Just a reminder that at least 600 Americans were fired for failing to show sufficient respect after Charlie Kirk's murder.
utterly incapable of grace

God damn. RIP Rob Reiner. Director of a couple of the most perfect movies of all time. Always a very welcome presence as an actor. Nauseating news.

Was trying to think if there are any movies I feel this way about, and I think there are at least two: Don’t Let the Riverbeast Get You! (2012) and The Bellboy (1960)

I see your Schwartz is as big as mine. Now let's see how well you handle it.

Is Dick Van Dyke (100 years old today) the last living person who was a close friend of Stan Laurel?

Happy 100th birthday Dick Van Dyke. When they wheel me into the Soylent Green death chamber, this is what I want them to play as I slowly drift away. youtu.be/5DfCS08FsRw?...

Been doing a little research into the Attack of the Killer Tomatoes franchise and I've discovered that George Clooney often brings up his appearance in Return of the Killer Tomatoes (1988) in interviews as a joke. And I frankly think he needs to learn to have some respect.

Martin Scorsese once called The Bellboy (1960) "a virtual dictionary of visual thought." Most professional film critics have never said anything that I’ve thought about it that much.

On this day in 1978, we lost Edward D. Wood, Jr.

Excited for Public Domain Day. In a few weeks Animal Crackers (1930) will finally belong to us all. Captain Spaulding will finally be yours to do with whatever you want. You can fuck him, you can make him fuck you, you can make him watch you fuck. Nobody can stop you.

I am relieved that a priceless cinematic heritage that includes Casablanca, Unforgiven, and the films of Stanley Kubrick will finally be joining the same library as Red Notice.

Watching the Mr Scorsese documentary… wild that The King of Comedy - my favourite Scorsese movie, in fact quite possibly my favourite movie ever - was a gig he accepted reluctantly, hated making, and apparently still feels distant from. Well I guess he’s entitled to his opinion!
