Mijn nieuwsbrief deze week gebruikt om mijn petje af te zetten voor Rob Reiner: readtheframe.substack.com/p/adieu-rob-...
Adieu, Rob Reiner
Met Rob Reiner verliezen we een absolute Hollywoodlegende. Ondertussen davert Tinseltown op zijn grondvesten en snakt de Vlaamse cinema naar een nieuwe adem.

When Rob Reiner was on his all-time epic run at the start of his career, he had an opportunity to read a script that was looking for a production partner, and he lost his mind for it. He decided Castle Rock had to have it, no matter what.

Een oeuvre dat wordt gekenmerkt door warmte, menselijkheid, een heerlijk gevoel voor humor en timing, een sterke acteursregie en classicisme met een eigenwijs kantje.
Rust zacht, Rob Reiner. Eindeloos veel dank voor Stand By Me, When Harry Met Sally, This is Spinal Tap, The Princess Bride, ...

Wat de lancering van The Best Immigrant me vooral heeft geleerd, is dat er nog wel wat werk is aan de media- en audiovisuele geletterdheid van veel mensen.

getting people back into theatres requires two things: a greater diversity of well-produced and marketed films, along with exhibitors working to build community around the idea of moviegoing
I am not sure how to get people back into theaters or if it's possible, but I do know that if the strongest remaining argument is "you SHOULD," or something about the holiness of the collective big-screen experience, the battle is lost. That has no traction with people who don't already believe it.

Immens veel zin om weer voltijds professioneel aan de slag te gaan, maar die maandenlange zoektocht begint toch wel een stevige tol te eisen. Zowel op vlak van energie als mentaal.

Eerste aflevering van This Is Not a Murder Mystery opgelegd. Toch even gefronst toen ze Lee Miller in 1936 aanspraken als war photographer. Ik besef dat de reeks een loopje neemt met de geschiedenis, maar dat voelde toch wat slordig aan.

1. Anti-trans outrage is losing its bite.
Last week, Elon Musk led a mass boycott campaign to get trans characters removed from shows on the platform.
Major conservatives joined in.
Now, we have the result: the boycott was a fizzle, and Netflix stock is up.

Nog eens mogen babbelen over film bij Vertigo. Deze keer ongeveer anderhalf uur geleuterd over het werk van Akira Kurosawa. Dat naar aanleiding van de vier klassiekers van de Japanse meester die momenteel in onze zalen draaien.
