hearing reports out of Japan that Tatsuya Nakadai has passed away at 92. RIP to a legit legend.
a bearded Tatsuya Nakadai in Harakiri on the left side of the frame, seen through the ribs of a parasol closeup on an older Tatsuya Nakadai in Heat Wave, face slightly turned (almost in profile but not quite) with a colorful stained glass window behind him young evilly grinning Tatsuya Nakadai in Yojimbo, to the left of a window belching flames into the top of the frame gorgeous closeup on Tatsuya Nakadai in Sword of Doom wearing a ronin hat, a wide-brimmed hat made of bamboo with a chin strap, the light filtering through it onto his face.

I love every time @pattonoswalt.bsky.social pops up on @trailersfromhell.bsky.social — I still have PALE FLOWER on the watchlist! — and I love seeing him give the spotlight to THE LAST STOP IN YUMA COUNTY. A must-see pulp twister and a fave from the last few years.

Great actor, great presence, and according to friends who worked with him, a great guy.
drewdietsch.bsky.social Drew Dietsch @drewdietsch.bsky.social · 10d
Always a welcome presence in movies. My recommendation is to see him as the villainous cop in DOBERMANN, a movie I discovered thanks to @josholson.bsky.social & @trailersfromhell.bsky.social.

RIP Tchéky Karyo

Where do I even begin? Guillermo del Toro @realgdt.bsky.social has created an absolute masterpiece. I only wish I’d had the chance to experience it on the big screen. The story of Frankenstein has been told countless times, but never like this.

A scary Jack Palance shines in I Died A Thousand Times, and Shelley Winters less vulnerable as his new love. A major Public Enemy may acquire a sense of soul and self-worth, but he sure ain’t got no hope for redemption. Glenn Erickson of CineSavant reviews:

I’m just saying, I directed a movie for basically no money that debuted in the 90s on rotten tomatoes and got distribution with no stars attached, I did not get a single call and couldn’t even find a rep as a director. This was not the case for any of the male directors I went to AFI with.
crobertcargill.bsky.social C. Robert Cargill @crobertcargill.bsky.social · 6d
She's absolutely right. As a producer with several films in development with female directors, I can say it is an absolute uphill battle to get execs to fund their projects. Great scripts are sitting on shelves while a generation of our most talented women sit idle.
