Three years?!? Where did the time go....? Celine Song's "Past Lives" - truly, one of the most transcendent films thus far this decade so far. Can't wait to see what Celine does next....

Wait, are Honey Trap and Fifty-Fifty the same company?!?

Behold! It's part two of our three-part podcast about 15 Filmmakers Who Have Shaped the Cinema of the 21st Century. In this episode, we discuss Robert Eggers, James Gray, Ang Lee, Terrence Malick, and Nancy Meyers. podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/1...

Throwback to a classy "like."

Sometimes, nuance is overrated. This man is legitimately one of my favorite baddies. RIP, you cheeky little bugger 🤣

Hey, I love the theatrical cut. It's the version that moved me (and topped my 2019 best films list). Still, I want to see the director's cut one day. The possibility of an even better version of this great film is tantalizing....

Echoing “Intolerance” and “Resurrection,” “Silent Friend” extends through eras in search of the high of one life brushing up against another. foolswhodreammovies.com/silent-frien...

Please Cannes give James Gray a Palme eventually 😭😭😭😭

"Following" is, strangely, one of the most quotable Nolan films. "It's lunch!" "Somebody get me a tea towel." "Everyone has a box...."

Is it possible to make a good adaptation of George Orwell's "Animal Farm"? In his latest essay, @marinermo.bsky.social chronicles the story's beleaguered history on the big (and small) screen. foolswhodreammovies.com/some-adaptat...

"Little Odessa" is joining the Criterion collection! A day of much rejoicing for me and my fellow James Gray maniacs 🥳.

The reunion of Wow Platinum and Cesar Catilina! 😅 theplaylist.net/tomorrow-is-...

#InNolanWeTrust. It had to be said....

Apparently, James Gray's "Paper Tiger" started as a sequel to "Armageddon Time," then evolved into something more Hitchcockian. Can't wait to see this one....

Please call it "Rise of the Dawn of the War For the Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes."

In "The Chronology of Water," Kristen Stewart distills Lidia Yuknavitch's life one texture at a time: water, blood, flesh, fury. foolswhodreammovies.com/the-chronolo...

What's that? Could it be...cultural impact? 😜

"Hamnet" hive, we made it to $100 million globally!

"While most slashers have unlikable, unintelligent protagonists, 'Ready or Not 2: Here I Come' has Samara Weaving as a street-smart badass," writes Eric Ash. foolswhodreammovies.com?p=7793&previ...

@marinermo.bsky.social writes that "The Bride!" is "wild, unfocused, and utterly chaotic—and it may end up being one of my favorite movies of the year." foolswhodreammovies.com/the-bride-re...

And the Oscars will go to.... foolswhodreammovies.com/bennetts-fin...

This year, the Oscars are filled with intriguing, unpredictable showdowns...and @chancesp.bsky.social, Fools Who Dream’s critic-at-large, is back to take the temperature of awards season. soundcloud.com/bennettcampb...

Boo! Great film, deserves a physical release. Criterion, you're up! www.darkhorizons.com/the-testamen...

In "How to Make a Killing," director John Patton Ford (“Emily the Criminal”) combines the mythic piety of Francis Ford Coppola and the spiritual torment of Martin Scorsese. foolswhodreammovies.com/how-to-make-...

Always wanted to teach a course on Christopher Nolan. And have a photo of me gesturing in directorial fashion 😅. www.reed.edu/reed-magazin...

Another day, another twist in the Warners-Paramount-Netflix drama that threatens cinema and democracy. Filmgoers and film critics must make their voices heard about these dangerous developments in Hollywood and the nation.

It's like they can see into my brain. deadline.com/2026/02/chri...

The ingenious Andrew Stanton is my favorite Pixar filmmaker. I've been rewatching his films to get ready for his latest, "In the Blink of an Eye"...and I continue to be astonished by the intelligence, wit, and humanity of his work. Thank you for 20+ years of great cinema, Andrew!

The robots are out of control! Sam Rockwell struggles to sandbag a rogue AI in "Good Luck, Have Fun, Don't Die," the latest gonzo adventure from director Gore Verbinski. foolswhodreammovies.com/good-luck-ha...

Happy Valentine's Day from Fools Who Dream! This year, we're celebrating with Linda Ferguson's tribute to Bridget Jones. foolswhodreammovies.com/bridget-jone...

I've seen "Hamnet" more times than James Cameron. But he's a busy guy 😆 screenrant.com/hamnet-movie...

In "Send Help," director Sam Raimi (the "Spider-Man" and "Evil Dead" trilogies) once again tests the limits of character likability. foolswhodreammovies.com/send-help-re...

Thanks to recent events, Portland will now be known to the rest of the country as "that city near the Lake Theater" 😁.

Rewatching the Trek movies...and getting pissed that this great crew is being retired. Such a pity. They had at least 3 more movies in them.

Hmm. I'm an Eragon devotee (go ahead, ask me my true name), but can the series be successfully adapted for television? My fear is that the minute you take it beyond the page, it loses a certain texture and seems like generic fantasy (the 2006 movie proves my point). deadline.com/2026/02/erag...

For the last (I hope) time, "The Odyssey" has sirens and a freaking cyclops. It's mythic fantasy, not a historical document.

It tends to work out well when Christopher Nolan casts musicians. Just sayin'.

For the record, I was an Olivia Wilde fan even when it wasn't cool :) www.wweek.com/arts/movies/...
