Intimidation, violence and murder is becoming more systematic in the targeting of Palestinian people in the West Bank. Israel hasn't followed through with a single prosecution. Lawless state. www.theguardian.com/world/2026/m...

This Venice Film Festival Special Jury Prize winner is playing @hotdocs.bsky.social cinema this Saturday March 21st! Such a fabulous film. Read my review @povmagazine.bsky.social 👇

Breathtaking & historic #Sinners performance from last night’s #Oscars (not my recording). One of the best moments that I’ve witnessed from the many broadcasts I’ve caught. My only complaint - not enough shots of #BuddyGuy & #BobbyRush: each a vital part of music history youtu.be/Vl1fj8O97cM

Canada’s #Oscars triumph means nothing if we don’t keep supporting our filmmakers. And right now, Mark Carney's social-media-easy support feels hollow. (And don't even start, Pierre Poilievre.) My morning-after Academy Awards take for @theglobeandmail.com www.theglobeandmail.com/culture/film...

Respond to this with an image from a movie that always cheers you up, but don't name the movie. just share an image.

We all need to talk about this and how we can stop it

Anyone interested in cinema infused with rich detail and emotional depth needs to go to theatres to check out Monica’s News - opens this Friday March 6th (and it’s Canadian! 💪). Read my review @exclaimdotca.bsky.social 👇

Still cherishing last night’s memories of Susie Eddie Izzard’s brilliant solo performance of Hamlet. A haunting vision that will reset your circuits. There’s an electric charge in her fusion of expert comedic timing with the play’s tragic elements. A must see! #izzard #eddieizzard #hamlet #toronto

Mega thread of all the #Sundance documentary winners! 🏆 Winner of the Grand Jury Prize for U.S. Documentary, NUISANCE BEAR by Gabriela Osio Vanden & Jack Weisman (they're Canadian!) is smarter than the average bear. 🐻‍❄️ povmagazine.com/nuisance-bea...

Beyond the obvious fact that censorship in art is deplorable, there’s a major question lurking here - why are we allowing rich people to decide what is art?
