a friend of mine (real) had acid thrown in his face after trying to retrieve a stolen piece of music, and now he has to wear a mask. he haunts the Palais Garnier, stalking the ballerinas, howling for his Angel of Music. this madness can’t be allowed to go on.

MST3K was bad for movies & movie watching; it set up an entire generation of audiences (& their progeny) to position themselves above and condescend down to certain types of movies that didn’t fit their idea of “good”, as opposed to geneuinely engaging with their idiosyncrasies.

the problem with Redmayne’s performance, in/out of context of the show, is that its barely grounded in a reading of the text, is predicated on Eddie having A Take on the Emcee (rather than situating him as an entertainer), and his arc (esp wrt rise of fascism) is incoherent.
I feel like a lot of people are unaware of how deeply uncomfortable a good performance of Cabaret is supposed to make you...

everyone interprets things differently, art is subjective and all that jazz, but i am personally most amused by all these people being like "wait how is ROPE queer???"
rewatch and indulge in JUST how gay it is (and Farley Granger and screenwriter Arthur Laurents were banging)

FIRE ISLAND marries Joel Kim Booster's razor wit and Andrew Ahn's delicate tenderness for a very funny, shrewdly observed portrait of queer people negotiating their desire to be wanted, by whom and for what reason, and how those impulses can exist personally & topographically.

two of my favorite films of the year, THE FABELMANS and BABYLON, are not so much about “the magic of the movies” but about the concoction of those self-perpetuating mythologies and the life shreddingly narcotic contradictions of art making and consumption.

PEN15 is one hell of a fucking show, electrifying in its depiction of innocence & monstrosity as inherently youthful. At once thorny and barbed, & breathtakingly tender & visceral, luxuriating in the chaos of adolescence, while tinged by melancholic wisdom. Absolutely incredible.

people act like throwing “Baumbach/Gerwig movies are white” is an insightful criticism, as if both directors are not only not aware of the privilege of their characters, but also that said privilege, & the kind of myopia it engenders, isnt the primary thing that they’re examining
