A goodly varied crop!

BLUE MOON made Ethan Hawke just a little guy
WEAPONS made me want to start a “get off the ceiling” Letterboxd list
LA BELLE ET LA BÊTE was a wild ride, absolutely enchanting fairy tale stuff
KURONEKO was due a revisit for spooky season. Kitty!

I hadn’t seen this film until recent years, and this is my legitimate review

Welp, I’ve somehow decimated my back and I’m feeling down. Time to ice my back for 2 hours and get into my feelings

So AI is wrong 1 of 2 times when interpreting the news. A coin toss of accuracy. Using AI is now the equivalent of being the gas station attendent meeting Chigurh.

Happy Video Store Day to one and all! @baystreetvideo.bsky.social is helping me fill out the Criterion section of my shelf with some all-timers I’ve been needing for a while.

Big Coens rewatch continues as I fill in some blind spots.

Intolerable Cruelty was tolerable

Man’s title was misleading I saw BBT in every scene

O Brother rules, no notes

It’s very brave of me to post that I don’t love Lebowski online. But it’s just, like, my opinion, man.

Calmly awaiting her second checkup for the year as she descends into seniorhood, Scully is a vision of patience.

- Nirvanna the Band the Show the Movie
- Peking Opera Blues

Keeping things decidedly French these days

Learning about donkeys that shit rubies and gambling addictions with Demy

Hanging out with the devil with a quick jaunt to the French seaside

A good time had by all.

Second last day of TIFF and you know what that means: work has calmed down enough that I can finally go see my first TIFF movie.

I’ve been looking forward to this one for a LONG time! Side note: excellent cropping job tiff staff, just top notch.

Last four watched is a land of contrasts, thanks to Plane Movies

Good Morning Vietnam made me furious. Despicable filmmaking
Pretty Woman is fine. I have a mini-billiards table just like Jason Alexander
Demy continues to become a new fav with Lola
Sinners still whips

Revisiting 2 all-time favs, with Powell and Pressburger’s take on love and the afterlife and Albert Brooks’ take on Real Life

A fun Mexican dark comedy drama that feels like all the best versions of a prestige crime tv season packed into 2.5 hours

And Philip Kwok flipping out

As AI continues the to soak into the soiled mattress that is society, I’m counting down the days until my door starts threatening me.

Johnnie To never disappoints
First revisit of Minus One since theatres, still rules
George Stevens’ crossfades give me life
And I did some boning up on my Ethics

Pretty good!
