My thoughts on FRANKENSTEIN: "Guillermo del Toro’s Frankenstein revels in the mythological diorama that Shelley gives to him, where grand (if familiar) ideas clash, where awe meets awful violence, where humanity meets God meets the demonic."

Frankenstein: A Modern Re-Retelling — micah rickard

Movie review of Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein starring Oscar Isaac and Jacob Elordi, an visually grand adaptation of Mary Shelley's novel

My review of Kelly Reichardt's THE MASTERMIND, which is all about "the consequences of following dreams that haven’t really been thought through... It’s also the coziest movie of the year."

(Plus a brief, surprisingly fitting detour to Paris)

I thought it was nice for Paris to have so many homages to Kieslowski scattered about. A bit of an odd choice, but a really moving one

Really interesting take (that makes a lot of sense for del Toro). I'm looking forward to watching it in the next week

This movie just looks so cozy. A great time from the moment the score kicks in

That's twenty-seven flat-out murders. That's twenty-seven lives taken without even a semblance of a legal justification under domestic or international law.

Pope Leo quotes Hannah Arendt:

“The ideal subject of totalitarian rule is not the convinced Nazi or the convinced Communist, but people for whom the distinction between fact and fiction and the distinction between true and false no longer exist."

A tweet from Donald Trump that reads “Don’t worry about China, it will all be fine! Highly respected President Xi just had a bad moment. He doesn’t want Depression for his country, and neither do I. The U.S.A. wants to help China, not hurt it!!! President DJT”

The last movie I saw in theaters was OBAA. Today's docket is A HOUSE OF DYNAMITE followed by IT WAS JUST AN ACCIDENT. Such a slate feels very fitting of our relentlessly and cruelly political time
