LEMONY SNICKET’S A SERIES OF UNFORTUNATE EVENTS is still for me the finest childrens film to emerge in the immediate wake of Harry Potter, a thematically rich, aesthetically breathtaking and genuinely moving fantasia on life after the death of those we love. A true forgotten gem.

A year ago today, I packed up my life and moved to Brisbane. I’ve made incredible new friends, reconnected with my family and made a wonderful new life for myself. Most of all though, I’m happy. Genuinely happy. It’s probably the best thing I could have done. It feels like home.

Remember that time a major Hollywood studio let a trans filmmaker make a $190 million meta-sequel about their deeply personal relationship with the cultural landmark they created and the collective response to it over the past 20 years… and it fucking ruled?

Hey

It’s funny all these people marching around complaining that locking people up because of COVID is “UnAustralian”, when locking people away for long periods of time (First Nations citizens, refugees etc.) is something we do all the time for far less valid reasons.

Yes, agreed. At the start of COVID, I marathoned the series in release order. When I got to the end of JEDI, I realised I was perfectly happy to leave it there and haven't watched the next one since. It feels like a more genuine thematic ending to everything before it.

THE BOY AND THE HERON: Monumental. Unlike anything Miyazaki has made and yet the complete culminating statement of his life’s work, grappling with what we leave for the generations to follow, the mistakes and the mess and the possibilities. I just sat there in silence, stunned.

At this stage, working in the arts in any capacity in Melbourne simply isn’t feasible. A lot of people already don’t have careers anymore, many more won’t by the end of this year.

FUCK! Her control, her clarity, her ability to be there for him as both actor and director simultaneously, the way she slips from character to director with ease, how alert she is, how open and generous she is, how she responds in the moment… that’s a fuckin’ DIRECTOR.
Not a photo but this video of Barbra directing and acting at the same time in YENTL always gives me a little thrill

Don’t think we’re essential? Then turn off your fucking tv. Stop going to the fucking movies. Stop listening to music, reading books, reading the newspaper, listening to podcasts, watching stand-up, going to galleries, going to museums. Then see how fucking non-essential we are.

Buster Keaton-level genius, and that’s about the highest compliment you could give anything.
Both Spielberg and Del Toro say that the chase scene in this film is one of the best ever made and they are right, the insanity to do this in stop motion too

COCAINE BEAR: Delightfully what was promised on the packet. Very silly, very gory, very much in on the joke and with sharp performances hitting the right tone. One set piece in particular is truly bananas, and Christian Convery as Henry totally steals the film. Good times.

I’ve had my first AZ shot, with no side effects until the next day. Dizziness and lethargy, and a bit of pain in my arm, but honestly? I have stronger, more severe reactions to the flu shot.
A few days of discomfort isn’t an excuse to not get vaccinated. GET FUCKING VACCINATED.
People who have gotten vaccinated please share your experience so we can retweet. Aggressively.
The narrative of unconfirmed disproportionate horror stories is flooding the socials and it’s causing a lot of hesitancy.

THE BIKERIDERS: I was quite taken by this one, the way Nichols uses the transition of a motorcycle gang from masculine romanticism to unchecked aggression as a portrait of the death of 60’s optimism and the rise of 70’s cynicism. Jodie Comer and Tom Hardy are really terrific.

THE LOST DAUGHTER: A rich and thrilling film, like reading a great novel. You don’t even notice as it calmly puts its hands around your neck with its knotty conceit and its endlessly intriguing characters. Olivia Coleman is, of course, as always, fucking radiant.
