“I don’t want to go back to La Boca, and I can’t in good conscience recommend that anyone else eat there.” A wonderfully-written review of a very good restaurant is one thing, but a wonderfully-written review of a very bad restaurant is something else all together. Bravo,

La Boca Is All Smoke, No Fire
The Argentinean chef Francis Mallmann is notorious for his love of cooking over open flames. With his New York début, he fizzles out.

Saraband (2003) is beautiful. It isn’t perfect, it isn’t as tight as a younger Bergman might have directed it. At the same time, it’s more sentimental than an earlier Bergman would have allowed, and for that I am actually grateful. This story, these characters. They deserved this returning.📽️

After the strange severe right-turn he did with the rather horrific and mean-spirited Of The Life of the Marionettes, a movie that’s sort of a sequel to Scenes from a Marriage, it’s wonderfully reassu...

time to revisit some emily lore: I used to run social for PRH, and my now-husband used to run social for Melville House, and sometimes we would banter and flirt from our respective professional accounts (it was the early days of ~weird brand twitter~ and our bosses weren't watching too closely)

Just got an alert that ICE is showing up today in Park Slope. I have a feeling that their presence is going to grow quickly in retaliation for Mamdani’s win. Chicagoans have learned a lot. I have to think ppl have put together good resources to post about how to effectively resist them?

Sentimental Value is the kind of film Ingmar Bergman would be making in 2025, a story centered somewhat on a film director (named Borg, but let’s be honest, it’s Stellan Skarsgård playing Bergman) trying to make the kind of film Bergman would make in 2025. 📽️

this is very funny, but to be earnest for a moment: the same guys setting $10M on fire here are the ones who can’t stand the idea of buses being free, of rent being affordable, of anything at all being easier for all the people for whom $10M would be an unimaginably transformative amount of money

Mamdani hasn’t addressed supporters yet — but posted a video to social media with a straphanger-eye-view of subway doors opening on City Hall station (BMT, not IRT) A voice-over says “The next and last stop is City Hall.” (An announcement that would be true for IRT service but not the BMT)

Eight months ago,

and I stood on street corners in the UWS on a cold Sunday and asked people if they thought they deserved a better (hotter) Mayor. Turns out they did.
