the content, not the form, makes a work a masterpiece
He's mocking a perfectly legitimate opinion tons of other critics have.
I saw some goofball on Google Videos say storytelling and art is all about the how, not the what. Conveyance over content. I figured my guy was being silly.
Execution can really matter in my opinion, the entire genre of iyashikei is built on this. Seemingly mundane content but the execution of it is what makes the genre what it is.
Google Videos
Haven't heard anyone talk about that for a hot minute
Since it's a long-dead service I am gonna use it as a disparaging name for You Tube =) Google delenda est
show, don't tell, the content matters more than form
Imagine a fucking Westoid complaining about Kim Jung Il's love of cinema. All you mayo do is watch movie, pay rent, eat hot chip, and lie.
Lmao isn't Scorsese at least mildly reactionary?
I think he is the kinda person that doesn't have anything close to a coherent ideology, but has ended up being correct about a lot of things because of experience/knowing lots of people/traveling lots. Killers of the Flower Moon is the kind of movie you wouldn't expect a reactionary to make.
He's always been a standard American Catholic lib. So he's a reactionary insofar as he's those other things.
I'm assuming this is a "classic"
If you like socialism so much why don't you move to North Korea!?
bit and almost nobody is this comment section got it
Honestly it wouldn't surprise me if he read it purely as part of his study of cinema. Kim Jong Il directed a ton of films for the DPRK's state film studio, so he definitely has a unique perspective on the art form that a serious director would be interested in.
Y'all are unreal lol.

The director is kind of a lib, but it's a movie worth watching for a look outside the sanitized, touristy areas of the DPRK. If you listened to the Blowback interviews from the Season 3 you'll be familiar with her.
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
with such gems like "Kim Jong Bonkers"
You don't have to agree with him, but KJI directed more than enough movies to be an authoritative voice on how to make them.
I was trying to find if Scorsese had any connections with North Korea or anything, and I found this:
