I sat down with Courtney Stephens and Callie Hernandez to talk about their new film, Invention. So much was left on the cutting room floor, but I think this gets to the core of what the film had been scratching inside my brain since seeing it last month.

Sky Hopinka just read aloud this statement in front of IDFA’s director after a post-screening Q&A for his film, malni —towards the ocean, towards the shore. Amazing.

For men, I know of few who make me feel like Alain Delon does in Purple Noon. he is every variation of effortless Mediterranean cool in that movie.

In one very small way I feel bad for this filmmaker, wracked with such insecurities. To throw random accusations of racism at me and operate with blind obstinance to the many measured responses to her choices must be a very lonely way to operate in the world right now.
saying this to defend an ai generated “film” is crazy

If you’re so insecure about your empty creative venture that you have to lob the racism card from the get go, maybe it’s time to take a step back.

something about actors today having to maintain every semblance of youth long after it’s necessary (or beneficial) does not gel with having to authentically portray people whose lifestyles and eras just allowed them to age.

Thomas Flight got to be the worst of the long-form video essayists, for how seriously he takes himself, how seriously others take him, and for how insipid his insight is. Imagine saying old Hollywood acting lacks authenticity then using Bogart and Mary fucking Astor as examples!!

I have a few words in
@InRO
about VULCANIZADORA, undoubtedly one of the best films I'll see this year. Like BUZZARD it conveys a primal scream into the void, but now muzzled by guilty desperation and the responsibility of fatherhood.

What’s funny about that Kubrick article is not only is it just insanely wrong, but it’s also terribly written. And that makes me happy.

I've seen no fewer than three decapitated children in Palestine on social media this week
If you ever wonder why nothing really phases GenX, just remember, we were sitting in school literally watching this shit happen live.

I will never get over the pure energy in this picture of Richard seeing Barbra Streisand in the flesh and Melissa’s genuine joy knowing how much she means to him. We don’t deserve it, yet it is ours.

one of the hills I’ll die on is that The Lighthouse should have ended with this scene (though it is still excellent regardless)

RIP William Klein, whose photography I’m not very familiar with, but whose documentary, THE FRENCH, set in the locker rooms, practice courts, and cool-down rooms at Roland Garros is one of the best films ever made about tennis and the machine that makes it tick.

POWER OF THE DOG is cinema of tactility. Texture and abrasion, on and below the surface. An absolute banger of an adaptation.
