ghost of miles Posted March 28, 2022 Report Posted March 28, 2022 On 12/31/2017 at 11:51 AM, gmonahan said: Saw "Call Me by Your Name," and think it the best film I've seen yet this year (including "Three Billboards," which I liked a LOT). It's a beautiful movie, with a particularly wonderful speech late by Michael Stuhlbarg, one of my favorite actors. Highly recommended. gregmo Watched the first half last night, going to watch the rest this evening after work. It is indeed a beautiful movie so far! Quote
medjuck Posted May 1, 2022 Report Posted May 1, 2022 Got the Criterion version of Round Midnight. Watched the film and all of the supplemental material. Never liked the film when it first was released. Like it better now but I can't get past Dexter's playing. It does remind me of the last few Prez dates. Interestingly everyone interviewed in the extra material (Cuscuna, Gary Giddens, Maxine Gordon) admits that Dexter isn't playing very well but that it's ok in the context of the film. However everyone in the film keeps saying how great he is, not how great he was. One of the extras is a filmed performance of him playing "Fried Bananas" where you can see and hear how good he had been. Quote

JSngry Posted September 17, 2022 Author Report Posted September 17, 2022 Like No Maps On My Taps, it's a movie ostensibly about dance that is ultimately about something far more than just that. The line about the distortion of the hands with each generation...yes. Not just hands and not just dance. Recommended to any and all jazz lovers who have noticed the ongoing distortion of the hands.

Dub Modal Posted October 11, 2022 Report Posted October 11, 2022 Going the horror route these days: Candyman remake/sequel - a must see Hellraiser 2 (super weird and pretty disgusting but also silly and campy - tighter editing esp toward the end would have helped) Creepshow 2 - terrible House - campy and kind of funny but also pretty bad More misses than hits with 70s/80s horror camp stuff but 'tis the season.

Unfortunately I'm not surprised. I feel sorry for you and anyone fooled by this nonsense. Dennis Prager is a fucking joke as is every blowhard sitting on those plush leather couches. They don't give a shit about democracy, just how they can fleece gullible ignoramouses and line their pockets. You're doing their publicity for them homie. If they're not giving you a check then you're a sucker. Edited October 25, 2022 by JSngry removing overtly political clip Quote
