I was bluffing. Didn’t think it would actually get 20k. I don’t want to reveal my account and get roasted. Stop watching my movie.

Found the strangest set of Tim Roth stills for Made in Britain on Getty Images. They shot it like a promo for Growing Pains or Family Ties.

I can take people ripping apart Matt and Mara the very personal film that I spent years working on with my friends but if they come for my @letterboxd.social reviews of Charles Bronson impersonator Robert Bronzi movies it might break me.

Biggest laugh for me in Universal Language and maybe my favourite piece of art direction from any film in 2024 was the Rod Peeler "I never sleep" bench. Was amazed to learn from Matt that it's a real bench and Rod Peeler is Winnipeg realtor who receives a lot of prank calls.

I just asked chatgpt for "an idea for Kazik Radwanski film." It wasn't good or fleshed out. Just clumsily smashed the plot of How Heavy This Hammer and Anne at 13,000 ft together. Replaced skydiving with learning how to swim.

Those Gen Z film students came out to my Matt and Mara screening and of course they requested physical tickets to keep as a memento.

Spotted a very Hitchcockian cameo from director Tyler Taormina when rewatching Christmas Eve at Miller's Point.

Tonight at TIFF! Saw this in Paris last Nov and knew we needed it for MDFF Selects. A movie you need to see in cinemas but also a movie that needs to be viewed twice to really be seen. A Maximalist collage of family with over 25 characters and beautifully small moments of melancholy.

We all know boomers, gen x and millennials collect movie tickets. We all remember when Roberta got banned from MoMa for choking a staff member that ripped her ticket. We all know this.

We wanted Dorothea Paas in Matt and Mara but it didn't work out due to scheduling (I think she was touring Japan). But she has a really beautiful video for her song "Maybe I'll Fade" that is on the Maid of the Mist at Niagara Falls which feels spiritually connected to Matt and Mara.

Everyone that was at the dinner table during Deragh's music rant in Matt and Mara is a musician. Including the wickedly talented Jane Inc:
