The Skyhawk (1974), Knockabout (1979), The Miracle Fighters (1982), The Magnificent Butcher (1979), The Sword (1980)
Back in NZ now so I’m spending the day catching up with some classics. Patrick Tam has become a huge favourite this year, so I’m keeping his film til last

The Fall of the House of Usher (1928)
A short version of Poe’s story made the same year that Jean Epstein made his surprisingly proto-Peckinpah feature length adaptation

The Thief’s Wife (1912)
Ending my 2nd day in Madrid and I only have my phone to watch movies on, so I’m going with a silent short by Allan Dwan. This is from the second year of Dwan’s 50 year career, and was apparently a huge influence on John Ford

Ballerina (2025)
John Wick is one of the most consistently excellent action series ever made, so I can’t say I’m especially excited about the one where they finally said “What if we hired a back to botch this one?”

Moods of the Sea (1942)
More Slavko Vorkapich this week!
I haven’t had much time for movies lately because tomorrow I’m going Europe for a month, so I’ve mainly just been incredibly stressed about that. And I’ve still got 100 pages of a library book to get through

BULLET - "if you read this you are gay lmao"
1. "It, um, doesn't say anything."
2. "Transgender ideology. My old foe."

Frontier Pony Express (1939)
One of the eight Joseph Kane directed Singin’ Cowboy movies that Roy Rogers made in 1939. In this one he’s a Union loyalist pony express rider who goes up against a Confederate gang trying to use the pony express for their own means

The Kid with the Golden Arm (1979)
More of the Venom Mob from Chang Cheh, this time asking the question “What if Lo Meng had golden arms?” Fight choreography by Lu Feng, Chiang Sheng, and Robert Tai (the guy who claimed Lau Kar-Leung couldn’t touch his fights)

The Life and Death of 9413, a Hollywood Extra (1928)
An experimental short by director Robert Florey and cinematographer Greg Toland attacking the Hollywood system. Heard nothing but incredible things about this one
