Got to see Gus Van Sant IRL ✨

Dead Man’s Wire crackles with capitalism, rage and justice.

Bill Skarsgård and Al Pacino bring sly comedic flair, Coleman Domingo spins fire on the morning airwaves and Myha’la commands the screen as the reporter who won’t be silenced.

My notes from the 27th Thessaloniki International Documentary Festival for the BFI. Excluded are Christopher King & Maia Lekow‘s brilliant film How to Build a Library + Havana Marking’s bold documentary Undercover: Exposing the Far Right, which I sadly saw later.

I loved Asif Kapadia’s new genre-defying film, 2073. I loved it because it shows how close we are to a disaster created by tech billionaires who are on track to become the world’s first trillionaires (while the rest of us advocate our rights to worldwide health and peace).

Congrats to the BAFTA winners and nominees, especially to all behind EARTH MAMA and 20 DAYS IN MARIUPOL, and Da’vine Joy Randolp – well deserved. Also, POOR THINGS love! Special mentions (from me) to Molly Manning Walker for her brilliant debut nom and Sandra Hüller.

I'm new to Bluesky and in my mind is Jean Cocteau who after being asked what one thing he would carry away from a burning house, he replied, “the fire.”
