Couldn’t pass up an opportunity to catch a flick at the wonderful El Capitan Theatre in Hollywood, where an organist plays pre-show tunes!
Cotton candy-hued overhead lighting illuminates the historic El Capitan Theatre in Hollywood. On the stage, an organist plays movie and Disney-themed songs on a Wurlitzer Fox Special organ pre-show. A brilliant red curtain with “Tron: Ares” superimposed.

What a magical night! Grateful to receive an invite to an advance of “Warfare” at the Director’s Guild of America.
Intense. Gruesome. Maddening. A lot like the older brother of “Blackhawk Down.”
Thanks to @wgfoundation.bsky.social and @a24movies.bsky.social

Always a good idea to stop and listen to what the ocean needs to tell you.

Loved how “Conclave” carefully unspooled its secrets so that the ending felt naturally inevitable.

Just saw The Seed of the Sacred Fig. Easily the best movie I’ve seen this year, with a final act so tense one audience member let out a gasp when the lights finally came up
