Happy Birthday to the late, great Gian Maria Volonté, born 93 years ago today

It's only April. www.hollywoodreporter.com/lists/notabl...

HELLS YES! variety.com/2026/film/ne...

So lovely to be back after 10 years… @truefalsefilmfest.bsky.social

So what happens to TCM now?

Come for the dopey banter, the unabashed middle-age film-nerdom on display, Jason "Crusher" Bailey's matinee-idol mug, and the fact that this podcast is based on the greatest book ever written. Stay for the neighing horses that accompany every mention of Cloris Leachman [cue neighing horses]... 📽️

SCREAM 7 [weary sigh 1000] 📽️ www.rollingstone.com/tv-movies/tv...

NETWORK doesn't officially turn 50 until November, but @criterion.bsky.social just put out a great Blu-ray of it, and I've been thinking about the movie a lot lately... 📽️ www.rollingstone.com/tv-movies/tv...

Digging this phase of Alexander Skarsgard's career re: roles that fall between socially awkward and straight-up asshole, and PILLION is a good example of that w/leading-man energy. Plus it answers the Q: what if Nora Ephron did a collab with Tom of Finland? 🎥 www.rollingstone.com/tv-movies/tv...

EXTREMELY great news out of #Sundance, easily one of the best things I saw at this year's festival, or really, out of any of the Sundances I've been at... (now do JOSEPHINE) variety.com/2026/film/ma...

Oh look, a thing that rules @filmforumnyc.bsky.social

So if anyone needs me, here's where I'll be for the next 63 weeks... variety.com/2026/film/ne...

I've often contended this is the funniest sketch I've ever seen, and easily one of the funniest ever to air on terrestrial television. Catherine O'Hara wrote this. I once told her I owe her royalties for the amount of times I've quoted it. www.youtube.com/watch?v=-dtr...

Please note FTR that I talked to Tamra Davis about THE BEST SUMMER, her #Sundance spirit-of-'94 concert movie starring the Beastie Boys, Sonic Youth, Bikini Kill and more, and did *not* quote the 'I Award You No Points' speech from 'Billy Madison.' Not even once. www.rollingstone.com/tv-movies/tv...

"Paul Thomas Anderson and Jonny Greenwood have long been a great match. Now they seem to be operating on a single wavelength. Giving the composer an Oscar for his contributions to the form is long past due." — @rollingstone.com's @davidlfear.bsky.social www.rollingstone.com/music/music-...

Halfway though #Sundance 2026, highlights so far: JOSEPHINE, CLOSURE, ONCE UPON A TIME IN HARLEM, BROKEN ENGLISH, THE HISTORY OF CONCRETE, PUBLIC ACCESS 🎥

JOSEPHINE is one of the strongest films at Sundance this year. www.vulture.com/article/jose...

THE DISCIPLE, the doc on Wu Tang affiliate Cilvaringz that premiered at #Sundance, offers an inside look at how a pet project turned into 'Once Upon a Time in Shaolin.' It gets ugly. www.rollingstone.com/tv-movies/tv...

Wrote about Mel Brooks, fart jokes, Nazi jokes, sick humor, showbiz timelines, the new two-part doc 'Mel Brooks: The 99-Year-Old Man' that premieres tomorrow, outrage as a tool for belly laughs and subversion, and also fart jokes. www.rollingstone.com/tv-movies/tv...

A sex comedy, a portrait of a once-in-a-lifetime dinner party, an Ethan Hawke survivalist thriller, a Brat Summer metafiction, a doc on Courney Love — here's what we're stoked to see at the final Park City go-round of the #SundanceFilmFestival. 🎥 www.rollingstone.com/tv-movies/tv...

On the eve of this year's Sundance, one of my favorites from last year's Sundance gets a theatrical run. SEEDS finally opens at @filmforumnyc.bsky.social. It's the sort of doc that makes you feel lucky to have spent time with the people in it. www.rollingstone.com/tv-movies/tv...

Liked 28 YEARS LATER: THE BONE TEMPLE. *Loved* what Ralph Fiennes is doing in it, and how Kelson gives him the chance to play to his strengths, and deepen and enrich the franchise as a whole, while dancing with a half-naked 7 ft man to Duran Duran. 10/10 there. www.rollingstone.com/tv-movies/tv...

A spoiler re: my interview with Paul Feig, amateur charmer, professional comedy legend, tippler extraordinaire and director of the exquisite gothic trash that is THE HOUSEMAID: We drank martinis. And they were fucking awesome. www.rollingstone.com/tv-movies/tv...

3 hrs to showtime!

Formula for me to become a regular listener to a podcast: Expert who will make me smarter (often means rounder) on the subject... goes deep for 90 minutes or more... host excells at drawing out the guest but also has a strong POV... still an audio product even if dragged on to youtube... Yours?

From my man @bilgeebiri.bsky.social's great piece on movie marketing: www.vulture.com/article/movi...

I just think it’s so much cooler and more interesting to try to be the best audio show rather than the shittiest television show

Few things make me as serene, as centered, as straight-up happy as these annual @criterion.bsky.social Room Tone videos. This is my personal Wellbutrin. Happy Holidays. www.criterion.com/current/post...

So I talked to the artist formerly known as BoJack Horseman... www.rollingstone.com/tv-movies/tv...

That. asteriskmag.com/issues/12-bo...

THE LAST OF SHEILA stars Richard Benjamin, Dyan Cannon, James Coburn, Ian McShane & Raquel Welch as pleasure-cruising dilettantes caught in a web of intrigue! See it Wed, Dec 10 in our new series THE GAME IS AFOOT: A Blanc Slate of Whodunnits, with intro by film critic @davidlfear.bsky.social

Co-sign. ‘Well, you’ve heard of them now, so you have no excuse’ — that’s always been the go-to response

Absolutely gutted to hear of Tammie Rosen's passing. She constantly made the impossible seem like it was the easiest thing in the world and opened so many doors for so many, myself included. My deepest condolences to her friends and family. www.indiewire.com/news/obituar...

I'm not one to rend garments in public. But Tammie was a friend for well over a decade, she was truly the best at what she did, I loved her dearly as many of us who attend festivals and rely on smart people like her, and the loss feels unfathomable right now. variety.com/2025/film/ne...

Listening to FLY ON THE WALL re: #SNL 1st ballot Hall of Fame: I'd go S1 cast, Murray, O'Donoghue, Shuster, Murphy, Piscopo, Lovitz, Carvey, Hooks, Hartman, Myers, Farley, Ferrell, Poehler, Fey, Maya, Wiig, Keenan, McKinnon, Hader, Armisen, Sudekis, Forte, J. Downey, Mulaney, McDonald, Lonely Island

Have been a fan of Joel Edgerton since THE SQUARE and ANIMAL KINGDOM, and he's one of those guys who, when you see his name in the credits, you go, Ok well at least *he's* in this. But TRAIN DREAMS felt like he'd switched gears on something. Turns out he had. 📽️ www.rollingstone.com/tv-movies/tv...

ZODIAC KILLER PROJECT is not just an autopsy of a fail; it's a funny, side eye look at the whole True Crime Industrial Complex and how formulaic it's become. Great doc for those who love incriminating montages. 📽️ www.rollingstone.com/tv-movies/tv...

Was wondering what that faint din I heard in NYC yesterday afternoon was, and it turns out it was my beloved My Bloody Valentine playing in Dublin (anyone who's seen them live will 100% get this joke) www.rollingstone.com/music/music-...

As bleak as this situation is--and hoo boy is it--it's heartening that brilliant people like Alissa are at least thinking about the problem

There will be bass drops. Oliver Laxe's SIRAT is out in NYC now, coming soon — or at least one prays on bended knees it will! — to a theater near you. One of the few movies that felt like it was already a cult classic as I was watching it. So fucking good. 📽️ www.rollingstone.com/tv-movies/tv...

Some questions about KEEPER, the latest magnum opus of Cake Horror 🎥 www.rollingstone.com/tv-movies/tv...

Just watched an ad during a 100-second ad break on a streamer — let's call it Paramount + — while watching a movie, that talked about how you shouldn't have to sit through all those ads when you go see movies at a theater so go to this particular chain of theaters. And they say irony is dead.

Come for the Cloon. Stay for the Sandman. JAY KELLY, hitting theaters Friday, on Netflix Dec. 5th. You can wait for the streaming on this one. This has been a public service announcement. 🎥 www.rollingstone.com/tv-movies/tv...

One of my favorite movies of the year-slash-decade is now in theaters — and this really is a see-it-in-theater-if-you-can experience. You'll be blown away by Joel Edgerton and emotionally bowled over no matter what, though. (Hits Netflix 11/21) TRAIN DREAMS 🎥 www.rollingstone.com/tv-movies/tv...

See Glen Run. Edgar Wright's THE RUNNING MAN is a faithful adaptation of the novel, and a prime example of why what started as a repository for Bachman-King Overdrive now plays as subversive AF 📽️ www.rollingstone.com/tv-movies/tv...

BOTD Alain Delon!! MCCT5: 5)Purple Noon 4)L'Eclisse 3)La Piscine 2)Mr. Klein 1)JPM x3: Samourai/Circle/Flic More: @selfstyledsiren.bsky.social: www.rogerebert.com/tributes/in-... @davidlfear.bsky.social: www.rollingstone.com/tv-movies/tv... @christinalefou.bsky.social: mubi.com/en/notebook/...

SENTIMENTAL VALUE is Exhibit A for saying Renate Reinsve is canon-worthy, Stellan Skardsgard locking down éminence grise GOAT status, Elle Fanning being one of the best listeners on screen today and Joachim Trier summer lasting into the autumn months 📽️ www.rollingstone.com/tv-movies/tv...

There's a 50/50 chance you will love or hate DIE, MY LOVE. What Jennifer Lawrence is doing in the movie, however, is kinda awe-inspiring. This isn't performative punk-AF style bad behavior. This is a 100% free performance. www.rollingstone.com/tv-movies/tv...

A review of PREDATOR: BADLANDS, which — and I can not emphasize this enough — is not to be confused with 'Predator: Jungleland,' 'Predator: The Promised Land' or 'Predator: 10th Avenue Freeze Out' 📽️ www.rollingstone.com/tv-movies/tv...

So NOUVELLE VAGUE hits select theaters today (before hitting Netflix on 11/14). It's cinephile catnip www.rollingstone.com/tv-movies/tv...
