic Movies not too long ago, and have otherwise only seen bits and pieces such as this in various fora over the decades. Your comments here remind me of a moment on the old ABC skit-comedy show 'Fridays', from before the marriage of the present King to Lady Diana Spencer, where it was announced that the then Prince of Wales had found the woman of his dreams, and it was none other than Miss Divine, showing an image of her Babs persona as illustration. That WOULD have been a wedding for the ages.
When someone says Chinatown has the darkest, most nihilistic ending in film history I know they haven’t seen Ran.
I was so glad they had a happy end! 💖
Ever listened to Bolling's magnum opus Suite for Flute and Jazz Piano Trio?
Directed by the same man who co-created and co-wrote for Yes, Minister/Prime Minister.
Hell yeah
Yep, that b*tch sure got it goin' on! I vote Yes!
wtf is this? 🙄 where’s the dam rest? 😒
I do say it's a "Clip" in the title!
wtf
