Been watching some old movies lately and its amazing to watch simple scenes stretch on for five minutes or more. Its almost like there was nothing else to do.

- avhception 1y agoAt first I'm irritated by this, but once I adapt I actually like the time it gives me as a viewer to appreciate the subtleties of what's the characters and what they're up to.
- mixmastamyk 1y agoAgreed, though I feel they went overboard during the seventies. On the other hand, modern movies make me desperate for a breather.
