Fritz Lang's original Dr. Mabuse the Gambler. It's a towering effort that can only be achieved by hubristic youth that captivates beyond the limitations of silent film. Rich with personality and style, the script also pops with so much amorality that can still be seen in more comic booky cinema.

Been a decent week for music over here. Also, a good day for new releases. If you want a feel-good, weird-sounding rap album, I recommend Danny Brown's "Stardust," which sounds like a tortured artist finally seeing the light after years of conflict.

I was cleaning out folders on my computer today and remembering all the screen grab jokes I used to do on Twitter. Those were so much fun and I miss not feeling guilty when I did them.

Vince Staples' "Big Fish Theory" is a pretty good one. There's even a track produced by Sophie that has Kendrick Lamar on it.

Psyched to see that Sorry, Baby is now on HBO Max. Been wanting to check it out for a while.
I'm also partial to this poster, and I don't know why. I hope that cat is okay.

Anyway, for those interested in what I've been listening to...
My comments are that Emily Wells' score for Plainclothes is incredible, and I seem to be a softy for Olivia Barton's candidness.

Guess I could listen to this to ease the pain a little bit. Not my favorite show, but A Serious Man is on another level.

Also, thanks for the inadvertent shout-out to my old podcast Nerd's Eye View. We haven't done anything in nine years, but it was still a trip to hear you say those words on G.L.O.W.
