Tees Is A Searing Critique Of The Indian State
Dibakar Banerjee’s unreleased film, Tees, is a scathing look at the idea of India and a red flag for the Indian censor board and the government.

Dibakar Banerjee's Tees, a searing critique of the Indian state, will never release. Subrat Beura and I wrote 3000 words on the film along with choicest Banerjee quotes from when he brought the film to Bhubaneswar.

Selvamani Selvaraj instills Kaantha with such propulsive force that it is impossible to look away. It's also the most gorgeous Tamil film of the year. The actors take care of the rest. Review,

The Girlfriend & The Quiet Collapse Of Desire
For a film about interpersonal friction between a deeply incompatible pair — where one love-bombs the other into submission — it fails to interrogate

That Aryna-Anisimova match was like a throwback to the best of Vika-Serena matches of yore. Incredible hitting.

In grand old 2025 is there a reason to be on bluesky
Violence is always unacceptable, and threats of violence have no place in public discourse. Our thoughts are with Charlie Kirk and his family.

I remember Indian Wells 2018 when Anisimova announced herself on the big stage and Osaka won her first title unseeded. It's 2025 and Anisimova beats Osaka for her second (back to back) Slam final!

Ban on-court coaching, but allow players to scream at their coaches in a non-tactical context. Only I can be trusted to save the noble sport of tennis
