Celebrating the arrival of autumn with the glorious Liv Ullmann, photographed by Philippe Le Tellier in 1969.
Mangrove (2020) part of Small Axe miniseries One of the best courtroom drama, of recent years at least. It's not necessary saying how it blows The trial of the Chicago 7 out of water, but I'll say while completely different movies it's has a better portrayal of a black revolutionary group than OBAA
Still thinking about the 4th dream in Resurrection (2025). Bi Gan got into my brain circa 2018 and made a film out of some of my obsessions of that time (The Addiction, Noè, WKW, Rebels of the Neon God, Only Lovers Left Alive)
Cool to see Johnnie To giving Lee Chang Dong the Grand Jury Prize Silver Lion at the Venice closing ceremony.
Paz de la Huerta in Gaspar Noe's ENTER THE VOID (2009) She was BOTD in 1984
Rock your heart out! 🎸❤️🔥 LINDA LINDA LINDA from Nobuhiro Yamashita is now streaming on the Criterion Channel!
Lemming (2005) is funny because at some point it turns into The Conversation but with an hamster instead of bugs. It's relatable because I too would get paranoid if I wasn't sure of being worthy partner of my wife Charlotte Gainsbourg
'The General Zapped an Angel' (1970) by Dutch-Italian artist Karel Thole
Inazuma (Lightning), 1952, Japan - by director Mikio Naruse
He had more iconic roles in other films, but Ben Gazzara for me will always be the blind man who wouldn't acknowledge his blindness while the whole town went along with it in Dogville, and Vincent Gallo's father in Buffalo '66. What a guy. He would bring so much to any role no matter how small
Remembering the great Ben Gazzara, born on this day in 1930. 🖤 Watch him in John Cassavetes's 1970s masterpieces THE KILLING OF A CHINESE BOOKIE and OPENING NIGHT on the Criterion Channel.
This already has me finding parallelisms and the film is not even out yet lol Three Colours: Blue - Krzysztof Kieślowski Possible Love - Lee Chang-dong
Hell yes, I can finally watch Tropical Malady Syndromes and a Century is one of the best movies of the century btw
Some good news variety.com/2026/film/ne...
I'll have to get around A Book of Memories at some point Parallel Tales seems to be even more my thing but it just feels too daunting
🇭🇺 Hungarian author Peter Nadas, renowned for his epic surrealist meditations on the darker chapters of 20th-century European history, has died aged 83, his publicist told AFP. ➡️ u.afp.com/SVNi
I think we can all agree that after "No one wins. One side just loses more slowly - Prez" this is the best The Wire epigraph lol
The guy here kinda looks Basil Rathbone that had me wondering what Sherlock Holmes was doing on a Train in iron curtain east europe
Tonight's film
The episode of Nirvana the Band the Show where they spoof LOST and Matt is continuely flashbacking is genius lol and so 2008 that almost it hurts to watch
Longer videos? I can post the best trailer of all time then The Sopranos: Family Redefined
Nobody did it like Welles. I love how in Touch of Evil he only shot himself in low angle shoots just to make himself look fatter lol
Images - Robert Altman; or hints of 3 Woman (1977) Sharing the same editor, and with their fragmented guilty ridden leads, it would make for a haunting double bill with Don't Look Now (1972)
