Hi, for fans of Poor Things, I've just released a video about the director Yorgos Lanthimos >>  https://youtu.be/5mxgWRjaS-E  

Why do his characters speak like mature 4 year olds? Why does he love extremely wide angle lenses? Watch the video to find out about his filmmaking process, directorial style, and why his films are just generally so weird.

All the best,
Lawrence 

Happy New Year Everybody!

When the year began, the looming metric that is the subscription count read not much more than 1,000 - but fast forward twelve months and I'm very happy to say over 28,000 people have joined the channel! In other words, It's been a great year for Archer Green, all because of you. 

I can't thank you enough for your continued support.

In the mean time, I'm working on my next project, I'll leave you with this :)
(Let me know in the comments what you think it is about) 

What is Scorsese's highest grossing Film 

This is the first shot James Cameron directed for a feature film. 

As second unit director on Galaxy of Terror (1981) he was tasked with filming an insert shot of a dismembered arm covered in maggots. When he got to set, the arm and maggots weren't moving. So Cameron attached some wires to the arm, and gave it an electric charge, causing the maggots to wiggle. The producers of Piranha 2 were present, and hired Cameron after watching his ingenuity. 

Wow. 
Thank you to all of my new subscribers and all of the support from my Scorsese video. In January I set myself the target of hitting 1,000 subs by the end of the year. A week ago I was sitting on 725, and it looked unlikely I'd meet that target. But thanks to all the the love on my newest video I've shot past it. All I can say is thank you to everyone who watched. 
For my new subscribers, welcome to my channel and thank you so much for coming aboard. I'm a film student from the UK with a love for cinema. Here is where I channel that love.

When asked if Emperor Palpatine used to be a Jedi, George Lucas replied with 'no, he was a politician, Richard Nixon was his name'  
This is just one of many real world figures and events that inspired the self confessed history fan George Lucas when he was writing Star Wars. What do you think is the most clear historical inspiration within Star Wars? 

Hi Everyone
Apologies for the short hiatus, uni and sickness have been kicking my ass lately. But my latest Star Wars video marks my return, and you can expect a video every two weeks for the foreseeable future. 

Hi everyone
I'm afraid I won't be able to get a new video out this week due to some personal stuff, but rest assured I've got a project in the works. Thanks. 

In 1980, after the release of Friday the 13th, film critic Gene Siskel revealed the home address of Paramount Pictures chairmen in his review of the Slasher film. He despised the film so much, he encouraged readers to write to the chairmen, and complain themselves about the movie his company released. This was part of a wider backlash against the increasingly graphic and violent films being released in the wake of Halloween, and the emergence of the Slasher genre.

My latest video explores the origins of the Slasher, tracing its roots from 1960s Italy, to its postmodernist period in the 1990s, click the link below to watch.

Favourite classic Slasher? 

One of the most memorable moments from The Lighthouse is Willem Dafoe's monologue, when he curses Winslow for not being fond of his lobster, calling out 'Hark, Triton!' But who is Triton? Triton was an ancient Greek god of the sea, but why is he being called upon in 17th Century New England? My newest video essay discusses the ancient Greek inspiration of The Lighthouse, looking at Triton, Proteus, and Prometheus. Viewing the film through this lens can help shed light on the ambiguity that surrounds it, helping us uncover the mystery of the Light.
