I love vehicles driving over cliffs; if they burst into flames on the way down, all the better. Dean Cundey shot this fine example of the form within his first year shooting features.

Love when an obscure Canadian film from the '80s that is only available today as a VHS rip has gorgeous cinematography.

A nifty crossfaded match cut.
This is probably not a film deserving of its own overpriced special edition release, but as part of a collection, I think a good HD scan would rehabilitate its nonexistent reputation.

The plot is somehow both too simple and weirdly convoluted, and the dialogue doesn't pop like you'd hope, but there is fun business with character actor John Litel in a dual role as a mobster and his lookalike patsy, a deaf detective who reads lips with astonishing aptitude, and a surprising twist.

SEALED LIPS (George Waggner, 1942) Shot by master cinematographer Stanley Cortez the same year as THE MAGNIFICENT AMBERSONS, this low-rent, noir-adjacent crime yarn with only 37 views on Letterboxd deserves more engagement for its blocking and lighting alone

Spent sooo many hours playing this as a kid, never could beat it. A classic example of an NES game that is simultaneously a masterpiece and kinda broken

Anyone with TCM who hasn't seen FRISCO JENNY, it's airing 7am EST tomorrow. Directed by the great William A. Wellman, featuring a slamming Earthquake sequence, all sorts of tightly written pre-code intrigue, a powerhouse Ruth Chatterton performance, and a devastating finale.

Is it already a cliche to observe that THE WASP WOMAN is Roger Corman's THE SUBSTANCE? Good flick, undermined by several minutes of crummy footage tacked onto the beginning of the TV cut that most people are familiar with – theatrical is the way to go. Next to watch the Jim Wynorski remake

The most overlooked is INFERNO ('99) – Van Damme's Yojimbo, directed by John G. Avildsen (Rocky, The Karate Kid), a fun cast including Pat Morita, Danny Trejo, Larry Drake, Vincent Schiavelli, Jaime Pressly – Van Damme is more loose and charismatic than he'd been in years, & he has a threesome
