The least likely piece of reporting from me: asking Severance creator Dan Erickson on the fan-theorized connection between SEVERANCE and Arsenal FC on behalf of British GQ. Confused?

Late to the party but had a tremendous time with LOVE LIES BLEEDING, which reminded me a ton of TITANE in its gnarly attention to dysmorphia and the violence we enact on our bodies. Plus DRIVE for clearer reasons of style and genre. So gross and romantic

One of my favourite shows of the year is spy thriller BLACK DOVES, in which Ben Whishaw plays a gay assassin and Keira Knightley is his glam partner-in-espionage. And it’s Christmas. What a present:

not to log on as the “hot frosty” defender but why are people writing it off as hammily written schlock. this is the entire point of “hot frosty.” every rote little gag is delivered with a knowing smirk. i mean, it’s a film about a hunky snowman. you don’t get more parodic. it’s called “hot frosty.”
