Who wore it better? Is someone writing about how the iconography of films like PATTON get co-opted by Trump/Hegseth? George C. Scott would be rolling over in his grave, I suspect.

So many reactions to Comey indictment (& Trump firing prosecutor who refused to indict) call this worse than #Nixon’s #SaturdayNightMassacre during #Watergate. Reminder, our fun Watergate film 18½ is available now on @kanopy.com ! www.kanopy.com/en/product/1...

In my movies? I’d have to say my fave is the Portuguese version of “Brasilia Bella” playing on reel-to-reel tape, with the characters dancing Bossa Nova, in our film 18½ - available now on @kanopy.com in the US.
