A few years ago, in what may have been my last enjoyable interaction on Twitter, I asked for movie recommendations. And yall brought the HEAT.
Let's do it here!
What are some all-time movies that haven't won big awards and aren't super well known that I need to watch?

Sorry, Baby absolutely rules. (So does last year's Vermiglio)
My final Directed By Women Viewing Guide of the year features 70 new releases (and restorations) that I have recommended throughout the year that you can now watch on streaming or rent, just in case you missed them during their theatrical release (plus some streaming films that bear repeating).
I feel like I've been here forever.

And my fucking ax
The Lord of The Rings movies were rated PG-13. By current rules that means that each film could contain one use of the word "Fuck". Which line are you altering to insert the most useful swear word?

Bring back "the thing you like is embarrassing trash" culture.
"Let people enjoy things" isn't the populist cri de coeur some people seem to think it is. It's giving everyone who gets rich making entertainment products for mass consumption cover to cater to the lowest common denominator. At least make them put some effort into taking your hard-earned money!

Hanging this in a public building funded by US taxpayers is among the most pathetic and embarrassing things I've ever seen.
WH added text to the pictures hanging on the wall… to sum it up: it is deranged.

Buddy, we've already got Werner Herzog, Steven Soderbergh, Agnes Varda, and Sean Baker. Keep your stupid robots away from me.
What gets me about executives at movie/videogame studios being taken aback at consumer backlash to AI is that they seem genuinely surprised that we like the human beings that make the things that we like

The best thing about the NBA Cup is how it is subtly helping to dispel the cynical, insipid, awful and increasingly rampant view the there is only a single goal of competing each season. There isn't 1 winner and 29 losers every year in the NBA. And how people talk about the sport sucks so bad now.

The human cost of Trump's gutting of USAID: By the time Tor Top’s mother was sick with cholera, the nearby clinic had been shuttered for weeks. He bundled her into a canoe & paddled toward the nearest hospital, 8 hours away. Less than halfway into the journey, his mother died.
