PLEASE SPREAD THE WORD!!

The University of Texas-Austin is beginning a process to eliminate the Black Studies, Latino Studies, and Gender Studies departments in the College of Liberal Arts. This is a grave threat to the educational liberty of students, faculty, staff, and the people of Texas. 1/

so i’ve been spending some time with this whole score since i posted this and i am utterly convinced that a symphony orchestra should screen this and perform this film.

the way i’d be sat.

i used to be obsessed with this song that appears briefly in “mo better blues,” performed by denzel as bleek gilliam on a bridge in this one gorgeous night shot. it’s not on the film’s soundtrack so i really had to work to find it. music.apple.com/us/album/sin...

we actually don’t discuss Terrence Blanchard enough in the pantheon of great film composers.

i had to google. like, this universe completely spins out between seasons.
slb79.bsky.social
also: they always pop up every season with these high-profile new cast members with like no intro to their storyline. they've added william jackson harper *and* aaron pierre and like... who are they??? where did marion cotillard come from?!
slb79.bsky.social
and when people say this show could go on forever? it absolutely could, bc what even is it and whyever would it stop?

billy crudup gives such an unhinged performance in "the morning show." always has. it's... so weird and interesting to watch.
slb79.bsky.social
it’s a once in a decade phenomenon. we can just let it stand. 😂

i love this song, too, and you’re right. it doesn’t get enough credit.
slb79.bsky.social
oooh, that sounds like an *incredible* show. enjoy!
