It's Kim Novak's 93rd birthday, and you should definitely watch Vertigo if you haven't before. Or even if you have! It might be *the* ideal film to watch on a Friday the 13th right before Valentine's Day.

A film about a failed lesbian actress traumatized by the casting couch dreaming herself into the lead role of a prime time soap opera where the director who steals the woman she loves has his movie taken away by the shadowy Hollywood elite who destroyed her dreams. Billy Ray Cyrus is also there.

In 2024, he praised the festival’s political identity: “The Berlinale has traditionally always been the most political of the major festivals; it doesn’t stay out of things now, and it won’t in the future either… I like the Berlinale because it always speaks up and says something.”
To say that the Berlinale has to stay out of politics is the biggest nonsense we've ever heard. To this day it is considered the most political of all the major film festivals.

This started as an essay on Oliver Laxe's Sirat, until in my research I came across this Thomas Merton quote, and my worldview changed. When you read or watch or listen to something dull and lifeless, ask yourself: What does it aspire towards? Where's the angel?

Well my point isn’t that it’s a great film, I liked it but I don’t think it’s a misunderstood masterpiece or anything. My point is that the reactions I saw online were along the lines of ‘what the fuck is this insane object it makes no sense?!?!’ and I think it’s a pretty normal movie
