The Taylor Swift doc doing a great job reminding us how singular she is after her wobbliest record. Happy to pretend Showgirl never happened, it’s all good.

Feelings towards Scottish independence these days are mostly ‘sure! why not!’
New Scottish Independence poll, Ipsos 27 Nov - 3 Dec (changes vs 12-18 Jun):

Yes ~ 47% (+1)
No ~ 43% (nc)
Don't Know ~ 9% (-1)

Excluding Don't Knows (/ vs 2014):
Yes ~ 52% (nc / +7)
No ~ 48% (nc / -7)

"I'm not in denial, I'm in open rebellion" damn that quote goes hard
“I am so bored by AI. One of the things I love about the theatre is AI can’t do it.”

Ethan Hawke is a dude 👌🏻

Spent a day off work watching Daisies, maybe the most day-free-from-work film of all time.

I suppose the dictators were never going to be satisfied with ruining just one group of people's lives.
As the trans community have known for a while now - the definition of activist is someone who dares to state they exist

Not every film can have the cultural impact of Annette
Seeing posts about how the Avatar movies have "no cultural impact" is kind of funny. I mean, I personally haven't forgotten about the weird giant blue people planet movie.

BBC News really pushed the possibility of Christy landing a Golden Globe nom, a film last in the news because about seven people went to see it

Baller move by Paul Dano to say absolutely nothing while everyone in the world talks about how great he is and drags up every awful thing Tarantino has ever said.

I'm not gonna come down on either side of whether or not S&S should stick to UK release dates. But because they don't enforce it themselves, some films on the quoted list were featured more prominently on last year's: www.bfi.org.uk/sight-and-so...

My first ever filmmaker interview!

Spoke to Heidi Ewing ahead of Folktales’ release in the UK tomorrow. Talked about today’s teenagers, losing your main character halfway through filming, and learning from the past.

Never ever thought I’d see John Mulaney live but apparently ticket queues don’t apply to my partner who just sauntered right to the front. Ahh!
