Kris Kristofferson was the real deal.

Spielberg is a great craftsman, great artists should be, which hides how reactionary and backwards looking Last Crusade is after everyone lost their shit over Temple of Doom. Last Crusade is the Force Awakens of Indy movies.

I’ve tried. Theres nothing else quite like War and Peace. Try First Love by Turgenev.

I as well. I don’t remember the last film that kept me thinking about it so much after first viewing. What is this strange thing?

I’m still pondering Megalopolis… #lastfourwatched #letterboxdfriday boxd.it/1djOv

Everyone should see The Fall,

In a major coup, MUBI - the streaming service that is Criterion for people who think Criterion is too mainstream - has acquired & restored Tarsem's brilliant THE FALL, available today. A criminally underseen masterpiece, this movie has been hard to find for YEARS. Now it's out there. Fucking LOVE it

Megalopolis Review

Megalopolis Review: Coppola's potentially final film is as deliberate and obvious an agglomeration of its creator's view on film.

There are 2 wolves inside you. One says Megalopolis is a 4/10 failure of basic storytelling. The other says it’s a 10/10 work of genius. It’s easy to love Oppenheimer or Perfect Days. It’s hard to love something like Megalopolis. That’s why it might be my favorite thing I have seen this year.

Just need some of those big vacuum disks and all set.

This is my jam.

The 2016 election broke a lot of people’s brains about Nate. They’d try to find some ridiculous gotcha about him being wrong than use him to make their case stronger. Also the group dunking thing just backs up all those ‘echo chamber’ bubble complaints.

If we're all going to dunk on Nate Silver, I get to brag about the timestamp here
