Movies and TV Shows

Hi there,

I hope my title as well as the examples shown in the picture get the idea across of what I'm looking for. Doesn't matter what the genre is, I am just looking for movies which are shot in this grim lighting.

Also, for fun, try and guess which movies the pictures come from.

Answer

Suspiria (2018)

Black Swan

The Road

Hypothetical: Digital Media Preservation Act.

If the owner of a streaming platform decides to remove their original shows or movies (like WB did to HBO or Paramount+ just did), they are required to be "purchased" by the DMPA division at a set price per episode and freely available to the public.

Streaming platforms would be forced to actually decide if any given series is costing them more than the cost of giving it up to DMP. Rather than locking it away and "freezing" it.

What are some possible drawbacks or benefits for this idea?

I've been searching around for a couple of days to see if anyone noticed this. In Halo S02E07 around the 38 minute mark, Talia Perez is staring at her reflection just before Master Chief walks in to talk to her. Over the loud speaker, you can hear someone say "Tango-Hotel-Xray-one-one-three-eight". (headphones helps) That's a classic reference to George Lucas' early film THX-1138. Used heavily throughout the Star Wars universe and many other films.

Can you imagine the hype? Yes it's a fake tho 😭

Hi there,

I recently saw the movie: Black Swan. Good picture, good acting! One thing that stood out to me though was the fact that this movie is kinda dreary. I don't think I have ever seen the sun shine in that movie. Everybody seems to hate one another and there is just an overall really negative vibe going on.

It suited the movie perfectly. So I was wondering if anyone knows of any other movies where the setting is just depressing/dreary for no apparent reason*.

• To which I mean there is no direct reason a character (or story) should be sad or depressed. I hope I am explaining this well 🙏 An example would be Saturday Night Fever.
