I'm taking a bit of a break from shooting photos on film... It can be an expensive hobby when you're going through a lot of rolls. But I got a free expired roll of b&w Love Film 200 from one of my regular shops before the holidays and here are some of my favourites from that set. #believeinfilm

In the one bit of lightness I can offer you in these troubled times, apparently the Starz network's slogan has been for years, unbeknownst to me as someone who regularly watches and enjoys their programming, "We're all adults here".

ROGERS V ROGERS is @healey.bsky.social's terrific follow-up to THE MASTER PLAN, a witty docu-fiction detailing Canada's infuriating love of monopolies, starring Tom Rooney and Tom Rooney alone as various characters, including failson Edward Rogers and a regulator who tried to stop the Shaw takeover.

So much credit to prop master Craig Grant and his team. (That's him in the middle.)

Been a real up and down day... A lovely piece of good news followed by two disappointing rejections, one big (grant), one small (development program), then a Blue Jays win and a some points on the board for my Movies Fantasy League choices (owing to the Gotham nominations announcement).

You've still time to make it over to Revenge Of and get a copy of OUT OF ALCATRAZ signed by Chris Cantwell!

If you've got Prime Video, you can watch FROM during the month of October without having to subscribe to the MGM+ add-on. I directed episodes 7 and 8 of Season 1, and they're really good, for which I take only the credit I am due because everyone who works on the show is exceptional at what they do.

A photo I took in Santa Monica on Kodak Gold 200 film, a favourite of my most recent roll.

The new USPS stamp sheets Chris Ware designed are very nice and available to order online, along with magnet and jigsaw puzzle versions if you so desire. (My local outlet did not carry the stamps, but there are some that may.)

I'd seen ASH IS PUREST WHITE before, likely the only movie in this collection whose central character is a woman, and it's a veritable epic. Zhao Tao's performance is a tour-de-force, as a gangster's girl who goes to prison for him for 5 years and has to find her way in the changing eras of China.

I'm shooting on an old Canon A-1 with a 50mm lens I acquired from @gregpak.net (Thanks, Greg!), and the film used for all these photos (except for the Paris nighttime shot, which is Cinestill 800) is Kodak Portra 400.
