Aw, this is nice. Loved writing this piece on LIFEBOAT for Paste. It was previously a Hitchcock blind spot and I had a blast digging deep with it.

w/Tallulah Bankhead, Walter Slezak ++
Starts with the bad guys committing shocking atrocities at sea. Hmmm.

Godzilla: From King of Monsters to King of Collabs
What does it mean when one of cinema's greatest symbols of atomic destruction becomes a global brand ambassador?

Revisited @brianduffield.bsky.social's SPONTANEOUS today. The film has become exponentially more profound in light of the world today. It's frustrations @ the "cosmic bullshit of the universe" reverberate and move me even deeper now.
Phenomenally lit, too (hard sources, YAY!) Incredible first film.

Almost as crazy, FIRST CONTACT came out November 22, 1996 and they STARTED shooting on April 8, 1996!
Always interests me to see dates on slates in behind the scenes footage to learn when things were filmed. This one for STAR TREK GENERATIONS, which opened on this day in ‘94, indicates they went way down to the wire when the ending was reshot.
