I gazed into the abyss and the abyss gazed back over my shoulder.

Watched, The Thicket (2024).
Brutally cold, a bleak ragtag acquaintance alliance tale.
Left me warm.

Watched, Joker: Folie a Deux (2024).
Darkly torn and ragged musical with more than 'alf a fleck of brutal brilliance.
Wouldn't surprise me to find out tomorrow that I love it.

Right, coming to the end of sofa surfing Glastonbury and could quite happily never watch a guitar band ever again.

Watching Glastonbury coverage and waiting for the caption to come up on who the band are, simply to to add to my indistinct indie "rock" band list.

Watched, Us (2019).
Lovely family film superbly acted.
More laughs than I was expecting, little family ones but laugh funny and a twist big enough to make me want to watch the fucker again.

Watched, I Care A Lot (2020).
Social horror heist movie. Wow.
Ever wanted to root for murderous gangsters against the American care system then not, then find out it's all business and no people, well this is the film for you and I'm learning me.
Bleakest of fun.

Watched, Eureka (1983).
"Once I had it all, now I just have everything". Yep, it's all bright dark light stuff, with all sorts of under baked goings on and an over baked trial. Really liked the first bit and went along with the rest of it in a disappointed way, much like the premise, I suppose.

Watch, Fly Me To The Moon (2024).
Looks great, Scarlet Johansson is the film really... and Channing Tatum's t shirt tops. Advertising is legalized scamming.
I was charmed.

Power Of The Dog is on telly, the only Benedict Cumberbatch performance I like* and it's so fucking good, I was quite shocked when I saw it.

For Agnès Varda's birthday: I wrote a little thing about a brilliant piece of direction she gave to Sandrine Bonnaire for Vagabond. And she didn't go on and on about it. It was 6 words. I think it's instructive in re: what good directing of actors actually IS: www.sheilaomalley.com?p=155370

Watched, Fountain Of Youth (2025).
The nonsense's nonsense.
Would have been better fun if Krasinski and Portman swapped roles.
Guy Richie keeping up his action man Irwin Allen with money shtick.

It was a bit nip and tuck for a while but we managed to rescue 12th from the jaws of 10th.

Great final of the Pakistan Super League.
Momentum and tension swings and won on the second to last ball, can't ask for more than that.
