This week in film 🎞️:
• Visually stunning — highlight: the last scene of Hamlet
• I’ll watch anything with Julie Walters in it
• A beauty of a film — fan of Paolo Sorrentino’s work ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
• Wowza — Took me way too long to view this masterpiece

RIP Robert Duvall. Loved his Boo Radley - without lines he brought power and emotion to the role. Notable on Broadway in Wait Until Dark (1966) and American Buffalo (1977). He used to stop by my dads' restaurant and did not want to be acknowledged. They accommodated him and he returned many times.

This week in film 🎞️ There’s no people, like show people! György Pálfi’s film feels as if Terry Gilliam were pushed to his absolute extreme. A Fassbinder candy-coated frolicking flick. Someday I’d like to see a production of Berg's opera Wozzeck.

Watching a fascinating interview with Dame Siân Phillips. A Welsh actor known for highly intelligent and fiercely commanding roles onscreen and onstage. Born in 1933. Married to Peter O’Toole for 20 years.

I, Claudius (1976)
Clash of the Titans (1981)
Dune (1984)
The Age of Innocence (1993)

This week in film 🎞️ A favorite Hedda Gabler film version. Peter Greenaway does it again ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. Unnerving flick about coping. Great nun performances.

This week in film: An epic historical drama. A shocking Clark & Korine partnership. Julie Walters for the win. A film that goes so deep it’s hard to keep your head above water.

Fave 4 Perfs: Dustin Hoffman, Chloë Sevigny, Janet Suzman, Julie Walters

Greenaway does it again! I found myself completely drawn into his world of the materialistic upper-class, where people have so much money they end up making the most outlandish requests just because they can.

🎞️ The Draughtsman’s Contract

Discovered the brilliant comedian Beverly “Pudgy” Wines yesterday. Compared to “Don Rickles” for her insult comedy. She was razor-sharp, quick and never missed a beat; I have no idea how she kept up!

Bold choices this week:
- Harmony Korine — brilliant filmmaker. Always disturbing, always real and always takes you on a journey.
- RWF’s last film. A visual feast.
- Delightful and hilarious. Every frame is a work of art.
- A crushing film.
