Released on this day in 1993: CARLITO’S WAY.
I joined @hitfactorypod.bsky.social to discuss it as one of De Palma’s three inarguable masterpieces.
Along the way we talk about SCARFACE as a septum-gored DAS KAPITAL, “natural artifice,” and De Palma as our most underrated melodramatist.

struggled with Kore-eda a little bit...a filmmaker i found stuck in a dispassionate and unfulfilling middle ground between slow cinema's formal discipline and a mawkish dramaturgy.
NEW HIT FACTORY // The fine gentlemen of @podcastyforme.bsky.social join to discuss Hirokazu Kore-eda's delicate, understated AFTER LIFE - a meditation on death and the hereafter as well as a treatise on artmaking itself; how cinema reflects and retains memory. Links below.

sorry, i'm confused...did you get a nazi tattoo because you were drunk with some marine buddies in croatia without knowing what it meant, or because you "used to say and believe things that today [you] find abhorrent"?
If they thought that any of this would stop us or deter us: they clearly don't understand our movement, and they don't understand Marines.

This site would actually be better if it had more voices from across the political spectrum, and efforts to push out right wing accounts are only entrenching Twitter/X's dominant position in the political discourse.
