Welcome to CineTv periodic contest
Hereby, the results and winners of the last cinetv contest - foreign cinema are published in the following section.
However, I will apologize as there was a delay in announcing the result, which resulted from unforeseeable and unavoidable predicaments. But let's not ponder upon them anymore.
We've selected the winners and they are...
3RD Place — 200 CINE
@wiseagent — Who you really are: The different faces of human beings
Wiseagent writes about an Argentinian anthology film named "Wild Tales". Aptly deducing the implications and nature of the film, he seeks comparative relationships between Brazilian and Argentinian cinema.
2ND Place — 300 CINE
@gabrielserra — Cidade de Deus - Best foreign film I ever seen
gabrielserra discusses the language barrier and what it means to him. He takes us to City of God, perhaps the most renowned Brazillian film and tells us how it differs from a Hollywood production and how the deliberate raw crudeness of it, along with fitting cinematography makes it great.
1ST Place — 500 CINE
@jesustiano — Höstsonaten (Autumn Sonata) 1978
Jesustiano delves deep into Bergman's Autumn Sonata. His impression, understanding of the film, and the way of elaborating the characters, their driving forces in relation to the plot Bergman intricately created are commendable—to say the least. It was a delight to read it.
Congrats! Great entries!
1000 CINE COINS, sponsored by @zayedsakib and @notacinephile have been transferred to the winners.
Lastly, I (@notacinephile) want to finish with a personal parting note. After announcing the contest post, I was pondering upon what cinema is foreign to me. And I couldn't immediately think of any. Anything that is not English is foreign to me technically, but are they really?
Consider Yasujirō Ozu's films for example. He made films in Japan when the cultural exchanges of Japan with the rest of the world were extremely limited. His cinematic language was not influenced by the west. The west came to learn about his film long after he died and now when we consider his films, the core understanding of cinema isn't all that alien to the rest of the world. Every film industry, every great filmmaker, every cinema movement has core structures that are very similar. The art of cinema is universal through its frames, compositions, editing, and visual storytelling—where traditional language plays only secondary roles.
To test this, all one has to do is to see a foreign language cinema without subtitles and without sound.
A new cinetv contest will be announced soon.

It was an amazing experience, to write the post and rewatch the movie once more to talk about it with a fresh memory, I love that my review makes it and win this contest, but above all, I loved the fact that I was able to compare my local cinema that would be foreign for you, and a cinema that would be foreign to both of us.
I will be looking forward to the next contest and I will participate without a doubt.
Thank you for this initiative, hardwork and opportunity :)
Congratulations to the winners and a big hug to Wiseagent because I loved that movie a lot, one of the best movies ever made in argentina.
Sorry for the late reply.

And you're right, and the foreignness doesn't feel strange at all!
I would thank hive for bringing us all together. :)
A big hug, i will wait for the next contest :)

Thanks for the prize and congratulations to all the other winners.
I'm already waiting for the next contest.
Thank you very much! I loved participating in this contest, it's always a pleasure to do so. The foreign cinema is amazing and I've seen some recommendations from several cinephiles in the community. Once again, thanks for the opportunity to remind us that cinema is not just Hollywood and that there are many great films we have yet to see and from other cultures that will teach us quite a bit :)
Sorry for the late reply.
Great job with the contest! Congrats!
Yes, gorging on Hollywood only can suffocate one soon enough. Especially, since the industry is so big, it also comes with lots and lots of unwatchable garbage.
