NOEM: “We can’t trust the government anymore.” BASH: “You are the government.” NOEM: “Yes, that’s what I’m saying.”🤔 The only honest thing @KristiNoem said today

TAXI ZUM KLO (1980), Dir. Frank Ripploh, literally “taxi to the toilet”, about a free wheeling grade school teacher by day and a hyper amorous player off hours. Shades of ‘Looking for Mr. Goodbar’ but with a much happier ending. Hans Gerd Mertens plays peekaboo w/ the hero (Ripploh).

ice takes out ICE again 😬 🧊

New York City turned OUT. @handsoffnyc.bsky.social ✊❤️

I think it’s important to point out: ICE does NOT have the same authority as a police officer. They do NOT have the power to enforce laws, only to engage in their specific tasks. IE: they don’t do traffic, etc. impeding traffic is not a penalty ICE can enforce against

John Ireland and Montgomery Clift hold each other’s guns in RED RIVER (1948), Dir. Howard Hawks. The subtext becomes text.

VALLEY OF THE DOLLS (1967), Dir. Mark Robson, How to do a discrete nude scene 🎬 when you’re a major studio wanting to cash in on a trashy best seller but the Motion Picture Production Code isn’t quite dead 💀 just yet. The ‘R’ and ‘X’ rating would allow as much exposure as a producer wanted.

Joe Buck and Susan playing scrabble in MIDNIGHT COWBOY (1969) because Joe needs to relax. His bugle is a little nervous. 🎺

SUNSET BLVD (1950), Dir. Billy Wilder

I have a video essay in the new restoration of TAXI ZUM KLO, released by Altered Innocence. It was really fun to research and write this and I think you'll like it. There's also a great video essay by @schlockvalue.bsky.social (who produced the features!) Go order it. Now! Danke schön! Jetzt!

The only X-rated feature to win the Oscar for Best Picture. A year before Oliver became the only G-rated film to win an Oscar for Best Picture. The Academy had added new members by 1970 that were expressing the approval of the New Hollywood product.

Woof

So an officer has his phone out recording obviously distracted, shoots a woman and calls her a “f’ing Bitch” and they think that HELPS the case?!?

I LOVE me some Gojira!!! “Roar!”

Don’t forget

On the 5th Anniversary of the failed January 6th insurrection attempt, we’re reminded how fragile democracy can be. We must remember the darkness of that day so it’s never repeated. As history is rewritten by some, we choose to speak the truth of what happened.
