  1. They fired him for being dumb enough to put his real name on it. And poor citation.
  2. La Region Salvaje (The Untamed) - I facking loved this. Highly recommended if you fuck with older Cronenberg or Possession (Żuławski gets an in memoriam in the end credits).
  3. I wish cinemas would sell their own tickets online instead of redirecting you to Fandango or movietickets.com. Also what's the point of buying my ticket online if I still have to get it printed at the cinema. This stuff matters.
  4. Have you heard Intrigue: Murder in the Lucky Holiday Hotel from the BBC? Thought it was a v good true crime joint.
  5. Nice, tix acquired. And yeah, that Free Fire is a v disappointing turn for Mr Wheatley.
  6. Anyone seen The Untamed (La región salvaje)? I might try to catch it next week.
  7. I guess this is more promising than WWZ2. Looks like he's directing the whole season at least.
  8. Deep State Radio is good too. And The President's Inbox (really all of the CFR podcasts are).
  9. Film Comment - https://www.filmcomment.com/blog/category/podcast/
  10. They Live By Night - I didn't buy the central romance of this flick for a second, so I didn't like it as much as I'd hoped. Doomed lovers on the run+bank robberies should be right up my alley, but it never really drew me in. The Criterion Blu-Ray is v nice though. Might give it another look sometime.
  11. Tie Me Up! Tie Me Down! - This made an interesting dbl feature with Audition (1999). Still, I found myself losing interest occasionally and probably spent more time thinking about art direction and set dressing than anything else. The last scene kinda justified it all for me though. The Salesman - I really liked this, and didn't find the intertextual shenanigans as cutesy or distracting as I'd expected. I need to see more of Taraneh Alidoosti too. Laura (1944) - I have a blindspot for Preminger, and this should have been right up my alley. But it felt weirdly... intert compared to same-period Noir flix by Huston or Hawks (or Wilder). Probably try it again at some point.
