Lynne Ramsay is a generational -and national- talent and you should go see Die My Love.  (my first film watched of my first Inverness Film Festival attended!)

DIE MY LOVE is extraordinary. but its the kind of movie i warn people to be careful when they watch it bc this one sticks around

great piece!! people always act really shocked when they find out i didnt really like the mummy movies as a kid despite being obsessed with ancient egypt but like… those movies hold absolutely no joy, love, or respect for it, even as a deeply unenlightened child i could sense that

filed my fourth and (for now) final FRANKENSTEIN piece

DOWN CEMETERY ROAD might be cashing in on the success of slow horses, but i dont mind when it’s the sort of show that knows how to have fun

a dream commission: i spoke to @realgdt.bsky.social, jacob elordi, & oscar isaac about how the changes to mary shelley’s novel in their FRANKENSTEIN create a powerful, deeply intimate form of adaptation

Having a kid with significant disabilities in Gaza is so hard but on top of that Qamar also has toddler twin boys- the need for food and a warm place to stay is high for this family

I've waited my whole life to hear a New York mayor say things like this

Can’t stop thinking about all the robber baron fucks that held secret meetings and spent MILLIONS AND MILLIONS in bribes and campaign investments and attack ads and media manipulation trying to tank Mamdani currently having the dawning realization that their money is completely and utterly useless.

elle fanning in PREDATOR: BADLANDS is playing sort of a reverse david/walter situation and as the leader of alien covenant nation id just like to say… very good yes

An absolutely beautiful piece. A must-read for Frankenstein fans.

thank you for all the support; the statement from our union is now live here with some more reporting. now that this is public I can confirm that the majority of today’s layoffs were women of color. there are no longer any Black women working at Teen Vogue.

i have an interview piece about a certain literary adaptation out tomorrow that i am very nervous/excited to share, it means a lot and i hope people like it

I’m Azooz 16 years old My father and several family members were killed in the war, our home and school destroyed, and now I’m supporting my family alone Your donation can buys me books, supplies, bringing me one step closer to the classroom & future tinyurl.com/azooz9

A trio of prisoners, held on remand in the UK for alleged offences relating to Palestine Action activities, have launched a hunger strike over what they describe as "systematic abuse" by prison authorities.

watched PALESTINE 36 over the weekend. feels monumental to see a film made with this much epic scope and aesthetic richness about what, for us right now, in the face of this genocide, is one of the crucial points in world history

Hello, I’m from Gaza. We’re living through hell homes destroyed,memories erased,loved ones gone. Even the innocence of our children has been shattered. Every bit of help—even a small donation—could save a life or rekindle a flicker of hope. 👉 gofund.me/0fa0750c Thank you for remembering Gaza 😢🙏

We need to put pressure on our governments to pressure Israel to let this money go to Palestinians of Gaza. People from around the world donated millions of dollars to thousands of global organizations and none of it has made it to the people it was meant for

ngl i think it’s telling that film people are always posting cute little jokes about “xyz” coded character being autistic but one of the major festival movies this year has an explicitly autistic character played by an autistic actor and suddenly no one has anything to say

About 40 international humanitarian organizations, including Doctors Without Borders, Oxfam, and the Norwegian Refugee Council, accused Israel of obstructing humanitarian aid to Gaza, warning that these restrictions are worsening the humanitarian crisis affecting over two million Palestinians.

My contributor copy of the Maiku Hama Trilogy from @thirdwindowfilms.com! For this limited edition boxset, I wrote the accompanying booklet, discussing these cool as hell private-detective films in the context of Kaizo Hayashi‘s other postmodern works (e.g. TO SLEEP SO AS TO DREAM, CIRCUS BOYS).

off to see BUGONIA again today so this beautiful little press drop was perfectly timed. i can’t wait to wear my lovely new human hat while i enjoy popular human activities like eating and meeting up with friends 🐝

spoke to yorgos lanthimos & will tracy about autistic representation in BUGONIA. it was refreshing & weirdly healing to hear one of my favourite artists talk about it in such a normalised, non-stigmatising way

When children going missing from Home Office and local authority care was flagged couple of years back #r4today presenters uncritically repeated claims children were "voluntarily trafficked". It was an angle used by politicians, and still the idea of protecting kids is dismissed as a "pull factor"

hope everyone had a good halloween 🖤

thought BUGONIA was an alchemical wonder. yorgos lanthimos’s darkest and most timely film

extensively teasing your monster doesn’t really work when we’ve already spent two movies with the clown, WELCOME TO DERRY

low-key an embarrassing experience to put on an entire halloween costume only to realise all the trains are cancelled and you can’t actually make it to the event

the joy of kelly reichardt taking on the heist movie in THE MASTERMIND - beautiful and unpredictable in so many ways!! love how josh o’connor increasingly plays slightly against type, it’s very effective

SPRINGSTEEN: DELIVER ME FROM NOWHERE oversimplifies both the album nebraska and childhood trauma

"There is no American media institution more influential than the New York Times." "The politicians who vote to ship 500-pound bombs to Israel do not read emails from their constituents. They read the Times." "We demand that the Times take accountability." #USA #Gaza #Palestine #Israel #Genocide

the exquisite relief of finishing a halloween costume and realising it does in fact look like the thing you wanted it to look like

i really don’t agree with the idea del toro softens the creature in FRANKENSTEIN. his rage is comparable to shelley’s iteration, it’s just more focused in its expression. there’s no one thing the novel is ultimately about. there are many complex ideas at work and also a great amount of pain.

i really want to ask guillermo del toro if he likes the alien prequels & views them as a retelling of frankenstein like i do but im too scared he’ll say no

think ROOFMAN really benefits from being a derek cianfrance film (just the right amount of depressing)

i think AFTER THE HUNT has some very interesting things to say about the ethical frameworks we build ourselves and what they look like in practice but… it’s a guadagnino film!! it feels half as provocative as it should be

I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Maram. Maram is just 20 years old and was in secretarial school before this started. She is mainly trying to help her sister Sabreen who has four children, 7 year old twins Osama and Jana, Khetam (Tota), 5 and a baby boy born today!

MR SCORSESE does a wonderful job of persuading the people who will never watch it (ah well)
