Did a double feature last night with The Getaway and The Bank Job. Both are "heist gone wrong" movies, and both feature some KILLER character names—Doc McCoy and Terry Leather, respectively.

Had a chance to see #NoOtherLand— a vital, enraging film that captures the resilience of the Palestinian people under Israeli occupation. It’s a testament to the power of truth-telling and the enduring human spirit. It's the kind of movie that reminds us why cinema matters. Thanks for showing it.

Finally watched The Piano Teacher, which is staggering btw. Isabelle Huppert is a once in a generation talent, and the film's lingering camera grants the audience time to fully absorb the range of emotions she can convey with just a single microexpression. Such an arresting movie. That final shot🤌
