Los estadounidenses y europeos hicieron un escándalo por una película que ni existe, The Day the Clown Cried, de Jerry Lewis, por ser una comedia del Holocausto. ¿Por qué creen, entonces, que un francés puede hacer lo mismo con las heridas de México y hasta lo premian? Por colonialismo

KNEECAP, one of my favorite movies of the year, is streaming on Netflix now! It’s Ireland’s Oscar entry & it’s a propulsive, anti-colonialist music-driven comedy. I reviewed it for Variety and interviewed the band and director Rich Peppiatt for NYT. I’ll put links in the thread.

Silvia Pinal has died. One of the brightest most versatile stars in the history of Mexican cinema. Her work with Luis Buñuel in VIRIDIANA, THE EXTERMINATING ANGEL, SIMON OF THE DESERT stands indelible. What a career. Descanse en paz una de las más grandes del cine mexicano.

Hello everyone! New to Bsky, new to the idea of using social media more often, but I'll try to use this for most of my interest including but not limited to: computer science education #csed, filmmaking #filmsky, music (banda sinaloense, jazz, etc.), among other things!
