honest question - are Trojans renowned for their work ethic? I thought they were more famed for their ability to be duped by hollowed-out farmyard statues

“Hugo? Who’s he?”
apart from omitting the only ‘kids film’ Marty ever made, this is an amazing and enthralling five part documentary on the king of modern cinema
I want to rewatch his whole filmography now

I liked Lurker! Fairly familiar ground but has a nice 2025 edge. A bit All About Eve, a bit Baby Reindeer and, oddly, a bit Phantom Thread.

should have been a shorter summer! I found this a chore really. Demands a lot of the audience and maybe I just didn’t have the patience. Some striking imagery and a bit of a whiff of The Zone of Interest about it.

fucked up movie about a fucked up life that leans into some filmmaking cliches regarding memoir adaptation BUT I really liked it - best performance of Imogen Poots’s career as well

rewatching Citizen Kane again and it's remarkable how Kane, despite being unfathomably rich, makes it clear in his first scene that he wants to improve the lives of his readers, no matter the cost to his personal wealth
