Before they leave Criterion Channel at the end of the month plz watch @sophyromvari.bsky.social’s shorts program. In less than two hours you can traverse a set of films every bit as perfectly able to conjure the past or take hold of the present from ephemera as the work of Duras or Hou Hsiao-hsien

The Souvenir/Still Processing #sidebyside @sophyromvari.bsky.social

There are currently only 22 films streaming on Netflix made before 1980 and not a single one made before 1960, with the oldest film on the platform currently being PSYCHO. I know I’m a broken record but: buy physical media, support your local library, etc etc

Not sure what to post on this site… everyone on here seems to be some kind of librarian

Okay fine.
