This is the film. Still in a daze since I just got out, but this is the film. See it in VistaVision if you can. The Vista gave out format punchcards too. #OneBattleAfterAnother

Much is made of "The Old Man & The Gun" being Robert Redford's "final film." But his cameo in “Avengers: Endgame” came after that. Which means, technically, that #RobertRedford's actual final film also became the highest-grossing movie of all time.

Battle doomscrolling by posting 5 small pleasures in life: 1. Babies 2. Cats 3. Dogs 4. People blowing past you way too fast in traffic who end up right next to you at the next red light. 5. A song being played on the radio you didn’t realize you needed to hear.

Somehow popcorn on a Sunday morning feels good at a place like this

I cannot think of the last time a film had such unanimous praise as it arrives. People are calling this the film of the decade routinely. I know hype is contagious but this feels different.

TRAIN DREAMS - One of the best films I've seen at the fest. Not just for #TIFF50. But in all my years of attending. Moments of pure visual poetry + an emotional story of grief, time, and the interconnected of things – how this one unremarkable life is a significant part of an incommunicable whole. 📽️

My Top 5 Films of #TIFF50: 1. TRAIN DREAMS (dir. Clint Bentley) 2. SOUND OF FALLING (dir. Mascha Schilinski) 3. IF I HAD LEGS I'D KICK YOU (dir. Mary Bronstein) 4. HAMNET (dir. Chloé Zhao) 5. BLUE HERON (dir. Sophy Romvari) Complete ranked list - letterboxd.com/jeratthemovi... 📽️

Today is the last day of #IngmarBergMonth! Massive thanks to all of you who followed along every day with my little known facts about Ingmar Bergman!

For Ingmar Bergman’s 60th birthday, his wife, Ingrid arranged for all 9 of his children to come to Fårö to celebrate. It was the first time every one of them had been together. They made it a tradition to reconvene on Fårö every year for their Father’s birthday. #IngmarBergMonth
