David Cronenberg: Naked Lunch
I like this film especially the typewriter transformation into creatures which always happen when the character is drugged.

Exercise: Repeating the Mosjukhin experiment
After Stuart's comment I changed the position of the "thoughts" in the first attempt.
I agree that the last "meditation" shot was inserted too early and a thought should have been inserted before it. My original intention was that the writer become famous and will have a problem with drinking. I think there is a need to show more thoughts. Some idea: the first thought should be a simple shot of the typewriter, second he is writing, third he receives his first published book, the fourth he receives a price - a shot of price, fifth: there could be a shot of a shelf with prices, sixth: the drinking scene, seventh: he has not the drinking under control (homeless), eight: he changes his life (mediation).
I was surprised how Stuart was very close with interpretations of the sequences, even the second was abstract one. There was missing information at the end of the first attempt - there is a writer who received his first published book. The second sequence was about man who is looking for a love but he never receive it.
If I compare sequences from student fellows I think that shots of thoughts where is not the character are most impressive. For example: those shots of things let you think how the character is connected to them, it allows you to imagine a story on your experience, our mind analyses it and tries to explain it somehow. On the other hand, when there was the character in "thoughts" I had a feeling that we are looking on a past, something which already happened. Just my thoughts.
(Just an idea crossed my mind: the sequence could be shorter and explain his current state about his laziness e.g.: he want to write a book (typewriter) but he could not resist to play games (shot of a game machine, drinking scene etc.)).

Dým Bramborové Natě, František Vláčil
Psycho-logic drama by czech director Frantisek Vlacil. I like the 2D dimension in the chosen pictures (it is similar as in Tarkovsky's work The Sacrifice), the exploitation of grids in windows and deep of field.
Tarkovsky's The Sacrifice
Again, great experience, no words are needed. I love Tarkovsky's composition, lightning, location,m everything is perfect. I think you can watch the film with sound turn off and you will understand. I chose some scenes:
