Since the 1980s 'The emphasis in contemporary criticism...now foregrounds their modernity, and the self-conscious flair in which they invoke, investigate, and struggle with the artificiality and rhetorical potency of their chosen forms.'

In his confirmation hearings, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. told U.S. senators that he would not cut funding for vaccine research or change the nation's official vaccine recommendations. He did both. n.pr/46QDn9p

A very Happy 93rd Birthday to the great Kim Novak, who among other film, co-starred in my number one favorite film of all time - VERTIGO.

Jacobean horror...
Been thinking that I’ve been reading and watching horror, all of my life, and barely any of it really gets close to the depravity of the crimes outlined in the Epstein files.
People who make a living imagining the most depraved of human behavior, rarely get even close to what those people did.

🎬 Could we include Hitchcock among those Jacobean city comedy playwrights? 👀

City comedy is where it's at, though. Asking students to adapt the concerns of City Comedy into a modern setting is such a fun exercise.

The problem with Jacobean drama is that you can't teach incest rep in high school, so then no one produces Jacobean drama because no one has heard of most of it.

#7 Angel Heart is a 1987 detective noir/voodoo horror/Jacobean drama that got Lisa Bonet fired from The Cosby Show & was saddled with an NC17 rating by the MPAA (director Alan Parker had to cut 10 seconds). If ur local come watch it at Casa Video @ 8pm on 10/26, I'm making a flyer & everything.

The Shockers are English Grand Guignol - owing much to the horror tradition of Elizabethan and Jacobean theatre. Titus Andronicus is the theatre of blood. Horror shows were not an invention of the French - though they added many refinements.

Students are taking new measures, such as dumbing down their work, spying on themselves and using AI “humanizer” programs, to beat accusations of cheating with artificial intelligence.

🎬 Dark comedy is one other mergence of opposites that makes Hitchcock a Jacobean artist... ☠️ 😘
Today I watched The Alfred Hitchcock Hour season 2 episodes 19 and 20. Anyone for Murder? was a really fun dark comedy with lots of twists. Even if it was a very common theme for these shows. Infidelity and muder plots.
