Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk (2016) by Ang Lee who also directed evermore’s inspo Sense & Sensibility (1996) as well as Joe’s fav film Brokeback Mountain w/ cinematographer Rodrigo Prieto who Taylor loved so much she hired him for The Man, cardigan, willow, & Fortnight
unlabelledView post →Do you guys ever think about how Joe Alwyn's first film was "Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk" in which he plays a soldier who makes an appearance at a Cowboy's Thanksgiving football game?
unlabelledView post →“All the fakeness just rolls off them, maybe because the nonstop sales job of American life has instilled in them exceptionally high thresholds for sham, puff, spin, bullshit, and outright lies, in other words for advertising in all its forms.” “Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk" #SuperBowl

unlabelledView post →Of course, Ang Lee did it with Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk, but what if someone made a drama in 3D with a good script instead?
unlabelledView post →BILLY LYNN'S LONG HALFTIME WALK (2016) Ang Lee's follow-up to his Oscar win for LIFE OF PI Soldier Billy Lynn back in America after an Iraq tour Commercialization of war is a major theme Stuck between satire and soulful Steve Martin as Jerry Jones? Lee interested in technical experimentation
unlabelledView post →Ironically, I could see high-frame rate being put to interesting use by smaller, indie dramatists too, kind've like Ang Lee tried with Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk, but I suspect the costs and infrastructural demands make that all but impossible.
unlabelledView post →i believe @maddiewhittle.bsky.social made a joke about BILLY LYNN'S LONG HALFTIME WALK
unlabelledView post →Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk is a fantastic movie that I can now say is even better on a rewatch. Not a lot of movies were made about the second Iraq war; this one's both a great movie and a profoundly important one. Ang Lee doesn't miss.

unlabelledView post →Mine is seeing the Aero's Comanche-language screening of PREY the night before it dropped on Hulu Second would be the time I randomly went to a daytime 3D, 120FPS screening of BILLY LYNN'S LONG HALFTIME WALK at the Cinerama Dome and Ang Li came out afterwards to take questions

unlabelledView post →Ooh, too hard to pick! But 4 good ones that I read or re-read this year: Tie: Bunny + We Love You, Bunny by Mona Awad Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk by Ben Fountain The Sisters Brothers by Patrick DeWitt Sula by Toni Morrison
unlabelledView post →76.) BILLY LYNN'S LONG HALFTIME WALK (2016) - the movie is not good but Ang Lee knows how to shoot the fuck out of a movie so even his bad movies make great trailers
unlabelledView post →WARFARE is well acted, technically well-executed and sometimes pretty goddamn harrowing. I have zero knowledge of combat situations, if you told me this was a fair representation, I'd believe it. But it was a little like BILLY LYNN'S LONG HALFTIME WALK in that often, I wasn't quite sure of the point

unlabelledView post →I always recommend two books when people seek recommendations: 1) Body & Soul by Frank Conroy. Impossibly beautiful writing. Just gorgeous. 2) Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk by Ben Fountain. Probably the best first novel I've ever read. I'm jealous of anyone who hasn't read these...

unlabelledView post →Thinking about popular depictions of the War on Terror (movies, popular nonfiction, novels) and almost all are about Afghanistan. Exceptions: Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk; American Sniper; Hurt Locker and the latter two avoided the war's politics so completely they could have been set anywhere.
unlabelledView post →Jax's near abstraction in ep 7 had me thinking if blu-rays support 60fps. Apparently not original blu-rays, but there are two 4K UHD releases in 60fps. Gemini Man and Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk (I forgot about both of those) are 24fps on blu-ray but 60fps on UHD. Neato
unlabelledView post →Virtually all "3D" movies are shot 2D and rotoscoped to be 3D. Avatar, Hobbit, Life of Pi, Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk, Hugo and a couple of others are the only ones shot with a 3D pair of cameras.
unlabelledView post →I love 3D and hate HFR. That said, I did get to see Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk in 120fps 3D at the NYFF, and it was like watching a play. I don't know if I like the feel of it, but it's way more distinctive a choice than 48.

unlabelledView post →As the scales fall off your eyes let me as a veteran that it doesn't surprise me in the least. It was always an act, and a deeply cynical one at that. Reading suggestion for you: "Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk"
unlabelledView post →It's always fascinating to see which country the streaming poster prioritizes. Wouldn't have expected Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk to be so popular in China.
unlabelledView post →Beyonce being the halftime show reminds me of the book, “Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk”
unlabelledView post →What really interests me about #usspershing is that it is the first Star Trek series since TOS to be 'about' the military, but a half-century has made it about a very different military. Gene Roddenberry wrote sci-fi from 'Band of Brothers'. You wrote sci-fi from 'Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk'.
unlabelledView post →Oof. That would do it, aye. I could see Gravity screwing with folks. I haven't seen Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk at the theater, only at home, but the frame rate for that was INSANE and got a lot of people feeling sick and nauseous and all that. Just because one *can* doesn't mean one *should.*

He talks about the President who shall not be named, giving readers a jolt, the possibilities of fiction. He is superb.

unlabelledView post →Boy, I confused The Long Walk for Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk (why tf would I?) and this was BAFFLING for a minute 🤣
unlabelledView post →Not a fan of any spectator sports, but i highly recommend Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk, by Ben Fountain, for an inside look but for so much more. (Ignore the movie, which sucked.)
unlabelledView post →I watched Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk—and, uh, can you tell me where this lead actor has been? What happened to Joe Alwyn in the years since this movie that he hasn’t had a leading role since? I’ve seen 90% of his filmography now, and it makes no sense this film was the pinnacle of his acting!

unlabelledView post →Well to back up your point, I don't think president-era art really exists. Production lead time, and then the long tail of influences and ripoffs and sequels and remakes, means everything gets smeared out. Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk, the most Dubya-era movie ever, came out November 2016!
unlabelledView post →I've been listening to the @blankcheck.bsky.social episode for Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk which I watched last month with guest J.D. Amato, this may be one of the greatest eps ever with his 15 minute explanation on how cameras and light works.
unlabelledView post →'Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk' pretty much captured it, then?
unlabelledView post →Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk has great depths and invokes more feeling than I ever expected from the dust jacket. It's a story of one man, one country and all the world. It reminded me that when something rough occurs life often throws you a square of Tony's to make up for it #Booksky
unlabelledView post →I think we do appreciate some kind of surface texture. For example, I bought the UHD of Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk out of curiosity, as it's presented at 60 frames per second, and it just looks *weird* - an ultra-sharp picture (no grain here!) allied to a hyperreal feeling of movement.
unlabelledView post →Game, music, celebration, romance, emotion, family, friends and the war! After giving the career best, the director Ang Lee returned with this which is quite a long gap for him between the films. He has fallen back to the average, like usual whenever he gives a masterpiece. Most directors do that. This film was adapted from the book of the same name. It was not a full fledged war film. It has soldiers, but one day event theme where they are on the short break to homeland to participate in the…
