'I may mention at once that she dabbled in vice
From her cradle - and found it exceedingly nice.
That she doted on sin - that her only delight
Was in breaking commandments from morning till night'
(Punch magazine's parody of Swinburne, 1898. Art: Edward Gorey.)

I had the honor and privilege of getting to sit down and chat with Jafar Panahi about his superb new thriller "It Was Just An Accident", handily one of the year's best films. For @screenslate.bsky.social.

Blind Chance: A Conversation with Jafar Panahi

Jafar Panahi’s career has proven to be an exercise in adaptability. His highly publicized tactics of clandestine production, circumventing the approval of Iran’s Ministry of Culture, have laid out a b...

Hey, Kansas: WTO/99 screens at Tallgrass Film Festival this weekend (perfect No Kings co-programming) and at @libertyhall.bsky.social on Monday. It's an incredible movie, and I was so excited to talk to @prophetkotto.bsky.social about his work on it.

Daring documentary WTO/99 wants you to rethink how we talk about protests

For a lot of millennials, the World Trade Center Organization protests of 1999, also called “The Battle of Seattle” are, if we think about them at all, a footnote in the history of U.S. collective act...

‘Did I ever tell you my favourite colour was blue?’

Look at Sam Neill's face, in this scene from In the Mouth of Madness, and tell me that colours aren't terrifying. They remind us that we are contingent fragments of reality, created against our will and doomed to be annihilated in the same way.

From John Carpenter's In the Mouth of Madness: John Trent (Sam Neill) wakes up on a bus to find that the whole world is tinted blue; he is screaming wildly, surrounded by alarmed-looking fellow passengers.

John Carpenter made some of the greatest movies of all time and then retired to make music with his son and play video games. It’s possible he has lived the greatest life in human history.

I’ve just watched a tribute that Meryl Streep gave to Diane Keaton in which she said that Keaton had “a stream of consciousness like a hummingbird” & my goodness that’s it, that was her entirely.

Four creepy bedrooms: The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari, The Night of the Hunter, Red Desert, and The Parallax View.

The frames are theatrical, artificial; the characters trapped within a construct, a pathology, dogma, shadowy conspiracies, or (in the case of Red Desert) something more nebulous.

From Robert Wiene's The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari: a wide shot with Jane's bed (in which Jane lies sleeping) in the foreground; behind the bed, a large pair of theatrical black curtains are partially drawn, revealing the rest of the room; Cesare has broken through the window in the background, and approaches the bed, looking towards the camera. The image is tinted green.

From Charles Laughton's The Night of the Hunter: a wide shot of Willa and Harry's bedroom, with the bed (in which Willa lies on her back) in the foreground; it seems to exist slightly separately from the rest of the room, which floats in a black void; we can see the edges of the walls and ceiling within that void, and the interior is filled with triangular light and shadows; Harry stands beside the bed, his head cocked backwards at an awkward and sinister angle.

From Antonioni's Red Desert: a wide shot of Corrado's hotel room, including the bed in which Giuliana and Corrado lie naked and half-asleep; everything else in the room is coated in pink.

From Alan J. Pakula's The Parallax View: a wide shot of Frady's rented room; to the right, propped up on the bed, is Jack Younger (the Parallax recruiter); to the left, standing looking at him, is Frady.

I was trying to place the Looney Tunes that's playing on the TV in One Battle After Another when Bob is walking through Sergio's home. The shot of church bells was distinct. I remember it because it was a recent viewing. It's the final seconds of "Of Rice and Hen", it's on a Collector's Choice blu.

Four screenshots of a Foghorn Leghorn cartoon. In the top left corner is the name of the animator who worked on each individual sequence - this isn't my video, it was posted on the Cartoon Research blog years back.
