Bandcamp moving to Stripe. Unsure how this will affect adult creators on the platform, as there are some 18+ VAs that use Bandcamp (disclosure: I'm one of them)

Catching up on posting on Bluesky, and catching up with films seen at the cinema. Sadly, as summer approaches and the blockbuster season arrives, it can feel like the choices are restricted, but The Salt Path (2024) was a needed alternative.

Well, fuck.
A Bangladeshi lesbian friend has been issued an ultimatum on marriage by her family. She was, in the past, subject to religious conversion therapy to try to 'cure' her, and now will be married off against her will unless she can secure the funds and documents to escape.

I went to see Sinners (2025), with the sense from the trailer alone (and no other context) it was something special. Having never seen a Ryan Coogler film beforehand, that'll have to be rectified, as this is a horror film given love and appreciation for something personal.

Going to the cinema, I saw Sister Midnight (2024), which I knew was unconventional going in, but still catches you off-guard as a comedy about a woman domestic misery only to get to stop motion undead goats. That doesn't even spoil how that transpires, because that's a leap the film accomplishes.

Whilst not perfect for the first attempt - like trying to reduce the amount of salt - my first attempt at cooking Kimchi Jjigae (Kimchi Stew), something I went into with zero confidence, turned out to be something I was proud of and delicious.

As there were no new films over the last weekend I could practically see of interest, I took a chance on a retro screening one night, in this case of Steven Spielberg's Peter Pan reinterpretation Hook (1991). Never seen before, it was a throwback as the cinema branch called it.

Another film making its debut to Blu Ray, and one that many have been waiting to see a proper release of, The Mother and the Whore (1973) is three and a half hours long, but never feels like it was not worth it. Even without the shadow of May 68 in France, its emotional rawness lingers.

Whilst I am looking forward to seeing new releases at the cinema, I sacrificed one or two I had interest in to catch up with Luca Guadagnino's Queer (2024), which even had a trailer shown at my local multiplex but never appeared in December there at all.

Catching up with films released last year in Britain, Evil Does Not Exist (2023) continues my growing respect for Ryusuke Hamaguchi. It is a compliment to say this evokes the films I used to find on DVD from the late 2000s into the 2010s, in the World Cinema category, which always surprised me.

A film I wished I could own a HD remaster of, revisiting it yesterday, is Peter Greenaway's first The Falls (1980). A fictional three plus hour document of people with "Fall" in their surname affected by the Violent Unknown Event, which has turned them into immortals with traits of birds

For me, new Blu-Ray releases will count as with the cinema if they're films I've waited even a decade to see. Rampo Noir (2005), an anthology based on the work of author Edogawa Rampo, lived up to showing the side of his that inspired the ero-guro movement.

So like many, I begin my first cinema trip of 2025 with Nosferatu (2024). Something morbid, something creepy, something definitely unconventional and continuing last year's streak of Willem Dafoe just being a good luck charm for any film to succeed.

Decided over the last weekend to go through the first four Batman films, mostly because the first sequel is truly a Christmas film. Batman (1989) though is interesting as a film that was definitely made by committee with hindsight to Batman Returns, but feels different from film of decades after.

Watched The Ladykillers (1955) for the first time as MUBI have made a couple of the Ealing Studio films available. A pleasant reminder that even quaint British culture joked about criminals offing old women. Alec Guinness also should be the standard for prominent teeth acting.

Hearing of The People's Joker (2022), in mind that all its buzz is handicapped by the lack of availability in the UK, I was still able to see the film and, yes, there's something glorious in a glib meta-personal tale with carte blanche to take the DC comics symbols and spin it anywhere it wants.

Catching up from Monday's viewing, it is on paper an insane prospect to have to do the following to see Guy Maddin's Rumours (2024) - wake up at 6.40am, get a bus, then a train for over an hour plus, and than a tram, all because your branch of multiplex doesn't show the film but another does.

Before it leaves MUBI, I caught up with Terence Malick's Voyage of Time, the IMAX version which despite its cosmic weight was actually a soothing balm for this mind. Maybe one day, with the feature length version that exists, we can get this on disc. Can Criterion?

Catching up with film viewing from this weekend, I revisited Peter Greenaway's The Draughtsman's Contract (1982), which was the first film of his to properly catch interest. A period drama, but fully his, obsessed with lists, and mixing the profound with profane.
