Looks like we’re building up to an all-timer of a lineup for Oscar gays whose truer sexuality is Best Supporting Actress.

I dunno, my most recent movie library acquisitions suggest I may have a problem loving bad movies too much.

If only Jesse E. could’ve found some way to muscle up over gay Bond, we might’ve had a 5-for-5 picture-actor correlation. Alas, I think we get parity this year, with Kidman being the odd one out in her corner. (To underline, I still have no idea who’s winning actress this year.)

Come to think of it, it DOES feel like probably about 10 years ago when I realized QUIZ SHOW was robbed.

After strongly aligning last year, @slantmagazine.com and @filmcomment.com.web.brid.gy’s year-end polls are far more divergent in 2024.

Not the NYT layout team subtly shading Netflix’s notably pink-and-green EMILIA PEREZ “for your consideration” ad.

I know the end of this skueet is likely an autopost/metadata fail, but it with astonishing accuracy mimics the exact point in movie awards season when the mid-to-uberlocal corners start tripping over themselves to say the same 7 titles over and over again

Nobody does it better (the "it" being making fun, interesting, infuriating, engaging lists, which is of course extremely meaningless)

AMERICAN MOVIE (Chris Smith, 1999) “I'm thankful I won 50 bucks the other day, thankful that I won another ten dollars today, and I'm thankful for all the food that I've been eating, you know, around Thanksgiving time.”

THE HOLE (Tsai Ming-Liang, 1998) Strange to feel so nostalgic on this waning side of a pandemic (and waxing side of climate calamity), but art-gay flexes are both timeless and eternal.

THE GIRL FROM CHICAGO (Oscar Micheaux, 1932) I suspect WITHIN OUR GATES is the "correct" choice when it comes to Micheaux, but I can't help but be inspired by every single uncanny aspect of his early talkie.

3 WOMEN (Robert Altman, 1977) It's become less controversial to say this of late, but I prefer this immensely to either PERSONA or MULHOLLAND DR. (And to pretty much just about every other movie.)

LONG-HAIRED HARE (Chuck Jones, 1949) [s] Like one of my favorite tw**ts said, there's no way at least ONE of them didn't know that wasn't Leopold.

NEWS FROM HOME (Chantal Akerman, 1976) Like Stevie sang in "As," there's a lot of "in it but not of it" floating around in this one.

DAISY KENYON (Otto Preminger, 1947) Movies by adults about adults for adults. I try to include ONE movie without farts in it on lists like these.

CREEPSHOW (George A. Romero, 1982) One of two movies I have large-scale tattoos built around. No, it’s not of Ed Harris’s signature funky noose disco dance move.

SUPPORT THE GIRLS (Andrew Bujalski, 2018) As flawless a dissection of the meaninglessness of the American work day as has ever been delivered. (And @nyfcc.bsky.social giving best actress to Regina Hall? Easily the best crix award pick since Eddie Murphy’s @nsfc.bsky.social win for NUTTY PROFESSOR.)

MS. 45 (Abel Ferrera, 1981) Early Ed Koch-era NYC-as-hell remains an all-time favorite genre, and this one has Mr. Met smiling through the ultimate Halloween “show, don’t tell” feminist, er, statement. What more could one want?
