#The most unknown film movie#

Rather than attempt to sell the movie on the concept, the studio opted to focus on the Disney ties. Michalka and Hudgens had a built-in fanbase that came as a result of their work on Disney.

Much in the same way that AnnapurnaвЂ™s marketing for вЂњBooksmartвЂќ was criticized, we can say the same for SummitвЂ™s strategy surrounding вЂњBandslam.вЂќ This is a film that features Gaelan Connell, Aly Michalka, and Vanessa Hudgens in starring roles. Nobody really talks about it, and itвЂ™s been on my mind lately because of the upcoming 10-year anniversary in August. The movie hasnвЂ™t even picked up a second life on streaming.

The most underrated film of the last decade and certainly among the most criminally under-appreciated is Todd GraffвЂ™s вЂњBandslam.вЂќ Summit Entertainment distributed the film in August 2009, and while it did well with critics, it was a failure with general audiences.

It plays like a grand culmination of the rich philosophical musings and inventive approaches that Kiarostami took audiences through over the course of a storied career. His ability to evoke great meaning and emotions in viewers from setups that may seem hard to parse at first continued to the very end of his lifetime, and rewatching вЂњ24 FramesвЂќ this weekend provided an opportunity for me to further appreciate and discover the connections and comparisons within each composition. With a variety of settings, ranging from nature scenes to urban settings to even a painting, we can see the myriad of ways that Kiarostami examined the world through his work, and often in ways that made unconventional uses of the medium of film, and broke the traditional rules of how stories can be told or environments can be explored. Its unusual nature-two hours of 24 seemingly unrelated scenes (about four-and-a-half minutes each), which are mostly still images a mix of animation, live-action movement, and sound effects added in-may make it feel like a curious experiment rather than a full-fledged film, but thereвЂ™s a lot to appreciate within the themes tackled in each, as well as what it means within a broader context.

Though it was hardly disliked by critics upon its 2018 release, IвЂ™d like to say a few words for вЂњ24 Frames,вЂќ the last film by Abbas Kiarostami, and argue its place as a major landmark within the directorвЂ™s filmography.
