From 1951 to 2004 it was awarded by a commission, since 2005 the award has been given by the Deutsche Filmakademie. With a cash prize of three million euros - the most highly endowed German cultural award - it differs from the Oscar or the César. The Deutsche Filmpreis is the most important element of the German government's policy of supporting the film industry. The Federal Commissioner for Cultural and Media Affairs has been responsible for the administration of the prize since 1999.

‘Without any mental deliberation, picture the average female porn star. Just let her spring into your mind’s eye looking however she looks. Can you see her?’ I can’t recall how I first heard about the Internet Adult Film Database—the self-proclaimed ‘premier resource for information about the American porn community on the web’, but for the longest time I knew I wanted to plunder its treasure trove of juicy information. It holds the records of over 120,000 porn films and 115,000 adult performers and is the adult equivalent of the Internet Movie Database. The database started out as a labour of love for Dutchman Peter Van Aarle, who in 1981 began keeping records on index cards about the porn films he watched in his home town’s adult cinema.

‘…the largest infographic I’ve ever created plus a 5,000 word report containing every single result…’ Fast forward a year and I’d found a way to (somewhat nefariously, but with honourable intentions) extract thousands of records from the database.

Sin Nombre Snatch The Descent. Good Horror Movies Every Fan Has To See. If you ask people on the street for some suggestions of a great horror movie, odds are you'd get a wide range of answers. You’d get everything from the scariest slasher film to horror comedies and even b-rated horror movies that barely classify for the genre.

Because we all have a different capacity for being scared and our own unique reasons for watching horror films, we of course have varying tolerances for gore and suspenseful movies[2]. Storytelling is an art form and the best stories share a hero, his struggles, and the ultimate victory of the hero over the villain. Great horror movies drag out the suspense until the end[1], sometimes never concluding with victory. The most successful horror franchises are masterful at drawing the suspense to the next movie, where the hero will finally be able to overcome the villain. Maybe. Let's get started, shall we?

Metacritic. CINEMETRICS — film data visualization. Top 250. The Internet Movie Database (IMDb) Scream & Yell - Resenha Waking Life - por Angélica Bito. Waking Lifepor Angélica Bito Se você é daqueles que ainda encara animações como produções infantis e, portanto, facilmente digeríveis, assista a Waking Life e conclua que essa premissa está incorreta. O novo longa de Richard Linklater (do cult "Antes do Amanhecer") está longe de ser infantil, muito menos é facilmente digerível.

As figuras animadas atingem um grau de abstração artística enquanto cores e texturas dançam na tela. As imagens, psicodélicas, são ricamente trabalhadas e coloridas. O protagonista de Waking Life vê em sua frente um desfile de personagens peculiares, únicos. A questão existencial que pontua todo o filme é a dúvida do protagonista: como diferenciar a vida real àquela que existe somente em nossos sonhos? O personagem principal vive dentro de um sonho e, quando acorda, está dentro de outro sonho. Dando leveza ao roteiro denso está o trabalho visual concebido por Richard Linklater e Bob Sabiston, o diretor de arte do filme.
