The first half is way stronger than it ever has been and the 2nd half sure is meh but Latino Michael Parks saves the 2nd half and then its the same old same old. Emotionally boring as always with the daughter stuff but the revenge stuff is good. They got rid of the Klingon quote in the beginning.

There's always a new movie to be discovered, where ladies in colour-coded rain slickers with mermaid tattoos rob a bank by being so attractive that the staff just hand over the money.

Disappointed to see this. 160 union workers are fighting for a fair contract at Individualized Shirts, a US factory that makes high-end men's button-ups. The managers there have rejected the union's request for fair wages and health insurance. The union is asking for support 🧵

Got around to watching Polanski's adaptation of Macbeth. Only a dire land could bring forth such a dire tale. A lot more bloodshed and hopelessness than the other adaptations that I have seen so it wins out as possible the most faithful. Great stuff overall. Will see again soon.

Bros love to ‘splain all the things BIRTH OF A NATION allegedly invented (spoiler: it was nothing) but they sure clam up when I ask how many non-Griffith silents made before BOAN they’ve seen. They know everything but can’t remember that?
I’ve seen hundreds.

This was pretty great. Sure it walks pass a few movies that I would have liked to read more about but as far as memoirs go, there is a real gritty sensibility to each and every chapter. Will probably get the audiobook which has Ferrara himself narrating. That guy talking is always good.

Years have passed since last seeing this. A sense of worry coming over me as I had the thought it wouldn't be as good as memory serves. I was wrong. Still great!

watching Jimmy Cliff and the boys watch Django was always a cinematic moment that struck a chord every once in a while to make me smile. Rest in Peace Jimmy Cliff.

Billy Zane playing a true blue Jim Thompson character is the reason to see this since there's not much else there. Wish they had shot it in black & white. Might have given me enough of a reason to give it another watch.
