I actually don't want to say much about the later parts of the movie. No spoilers here. Like I said, perfectly paced buildup leads to a key turning point, and BAM! Once things really get started they don't stop until the very very end. Oh and see it in theatres. Audience reactions are just the best!

And books have been written about how American music was truly shaped by innovative, groundbreaking black musicians. But I don't think I've seen or heard it so powerfully communicated as it is in Sinners. This was my favorite scene in the movie, and I haven't even gotten to the vampires!

But not before, right in the middle, we are given a sequence that is the most beautiful and inspiring meditation on music and culture. The movement and connection and emotion of this scene left me in awe. Future film classes may well use it as an example of the power of music and dance in film.

Everything about the film was practically perfect, no notes. The first part of the movie is a lot of setup, and feels more like historical drama than anything. But the superb pacing guarantees that nothing drags as we build up to the moment when the tone shifts into full on horror.

Unshackled by anxiety? What's that like?

I've had that envelope on my wall for a few years, so when I saw the new postage stamp, I knew it would be a perfect Haring paring!
One day I'd like to have something that came from his pop shop. But I think this postage collection is fairly evocative of the ephemeral nature of the art and artist.

According the ebay auction I bought it from, that rubber stamp commemorating 20 years since the Stonewall Riots was only available at one NY post office for a very limited time in 1989. The cachet itself was also designed by Haring for the 1985 International Youth Year.

I haven't heard one of them demand that the Sermon on the Mount, the Beatitudes, be posted anywhere. 'Blessed are the merciful' in a courtroom? 'Blessed are the peacemakers' in the Pentagon? Give me a break!"

You're better off without it. The whole situation is just being used as a propaganda scheme. I feel for the people who are getting screwed out of their income though.
