You've inherited a movie theater. What's your first double feature? 📽 🎞 🎥

In the coming weeks, we will be working our way through these two on the pod, examining the latter as an inverted response to the other. The journey is the same, but the path is very different. 🙌👁🙌
Poster for Alejandro Jodorowski's The Holy Mountain (1973), showing The Alchemist purifying two naked, shaved women in a fire stoked by stacks of money. In between them is a flaming heart with an alchemical diagram on it with an eye in the center. Poster for Phil Tippet's Mad God (2021), showing The Assassin, decked out in bulky, world war one-era infantry equipment, holding up a lantern as he traverses a grotesque landscape filled with unsettling monsters.

Tristan here. I want to share @thewarmvoid.bsky.social 's essay on TV Glow through a racial lens because it provides a radically different and important perspective that we did not touch on, explaining why black queer viewers might not view it as hopeful or helpful.
